100% vegan sushi bar

I really liked this place’s menu, it’s very creative. The only thing that has room for improvement is that the sushi is missing a fishy taste. But overall, really cool spot with good service.

Pros: Creative, Good service, Good food

Cons: Expensive

Favorite sushi in Seattle

Whether you are vegan or not, there are so many choices on this menu there is something for everyone! I love the Seattle Tempura roll, the Green Goddess roll, the spicy tuna, and the new walnut shrimp!! The service is unmatched. This family biz truly treats you like you’re part of the family. Thanks for everything you do, Samurai!

Pros: Great service , Lots of choices , New items all the time

Amazing food, very good vegan sushi!

I went with my fiancé and friend and got the gyoza, edamame, and miso soup for the appetizer all were very tasty and for the rolls we got yoga, Pacific Northwest, red dragon, crispy shrimp, maui, samurai, spicy tuna, Orion. We recommend all of these rolls my favorite were yoga and red dragon. This was also enough food for all three of us.

Pros: They use a type of vegan “fish” like protein , The chef was also a waiter was very nice to us

Good Sushi, but weird texture on the "fish"

I loved how creative their rolls were and they were really yummy. However, if I were to return i would not get something with the mock salmon/tuna because it tastes fishy but the texture reminds me of hard jello? Idk it was just not a pleasant texture to me. Overall their menu was very yummy though and i liked the mock shrimp they used. I wasn't a huge fan of the miso soup though, it was very sweet which was strange to me.

Pros: Large Menu, Friendly Staff

Cons: Mock Salmon

Best veg sushi in Seattle

Came here for my birthday dinner and this place honestly blew me away. We tried 4 rolls - spicy tuna, salmon, crunchy shrimp, and curry rolls and all were delicious. My favorite was the salmon roll - very unique! We also had the gyoza as an app. Wish I lived closer because I would eat here all the time. Reasonably priced too and very attentive service. I have never drank that much unlimited tea in my life.

Delicious food and the Nicest People

We're so grateful Sushi Samurai went vegan because now we have a local place to go where we know the sushi will be plant-based AND it will be delicious! They offer a wide variety of sushi rolls, along with nigiri, and "salmon" sashimi. To top it off, the people who own/run Sushi Samurai are THE NICEST. It is clear they care about their food and the community they serve.

Pros: Everything is delicious., Lots to choose from., The people are the nicest!

Sushi Samurai rules!

Shushi Samurai is an amazing and friendly place in upper Queen Anne, Seattle. The owner and staff are great and the food and ambience are the best. Their creations are so good and real that they have to put large signs stating that the food is plant based only. Highly recommended!

Pros: Great vegan food, Friendly staff, Nice ambience inside and great tent outside.

Cons: None

The only 100% Vegan Sushi restaurant in Seattle….. and it’s excellent!!

Whether you are Vegan or not this place serves delicious high quality vegan sushi. The staff is attentive AF and well informed. Care, craft, and quality are paramount. It is run by two brothers, and it’s obvious they put their heart and soul into the food, and have been at this location for over 9 years. They have recently made the move to vegan sushi, out of concern for the environment and wanting to switch to ethically sourced food products.

The sushi we ordered was amazing, whether you would like to stick to traditional veggie sushi, or if you want to try “salmon” or “tuna” sushi. The veggies are creative and not just boring California rolls, some with a spicy kick or Smokey flavor. Excellent textures, the “new samurai” roll was excellent and a crowd favorite. Our plate of sushi was presented beautifully and with care, sporting bright edible flowers.

We had a wonderful experience and we can’t wait to go back. We’ve spent the evening telling all our friends about it!

Pros: Excellent food, Good value , Attentive staff

Perfect sushi

Some of the best vegan sushi I've had. The vegan salmon, tuna, eel and California rolls all were fantastic. The staff (I believe it was the owner) was super knowledgeable about all questions and perfectly accommodated my friend who was seeking gluten-free options. #Veganuary

Pros: Delicious sushi, Friendly staff, Cozy atmosphere

Literally the most amazing spot

My friend and I had the best meal here. Vegan sushi is so rare, especially stuff with mock seafoods. Every item was so clearly well- thought out and so good. Our waiter, who I think was also the owner, was the nicest guy and had plenty of banter. It was clear he was really wanting to make sure we had the best experience and meal possible. Stand-up fella, stand-up place. I’m going to be thinking of this meal for many years to come.

They also gave us edible flowers with every dish, and was playing Nemo on the TV. Fish truly are friends, not food.

Pros: Price variability , Friendliness, Fake meat!!

Cons: Don’t exist

Fully Vegan Sushi Restaurant!

This cozy neighborhood sushi restaurant was non-vegan for 10 years. It went exclusively vegan 3 months ago. We went for a birthday celebration and frankly I was nervous. I was worried it would either 1) taste bad-too fishy or off tasting or 2) be a creepy texture or 3) all the above. It wasn’t any of those things! The sushi tasted fresh-subtly like the ocean and no fishy flavor or objectionable textures. The presentation was gorgeous and flavors were great! We are already planning our next visit-so happy this restaurant made the switch! Pro tip: make a reservation bc they get really busy! Note: The seafood is konjac and potato starch sourced wholesale from San Diego.

Seattle Needed This

Seattle was in need of a 100% vegan sushi restaurant. I’m happy that this restaurant decided to make the transition to 100% plant-based.

I’ve been wanting to come here for a while and finally found time in the schedule to do so today. I pulled up to an empty restaurant and was seated promptly (made a reservation but was not needed, at the time). I asked the waiter what he recommended and he said for spicy the red dragon and for non-spicy the Seattle tempura. Great! I’ll take them both and the gyozas.

Gyozas arrived first and were good. I definitely enjoyed the chili sauce that accompanied them. Next came the sushi. The red dragon wasn’t too spicy. If I had to choose I enjoyed the Seattle tempura more.

Customer service was top-notch throughout my time there. I chatted with my waiter who happened to be the owners brother. I asked him if he was familiar with HappyCow and he stated he was and that many people have came and said they found this place on HappyCow. He was ecstatic about this.

Keep up the good work, HappyCow’ers! Let’s keep frequenting this Seattle gem.

Wow wow wow

This was a real treat. A traditional sushi restaurant with an all vegan menu. We were overwhelmed by all of the choices. The imitation fish looks very realistic but doesn’t taste “fishy,” which was fine by us. Everything was delicious! Our vegan kids got to try a California roll for the first time, and we also had several other “fancy” rolls (with eel, crab, salmon). Gorgeous presentation too. Would definitely go back the next time we’re in Seattle.
