" I had the Chicken Karaage plate. It was absolutely delicious! I am very picky about fried chicken, and this was by far the best I've had in Seattle. The taste was on point, and I loved the multiple dipping sauce options. The service was quick, and our server was attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere reminded me of a cozy Japanese home which added to the experience. I will definitely be returning to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Karaage Setsuna has made quite the impression on me! The freshness of the dishes is remarkable, especially the sushi. It was so fresh it melted in my mouth. I also tried the chicken karaage, and it was incredibly juicy. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere felt lively but not overwhelming. Definitely made my top list of Japanese restaurants in Seattle! " (*Curated Review*)

" Never been here before but I was impressed by the food! The karaage was really crispy and flavorful. I especially loved the spicy mayo dip. The service was attentive and welcoming. However, I found the atmosphere a bit cramped at times, especially when it fills up during lunch. But I’d definitely recommend it for the delicious food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" What can I say?! Karaage Setsuna is simply perfect! The attention to detail in their dishes shows through in every bite. Not only is their karaage incredibly juicy, but it’s served quickly and with a smile! The mac salad deserves a mention—it’s delicious and a perfect side with the main. Will be back for sure!

" I visited with my partner and we both loved the food! The karaage is one of the best I've had, super moist and not overly greasy. I also tried their loco moco, which had an interesting twist that I enjoyed. The service could have been a little friendlier, but overall, we had a very satisfying meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a fan of Japanese cuisine, I appreciate the authenticity that Karaage Setsuna offers. Their chicken karaage is second to none! The dipping sauces add a nice flair, while the service has always been friendly. I didn’t love the cramped atmosphere, but it felt cozy nonetheless. Highly recommend trying the curry dish!
