Came on a Saturday afternoon for lunch, and they do not disappoint! We sat in the cozy dining area with a great view of the dog. It took a little bit of time to receive our order, but it was worth the wait. We shared the rainbow roll, neskowin, and crispy shrimp rolls. The fish was fresh and rolls were thick. Self service for water and utensils. Bonus points for the cute plates! read more

Love this spot! My husband and I made a stop here for lunch. We came towards the end of their lunch period but they sat us and we were able to enjoy a meal! Their bowls are unique and very flavorful. We enjoyed how balanced they were! The fish portion was nice and we really liked the clams we ordered! Service was friendly and the vibe of the restaurant was pleasant! If we come back to Portland we'd eat here again! read more

Love this place! Cute hidden gem that we just had to try. From walking in and almost instantly feeling at home to the friendly faces and greetings when we walked in. I love how homey the place feels. I got the Unagi (eel) bowl and it was gigantic! And I was all for it. It was delicious and making my mouth water just talking about it. It came with some nori on the side so I was even more excited because I just kept making unagi hand rolls all night. On top of the crunchy shrimp roll I got. My belly was happy and full! And I even had a good amount of leftovers to eat at the hotel that night. My bff got the spicy bowl and the spicy tuna roll and she loved it. Because it was all gone and she didn't have leftovers to bring home. We are definitely coming back here next time we're in town. Love it!! read more

Really enjoyed our experience. We visited on a Fri around 6PM and ordered inside and were able to find a table outside on the sidewalk. They had local craft beer options (cans), which was a nice surprise. My bride ordered Salmon Bowl ($20) and she said it was both fresh and delicious! I went with the Spicy Tuna Roll ($10) and Tuna Nigiri ($11) and was very pleased with my selections. Casual vibe and atmosphere. This place gets my vote! read more

This is such a cute sushi spot. I love that it's more casual and you order at a counter and then they bring your food. Great for lunch. Calm atmosphere. Small restaurant but I came on a Saturday around 1:00 and it wasn't super busy. The avocado eel roll was great and the spam musubi also good. I liked how they cut it up to be more sushi roll like. Very unique. The rolls were pretty big too. My meal was 18$. Not bad for sushi. Service was great, employees very friendly. Good vibes here. They also have a cute dog that hangs out at the front :) read more

100 percent yes. I ordered take out from them kinda on a whim. I'm jet lagged, and had spent the last month in Japan so i ordered fully prepared to be disappointed. I was wrong. honestly one of the best sushi experiences I've ever had. I ordered the yellowtail bowl, and it's huge. I was able to share it. It's so good. A perfect mix of ingredients. The avocado hand roll? perfection. Spicy tuna??? AMAZING. Now the fatty tuna carpaccio. I ate this like I've never had food before. I inhaled this. I gobbled this up. 10/10 Will order again. If they were still open I'd be door dashing an order right now. I'll be stopping by for dining here soon. I can't wait to tell my family I found a spot to try when they get to the states that holds up to the sushi/poke in Japan. read more

Simple menu. We had dumplings, poke, sushi, sake, and Japanese gin. Excellent food. The staff were welcoming. Highly recommend.

Cute location, service is on the slower side. Food is great. I usually get their unagi avocado roll and one other as take out (and i do this several times a month). When I dine in, i try their sashimi or nigiris. All very good. Personally felt the fish was quite fresh. One thing that annoys me (and not something against the business)... is their hours are odd. I crave their food and often they aren't open. read more

Fish & Rice - Eel Avocado Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This is my go-to place when I'm craving sushi, mostly because I can count on pristine, fresh, clean fish. It's a casual environment (despite the high prices) and the sushi preparation is fast and beautifully presented. The chirashi bowl is the way to go for a variety of fish over rice, but just ordering your favorite nigiri is great too. They do have specialty rolls, which probably is more subdued than other places, but I think that's their point. They don't overdo things so that the fish's natural flavor shines through. There are casual options for lunch, like poke bowls. I also like their sake options from the refrigerated section. This is a great place for purist sushi lovers. read more

Quick Summary: - Most memorable place I ate in Portland, if you're a fan of fish dishes highly recommend - Casual dining atmosphere with high quality cuisine - Freshest quality fish ever tasted Throughout my visit in Portland, I went to many restaurants and this one, Fish & Rice, stood out to be the best place I have ever eaten. Months have passed as I write this review, and the memory is solid with positive aura. If I had the power, I would live in Portland just to eat Fish & Rice. This restaurant, from the exterior and interior, a very casual style. Simplistic furnishing of tables and chairs, natural colored decor, and for some (nice reason that tickles the gamer in me), a nostalgic gaming console. Inside, the interior is spacious, there is a pickup corner and an ordering corner. I do have to admit, I didn't know where to start. Thankfully, the staff noticed my confusion and they helped us. Later, when observing local guests, the moment they entered the restaurant they took a seat. If we were planning to order for takeout, we could order in the style we have done, which was go to the counter on the right. After doing the unorthodox by making our order at the takeout style but sitting at the tables to eat, we took a seat at the table closest to the food pickup table. My relative ordered the tuna poke bowl and I, who got curious and a fan of yellowtail, chose the kama. I've never had it before, so that piqued my interest. The dishes came at once, and the staff explained where the fish was sourced from. At this stage, I realized that this is no ordinary casual restaurant, when the ingredients are carefully explained. Our first bite we glanced at each other; we were blown away on the freshness of the fish. If I were to compare the freshness, it was as clear as fresh water. So clean, no faint fish or sea like after-taste lingered. I tried a little of the poke, and I would say this might be the best poke I have ever had in my life so far. For the kama, this was the perfect fish oil, and the meat was so tender on any area I ate on the fish. There is a large bone on this kama, but because it's so large it was easy to pick the meat off (the meat slid right off with just chopsticks). While the photo I took looks like the kama is small, it is a pretty big serving size. The rice bowl is a lot too, so I was content full with the dish. read more

Had a pleasure meeting the owner - such friendly and helpful person who cares a lot about customers and their experience. Nice atmosphere and loved the dog. The poke bowl flavors complemented well each other - crunchy, well seasoned, very fresh. Also love how close it is to the Washington park - every time I get takeouts from them I drive there and eat surrounded by nature. read more

Great to visit again - things have changed for the better! The chicken dumplings are seriously the best in town. The portions were big, very fresh rice, fish, and salad. Such a good high quality of food. I'll definitely be back. I always do takeouts but they're friendly and I never had to wait for my order. It's also never loud so a great place to eat in peace :) read more

we got a few rolls and a poke bowl; the ikura was crazy good ! the dining area was very cute and cozy. even on a busy night, they were timely and got everything right ! read more

The tuna bowl felt more like a salad than poke bowl as it was 75% leafy greens, 15% rice, and 10% tuna. It is not like a Hawaiian poke bowl which is something to keep in mind if you try it. That being said - the flavor of the bowl was great and I like the sauce/dressing, although I wish they added a bit more! The tuna is very fresh and the texture is incredibly smooth. If I come again in the future, I do plan on getting sushi instead. read more

For the 4th time I came to get my pick up order and it wasn't ready. This time, Was told, with no apology, that it would be ready 20 minutes after the time I had reserved, making me late. Hostess could not have cared less. Didn't apologize. Argued with me. Told me "it's not a big deal" multiple times. Asked me "what are you going to do about it" when I commented on her horrible attitude. They also are randomly closed when they are supposed to be open frequently. Last night was the last chance. Food also not as good as it used to be. Plenty of other places that have far better service. Skip it. read more

Nice location, mediocre food and subpar service. We got there as soon as they opened and there were only 2 other tables occupied, yet we still waited 35 min. Would not return nor recommend read more

I have come here many times and I am never disappointed! The Poké bowls are my favorite, but I also love their Nigiri and rolls. Everything is fresh, and not overly adorned in sauces and fried things. Feels a little bit more like a pure Sushi experience. Cute location with lots of natural light and pretty plants. Plus, being right off of 23rd there's a lot to see and do before or after lunch. read more

I'm shocked by the high ratings because this was one of the worst sushi places I've ever eaten at. The tuna on top of the Cosmopolitan roll was visibly dried out (see picture) and the yellowtail was slimy and smelly. Overall the flavors were completely bland. I also paid an extra dollar for the truffle salt on the edamame and not only did it not taste of truffle, it was barely salted at all. read more

I came here with my boyfriend one evening to try this spot out after seeing it on TikTok and I was pleasantly surprised! Here, you order at the counter and then grab a seat. The inside is clean, bright, and has quite a few seat options. We ordered the Deluxe Chirashi, Seared Sake, and Cosmopolitan Roll. The deluxe chirashi was a huge portion and all of the sashimi cuts were fresh, thick, and delicious. The seared sake was pretty standard (and good). And, the cosmopolitan roll was fun, a great size, and amazing. Overall, a great spot and I would come back. read more

A very solid sushi place with really beautiful decor. Prices are a bit mid but not bad for the quality you get. I really enjoy eating here. The layout for some things can be confusing though. My concerns are about the dog (cutest corgi ever) in the shop that freely roams behind the counter while food is being prepped. This is a health code violation, it is very concerning for people with animal allergies. Considering dog hair and dander can become airborne, sushi is already a high risk ingredient that requires lots of care. read more

This is fast becoming my favorite sushi restaurant in Portland. There aren't a lot of good ones. It's unfortunate. These guys rise to the top. I do like Syun in Hillsboro, but who wants to drive all the way out there? The pickled wasabi is something to experience. The Spicy bowl is a complete meal and something I could eat daily. I love this place, the people, and the doggies. read more

I have the honor of working nearby this place and every time I get it it is above and beyond. They never miss a beat here. They have amazing customer service and everyone is always raving about them in the neighborhood. Can say this is one of my favorite sushi spots in Portland. Also have to add how insanely fresh their fish is! Thanks for always hitting the spot! read more

So cute. Can't give five stars for anything where you have to eat at the counter but tbh the food and service are excellent and the space is sooo cute. I wish it were open more hours and it's a little pricey but such a sweet little spot. read more

I've been to Fish & Rice many times and have always had great experiences. The space itself is super bright, clean, and they even have an old Super Nintendo to play on. The service is always good & pretty quick. I also love their plates and decor inside the restaurant. I was sad to see that they stopped serving the Scallop poke bowl, as that was my go-to so I ordered the Spicy bowl instead. The Spicy Bowl, priced at $25 included real snow crab, salmon, spicy tuna, yellowtail, avocado, radish, jalepeno over sushi rice. I thought it was very delicious and cool that it had so many types of fish. Fish & Rice has consistently fresh food & excellent unique sauces. I would recommend the Firecracker sauce, which is essentially a more flavorful, spicier version of your typical spicy mayo. I have also ordered the Neskowin roll which has torched salmon and that was delicious! Only giving 4 stars because the prices have risen quite a bit since I started going in 2018. read more

I didn't even take a picture of my food- that's how excited I was to eat here given the rave reviews from my brother. The expectation was definitely met. Casual and no frills space, but so beautiful at the same time. I went with the chirashi bowl and it was perfect. The fish is amazing and their fresh wasabi was awesome. Prices are totally fair given the quality you're getting. Service was also amazing- we went in wanting Toro and their shipment wasn't there when we ordered, but it must have come while we were waiting because it showed up in our bowls! Amazing that the gentleman helping us remembered and added it to our order. read more

I was so excited to try Fish & Rice, and it did not disappoint. The bowls were soooo good! It is a special treat since it can get pricey and it's a bit farther than our usual sushi go-to's, but you get a good portion of quality fish, real crab, and top notch service. They truly care about their food and presentation. I took a few things to-go, and was delighted to see each cut of fish was labeled on the lid. For the husband and myself, we ordered: - Chirashi: beautiful layers of fish across sushi rice that can be a mixed bowl or take the fish off-the-top - Dragon Donburi: rich and creamy - Singing scallop shooters: briny and sweet with uni and ikura We could have honestly added 1-2 rolls since we tend to have big appetites, and I should have ordered some miso soup to accompany. But I got my daily dose of vitamin D and fatty fish oil. I hope we can be back soon! Follow them on Instagram to see their specials. read more

10/10 recommend! We can't wait to go back, the bowls were so good! The yellowtail bowl was fresh and had lots of different flavors from the tomatoes, jalapeño sauce and pineapple.

Fish & Rice is a quaint neighborhood sushi joint with fresh fish daily and specials highlighting said fish. They frequently feature decadent poke bowls that are truly a work of art. While they may not be the most affordable sushi in town, their quality is phenomenal. They have a few tables for indoor dining and sometimes outdoor seating if the weather allows. It is counter service with self-serve water and utensils, but the waiter was kind and friendly. When we went, he was bussing, delivering, and taking orders. We got the neskowin roll, toro roll, and salmon poke bowl. The fish was so fresh!! It just melted in my mouth, and you can taste the quality. Presentation was beautiful, and you can tell they treat sushi as art. Their dishes allow the fish to speak for itself; nothing is drenched in sauce or extra frills. Cozy and homey, Fish & Rice is a gem in NW Portland. Forgo the other chain sushi joints in Portland, and bid them a visit! read more

Such fresh food! This place is so good. I got the salmon bowl with the king salmon and everything was perfect. They only use Tamari instead of Soy Sauce which is amazing because one of my coworkers I went with gluten free. They're very accommodating and the service was perfect.

This review is just for the food as I got delivery and did not have any service interaction. I got the king salmon and toro donburi with uni for an extra $10. This was a bit expensive but the quantity of fish they gave me was very generous and the quality of the actual fish was stellar. I LOVE fresh fish and this bowl did not disappoint. The toro, king salmon, and uni were all divine. I think the picture kinda speaks for itself. read more

Visited from ATL and I was on a mission to eat as fresh and tasty as possible seafood and this place didn't disappoint on that front! I went in for lunch shortly after they opened and although a fairly small space, there's a decent amount of seating throughout the restaurant and a cool open kitchen concept. I decided to try out the new Maui Hook bowl that was on the specials menu and it was fantastic! The shrimp breading was crispy on the outside and the meat tender on the inside, the crispy garlic and shallot stayed crispy throughout the duration of my meal, and the flavors of the pineapple, jalapeño, and coconut milk wasabi aioli went soooo well together! Nonstop flavor explosions with every bite! The reason for 3 stars and not 5, is solely because of the fact that there was a random restaurant owned dog strutting around the restaurant. I know that Portland is a super dog friendly city, but this was just too unsanitary for me to ignore. I didn't notice the dog until I was halfway through my meal and it shifted the experience for me; I would really prefer to not dine inside of a restaurant that has a lose dog walking around the kitchen and dining area. I wonder if the dog is also present during health inspection time... read more
