Taneda - Seattle

Taneda-san's prowess with akami and kohada is truly commendable. Each morsel showcases precision and deep respect for the craft.However, for the price commanded, one anticipates a more diverse array of ocean treasures. While the classics shine, a touch more innovation would elevate the experience to its deserving pedestal.

Legitimately the best meal I've had in my life. Not only was each dish incredibly good on its own and allowed me to try items I'd never likely try otherwise, but Chef Taneda was great in how he would share information about each dish as well as his demeanor and humor. The entire staff were incredibly good as well making for an entire experience well worth it even beyond the food. I 100% will have to come back during a different season when the menu/ingredients change.

Creative and Fresh! (visited in March) The best sushi place in Seattle area, if only I can get a reservation.Parking: Most likely you'll need to find street parking by yourself.

Absolutely the best dining experience of my life. I think it’d be impossible to describe what it was like, I’ll just say that I am completely willing to just eat rice/lentils at home in order to save up to go to Taneda once each season ???. Each piece/dish was truly a work of art! I loved how sakura was incorporated to reflect the spring season!

My wife somehow got us reservations for the 7:30 seating on my actual birthday. Dont know how she did it considering how difficult it is to get into this place. Have had high end Omakase many times before and this experience was near the top! Loved the cool little location of the shop and the atmosphere. All the patrons and staff were friendly and festive. Chef was great and the sake pours didnt stop. Everything was beautiful, delicious and amazing. Cant wait to go back once I have saved up some money again!! Loved everything about Taneda!!!
