“My girlfriend and I had a wonderful dinner on 2-15. We sat at the end of the sushi bar- it was a little tight when it got busy, but it’s definitely the best sushi place we’ve been to. Our server Chad was awesome and made us feel very welcome. I told a few friends and decided to write a review“

“Been talking about Bar Futo for a year now ever since their pop up at the amazing Koji Club in Boston. Here’s how it went. Get one of everything. Drink a bottle of sake. Chat with amazing staff. Order more yakitori. Have some beers. Order a crazy dessert. Buy the kitchen some shots. And listen to the story of the amazing chef and owner on what it takes to open and run the best new restaurant in New England. I said it. Sorry Boston but gonna have to step it up notch. Can’t wait to come back!“

“One of the best dining experiences in Portland highly recommend“

“The Crab Rangoon is amazing!!“

“Fantastic ramen and poke bowls.“

“If you are looking for some of Portland's most amazing foods come here. Today I had their special which was a softshell crab dish that was out of this world. I have never had the same thing twice at MaMi because all of the dishes look and smell and taste so amazing I want to try them all. It's truly an experience.“

“Food was really amazing, as a sushi lovers it was up to my expectations. Keep rocking 🍱🥢🍣“

“The salmon bento was the best.“

“Delicious very fresh sushi and a Ramen to boot! Very delicious.“

“Came here for the lunch and was not disappointed!! I saw another review that said that it isn’t busy on weekdays at lunchtime and they were correct. I actually liked the peaceful setting. When I arrived, I was greeted with a smile from both the waitress and the man at the sushi bar (I believe this is the cook). I got the tuna avocado roll, the queen roll and yellowtail with scallions roll. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved the Queen Roll. The grilled scallops were such a nice touch!! The waitress and the man making the sushi were very nice and accommodating. You can tell that they enjoy what they do because it reflects in the quality of the food and the service.“

“The atmosphere is great in the hibachi area. There are tons of tables and a lot of chefs so you do not wait long for them to start at your table. The tables are smaller too which fit just our family making it a nice experience for our group. The chef made the night even better with his cooking skills and jokes. The food was great!! I wish I could remember his name Victor maybe? His catch phrase was “thank you for laughing” after most of the jokes which made it even funnier. Enjoyable night with our family!!“
