About this business
It's hard to believe that this little corner eatery serves some of Seattle's best sushi. But then, considering chef Shiro Kashiba's formidable reputation of having served important Japanese delegates and ministers, it's not really surprising. Starting off in the city with the now popular Nikko restaurant, he installed himself and his considerable talents in this simple but elegant Belltown storefront in 1994. Turning out crisp cuts of fish and hand rolls with as much flourish as food, Shiro's is renowned for innovative adapt... read more

amazing! – the sushi here is the best seattle has to offer, and the service is amazing. thay always remember you and know your favorites!
Average – I've heard so much about Shiro's but never visited until last week. The yellow tail was amazing, so was the uni even though the cuts were pretty thin. However, the service was not very good, considering how many servers they have for such a small place. When we first walked in, the place was nearly empty yet the hostess let us stand around akwardly for a few minutes before even saying hello. It was expensive. Dinner for the two of us was $115 and we only split one bottle of beer.... I wouldn't really recommend SHir... read more
Prices way high.. – Prices have become much more expensive recently. Dropped $70 on din for 2 with no appetizer and no alcohol! A year ago we paid about $40 for the same meal at Shiro's! The single-nigiri servings are now at 2-piece nigiri prices. Result is shocking- I won't be back, especially with many great sushi places in Seattle.
Too Expensive – The sushi here is good but not worth the price. The prices here is comparable to San Francisco and New York's. Head to Musashi's for a slightly lower quality sushi for 1/2 the price.
Great, if you don't like value. – Last night was my second visit to the highly touted Shiro's. My first visit a couple months ago was disappointing but I figured I would try it again to be fair. Second time was not a charm. Fish was unimpressive some fresh but not outstanding, especially considering the price. The salmon roe was salty and from a jar, the salmon was seared (while our city is inundated with fresh salmon), and the albacore almost frozen in the middle. The atmosphere, although its improved, is still stale and pa... read more
Shiro - Seattle's Sushi God – Shiro has been making the best sushi in Seattle for almost 30 years. He is an institution going back two decades before the popularity of sushi became widespread. He was serving fabulous yellowtail back when 'good tuna' meant adding relish to your tuna fish sandwhich. Sitting at the bar at Shiro's is an education in more ways than one.
No Contest – Shiro's is the finest sushi in or out of the city
best sushi. must sit at the sushi bar – We've been going to Shiro's for many years. If you haven't eaten at the sushi bar, then you must! It's the only way. If you don't know what to order, then just leave it up to Shiro-san and he will dazzle you with different wonderful things. The broiled cod is one of my favorites, as well as the nagitoro hand roll!
traditional sushi only – They have a very limited menu if you only like rolls. The rolls they have are very traditional. They don't have rolls that have avocado, cream cheese, shrimp, and other ingredients that I have seen at many other restaurants across the nation. We had to wait about 15 minutes before the waitress asked us what we wanted to drink.
