Guess ANYONE can open a sushi place these days... – Since I won;t ever want to waste my time with this place, I won't waste much time writing a review. I'll make this short and to the point. For the same quality of sushi, you are better getting a cheap bite at Sushi Land. Basically, Japanese Gourmet is Sushi Land MINUS the conveyor belt, color coded pricing dishes, low prices, good service (yes, even a mainstream conveyor belt "sushi" place has better service...which says quite a lot) One thing that Japanese Gourmet and Sush... read more

Ultimate Sushi @ Pike Place Market – I went there for lunch. Their lunch special (Bento) is really good and only costs 8 dollars. It has grilled Salmon, fried shrimp, tempura, sushi roll and salad. Besides, I also ordered their secret $1 promotion: Fish roll. Amazing price with delicious food. No wonder they are located in Pike Place Market for 20 years!!!

Save your wallet...skip it. – I can clearly see why there are both extremely good and extremely bad reviews for this place. The first group of people are ones who don't have a standard for fine sushi and would typically eat anything in front of them...the kind that thinks orange chicken is fine Chinese cuisine. The second group are the ones either inclined with what they eat or have had terrible experiences with the place. First of all, the name Japanese Gourmet is a very generic name that serves better for a traditional hom... read more

Good Sushi and Sashimi – I can't understand the complaints--although they are from a couple of years ago.I have eaten dinner and lunch here a number of times(always with some sushi and sashimi), and recently got some take-out sushi and it has always been good. In fact the wait for the take-out was almost 30mins, and I thought that was a good sign. A little pricey but the food is worth it.

don't let the generic name fool you! – If you go on a Wednesday or Thursday, sit at the bar and let Chef Wilson amaze you! My friend and I stumbled upon this place while searching desperately for any downtown Pho restaurant open after 6pm. (I mean, WTH?) This place was closing up, but Wilson invited us in and made us a very special selection of sashimi and a signature roll. The seared albacore was the best sashimi I've ever had in my entire LIFE! It's the kind of restaurant experience you wish you could have every time you d... read more

There are other worthy sushi places around Seattle – I work in the downtown Seattle area and live on the Eastside. After I get off from work, I am usually very hungry and hesitant to wait to go home and cook. As a result, I find myself dining out everyday for my dinner fix. One day after work, I decided to try something new and explore more closely some of the dining joints offered at the Pike Place Market area. Being a lover of sushi, I found Japanese Gourmet. Upon entering, there werent that many people but the interior wa... read more

There are many places in Seattle to get good sushi...this is not one of them – This was my second visit to this restaurant and definitely my last. Although I had an unsatisfactory experience on my last visit, I decided to give it another try even though I remembered that the sushi is not of the quality I have had at other restaurants. When my order did not seem to be what I requested, I questioned the sushi chef who proceeded to yell at me, then went to the hostess talking loudly and pointing at me. This made for a very unco... read more

cozy, classy, convenient – My husband and I enjoy this restaurant. We eat here frequently and always receive good to great service, so I am surprised/perplexed by some of the other negative reviews. The food is delicious and meals come with wonderful hot tea, and, of course, miso soup and salad. The lunch specials ($7.25) and 3-6PM half-price sushi/drinks happy hour are terrific bargains. Dinners are pricier ($15), but still quite reasonable, with generous portions (we usually cannot eat everything, but we do anyway, of cour... read more

Great all around – I work at an office near this restaurant, so I often eat there during lunch. I highly recommend the house bento, this selection varies every weekday. I think the food is great, best food for the bucks, only 7.25, the sitting is comfortable, beautiful design, . I sometimes bring friends to eat there on Saturdays during happy hour when the sushi and drinks are exclusively low-priced. Another great selection would be the Udons, they have the best soup base out of all the other competition. I highly recommende... read more
