Description

Nijo isn't for purists. The rolls here are not the gentle, conservative sort favored by the picky or the classically inclined. But they are all fresh. They are all delicious. And what's more, Nijo does an excellent, modern take on sushi-as-fast-food, and offers one of the best fish-based Happy Hours in the city.

  • 2010 | Best Happy-Hour Fish

    There are a million sushi restaurants to choose from in Seattle. Even more places offer happy-hour deals to entice those willing to duck out of work a little early to score cheap drinks and discounted snacks. And while a decent number of places populate the territory where these two data sets intersect (meaning sushi bars with good happy hours), the best of these is Nijo. Beyond the simple lure of pretty girls who bring you raw fish and booze while your friends are still chained to their... More »

    Close Sushi Is Good Sushi

    By Jason Sheehan | Wed, December 22, 2010

    The first sushi I ever had was from a grocery store. Wegman's grocery store, to be exact, in Rochester, New York. One black plastic clamshell to-go box, a little piece of fake grass, a mound of green-dyed horseradish masquerading as wasabi, sliced... More »

    The sushi bar two floors down from Seattle Weekly's office has really come into its own, and it shows during happy hour (daily, 4 to 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. to close). For $4 apiece, you can choose from a (literally) colorful array of Asian-ized cockta... More »

    The sushi at Nijo isn't for everyone. First and foremost, it's not for purists: The "Flamin' Fire" roll—a spicy tuna roll wrapped in albacore and yellowfin, sprinkled with rum, and set aflame—sees to that. Nontraditionalists would do well to treat... More »

    went here in the Spring and sat on the patio - it was absolutely gorgeous, the food was exceptional (clearly one of the top sushi bars in the city), and the service was outstanding. The Hitachino White Ale was the perfect compliment. if you're a fan of sushi and atmosphere, I highly recommend it.
