Nestled between Pioneer Square and the Central District, the Chinatown-International District or "The I.D." (as locals say) is a richly historic neighborhood with gems both culinary and cultural around just about every corner. Its three distinct neighborhoods of Chinatown, Japantown and Little Saigon comprise the center of Seattle's Asian American community. While many only venture in on weekends for late-night karaoke or recovery dim sum, it has a ton to offer all week long if you're curious enough to find it.
This iconic Japanese establishment dates back to 1904, was shuttered during WWII, and one of its dishwashers even went onto become a prime minister of Japan. An 'American Classic' according to James Beard, Maneki features traditional tatami rooms, a bar and classic Japanese fare including sushi.
