Fish-San

Quick Summary- Ordered via the kiosk- Tables and chairs inside - Received a cute packet that contains chopsticks, a wet napkin, etc.- Recommend the original tuna (raw)- Located along the grassy parkwayA light disclaimer is that I had this during the summer of 2024. We visited here in a summer evening, and it was also the hottest day of the time I visited Portland. My appetite was drained from the summer heat, so we wanted to eat something is refreshing and will cool us down. Out of the options, poke fit with our requirements; additionally, it was close within walking distance from the place we resided, so we didn't need to walk in the baking streets.There was a kiosk machine near the entrance, so we ordered our food from it. We all chose tuna as the main protein, but mine I kept as raw and my relatives chose the charred option. The dishes arrived at the same time and they also came with this cute beefy chopsticks packet. Unlike the typical chopsticks bag, this one contained a lot of goodies, including the wet napkin. This was nice.I enjoyed the poke from this restaurant because one, I can make it as simple as I want. This seems like a weird praise, but when you are in the Bay Area, their poke theme is stuffed with vegetables and other toppings, which I don't need. This eventually pushes the fish protein to the back, overall hiding the fish's flavor. Here, the poke was simple, where the main focus is the bright, red tuna and the toppings are lighter, sesame, seaweed, and pickled vegetables.For my record, the tuna tasted better as raw; my relatives mentioned that the charred made the tuna sweeter.I also felt the portions were just right for the moment, when the summer heat prevents me from eating more.

Came here because their ratings were so high. Truthfully I'd give them five stars too except for a college town restaurant, their prices are kind of high. Food is good and fresh, portions are decent, however, menu is limited and pricey for lunch. Two meals and drinks were $45 plus tip. Poke and Don bowls looked pretty much the same to us. You do get free miso soup thoughUpdate: as we were about to leave I downgraded this to three stars after watching a staff member wearing their food prep gloves to do other things including grabbing something from the back storage and then sweeping. I really hope they didn't make food with those now soiled food prep gloves on! Disappointing to see this!

Ordered:-Sweet shoyu salmon bowl -Tuna aburi donPro:-We really enjoyed the salmon sweet shoyu bowl! It was fresh, not overly seasoned, had quality nori, and the rice was done right (many places seem to make it mushy)-Staff was welcoming and very attentive-Clean and welcoming inside-Utensils come with wet wipes & dental floss! So thoughtful!! So Japanese!!Con: -We weren't a fan of the aburi don because the tuna became firm and dry after being seared-Limited parking on street

Fantastic spot near PSU for takeout Poke! It's a small clean joint, friendly staff. Their menu was outdated so I've added a new one as of 10/22/24 . The portion sizes are huge! The krab meat is an awesome addon and the time and salmon are really fresh. We ended up eating way more than we should've because of how fresh, clean, and tasty this was. Even with the sauces on top, it doesn't feel heavy or rich. Good old Poke that reminds me of Hawaii!

Finally got to try and was satisfied. The Tuna-Salmon Don was fresh and filling, and the miso soup a decent version. Price points are high for lunch, but not for seafood.Areas of Improvement: - no hot sauce, even Sriracha or Togarashi would be better than nothing. - too many gnats buzzing around, it doesn't need to be this way.- interior seating area was kinda cold.Staff was pleasant.

This is the perfect stop for a quick and delicious lunch! Everything was so fresh and well seasoned.The staff are so friendly and attentive - they gave me such great recommendations. The store is also decorated so cutesy and has a very bright & welcoming feels.

This place is amazing! Located right on PSU campus, I'm jealous it wasn't here when I was in school. The place is welcoming and super cute with its artsy wall and attention to detail even with their to-go bags and chopsticks. I got to try a few different things here - the Bara chirashi, unagi-Don, and Tom Yum poke. The fish was so fresh and plentiful, and everything was incorporated so well. My favorite was the Tom-Yum - you can't find something like this anywhere else. The flavor was so on point. There's really nothing I would change about anything, it was all 5/5 stars. I also highly recommend getting their matcha latte. It was so delicious, my friend even said it was better than the ones he had in Japan! It's a great refresher with the meal.

So glad I was able to try out this place. This place definitely lives up to its reviews.The packaging is so efficient and so cute. You get a cute carry out bag that is reusable, and it fits so much. I also loved that the utensil packaging came with a floss pick to make sure you don't have seaweed stuck in your teeth!Onto the food...I ordered the unagi don because I love unagi, and this bowl did not disappoint. I ended up adding some sliced cucumbers that I had in my fridge. The unagi is a generous portion and is quite flavorful. Because we did do carry out, the rice did get a little clumpy in texture. I would still get it again thoughMy husband got the salmon don with extra fish (2oz). I think the extra 2oz is a necessary amount of fish, which can make the bowl a little spend but the fish quality was good.Overall I would come back again and try some of the other dons and poke bowls, but the unagi don may still be my go to... Definitely check this place out if you're in th

I went to Fish san a handful of times on the PSU campus, and it was an exceptional dining experience!The salmon don was outstanding. The salmon was incredibly fresh and flavorful, sitting atop perfectly cooked rice. Plus, the miso soup included with the entree was a comforting and delicious addition.There was a self ordering station but the service was also great. Most of their menu items feel costly but are worth it. I loved the clean and minimalistic interior of the restaurant. It created a peaceful and modern atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a meal. The vibes were great, making it a relaxing spot to dine.The packaging was the cutest and most efficient I've ever seen. Not only was it aesthetically pleasing, but it also kept the food fresh and intact, making it perfect for takeout.

Oh my goodness! This is one of the best sushi places in the area! After a long day I was craving some sushi so I did a deep search of the area for good sushi places and stumbled upon this one. What a great choice I made! The quality of the fish is amazing for the price! Also the to go materials were so cute haha. You get a pretty good quality tote bag and your sushi is put in a cute box. The matcha latte was pretty good as well, I would recommend it. For the sushi I would recommend all of it lol. I enjoyed everything I ordered especially the C9 and hamachizilla! My sister really enjoyed the Firework roll. Definitely should give those a try! The girl who helped me in the front was so amazing too- She was the sweetest! Shoutout to her!!
