From VA, and this is really good Japanese food. They have katsu don which is pretty hard to find at typical Japanese restaurants, but they had it here and it was SO good. Husband got the Hawaiian bomb maki roll and he liked his too! Staff is very nice as well. Would definitely come back here again!!
Benkay is not only the best sushi around but also one of the best restaurants in Portland (which is saying something)! The food quality, atmosphere and staff are all top notch. We’ve been coming here for decades and it’s always been amazing. Do yourself a favor and eat here!
Kid-friendliness: My daughter has been coming here since she was born! They are so kind and accommodating for kids but she also loves the sushi and miso soup here.

Great food, friendly wait staff and a quite relaxing atmosphere. The sashimi was fresh and tasted excellent. The California roll was good, but not great. Neither was the roll my wife ordered. The nigiri was tasty and the rice was well made. My only real gripe was that the miso soup tasted like it was instant miso, not hand made. At this price point I thought that should have been better. Sadly, parking was terrible. Ended up paying $18 to park for an hour's lunch...thanks...
