Truth be told, my fiance and I can be a bit pretentious when it comes to sushi. We moved up to the Portland area a little over a year ago and were certain we'd be blown away by the sushi up here, with Portland's close accessibility to fresh fish and it's "Foodie" reputation. Suffice it to say, we were more than a little disappointed with what we found. We had searched diligently all over the area for a satisfactory restaurant, and found ourselves quite flabbergasted that the best sushi we had previously was in Reno (great fish in the desert, who'd have thought). Then, we found Tokyo. We've only been there once, but the experience much exceeded that of what we expected. The food was amazing, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was comfortable. Either our standards have dropped since moving up here, or we truly have discovered a gem.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a quick fix for sushi on sunday afternoon. When we walked in to see the place completely empty we should have taken the cue. The staff was fairly attentive - but again, we were the only people in the place. Being a little skeptical of the establishment from the start we ordered a pretty safe meal - spicy pork domburi, a mixed tempura bento and side order of maguro and spicy tuna roll. The maguro was decent - a little small cut for the price but fresh. The spicy tuna tasted a little off to me - maybe too much mayo. We received a little salad that was wilted the soy beans cold. The Domburi was awful - the pork was overcooked and chewy. Spicy??? not so much - very bland. I ended up eating about 4 bites and then couldn't take anymore. My girlfriend had the tempura bento and seemed to like it more than I liked my meal - but she did comment that she expected more than 1 shrimp in a "mixed" tempura (her's had 5 veggies and one shrimp). Her box also had california rolls which had way too much mayo mixed in. I think the most telling sign of the quality of this meal is the fact that we left with having eaten less than half what we were served (and we were starving when we entered). To add to this restautants problems in the kitchen, the food is pretty expensive; especially for what we got. $30 lunch for two people with no alcohol. I would not recommend this place to anybody.

Randomly stopped in this restaurant. Had a sushi roll and some Ramen. I was pleasantly surprised that I was brought an appetizer salad for free, and enjoyed it. Staff were very friendly, and menu had alot to choose from. Sushi was fresh and delicious, and the sushi chef made sure I was okay with sushi, even though I wasn't at the sushi bar. Ramen was pretty good, although I wasn't offered typical Japanese pepper for it. Staff and sushi chef were Koreans and not Japanese, though most Americans might not realize this. Still was pretty authentic and worth a stop.
