I came here awhile back and it was not a good experience..... decided to give it another shot for my anniversary and it took a whole 180°. Thank you, chef Andrew for the impeccable sushi, I wouldn't want anyone else making my rolls. He was super accommodating to my requests and made my rolls to perfection. I was impressed he was very young, also.The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about sushi in America is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for this location in particular and have diregaurded the motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what it means. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist *can* come from *anywhere*.Thank you for the wonderful experience and making my anniversary a very memorable one. I will be coming back, hungry for more.
Popular Bamboo Sushi spot in a busy area. Try to get a reservation, it was packed at 4pm. I always get the green machine roll.
I appreciated the way they treated their staff, they were spacing out walk ins when I arrived as they were short staffed. While the food was delicious, it came out at odd times. Maybe because of the staffing issue or newer staff members. One of our entree rolls came out almost immediately after ordering, but we hadn't yet received all our appetizers. About 5 minutes later the appetizer came, but it was another 10 minutes or so before the other entree rolls were served. Which made for an awkward sitting and waiting for everyone else's food.I loved the variety of vegan and vegetarian rolls, as I don't eat fish, and loved the "Green Machine" roll I had. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant on a weekday and not a weekend so hopefully you get more consistent service throughout your meal. The food was delicious and my party still enjoyed the meal despite the time inconsistencies and would go back again.
Wow, what a really amazing spot. All of our food and drinks were phenomenal. Highly recommend you try the blanched seaweed appetizer, it is unique and so tasty. My favorite roll of the three we ordered was the green machine roll add salmon. This was one of the best sushi rolls I have ever had, however everything we got was great! Our server was great and the ambience was very comfortable.
Don't often do sushi but really enjoyed our experience at Bamboo Sushi in Lake Oswego. The prices seemed reasonable, around $8 to $25 per plate. Most plates had around 8 to 10 pieces. The atmosphere was phenomenal especially sitting outside. The staff were friendly and very accommodating as we asked to move from inside to outside. The time to get the food was reasonable, probably about 10 to 15 minutes depending on which plate of sushi. I don't know much about grading the quality of sushi, but we really enjoyed what we had. Would definitely return to this establishment and recommend to anyone wanting to enjoy a great environment, friendly people, reasonable prices, and great food.
One of the better sushi places I have ever been to. I also appreciate their focus on sustainability. Highly recommend bother the chef tasting of nigiri and getting fresh, real wasabi as an option.
We love this place. Never disappoints. Wait times can be bad so better to reserve a table. Green machine is by far the best thing on the menu. Other sushis are nice as well. Tempura cauliflower used to be good but has become much sweeter off late. Hope the sweetness reduces.
Wow! So impressed. Stopped by for the first time after work for HH & I was sooo satisfied the fish was fresh and everything I ordered was delicious. I’ve been looking for the right sushi place in PDX for awhile and I guess I’ll just have to drive a little out of town for my sushi fix now! Cassin was very attentive and made my quick meal great! I will be back ?
Underwhelmed with both the service and food. Tried the Shiso Plum Shiriomi - lacking in taste. Tuna Tataki good......but not worth the price. Family left hungry and underwhelmed by the sushi and service. We felt like we were being hustled out so the next table could be seated.
We had a fabulous experience for dinner! Omar was our waiter and he was so knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The food is so fresh, flavorful and delicious. Excellent staff, generous outdoor seating, heat lamps and a lovely atmosphere.
