Musashi's 1400 North 45th Street, Seattle, WA 98103

"Got Musashi’s for takeout. Really decent portions for the price, and very, very generous with the sushi rice. At some point my tongue became numb to the flavors, it was just an onslaught of fish and rice, but getting a chirashi here is less about a fine dining gastronomical experience and more about a sizable chunk of decent quality fish at a reasonable price."

"It's been 12 years since I last visited Musashi's. Back then, it was genuinely a joy to enjoy a wholesome bowl of chirashi for a mere $15. The best value sashimi ever. In 2024, I was surprised to discover that Musashi's was still open! The tiny restaurant, that only accepts cash, survived COVID. And yes, the food is amazing as ever. The same chirashi is now $18, but again, jam packed with value. I was surprised they had only raised it by $3 over a decade. Fresh fish well cut, jam packed with value and flavor. The sukiyaki bowl was also well done with tender and fatty meat cuts. And yes, theses would be one of the fattest California rolls. Again, Musashi's is all about value and serves the local UW community well. The only downside is that because the store is so small with so few tables, your experience is practically destroyed by rambunctious neighboring tables. Oh, and they accept credit card now. Finally! If you haven't yet experienced Musashi's, it's time you do. Avoid the crowd and pick slightly off times."

"Great price for incredible quality thick cut sushi. I have returned several times because of this. A small menu, but that doesn’t matter in the slightest. Recently, I ate in with a companion and a homeless man came in and started bothering us. He was asking us questions while we were trying to finish our meal. The cashier/server came over and politely told the man to leave. After the man left, he spoke to us very charismatically and was kind. He also had other customers come in and dealt with them in the same charismatic manner. Overall an extremely amazing experience. Highly recommend."

"Tiny little store with delicious chirashi bowl. The fish is very fresh and delicious, portion is generous and price is very fair. I will definetely come again. P.s.: There were some flies flying around in the resturant but it is hard to avoid at this time of year and it really did not bother us."

"Cheap price for rolls. Chirashi bowl is not particularly cheap and the fish was not particularly fresh (see last photo of fish falling apart)"
