“Best sushi in Portland !!!!“

“We were in the area on vacation and decided to give this place a try since we love sushi. For the cost it was a utter disappointment. For $8 you get a chewy Alaska roll for ants with avocado that looks like it was sitting around for a week. When we ordered in person they told us 20 min. We came back after 20 min and they seemed to have forgotten who I was and asked me how they could help me. They then told me 10 more min so I left and came back after 10 min. Once again they forgot who I was, and after I reminded them they told me 5 more min. I then left and came back after 7 min. At least they remembered me that time because they quickly rushed to finish my order. Unless if you want to feel like a different person each time you have to come back to remind them about your order and you want to go to bed hungry, then I would suggest not going here. PS the sushi was bland and just not done well.“

“The food here is consistently excellent and the service is solid. Mostly we eat in the regular dining room not the Hibachi side but have dined in both. Sushi is amazing quality and top notch. Goyoza is the best I have had anywhere. From the outside it may not look like much but trust me it is really great every time we go and we dine there a lot.“

“My husband and I had our first date here, almost 19 years ago. We haven’t been here in a while, but glad we swung by. It was empty at first which can deter customers in general, however it was just as usual.
Cute little hidden local gem that continues to offer fresh, local seafood. Made with love our rolls were delicious as always. Service was great, food did not disappoint, and glad this classic sushi offering still stands. Thank you.“

“Food was good. Only issue was the young lady who worked the front. Zero professionalism. Never greeted me nor even looked at me. Just did her thing and yelled stuff at me about signing a piece of paper, disappeared and then five minutes later showed up with the food. At least acknowledge the customers... "Hello. How may I assist you?" I mean, say anything; that's customer service.“

“My boyfriend got the fried rice with beef, and I got the one with chicken - both were amazing! The cheesecake is out of this world - the best I’ve tried in Portland! The staff was also very nice and attentive. Genuinely liked this place and will definitely be coming back!“
