12 Best Sushi Bars in Bend

“Come check out the best poke bowl in town“

“This is one of two places in downtown Bend that treated us like humans. We needed a reprieve and were so relieved to find a sushi restaurant downtown. Immediately upon entering we were greeted and seated. The food was delicious and the cocktails were so much better than we were expecting (superb, really). Our waiter also tended the bar and was warm and attentive.

Sir, if you are reading this, just know you did a tremendous service for us way beyond dining. Our vacation to Bend has been filled with high nerves due to the expressions of racism and snobbery and your kindness and humanity was deeply refreshing. We were exhausted and disappointed and the whole experience lifted our spirits.

July 3rd between 2:30 - 3:30.“

“Great food with great service. We are really happy with their food as well. Very fresh.“

“I’ve been a connoisseur of Kanpai for almost 14 years now. I love that they do reservations now (finally, and worth it). If it’s a special occasion, do the sushi bar omakase … they never do you wrong and it is truly the best experience. Worth every cent. If it’s a date night or other family night out, the specials never disappoint. My faves: appetizers: seaweed salad and edamame (obvi), sashimi: salmon or tuna (especially albacore when they have it- get it or get the special…. Mmmm). Rolls: orgasm, rainbow, Harley Davidson. Hot house sake never disappoints and they actually make great cocktails (martinis, old fashions… great selection of Japanese whiskey). It’s taken me this long to write a review because I love the place and want to keep it small, so please, if you visit - be cool and don’t wreck the vibe.“

“I have only done take out from this place and never disappointed. The sushi is fresh and so tasty. Me and my son enjoy eating together because we are the only ones in the family that enjoys the cuisine. He can also attest of the great salmon, Californian rolls and the tuna. and i love vegen roll. we will be back.“

“Great sushi bar located in a larger food court area. Fast and really good rolls. Access to beer makes the meal complete. Will definitely be back.“

“Okawa | Steak House & Sushi offers an exceptional dining experience with attentive and friendly staff who make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in.I sat at the bar because I enjoy the conversation with the bartender, always a good story to be had there about an expedition here or adventure there.The sushi is wonderfully fresh and beautifully presented (see picture) making it a highlight of the meal. As a frequent traveler, it's one of my favorite places to visit, and I eagerly look forward to returning again soon.“

“I’m always wary of food truck sushi, and have been surprised time and time again how fresh and dialed the poke bowls are. Poke bowls are all I have ordered, five times now. Service has been stellar as well, even when very busy the NorthFresh Crew has taken great care of me.I’ve had both the KimChi Ghost bowl and the Lava Poke. I’ve found the portions to be large and great value for what I paid. Ordered once in person and the other 4 times online for pickup. Have had good experiences with both ordering options.Thanks NorthFresh!“

“Growing up in Hawaii means I’ve had my fair share of poke, and North Fresh Sushi in Bend is now at the top of my list. The fish quality was next-level, and every bite was like a wave of flavor. The atmosphere was on point, and the customer service? Couldn’t have asked for better. If you’re craving sushi or poke done right this place is the ‘reel’ deal!“

“One of my favorite places for great food. Staff is friendly and polite. Food is delicious and prices are excellent, will definitely keep going for dinner!“
