Thank you for the reviews on Mio Sushi, Ototo & Tuna House. So far I've found only good reviews on Tuna House, abeit only a small handful of reviews. Maybe we'll try out Tuna House for lunch on Friday, since they are less than 4 miles from the hotel. I was going to try the Mio Sushi on Johnson St in Portland. It looks like they have at least a few creative rolls. I'm gradually becoming less interested in Ototo.

WOW! Thank you for the great replies. Mashiko's menu looks right on. We'll definitely get the Copper River Salmon. Shiki is also on the top of my list. I Love Sushi is on my list because they have one in Bellevue, where we'll be spending 1/2 of our time in the Seattle area. Also on my Bellevue list are Tuna House and Taste of Tokyo. I know very little about either of them. Chiso and Nishino are on my list. I'd like to know more about Nishino's menu. I'm wondering about whether we should try Ototo. I'm not sure about it. In Portland I'm interested in Mio Sushi and Sin Ju. All together we should be able to try out 3-4 sushi joints this coming weekend.

Hello, My fiance & I are visiting Portland, Seattle and possibly any cities in between this coming weekend - 05/20-05/24. Could you recommend any sushi restaurants? We're looking for particular attributes: 1. Not a cafeteria setting or run down - Osaka in Olympia looks nice online - www.osakajapanese.com 2. Traditional & innovative/creative 3. Good Sunomono & possibly green leaf salads 4. Good salmon sashimi & edamame 5. California roll with real crab & light on the mayo 6. Good rainbow with multiple variations on it. Something with one or all of the following ingredients would be great - Shitake mushrooms, scallops, tuna, asparagus, shrimp (grilled or tempera), real crab and advocado. We're not too big on eel, octopus & clam. It depends how they are used. 7. Grilled chicken or similiar hot dishes 8. Light tempera, not heavy & dripping with oil 9. Rolls in the $5.00 - $12.00 range, more or less. $60-$120 for dinner for the two of us. Thank you to anyone who replies to this message. We'll be visiting the area again in August. My fiance just made a big plate of sushi, so I'd better go get started on it.
