Momiji happy hour every day from 4–6 p.m. The offer is dine-in only, and the happy-hour menu says no modifications or substitutions. The menu includes grilled garlic short ribs for $13, crispy calamari for $10, sushi rolls from $9, and cocktails including Yuzu Stormy and Lychee Martini for $12.
Does Momiji have happy hour?
Yes. The Momiji Seattle website lists happy hours every day from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Its current menu PDF labels the offer “4–6pm Every Day” and says it is for dine-in only. The restaurant also posts a separate late-night menu, but that is not the same as happy hour.
Momiji Seattle describes itself as a Japanese restaurant in Capitol Hill, with sushi, rolls, omakase, and other Japanese dishes. The happy-hour menu is a broad selection rather than just a few discounted drinks: it has kitchen appetizers, raw-bar sets, fried rolls, sushi rolls, beer, sake, wine, and cocktails.
What time is Momiji happy hour?
The posted happy-hour time is 4–6 p.m. every day, including Saturday and Sunday. The restaurant’s regular posted hours are 4–11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 4 p.m.–midnight Friday and Saturday. Since the happy-hour window ends at 6, it is an early-evening deal—not a late-night special.
Momiji’s happy-hour PDF states that the offer is dine-in only and does not allow modifications or substitutions. It also lists a 20% service charge for parties of six or more. The restaurant’s About page notes closures for Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day, so check before visiting around those holidays.
What is on the Momiji Seattle happy-hour menu?
The official menu separates food into Kitchen, Raw Bar, Fried Rolls, and Rolls, followed by drinks. The table below keeps those categories together so you can scan the full offer in one place. The happy-hour PDF does not give descriptions for every roll or serving sizes for most drinks; those details are marked as not listed rather than guessed. Prices are in U.S. dollars.

Normal price vs. happy-hour discount price: food
The dinner menu repeats several items that appear on the happy-hour menu. These comparisons use Momiji’s own Seattle menus, so they are not estimates based on other restaurants. The happy-hour PDF does not publish portion sizes for most items, so the figures show the difference between listed menu prices, not a per-ounce or per-piece calculation.
| Food item | Regular menu price | Happy-hour price | Listed price difference | Note |
| Garlic Short Ribs | $22 | $13 | $9 lower | Happy-hour menu calls them Grilled Garlic Short Ribs. |
| Spicy Ginger Chicken | $18 | $10 | $8 lower | Same named item. |
| Crispy Calamari | $17 | $10 | $7 lower | Same named item. |
| Agedashi Tofu | $13 | $9 | $4 lower | Same named item. |
| California Roll | $13 | $10 | $3 lower | Standard roll price. |
| Seattle Roll | $12 | $9 | $3 lower | Standard roll price. |
| Spicy Tuna Roll | $12 | $9 | $3 lower | Regular menu labels it “Spicy Tuna.” |
| Spider Roll | $14 | $11 | $3 lower | Standard roll price. |
| Shrimp Tempura Roll | $12 | $10 | $2 lower | Standard roll price. |
| Unagi Roll | $13 | $10 | $3 lower | Standard roll price. |
| Salmon Skin Roll | $12 | $9 | $3 lower | Standard roll price. |

| Crunchy Seattle | $18 | $12 | $6 lower | Same named fried roll. |
Normal price vs. happy-hour discount price: drinks
The drinks menu repeats two happy-hour cocktail names at regular prices. Neither menu states their pour sizes, so the table compares the listed prices only; it does not claim an equal-ounce comparison. Confirm current details with the restaurant if serving size matters to your order.
| Drink | Regular menu price | Happy-hour price | Listed price difference | Note |
| Yuzu Stormy | $16 | $12 | $4 lower | Pour size not stated on either menu. |
| Lychee Martini | $16 | $12 | $4 lower | Pour size not stated on either menu. |

Best Momiji happy-hour orders
For a hot appetizer, Grilled Garlic Short Ribs are the highest-priced kitchen item on this happy-hour menu at $13. Spicy Ginger Chicken and Crispy Calamari are both $10, while Agedashi Tofu is $9. The menu does not describe every kitchen dish, so check with the server if you need ingredient or preparation details before ordering.
If sushi is the priority, several familiar rolls fall between $9 and $11: Seattle Roll, Salmon Skin Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, and Veggie Roll are $9; California Roll and Unagi Roll are $10; Spider Roll is $11. That makes it easy to choose a few different rolls for the table without relying on an unverified “best” ranking.
The raw-bar section is the place to look for sashimi servings and combination sets. Individual sashimi options are five pieces for $13, while the Sashimi Set is $16 and the Sushi Sets range from $13 to $15. The listed set descriptions name the fish included, so compare those before choosing. The menu gives no piece count for the sets, and it does not describe all of the fried rolls.

Is Momiji Seattle happy hour worth it?
Momiji’s Seattle happy hour is worth a look if you want sushi, sashimi, rolls, or Japanese appetizers during an early 4–6 p.m. window. The official menu has 39 food and drink entries, including $9 rolls and a range of raw-bar sets, so the offer is broader than a drinks-only special. The regular-menu comparison shows lower listed prices on many of the same named items, especially the short ribs, chicken, calamari, and several rolls.
Groups of six or more should also factor in the posted 20% service charge. Since the happy-hour PDF says dine-in only, do not assume the deal applies to takeout or delivery orders.
