I came here for a special occasion and it was by far, the best omakase experience I’ve ever had. We’ll definitely return for our next celebratory treat.

This was some of the best sushi we’ve ever had. We sat at the bar and got to watch the chef make each piece, which he then described to us at each step through the tasting menu. We went early and it was a very quiet setting. We’ll definitely go back for another special occasion!

Let me set the scene. We’re a married couple in our early 30s who recently got back from Tokyo and think we’re too good for sushi in America now. Barely willing to try. We arrive at Kaede like emotionally unavailable sushi lovers with our guard up, untrusting and bracing for disappointment.
And then, after a stroke of magic, aka Chef Shinji, sushi in Portland was forever changed for us. We no longer had to travel 5 thousand miles to Tokyo to fulfill what seemed to be an insurmountable craving. From the appetizers to the nigiri to the ambiance to the pillow talk with Chef Shinji while sitting at the bar, WOW. Every bite was fantastic and truly rivaled the sushi we had during our trip to Japan. The attention to detail and flavor profile of every piece of fish was unique and insanely fresh. We entered Kaede with a superiority complex and we left grateful and eager to return. Arigato gozaimasu!

Absolutely incredible. The sushi is next level and the tasting menu price for the quality is great. The service was also great and the chef was so sweet and a joy to chat with at the sushi bar. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Superior quality of fish, Presentation is excellent. The setting is small. the staff are minimal (Just the chef, the server, and one kitchen assistant) the setting is intimate. The menu is prix fixe and I savored everything I got. I do recommend the Chawanmushi add on if it's available.
David Barrett
Simply incredible. The new tasting menu is the best in portland.
We had the new tasting menu tonight and were not disappointed, the nigiri is some of the best in Portland.

Best sushi experience I've ever had. Monk liver is super good. Try it for reals.

Best sushi in pdx

Well, that settles it. This place lived up to the hype. It's a bit steep on price, but you are tasting sushi as God intended. Highly recommend for purists and connoisseur only. If you're unfamiliar and haven't had real sushi before, avoid it because unless you visit Japan, you'll never experience this level of quality anywhere else.
Best sushi in Portland period.
