Katana Sushi

Somewhere between a 2 and 3 honestly. Read the reviews before coming and didn't know what to expect and that's what I got. It's an OK sushi place. Average sushi prices but there are better quality sushi place if you price compare. Parking is potentially a challenge but not a show stopper. The venue itself is a great little place. Rustic and a part of downtown Everett history. Props there. No soap in the bathroom so that's a health issue right out of the gate considering we arrived right when it opened. Decent liquor selection. The Old Fashioned was just ok and I ordered it with Basil Hayden. Should have just ordered it neat. No cocktail ice cubes either at opening was strike two. Bar basic prep fail. The sushi wasn't anything extraordinary. Ordered Tempura Platter....batter had ZERO flavor and the sauce may as well have been tainted water... no flavor there either. Calamari was similar. Also ordered a few rolls. The pieces are cut smaller to appear as if you're getting more but it's an average size roll. The place was packed, yes, and service was spotty. Lots of staff behind the counter but not a lot on the floor which I didn't understand as busy as it was. We were a party of 7 and ordered a lot of food for a birthday celebration but were asked to leave to turn the tables even though we still had drinks and were talking. Even with reservations waiting, there were other tables that could have been merged just as well. Most likely won't be back which I know won't break the bank but there must be something that draws locals there. Maybe it's limited sushi options in the area, not sure, but it might just be convenience. Food looks great in the pics but again... average.

It's okay. If no street parking is available out front parking can be a little tricky. California roll and edamame were okay. Steak skewers were very chewy...I did not care for them. I may try again and update my review. Looked like they had a variety of rolls but I was in a hurry. Lots of seating and good atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Talk about fresh! One of the best sushi spot I have tried. Yes it gets busy, but service was great. We got our food at a timely matter. I just wish we got ice or colder water. I like that our sushi was actually bite size. It was the perfect amount of rice, fish, and more. Unlike other sushi spots, they make rice their filler, and put little amount of fish. Another thing is, I wish the parking was better. Other than that, the sushi makes up for the cons. If you ever get a chance to stop by I highly recommend the Katana roll, uni nigiri, and maiden roll.

My friend and I didn’t find much of this restaurant. We thought the food was pretty average and kind of bland. We ordered the yam fries, chicken karaage, California roll, wasabi teriyaki steak skewers and another dish I forgot the name. The price was not bad as we went during happy hour. The sushi was pretty average as well.

Ordered 4 rolls from the Specialty Selection: Godzilla Roll, Phoenix Rising, Super Rainbow Roll, and the Sunrise Roll. They were all very good. Each rolls had their own flavor to it. The quality of fish was good. Also ordered the Calamari and Chicken Karaage as appetizers. Calamari was overcooked so a bit chewy but the Karaage was tender and dipping sauce compliment it well. Will have to come back and try their Omakase.
