We could always trust our Seattle friends to pick out best spots for our brief visit. Since our two families were juggling 3 kids, we opted to order take out from Donburi. This place is a regular for them, and it was incredible. Take out was ready on time for pick up, and when I got it back to the house, it was pristine shape. Luckily, our friends live fairly close. Everything was super fresh and delicious. I ordered a chirashi don which had a good sized serving of sashimi. I wanted to eat my friends’ sake don and spicy tuna don also. My wife and son ordered tonkatsu which all kept its crunchy fried batter and huge portions. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to snap a photo of all the food because everyone was hungry and I didn’t want them to wait on me to take food photos. Definitely worth a visit to this restaurant. Would come back 10/10.
Donburi is a small chain of Japanese food restaurants. They have a parking lot on the side which is great since Airport Way can be tough sometimes. Inside they have about 8 tables and a few stools to sit on, but most tables are sectioned off. The staff here are friendly, although sometimes it takes a minute to notice you when walking in. Their menu is small, but it's because they focus on a few food items. Prices are decent, but portion sizes are on pretty good for the bowls. They could do a bit of work on their sauces, but overall a solid lunch spot.
What a fantastic meal we had. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Everything we had tasted fresh and delicious. I highly recommend the Volcano Don, Crispy Tonkatsu Don, and the side Pork Curry. The Crispy Tonkatsu Don was so juicy and packed a punch of flavor. The Pork Curry was the best I ever had. The Volcano Don is off the chain good. There is only one thing I did not like. And that was the service. There is none. No one to greet you. No one to explain the menu. Or recommend what to add to your poke bowl.
