Another awesome upscale sushi find! The food was delicious, the service was extremely well and friendly, and the prices were on point.
This place has a super cozy atmosphere which is great for dates!
A friend asked to meet there; I usually only eat sushi at Bamboo (I know!) but thought I'd give it a shot. It was lovely! I had the fish soup and my partner had the sizzling beef. My mom has sizzling veggies. I wish I hadn't been full at the end because I really wanted to try the foie gras ???? It's a great place if some of you want sushi and some want cooked food.
We ordered the Mardi Gras (our favorite), Flaming Jack, Dragon and Oregon Rolls. Miso soup and mixed tempura appetizer were very good. Our waiter was very attentive and the overall place had nice vibes. The space is small and was quiet before 6pm.
The sushi was absolutely fantastic! The baked lobster roll was delicious, and the nigiri was great (especially the surf clam, which more people need to see the light and try). Service was top-notch, and the vibe was nice. The music was kind of a Norah Jones/ acoustic remix of other great songs kind of vibe, which is literally what plays in my head. Overall, heavenly experience, wish I lived in Portland, hopefully be back one day ????
I went on a weeknight, and the service from the three female waitstaff who were there was far from commendable. I felt as if they were mocking us. The sushi quality overall was decent, but nothing impressive. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant wasn’t great either, and I was also bothered by the presence of fruit flies.
Up front: I'm not from Portland, but I am extremely familiar with the sushi omakase scene in Seattle. This tasted familiar!
We had a great time. I typically go for nigiri and chef's choice cuts, but the options for typical ready-to-serve rolls were delicious. We were treated well and even though we didn't sit at the bar they had a fantastic toro selection alongside some classic market selections. What I presume to be the owner came out and talked with us and it was very humbling! It is very scenically located next to a park and the neighborhood seemed so nice. We would definitely come back for another visit. Only giving it 4 stars because I feel like I'm cheating on our favorite sushi chef haha.
Yama was a nice spot to grab some sushi after walking around the area. Each dish we got, including the sake, was definitely good however nothing was a standout for us particularly for the prices. Would come back if I was in the area craving sushi, but wouldn't go out of my way to return.
Quick service. Delicious food. The spicy tuna roll and nigiri were delicious. Hot house sake was also good and was a perfect ending to our night on the town.
