    Somehow I go here all the time but had never checked in or left a review. Oops. Giving it a 5 because we go back again and again, but not necessarily because it's AMAZING. For sushi joint with a conveyor belt, it's a favorite. The prices are great and the quality is consistent. Oddly love some of the veggie rolls (Super Vegan is a fave), but mostly go for the tuna poke bowl with toasted sesame sauce. It's awesome. Service is... well you have to flag them down to get anything from the menu, but they're nice enough. Don't expect them to come to you other than to order drinks. The place is always clean and it scratches the sushi itch every time for a great price.

    My Boss at work introduced me to Akira Sushi and it's become our new favorite sushi joint. First of all, "The Rice." Wow. So tender and flavorful. This is a Belt Type Sushi place. Some people don't like belt Sushi. Good. More for us. There were so many choices. We tried a bunch of different Sushi and only 1 thing wasn't as awesome as the rest It wasn't awful. To us it was good but not great. Not a problem because of all the other things available. We ate so much. I can't wait to eat here again. The employees were all super helpful and nice. There is a "Claw Machine" here and that's cool. I saw a dad and his kid try to win prizes. Then when it was slow. The employees all started to come out and talk in Japanese about the claw machine. I wondered what their strategies were. It made me laugh. It's a modest design inside the restaurant. Nothing fancy but clean and organized seats, more than you'd think there would be but not crowded. There are only a couple pictures on the wall. They're of samurai cat's with tattoos. I laughed out loud when I saw them. That's when I knew I had found my new favorite sushi place. That and the cost wasn't very much for how much I ate and drank. I know we'll be back Not as often as I would like but that's OK. I can wait.

    It's a conveyor belt sushi place. Everything tastes like an old California roll. Just skip it.

After asking for a sample of the clam chowder which he should have offered after I asked how thin of a consistency it was. Didn't ask if my order was to-go, so he was miffed when I asked him to put it on a container. The Tidal Boar'd oysters were so salty, they were almost inedible. I only ate them , because they were $4 each. They were beautiful, but akin to a salt lick. I don't know if that was the trout roe, or what. Needed way less salt, more acidity, and the heat wasn't there at all. Visual stunning, but horrendously salty. The 3 pc rockfish was pretty good. Clean, , fresh, and flakey. Seasoned well. Good fries, too. The clam chowder was different. Potatoes cooked through, full of flavor. All that for $42+tip. Might be back, if the server from yesterday isn't there. Might not be back at all, too many places to get the same thing with way better service. Never informed we ordering that I wouldn't be able to take the oysters to go. Don't know if that's posted. Good fish, indifferent service. Nary a thank you , whatsoever. Sucky service.

We came on Friday, 9/25, with my parents and my son, hoping to enjoy some fried rice and a nice meal together. We were seated quickly, and the restaurant was not busy. Ken took our order, but from the beginning, his attitude toward us felt unwelcoming. I noticed that he seemed much friendlier and more welcoming toward other customers, which made me uncomfortable and left me wondering if we were being treated differently because we are Asian. I tried to ignore it because we were hungry and just wanted to enjoy our meal. However, my son then told me that he did not like the taste of the complimentary water. As a mother, I went back to our rental car and brought in a half-full bottle of Smartwater that we already had with us. When I came back into the restaurant, Ken rudely told me, in front of other customers, that outside drinks were not allowed. I explained that my son did not like the taste of the water they provided, but Ken insisted that we purchase a drink from the restaurant. I also pointed out that there was no sign on the entrance or anywhere that we could see stating that outside drinks were not allowed. Even if this is the restaurant's policy, it could have been communicated politely and respectfully. What bothered me most was not the policy itself, but the way I was treated. I felt singled out and embarrassed in front of other customers. I also noticed that Ken appeared much warmer and friendlier toward customers of other ethnicities, which made the experience even more uncomfortable for my family. Ken, if you are the owner or manager, I hope you take this experience seriously and remind your staff that every customer deserves to be treated with the same respect and courtesy, regardless of their background or appearance. You never know what someone may already be going through, and a little kindness can make a big difference. The other employees we interacted with were much nicer and welcoming. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I would rather support other local restaurants when visiting Portland. I have also attached photos showing that there was no visible notice at the entrance regarding a no-outside-drinks policy. I still gave him a 15% tip coz my family and I are not like that.
