“The food was amazing. Yes the price is a little higher than other places but the quality is the best. I have yet to find a sushi restaurant that serves it as good as here and it's not even close. The service was top notch as well. I will be coming back here and recommending it to others as well. A++“
“Life is short! Please treat yourself kindly and get a reservation to this place! I sat at the sushi bar and I really enjoyed watching the master chef skillfully prepare some exquisite food, every action was like carefully orchestrated! Not only did he have to create an edible delicacy out of chunky piece of fish, but also turn it into a piece of art, from selecting the plate, to adding all the fine details onto the fish, the subtle flavors and the harmony! And I got to watch it all happen in front of my eyes! This place is near where I live, so the situation is quite dangerous now, lol!“
“First of all, wow! Best poke bowls I’ve ever had. My friend and I came here and ordered the Tomyum Salmon Poke and the Aburi Salmon Don, along with some baked mussels. The fish is so fresh and they even give you free miso soup with every bowl and a little utensil bag with a hand towel and toothpick. I also recommend the onigiri (perfect snack). I’ll definitely be back soon!“
“The Hotate or Sea Scallop sushi with yuzu pepper marmalade was out this world good. We also ordered the Guac N' Roll & French Quarter Roll. Excellent flavors. We didn't even need soy sauce. The Guac N' Roll has a unique presentation and the roll was balance & on point. I will recommend Yoshi to anyone interested in sushi!“
“This might be the best poke bowl I've ever had! I opted for brown rice, salmon & scallops, ginger infused soy sauce, and jalapenos. The seasoning and sauce added to the poke bowl - it did not dominate the taste. The generous portions of salmon and scallops were very fresh. The whole bowl was very filling. Growing up on Oahu, I've had my share of poke bowls. This was definitely the best poke bowl I've had here in the Pacific Northwest and maybe even the best poke bowl I've ever had.“
“Highly recommend the food. The service staff seem to be evolving and not particularly well trained. Our server was ten days old. Part of the order forgotten. But, when asked about items on the menu, “I really don't know” was the standard answer. But you can trust this, everything was so fresh and yummy.“
“Had a lovely early dinner here before a show at Moda on a Thursday. Service was prompt, extremely knowledgeable, and everyone was so kind and helpful. I have the palate of a five year old child so I stuck to the basics but the others in my party had much more elaborate selections that they loved! All around delicious and fresh dishes, plus you can balance out your meal with some donuts, right next door ?“
“The best poke in town! A must try!! I love how fresh everything is and their big selection. They give a large portion too and the service is always friendly! I also love that they are using reusable cups, spoons, bowls, but wish that they would consider reusable forks and chopsticks as well.Dietary restrictions: A great place to eat gluten-free. Make sure you tell them at the beginning!“
“I am convinced that Portland is experiencing a sushi renaissance, and Koya Sushi is a shining example of this culinary revival. Regarding fish quality, I'd place it in the top 5 (at least) in the Portland metro.On both my visits so far, service was outstanding, the fish was exceptionally fresh and well-prepared, and the overall dining experience fantastic. You definitely won't find better Ikura or Takoyaki around here, that's for sure.Any sushi enthusiast should consider it a must to visit Koya.“
“SERIOUSLY so impressed. Came in today and let the kind gentleman to surprise us. We also ordered the uni lovers bowl. Total for us was $198 but the sushi was definitely some of the best and most fresh we had. We will be back. Price reflects quality. We are SO happy to finally try this restaurant.“
“Hands down the best dinner experience I had on my trip to Portland - and I went to Han Oak be Laangbaan so really the bar was high! Intimate but approachable setting, great service, and quality fish. Our chef was thoughtful and informative without being too overbearing, and we were able to have a nice family meal while learning about the ingredients and engaging with the experience. Would recommend and will be back! Not cheap but worth the price point.“
“Inviting ambiance. Polite servers. Amazing food. Easy parking lot parking. I stopped by at 4pm on a Sunday afternoon and it was surprisingly busy. I was quickly seated and ordered the Sake Aisuru Don and edamame. The Sake Aisuru Don (salmon sashimi, salmon belly, and minced salmon over rice) was extremely fresh. The meats were so refreshing and filling. The soft and silky salmon meats made my tastebuds sing. The edamame was portioned well and the light salt was nice. I'm pleased to have had an experience that makes me want to return!“
“Love love love EVERYTHING about Sushi Mazi. Food, absolutely delicious! My most favorites are classic aged ahi tuna, blue fin tuna top with black garlic, salmon skin appetizer and sushi salad. Will be able to stop in Portland without coming here. I understand why they have so many regulars, the staffs and owners are so warm and wonderful. Recommend trying their wide range of sake. Cheers!“
“We finally decided to try this place since they recently opened to support local businesses and we are so glad we did! We did not try any of the Sushi but the noodle dishes and the beef brisket noodle soup were delicious and flavorful. Everything was very tasty and the portions were large. We will be ordering from here again for sure and we’ll try their Sushi too next time. Definitely worth a try if you are looking for tasty noodle dishes.“
“Anyone can seemingly make sushi seem better by making it more complex, but the real test is whether they can take the simple and make it excellent. Sushi-Ki-ichi does just that. They stick to the simple offerings, leading to an experience that feels less Americanized than other Japanese restaurants. That's not to say I don't love some level of creativity, but you don't need it here. That's because the family that owns Sushi Ki-ichi wants to create an authentic meal - a notion that was confirmed for sure when we had a conversation with the owner. In fact, they take quality to the next level with their equipment and efforts they take to make sure that what they serve is the highest quality, including specific freezers for the fish. We didn't try Sushi Ki-ichi for the first couple of years because we figured that the previous restaurant, a Chinese buffet that had gone downhill and fallen off the cliff, had rebranded and reopened as something new. Now I feel that for those first couple of years, we missed out. This has quickly become my favorite place in Portland. I look forward to any trips I take across town from Vancouver to Tigard, and make a point to stop in and grab a bite.“
“Go here for an authentic old school Japanese sushi house experience! Ingredients are top notch. With specials featuring the best of the catch. I look forward to going back with a large group. And straying a bit further off of the standard items.“
“I got the lunch combo with two rolls with miso soup and added the cucumber salad. Food was good, staff were nice. There is bar like seating and table seating also. There are signs asking for you to remove your dishes when you are finished eating, many customers did not observe/acknowledge this. Decor is very nice, light, and colorful. Loved the fake cherry blossom tree with the tiny table and bench and the design on the bowl. Nice details“
“We had the hotel california and the ocean bounty way. They both tasted great and each one would be more than enough for a meal for one person.I really hope enough people discover this place to keep it in business - there are a lot more rolls I want to try!“
“Fresh!!! So good. Very busy but that's great because you know the food is moving and fresh. Excellent options and everything we've tried was delicious. Great place to try new dishes, too. Service is super friendly and informative.Vegetarian options: Easy veggie options“
Sushi • $$
“Clean, cute sushi shop with friendly service and interesting sushi rolls. Rolls are large and portions are generous, though a bit heavy on the rice. Seating available for dine in, though we saw many customers ordering take out. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and would consider coming again!“
“Some of crazy good sushi. Excellent salads and sashimi. Really clean and simple menu. Nice and helpful staff, even when they are busy and limited on space. It's more of a date spot than a family spot ( only because space is limited). They are worth the wait if busy. I can't wait to go back.“
“Super stoked to have a solid Chinese takeout style spot so close to me. The lunch special was a great price and the portions were perfect. The food was quality. I’m a sucker for crispy beef and was super pleased with my order.Crab puffs was killer as well“
“We noticed this place on a random trip to the post office. It has a chill vibe with the graphics, open concept and music they play.We ordered veggie tempura and a salad to start. I ordered the Komo lemonade and added sake to booze it up!Rolls were spicy jalapeño roll, crunchy roll and the Hawaiian! All were delicious. We would return here!Vegetarian options: No specific vegetarian section but many options.“
“I don’t remember what these orange wontons were but I remember they were really good! I didn’t get a picture of the sushi; must have been too excited ?The ramen and sushi were good as well.Went at lunch time and had decently quick service.“
“Everything. This is not just going to dinner. This is a dining experience. It’s a small reserved venue. Yes it’s spendy, but worth every penny. You’ll try food you never thought you try. The mostly seafood menu it so well prepared. Plus you can watch the prepared each course. A fun night.“
“We have enjoyed Yoko's sushi for almost 20 years. The fish is always fresh, and the combinations are delicious. We love Taka's Tuna, Hamachi nigiri, Thai roll and Samon nigiri. I recommend arriving early, sitting at the sushi bar and watching Yoko work. Try some of the affordable sakes available. We've enjoyed every one we tried.“
“i think this is the best poke as far as value goes in the city. you get so much in a bowl for about the price you’d pay anywhere else. super fast and the fish is definitely quality. i got the northwest bowl and will gladly be back to get it again. such a good mix of ingredients!“
“I would love to give this place five stars. They're are often not open during their scheduled business hours. I've been here multiple times in the last few weeks at 12:00, which is when they say they open yet they are closed. I'm sitting here right now at 12:15 and their food truck is closed.“
“Just finished ished another meal here and it was great again. Food, service, and atmosphere is wonderful. Music playing in the background isn't too loud. Fish is really fresh and rice to fish ratio is on point. Love the staff, they are really attentive.“
“Sushi and small plate restaurant in the west side downtown area. The sushi rolls here are quite tasty, and the crunchy rice is better than most places.The ingredients all taste quite fresh which can make or break good sushi, but overall it’s nothing mind blowing. The garlic chicken was pretty mediocre. The tempura vegetables were nice and lightly fried, the sauce provided was adequate.Overall I’m glad that I tried it out, but considering the pricing to quality ratio I can say that I’m glad I went but I wouldn’t go again.“
“Sushi burrito? That may not sound appealing at first (it didn’t to me) but Rollin Fresh gets it right.This is not your typical sushi place but that’s what makes it special. Instead of ordering and eating sushi piece by little piece, they put a lot of sushi together for you and wrap it so you can eat it like a burrito.This is an excellent and surprisingly good Portland find.“
“Small place. Some outdoor seats available. But today, some folks from my office made our orders online and some people went to pick it up. I ordered a Tiger roll and California roll. Everything tasted fresh and the portions were generous. Very worth the price for the quality.“
“Last week I was at the Convention Center for a conference, and a few of us came here for lunch. I ordered a combo platter for lunch, which included a Salmon Belly skewer. Seriously, it was the best salmon I've ever had. Just now, a week later, I thought of it again and had to call the restaurant to find out what it was. Go here, eat, be happy!“
“This place is magnificent. The atmosphere is exactly what I look for in a place, but most almost importantly is the delicious sushi that they craft in the kitchen. The Unicorn role is truly a Unicorn, I've never found such an exquisite tasting role of sushi. I don't know what they do with that thing, but it's actually a flavorful experience I can only get from a fine dining restaurant. So many complexities that exist within that role. The green machine is another favorite. Whatever goes into making that sauce is just delicious!Just as important is the service. Jared that works behind the bar has always been so incredible. He is a genuinely kind guy and cares about you as if you'r e one of his closest friends (and this is only my second time having him as a server at the bar in the past year!). I'm so glad he still works at bamboo sushi because I remembered his warm welcoming and service from the last time I was there.The only thing that has kept me from coming here more often is the price of sushi, but I can say that the price is justified. I also think that they either dropped the prices since the last time I came there . . . Or I can now afford it, not sure!I always talk VERY highly of Bamboo Sushi and it's my #1 recommendation for Sushi when people visit Portland and it's because of your trifecta of delicious food, incredible staff, and wonderful ambience.Vegetarian options: Green Machine“
“Decided to try this place since it's kind of close to my work, and all the other sushi places around have been kind of disappointing (either too expensive or lacking quality). I got a California roll and an order of gyoza - calling it in was more cost effective than using Grub Hub/Door Dash etc. Service was super fast, prices AWESOME, and food was delicious! So much so, I ordered it two days in a row. Very impressed with this place, and I will without a doubt be back again.“
“Follow up to my visits here.When restaurants try to use sticky rice in place of sushi rice. It is not worth revisiting.Not sure what happened but I was disappointed.First time eating here, great choice!! Delicious sushi, and fresh. Prices reasonable too.이 맛있어요. 그들은 한국말을 한다“
“Came here for happy hour and was able to be seated right away. It was summer time so we sat in their breezy patio area. We ordered a few items from the HH menu and regular sushi menu. The fish was fresh. Our service was fantastic! Pro tip: HH is all day Sunday.“
“They reopened under parking structure 2 right next to La Casita and Cafe Ole!Their food is pretty solid! Some of the better sushi burritos for sure. Tried the Sumo Kick and it's very tasty. Super fresh ingredients and everything went together very well. Great portion for the price.Totally would be back to try more!“
“Went here for the first time this week and it was AMAZING. We came in during a week day later in the night and we practically had the place to ourselves, our waiter Karra had superb service. The food was delicious to say the least and the menu had a good variety of options to choose from. The atmosphere was also great, very calm, dim, and somewhere you can get lost talking while eating for hours. We ordered veggie ramen, hello kitty (must try), and miso soup!“
“Still one of the best values for lunch downtown. Good portions and everything I have had over the years has been delicious. Favorites of mine would be asparagus chicken and mushrooms chicken.Only downsides is one man show cooked to order so can be slow when busy, still in a part of town that need some clean up and cart itself is not pretty so easy to overlook.“
“My husband and I love this place. We've been here several times and the staff is always nice, the drinks are good, and the food is delicious. We often just get sushi, but the one time we got the blackened cod and it was DELICIOUS. The atmosphere is great, with large old school windows. It's all on the second floor.Vegetarian options: They have a good selection of vegetarian rolls.“
“Unsure if it was the owner or manager (the man with the red hat) who greeted us, but their hospitality was exceptional. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious. Despite it being after hours, he kindly offered to take additional orders before we left if we wanted. Coming from out of state, we've never experienced such quality like this.“
“I wish I could give Sushi Town more than a 5 star review. For a conveyer belt sushi place, the fish is ALWAYS super fresh. We absolutely love the place and people! I recommend trying the seared salmon, fire storm roll (if you like spicy), sashimi combo.Dietary restrictions: My fiance is celiac gluten free and they always accommodate us with making rolls and sashimi with now sauce.“
“Not a day goes by that I don't think about dining at Sensei Sushi. The staff is incredible and the sushi will have your tastebuds line dancing. I often eat lunch here and love the "vibe." Its quiet, no-fuss ambiance makes me feel at home - plus they're always playing great movies on the TV.“
“The place is one of the best sushi spots in the area. Huge sake barrels from above really enhanced the atmosphere. Service was amazing compared to other restaurants.Sushi was incredible, fresh, and presented well. The flavor was amazing, and everything complimented each other nicely.Parking: Parking around the area was decent since you had to park on the surrounding streetsKid-friendliness: There are some choices on the menu that kids will enjoy, and the environment is very kid-friendly“
“We were walking through the neighborhood on our way to the bus and saw this really interesting pod at the corner of Division and 35th. Since we were hot and it was lunch time we decided to try LETS ROLL and are thrilled that we did. We had the Very Vegan Burrito. I couldn't understand why Bo asked us if we wanted wasabi and ginger (again, I was hot and hungry and obviously not paying attention) so we said sure. The burrito was outstanding and the wasabi was just the kick to put it over the edge! When I went back to tell them how wonderful it was I got a side of Taro Chips and Guac, and must admit to being a little leery about having ginger in my guac. It had to be the best guac I've had in a long, long time! Bottom line, super good food, seriously nice people - can't wait to go back again!“
“I tried SushiLove for the first time today (Oregon City location) and I am hooked! The service and food were amazing. I couldn't decide what I wanted to try first, so I ordered a half order of the Glazed and Confused, half order of the Mother of Dragons and an order of the Starry Inari. SO SO good! My new go-to place. As someone with Celiac, I love that I can have this Sushi without any worries! Even the little soy sauce packet was gluten free. ❤“
“We took our order to go, but the atmosphere was pleasant while we waited. The service and folks working was just fantastic. Really good kind people. The food was good, don’t get me wrong. It’s just not so good that I’ll go out of my way to get it again.“
“We ordered sushi burritos from this food cart, which had recently increased their prices by $5. We were hesitant to order at first, but we caved because we were craving them and one of us had never tried them before.The service was great! They were out of chicken, but they offered to make us a custom burrito for a small upcharge. However, they later found that they had enough chicken after all, so we didn't have to pay extra.The wrap itself didn't hold up very well. It came apart a few times, which made eating the burrito a bit messy. The seaweed didn't wrap around the sushi fully, which also contributed to the messiness. The parchment paper was also a bit weak, which made it difficult to hold the burrito together.Overall, the food was delicious and filling. However, we don't think it's worth the new price of $15 for a food cart item. We would be more likely to order it again if it was priced at $12. The price increase from $10 to $15 is a bit steep, and we think it's not quite worth the extra money for a food cart item.“
“Overall great experience and the only reason I didn't give it the 5th star was just based on bias of beverage selection. It was very limited and that is about it. The place is cozy and the staff was friendly and the food was awesome. I had the spider roll and it was delicious. Everything tasted so delicious and fresh. Flavor packed and fresh. The crunch roll was also delicious. Soft, packed with flavor and the crab was delicious. Just to be clear this place is great just would like to have a larger beverage selection.“
