It's small but very cute, and there was no problem finding a place for two people to sit. I'm not a big fan of the kiosk ordering, and we also had to flag someone down at the end when we needed to-go containers. Our food came promptly and was exactly as ordered, the person who delivered it was very pleasant, but nobody checked on us after that. Just a slight annoyance. The food itself was very nicely presented and tasted delicious. In addition, serving sizes were so generous that we ended up with enough leftovers for two more meals. So while the prices aren't cheap, they're a pretty good value.

The onigiri is art. And the service is always polite and professional. Always. I was physically at the restaurant the night these one star people were there. From what I could tell sitting at the bar and observing the ID in question, it looked fliiiimssy even from where I was sitting. I kinda get both sides ya know , sure one person in the group wants a drink w dinner but dude just tough it out and have your dinner. Instead they popped off and all started fussing and being entitled and it was just gross. I was enjoying a fantastic dinner but that table was like trying to take the stage. I think they ended up storming out and one girl like stomped off and said she was keeping her cup !! lol I worked in food a long time ago. And I've worked in cannabis under the watchful eye of the olcc so I'm on the servers side. Don't take chances and don't listen to these kids scramble for a secondary ID. Sketch. Go to obon. Get the Sando. Enjoy.

Rather than communicating professionally or reviewing additional identification, staff escalated the interaction, culminating in my friend being called a "bish." I can't recommend this restaurant.

Brunch in Portland, Oregon…read more.. After I read reviews about Portland's Chinatown, I searched for a dimsum place outside of Chinatown and found Jade Rabbit I liked the name of the place and saw that they had two kinds of rabbit-shaped dimsum! Another cool thing is that their menu is vegan... that means that I don't have to worry about dairy products that give me pain. We found free street parking about a half a block away and waited for Jade Rabbit to open at 11am. We didn't have reservations, but we're seated immediately. The decor was great! I enjoyed looking at all of the Rabbit figurines! The furniture was colorful and the convenient restroom had interesting decorations, too! The service was okay. Some items were not available and our server recited the list that included chow funn. Shucks! She came back later and said that the chow funn was, in fact, available... yay! Our server seemed a bit nervous as her hand shook and placed the special menu upside-down... LOL! We won't bite you! She recommended the Ube Jam drink - it was made with coconut cream... yes! The chow funn was a bit bland. We added some soy sauce. The Puto Pao Bunny Bao had an unusual flavor - maybe the brown sugar can be omitted because the black garlic and vegan pork might be fine without it? The Jade Rabbit Dumplings also could be more savory. Something was off... and the filling was a bit sparse. Anyway, maybe we could have ordered better, but we got what we wanted! Thank you for the cute food! Note: 22 percent is added to the bill - so no need to tip.

The green machine is always a crowd favorite, but the sauce is a little sweet for me. That being said, most of those I know put the Green machine in their top two! I usually go for my tried and true Rivers and Streams! It is a delicious, savory focus that is simple and balanced. Their miso soup is not to be missed--it is very well balanced. So far the only menu item I've tried that I haven't absolutely loved in their crispy tofu, but their crispy rice started is phenomenal. I will always be coming back for the great service, relaxing atmosphere, and consistently delicious food. It has been my go to since I got to Portland!

We rate this place as more traditionally Japanese than you might expect in Portland. Tables and…read morechairs are very comfortable and well spaced. We haven't eaten here in a while and never in the summer. In the darker, cooler months this is a place that entertains a packed, loud, happy crowd. The food is really good, lots of choice, the service is equally on point. So, a great evening on our cold dark winters. We dropped in last week, so July. Same range of food, maybe fewer items but what we had was more than fine. The service was personable, helpful and the food was delicious. But way, way quieter - turns out Summer is their slow time, more like a neighborhood place and less like party central. We enjoy both, but the slower months allows more focus on the menu. And there might be something not to your taste but given the range you will find a dish that you will enjoy. So, pick your adventure, we like both and you will be happy with the food, the ambiance and the service either way.

Food and service is fine. However management can treat customers a bit better…read more Ordered a takeout out order and waited a bit long than usual. It's lunch rush so no complaints. Ordered a teriyaki chicken and was placed on top of my other food. The food was placed on my passenger seat and left. Teriyaki had too much sauce and box probably shifted on my way home. Sauce leaked and went all over inside and melted the paper bag, leaking all over my seat. Phoned the store to let management know about the food having too much sauce. And they would not acknowledge the problem. Kept insisting they packaged it well and my problem for not having my seat vertical. I was not looking for a refund or reimbursement. But management is too scared to admit a tiny mistake. Car has leather seats, so it's easy to clean. But there was enough sauce to go over the small ledge in the back of the seat into the felt that's under it. Car smells like teriyaki sauce for next week. Guess it's my luck and my problem.

There's not many tables only a few tables outside with no heating and a few inside good for small groups of 4 at the most. The noise level is average. Chirashi sushi deluxe (5/5): absolutely amazing.

The furikake added that extra bit of umami. Umai! Tap to pay is accepted. It makes me sad to see this place go. Overall, Kashiwagi has some delicious sushi and fish at reasonable prices.

WOW!!! That is my first thought after my lunch yesterday at Laurelhurst Market. I had been touring…read morethe cathedral of music, at Music Millennium and I asked the gentleman at the counter where was a good spot to eat. He recommended Laurelhurst, and he was right on. I have been on a Reuben kick, and the best remains at Goose Hallow. But this was a close second, as it was great. I had a half sandwich, and I am glad I did, as it was quite enough. I had the Monsignor Murphy, which featured lots of House Made Pastrami, Swiss Cheese, Sauerkraut and Russian Dressing. I typically like a Reuben on marbled rye, as they served it on a Griddled Como Bread...and it was great. I didn't get her name at the order counter, but she was so friendly and engaging as well. Since this was my first time to the restaurant, she was able to provide me with a wealth of information. I will be back...and you can count on that.

We did end up sending it back (which i hate doing) and got it redone adding another 10isj minutes of waiting on top of our already pretty long wait (but again it was busy so we didnt rlly care much for the wait) but i did get full off of the sides by the time the redo came out The redo definitely tasted alot better, it didnt taste burnt which was good but in general didnt really have much flavor. I will say the potatoes were good, bell peppers were okay, unfortunately nothing was great....we ended up spending around ~$210 for two people for a meal that really did not satisfy either of us, we'll maybe give it another try on a less busy day but it was rough considering this was also our anniversary dinner
