Seattle｜Fort St. George｜A Nostalgic Japanese Western-style Diner

Located on the second floor of an old-style plaza in the heart of Chinatown, stepping into this restaurant feels like traveling back to the 1990s. About the food: · Omurice ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A classic omurice with slightly sweet and sour fried rice. The egg omelet on top is a bit smaller than expected, but when eaten with ketchup and rice, it's a comforting, soft, and tangy bite. · Beef Curry with Rice⭐⭐⭐ I added tonkatsu as a topping. The curry itself is standard but satisfying, and the side of pickled red radish adds a unique, old-school Japanese western-style touch. · Tempura⭐⭐⭐⭐ Served with a light soy-based dipping broth. The shrimp tempura is delightfully crispy and light, never oily. · Gyutan Shioyaki ⭐⭐⭐ The seasoning on the grilled beef tongue is excellent—enhanced with shichimi pepper and mayo, it’s flavorful and layered. However, the tongue was a bit too tough to chew comfortably. Overall, the dishes here are classic, reminiscent of home-style Japanese western cooking—not groundbreaking, but warm and familiar.
