Lion West Portal is a consistently delicious restaurant known for its extremely fresh seafood. It is a great spot for sushi and sashimi, with perfect nigiri and specialty rolls that are a great value. The vegan menu is also extensive, offering a decent selection of vegan sushi. The atmosphere is nice with two floors and plenty of seating, creating a cozy vibe. Service is thorough, efficient, and friendly, making the overall experience enjoyable. The restaurant is casual and clean, with a chill ambiance that many find relaxing. Popular dishes include the Lion King roll, which is described as "literally fire," and the Double Hamachi roll with a hint of truffle. The Salmon Nigiri is also highly recommended. The restaurant occasionally updates its menu, and while most offerings are excellent, some items like Walu/escolar are best avoided. There is a massage chair near the bathroom, likely for staff, and it would be interesting to see more items from Mongolia on the menu, such as Buuz dumplings. Overall, Lion West Portal provides a great sushi experience and is a new go-to spot for sushi lovers. Making a reservation is highly recommended to ensure a good seat.
