Sushi Kuni & Izakaya West Linn

We love this place! We eat here regularly, and truly enjoy the food, cocktails, service, and ambiance. The black cod miso yaki is our favorite dish - it's delicious and I highly recommend it. The veggie and shrimp tempura is the best I've ever had, with an interesting mix of eggplant, mushrooms, squash, lotus root, and onions - all lightly battered and served with a delightful dipping sauce (pour the dipping sauce on the black cod, it's so good). The cocktails, especially the Japanese 75 and the shiso gin drink (I can't think of the name), are well-balanced and mixed properly, and are very yummy. I tell everyone I know to try this place! Some of the food can seem adventurous if you're not familiar with Japanese fare, but it's all delicious and beautifully presented. Finally, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the owner is a very sweet and funny lady. All around, Sushi Kuni is a great dining experience and I highly recommend checking it out.

This restaurant is an absolute gem. Unassumingly located on top of Salamo Road in West Linn, the ambience is gorgeous, the food unparalleled and the staff warm and helpful. Their fish is consistently fresh, the sushi chef flexible to accommodations, the bar stocked with high end liquors and wines. A great date night venture, or sit at the sushi bar or proper bar for wonderful service and food.

Beautiful, diverse and extremely fresh fish selection. Skilled and knowledgeable sushi chefs. Haven’t enjoyed sashimi this much since Chicago.

Quality Japanese food. Like most of the reviews here. The price is on the higher end. Consider getting tv fish and ingredients overseas. It’s not unreasonable. We have lunch specials and it’s not a bad deal for ~$25. Needless to say, it’s premium dinning not like other cheap Japanese sushi experience. We really enjoyed it and will come back for dinner next time.

Me and my husband are obsessed with this place. We just found it on Google because it was close to our friend’s house. The fish was very fresh and they had a really good selection of nigiri. A bit on the pricier side, but it was such good quality.

We also ordered the miso black cod and the glaze and was cooked to perfection. They also did a great job on the Agadashi tofu.

The atmosphere and vibe was great and relaxing, while being family friendly.

We for sure are coming back, only wish it was closer to us.

By far, it is the freshest and highest quality sushi in Oregon.

It was okay overall. By no means bad, but I wouldn't write home about it. Tried it after hearing a rave review. For being so close to the coast, it was overpriced if anything. I've had equal if not better sushi in CO for much less. I'd go back if not for the price which I can't justify. A California roll shouldn't NEVER be $12, even if they're using real crab.

This restaurant is just like eating sushi in Japan and I’ve lived in Japan! The food is excellent, along with the service and the environment.

We were there on Mother's Day. They were busy so the service was very slow. My husband's rice and teriyaki chicken was cold and came out to the table way before any of the other food. He finished his before any of us had gotten anything. They also forgot part of our order.
We had to ask twice to get all that we ordered.
Food was very good when we finally got it. I'll try the restaurant again, just not on a holiday.

Very good place with amazing quality. Very pricy but worth a visit on special occasions. One critique, boba pearls were very hard and difficult to chew. Definitely needed to be soaked longer or something. Even gave my guest and I free miso soap. Nice, quiet spaces to sit.
