This cost us $300 per person but it was worth it. 17 courses created with attention to detail and right in front of us. Course after course arrives, each one more intriguing than the last. The food was high quality and a plethora of flavor. As the meal progresses, you’re offered a variety of sushi and small plates, each one thoughtfully crafted and balanced. From the subtle sweetness of a perfectly grilled eel to the clean, crisp taste of a fresh oyster topped with ponzu and scallions, every bite tells a story of the sea, of tradition, and of the chef’s personal touch. One of the course included A5 Miyazaki Wagyu. We left the sushi bar feeling both content and invigorated, experienced something truly special. The memory of each bite stays with you, a reminder of the chef’s skill and the beauty of allowing yourself to be guided through a culinary journey.
Decided to splurge and celebrate my birthday at Sushi By Scratch. It was a bit difficult to get a reservation, but managed to find a time that worked best. I went with a girlfriend of mine and we both decided to opt in for the welcome drink. There were about 17 items served over the span of 1.5 hours including dessert and dessert boozy tea to top off the night. Very pricey and can find other options in Seattle for omakase, but definitely a great experience with quality items.
I really enjoyed my time here. The chefs were entertaining and impressive. The food was super fresh and we were all amazed at the flavors. I got the Sake and the caviar options and I thought they were well worth the price. A great experience, I do recommend.Food: 5/5
I had the omakase dinner here and overall my experience was really great. I highly recommend it for anyone who has an appreciation for fine sushi would like to experience an excellent and unique dining experience. More specifics: So the fish was fantastic and the preparations were very good. This isn't the best sushi that I've had, with the focus being more about the toppings on the nigiri than on treatment of the fish itself, but this is a choice that the restaurant makes and it is absolutely a valid approach. I can't fault the strategy because in the end the taste was wonderful so they can't be faulted for their choice here. The service was really good, if not Michelin-star level. The night that I went there were nine people dining, with at least 4 chefs and the restaurant manager serving. The beverage service was a little chaotic as they attempt to take everyone's drink orders at once and don't explain things very well. This, for me, is the only sub-par aspect my dining experience. The omakase course service was very well done, with preparation done right in front of us, with easy viewing of all the prep work, which is fun if you like that sort of thing which I do. All of the chefs were very interactive with the diners, explaining each dish, and talking with people individually or as a group throughout the entire service. There was also a lot of discussion and banter between diners, or with other diners and the chefs, altogether. The atmosphere that makes this possible is the intimate space that they use and the way that the room is setup. And for most foodies, this kind of communal dining, with discussion about the food while sharing in the experience, is exactly what we want. So this was wonderful. My final thoughts are that this is a really good experience, unique in a lot of ways, fun, social, and a very high level of culinary expertise on hand. I would definitely consider returning.
The food and service were great, you get 17 pieces of Nigiri, each one is a different type of fish. The flavors and the quality of the fish are very good. My 2 comments are about the charges, I believe it is over priced, also, the Sake is very expensive, and bottles start at $111. In addition and somewhat annoying is that the service charge 20% is added to the check, and tax is added on top. We paid $680 for the 2 of us with a bottle of Sake.
I couldn't recommend this experience enough. While the initial bartender/greeter is not very friendly, this does NOT continue into the dining area. All the chefs and the bartender who helped within the dining area where extremely friendly and engaging. Chef Kevin did an amazing job at explaining each course as it was being served, and the other chefs were ready to answer any questions which one might have. It was also a great experience talking with the other guests; everyone is there to have a great time, and getting to know the other guests only make the experience that much better. Be sure to try the cocktails available in the dining area as well; they are worth it! The entrance is a bit odd as there is only a small sign indicating you're at the correct location. Get there early, but not too early as you won't be let in until less than 30 minutes before your booking. We got there a bit early and rang the Ring doorbell several times, but no one answered or came to the door. There is an initial bar area where you'll have a welcome drink and a couple appetizer dishes before moving to the main dining area for your experience. The experience is overall very intimate, but again, everyone is there to have a great time, so be open to discussions
It was everything I expected and more! I had a great time, it’s a very intimate setting so perfect spot for a date and that’s what I did me and my date were very impressed by the chefs and the quality of the seafood, every bite just melts in your mouth there wasn’t one bite I didn’t enjoy, it was all so good and sushi by scratch lived up to its name, I will definitely be back!
If you’re searching for an unforgettable dining experience, look no further than Sushi by Scratch Seattle. This weekend, I had the immense pleasure of indulging in an omakase experience, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, the ambiance set the tone for an exceptional meal. The intimate setting and understated elegance of the space allowed the focus to remain where it truly mattered—on the culinary artistry. This meal was a masterclass in the art of Japanese cuisine. Each course was a harmonious blend of innovation and tradition, showcasing not only his technical skill but also his profound respect for the ingredients. The precision with which Chef Kevin prepared each dish was evident in the flawless presentation. The highlights of the evening were undoubtedly the crispy onion bite and the additional foie gras bite. Its intricate balance of textures and flavors was a testament to the high level of creativity and expertise. Every bite was a revelation, a testament to his ability to elevate simple ingredients into something truly magical. In addition to the remarkable food, the service was impeccable. The staff were attentive and personable, and catered to our every need. As a delightful surprise, the bartender sent us home with a Polaroid picture. This thoughtful gesture added a personal touch to the night, making the entire experience even more memorable. For anyone who appreciates fine dining and the artistry of a true master, I cannot recommend Sushi by Scratch Seattle and Chef Kevin highly enough. This is a rare gem that deserves to be savored and celebrated. I look forward to returning!
This was a fun experience overall. We arrived early and joined another couple at the bar where we received a welcome cocktail and waited for the previous seating to leave and our fellow diners to arrive. The food was delicious. The fish quality was excellent, very traditional seafood varieties but with flavor combinations making each bite unique. I had the sake pairing with the meal and it was fantastic. The sommelier picked some fun and unique choices to pair with the courses. I have some food restrictions and they did a great job asking via text in advance and reconfirming upon arrival. I had several substitutions that were given similar treatments as what other diners had. Highly recommend!
This is my third experience at the premier omakase in Seattle and won't be my last. Chef Graham, Chef Andy, and Chef Kevin are always on Point and make you feel welcomed the moment you enter. With explosive & decadent flavors combined with their impeccable knife skills, we are able to enjoy seafood at its highest and most respected form. Thank you for a wonderful experience again. The new menu is outstanding. Make sure you consult Theo for some of the best and exclusive saké to go with your sushi.
