About Yoroshiku

Modern ramen bar with time-honored recipes

A memorable dining experience for all 

Pleasure To Meet You–Yoroshiku!

The Beginning

Born and raised in the Hokkaido prefecture, owner Keisuke Kobayashi came to Seattle in 2006 as a student. His heart led him back to his hometown of Sapporo with a dream to one day return to the Emerald City and bring back valuable tenets of Japanese culture. While back home, Keisuke learned his most valuable lesson through food service: prepare with your heart. Serve with your soul.

The First Venture

In 2012, Keisuke actualized those lessons and that dream. With help from his lifelong friend and culinary expert Koichi Homma (and of course his wife Yoshie), Yoroshiku was born. Since 2012, the traditional Japanese restaurant became a destination for foodies and families alike.

A New Challenge

5 years and many accolades later, Yoroshiku would evolve. An expansion of space saw the restaurant double in size and refocus to a traditional and modern izakaya style. With it, Keisuke and company hope to break the dated notion of Japanese cuisine; it's more than sushi and teriyaki. Yoroshiku prepares from the heart, and serves from the soul with Hokkaido specialities including ramen & karaage fried chicken.

Our Newest Chapter

Born and raised in Hokkaido, owner Keisuke Kobayashi first came to Seattle in 2006 as a student. Through a series of wonderful experiences, he quickly fell in love with the city and the people. Enamored with the idea of sharing his hometown dishes and Japanese culture with the people of the Emerald City, Keisuke ventured to open a restaurant of his own. To prepare, he worked hard and learned from the best in the Hokkaido food service industry. Under the tutelage of many great chefs and restaurant owners, he developed his most important restaurant credo: prepare with your heart and serve with your soul!

In 2012, with the help of his lifelong friend and culinary expert, Koichi Homma and his beloved wife, Keisuke opened his dream restaurant in Seattle–Yoroshiku! Over the years, Yoroshiku has become a destination for foodies, families, and friends alike seeking traditional Hokkaido Japanese cuisine. Constantly striving to improve, the restaurant has evolved and grown. Recently celebrating their 10 year anniversary, the Yoroshiku family is brimming with gratitude for their patrons who have supported them throughout the years. Now with a new vision and focus, Yoroshiku will welcome their customers as a modern ramen bar serving some of the best ramen in Seattle along with flavor rich, tender Zangi (Japanese fried chicken) and delicious, Izakaya style fried food.
