The well-maintained blondes and tailored-fleece-attired clientele at Madison Park's Nishino shouldn’t intimidate those of us who are rougher around the edges: The service at this Madison Park restaurant is always kind (even to kids!), and Nishino’s kitchen produces consistently beautiful sushi—impeccably fresh, cut with samurai precision and cushioned on beds of exquisite rice.

“[Nishino’s] cuisine is pure Japanese with innovative American touches. The results are artful, often dazzling...It’s a joy.”
- Seattle Times, Pacific Magazine

“[Nishino] serves ‘creative’, ‘cutting-edge’ cuisine at this ‘graceful’ Madison Park Japanese [restaurant]. His “beyond description chef’s-choice dinner’ and ‘great sushi bar’, where everything is beautifully presented’, are ‘impressive’.”

“Although its sushi is great, what makes Nishino a standout is its fresh, creative approach to [Japanese] cuisine.”
