Momiji Capitol Hill

Momiji is always my go to spot for sushi. Their rolls are absolutely delightful, with fun and unique flavor profiles. The quality and freshness of the fish is impeccable. Our service is always quick, thorough, and attentive. While I do have a favorite area to sit in, the whole restaurant is uniquely divided up to have options for everyone, and each portion is fun! I will always always always recommend this to people!

huge delicious rolls!!! Was looking for a place to take my mom to meet up with my friend while we were in town. There was sushi for each of our tastes. I had the Mr. Perfect roll and the flavor was so unique. The calamari as an appetizer was incredible. Service was superb. The acoustics aren’t great, so it was a bit loud, in all parts of the restaurant. But the place itself was beautiful and there is this lovely Japanese garden in the center, with modern art on the walls. Overall would highly recommend.

I haven't been in a couple years. I remember moving here and this was a favorite spot of mine. More for the atmosphere and convenience (I believe). I stopped going often because there's so many sushi gems of a spot and this one was just dying out for me, I had to try something new. The sushi was always fresh and high quality. This time around it was just OK. Nothing special. Atmosphere still so great, just that they're always so busy. The service this time was quite passive aggressive and felt super rushed. I get that it was late in the day and felt like it must've been busier than usual, however didn't appreciate the service. Seattle service is almost always like this ... Very dry and not always kind. I'm used to better service in almost every place back home in southern California, so it's a shame when the price is so high and yet it's not my favorite experience... At least anymore

Been wanting to go for a hot minute, decided to go to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was so good!! First, what we went for the FOOD. The miso soup was so rich and umami. The seaweed salad decadent and rich with flavor. I got a capital hill roll and it was flavorful and well plated! Left feed and nearing a food coma! Service 11/10, we got seated right away and got the table i requested! I did go on a Tuesday sothat may have played a role too if yall also want a table by the garden. Got the food quick and accommodate to our group. So thankful they let us bring our own cake and even lit the cake for us <3 Atmosphere a 10/10 the vibe was incredible the lighting, the seating and the general aura of this place was zen, cozy and just an overall cool place. Will definitely be back!

A solid sushi experience, but just shy of perfection. We visited Momiji with high expectations, especially since many consider it one of the best sushi spots in Seattle. While the food lived up to the hype in terms of freshness and flavor, a few details held it back from a perfect score. Here’s how it stacked up: Ambiance: 4/5 The atmosphere is modern and comfortable, but nothing about the decor or layout particularly stood out. It was nicely lit and welcoming, but not the type of place you’d rave about for its setting. Authenticity: 5/5 The sushi and dishes we ordered were well-executed and fresh. The presentation was clean and elegant, and the quality of fish definitely matched that of a high-end Japanese restaurant. It stayed true to the flavors you’d expect from authentic sushi dining. Flavor: 5/5 Everything we ate—from the sashimi to the specialty rolls—was on point. Balanced, fresh, and flavorful. Easily the strongest category for Momiji. Cost: 4/5 Reasonable pricing for a sushi restaurant of this caliber in Seattle. It’s not cheap, but you’re paying for quality. That said, I do expect a flawless experience at this price point. Service: 4/5 This is where the experience dipped a little. Despite making a reservation, we still had to wait 10 minutes for them to arrange our tables when the group arrived. While our server was polite and attentive once seated, the restroom was not clean and had a noticeable odor—which detracted from the overall impression. Final Verdict: 4/5 Momiji is definitely a strong contender for top-tier sushi in Seattle, especially when it comes to food quality. However, the ambience, restroom cleanliness, and table readiness slightly missed the mark. Still, it’s worth a visit—especially for sushi lovers looking to indulge in high-quality bites.

Excellent Happy Hour 4-6pm! Nice decor, beautiful Japanese patio garden, good service, good food, great price! Definitely will be back to try other specialties!

Loved this place! Momiji is a really nice spot — fancy and stylish. The sushi was super fresh and flavorful. We didn’t have a reservation but only waited about 10 minutes, which wasn’t bad at all. Totally worth it, can’t wait to go back!

Stopped in for happy hour around 430p. No wait, prompt service, and good price for some solid quality fish. Cocktail was solid as well. Glanced at the full menu and they’re a little pricy but have a huge variety of rolls and the main dining area looks nice. Overall for the atmosphere and quality I feel I’d come back to check out the main dining area some day. But the happy hour is definitely worth it!
