Moshi Moshi Sushi

This past Monday my boyfriend, Colin and I tried a new sushi place for happy hour. Our favorite has always been Umi in Belltown (which I will post about another time), but Moshi Moshi is definitely high on my list after checking it out. It's in Ballard, right on Ballard Ave. across from Madame K's, so very convenient if you happen to be in the neighborhood and are looking for some great sushi. The atmosphere is lovely with pale green walls, dressed with japanese umbrellas and a floor to ceiling lit Sakura tree from Japan sitting in the center of the restaurant.

Prices are great ranging from $1.95 to $5.95. They only have a couple of roll options, so we tried a traditional California roll and an Eel Avacado roll, both very tasty and only $3.95. What's nice and somewhat different about their happy hour menu is they have several non-sushi options for those who aren't big fans of sushi. We tried the Beef Kushi Sashi, which are seasoned flat ironed beef skewers...delicious and only $2.95! And of course, both of our favorites, steamed edamame for $1.95. They also have drink specials, for $5 or less. We were impressed by the rather extensive list of speciaty cocktails, a couple of which are on the happy hour menu. Colin tried the .40 Calibur composed of rye, dubonnet, marshino, absinthe and bitters, which he really liked. They also have glasses of house wine for $3.95, which was and is often my choice for happy hour. I had the white, not bad, nor my favorite.

Overall, a great choice and one we will be stopping in for again!
