Saito's features expertly prepared Sushi & Japanese cuisine. Saito’s also presents Seattle’s largest premium Sake selection in our Sake Bar with over 40 sakes and sake cocktails.

For Saito the Sushi training began in Japan when he was only fifteen years old.  A chef at heart, Saito received further training into his twenties until he left his native Japan and moved to the United States.  He settled in the Seattle-Tacoma area. Keeping up the art of preparing Sushi, Saito maintains strong connections to his mentor in Japan.  He eagerly awaits the expected arrival of his mentor’s son, who will join Saito’s cuisine team here in Seattle.

Saito’s head kitchen chef is Takashi Asakawa. This excellent chef provides Saito’s with his intense dedication to creating delicious and beautiful Japanese cuisine.  

Saito’s location has become simply "the best" place for Sushi in Seattle.  You may order your food to go, but it is more exciting to stay and watch the chefs prepare the Sushi, and other authentic Japanese cuisine items, at the restaurant's  2nd Avenue and Blanchard location in Belltown. The modern Japanese ambiance combined with the hospitality provided by Saito and his staff invites you to stay for either lunch or dinner, and to return again soon.
