As the sushi aficionado I can tell you that I know good sushi from bad - or from mediocre. I was…read morequite surprised at the unique approach and twist that they put on sushi here from a Portuguese standpoint. Not only is the fish extraordinarily fresh the unique way that they put together their marquee and Tecca Maki as well as the net Garre and other specialties was quite impressive. We got the sushi combo and added some additional chef specialties. The extraordinarily fresh characteristics of the fish combined with how they put ot together was worth the visit! I would highly recommend sushi aficionados to put this on the "must-visit list".... Grab yourself a gin drink (or wine if you are so inclined) but make sure to consume some of the bait.

The outdoor seating is cozy and perfect for dinner in the evening. The menu had a nice blend of Western and Japanese fare. Seeing as such a large portion of the menu revolved around sushi and fish, we opted for the 30pc sushi/sashimi combo and the shrimp tempura. The latter had good flavor and the sauce was tasty but the shrimp were a bit soggy in the mouth and evident by the indented grid marks on the shrimp crust made by it sitting on the bottom of the fry basket. The sushi platter was not what we expected. An assortment of sashimi(which was superb!) and then two nigiri, an assortment of maki sushi and abnormally green wasabi with no bite. While rolls are technically sushi, one usually expects nigiri and sashimi for a sushi/sashimi combo unless a roll is listed on the menu as being part. Half the maki were ok and half were TERRIBLE. Cream cheese and syrupy pomegranate do not belong on sushi. Cream cheese and fruit jam do not belong on sushi. Out of the ordinary sushi SHOULD BE LISTED. My guess is perhaps the chef wanted to impress with his/her own style and maybe being the rare place with sushi, it works in the neighborhood. It's a real pity...the quality of the fish was great via the sashimi and the two pieces of nigiri were very good. Just using the fish simply and traditionally would be better. If it weren't for the ambience and service, this place would be 1 star. If you like unusual sushi and/or cream cheese, then this is the place for you.

October 14, 2023. Saturday. Lunch…read more I told my wife, we had to eat sushi in Porto. They are so close to the ocean, I was convinced it would be much fresher than anything we'd eaten in the deserts of New Mexico. On our tour of the Sandeman port wine cellars, we ran into a group that highly recommended Kanpai from a prior visit. Kanpai has a wonderful view of the Douro River. It was a 20-minute Uber ride from Sandeman. We ordered 2 porto tonicas (13 euros each), which came in generous glasses and tasted super refreshing. We ordered two of the salmon and shrimp Furai (6.90 euros each) and the sakura sashimi, a combination of 20 slices for 21 euros. The Furai Temaki wraps tasted delicious and they were generous with the salmon. Sashimi slices were large and thick, but they weren't as fresh as I expected. Service was fast, at least the wraps and drinks came out fast. Sashimi took about 15 minutes, but that's expected if they aren't pre-cut slices, which they should never be. A great view of the river, fast service, good prices, but I am subtracting one star because the sashimi didn't taste super fresh. Maybe just visited here on an off day?
