Japanese izakaya lures city-dwelling gourmands to Hillsboro.

by Ashley Gartland

Suburban sushi fans and city dwellers with global palates travel to this historic library-turned-Japanese restaurant to satisfy their cravings for fresh sashimi, delicate sushi rolls and expertly fried tempura. From their crowded seats in the tchotchke-filled basement dining room, patrons place orders for miso soup, gyoza and sukiyaki to accompany their sushi platters. Authentic dishes from the impossibly deep menu--plus a wide selection of sake and shochu--keep diners coming back to this Zagat-rated gem time and time again.
