    Thank you for providing us with such a wonderful experience. We truly enjoyed our time, and the service from the hostess who helped coordinate our two reservations was exceptional. The food was stellar and so were the amazing drinks! My husband enjoyed the birthday sweet desert at the end as a nice surprise! :)

    One of our party was running late. It was a Tuesday night, so not as busy as usual. Our waiter was awesome and let us hang out and wait for our 4th person to join us for drinks and dessert. We happily ordered an extra roll and another round of drinks while we waited and tipped well in gratitude.

    Delicious sushi at happy hour prices. That's what keeps us coming back to Japonessa. The chocolate Tower was a decadent way to end our dinner. Great place to go before a show or before/after checking out Seattle Art Museum across the street.
