This little eatery, located in Lake City, about five minutes north of downtown, may be the best-kept secret in the Seattle area. Prices aren't exactly low, but they are reasonable, and the broad selection is sure to bring you back time and again. It is a bit of a hole-in-the-wall with little invested in the decor, but chef/owner Toyoda makes up for it with the freshest possible seafood and top-flight chefs. Sushi is the specialty, but no less good are the teriyaki and tempura. Sometimes dishes are compromised when the restaurant is busy.
