Hot Pot 'n Sushi - Portland

I had been craving both ramen and sushi, so I was really looking forward to dining here while shopping at Cascade Station with a friend. I was quite hungry and had high hopes...

I’ve visited this restaurant numerous times in the past, but things have changed a bit in the Covid-19 era. The conveyor belt is no longer in operation, but this simply means...

Fantastic food at reasonable prices! The service could use some improvement, but unfortunately, I noticed several signs on the door looking for staff. They are certainly making an effort, though!

The tuna and California rolls were fresh and tasty the best dishes here imo. However anything that is normally served warm such as noodles, wonton and shumai were cold. <br/ <br/ We went here during happy hour this Sunday which was anything between 6pm and closing. Although it was busy we were seated pretty quickly. <br/ <br/ All plates on the track were only $1.25 but you had to buy one drink per customer. There wasn't much variety on the track and some of the plates were really skimpy. I would have loved to see some Maki and veggie rolls in there!<br/ <br/ I might go back because it is one of the healthier food options in Cascade Station but there are definitely better sushi places in PDX. Giving them an extra 0.5 because the staff was pleasant and quick to respond even though it was busy .

If your looking for cheap and Americanized sushi, this place during happy hour fits the bill- for one it was a 2 minute wait, and I got a soda and 12 plates for $16 including tip. If Ihad tobe out here or happened to be in the area it's fine if you keep your expectations appropriate. I love raw fish and there was literally no sashimi or nigiri to be had during happyhour- it has to be special ordered at regular price. I can't complain about the deal but if I were looking for authentic, then I would probably go elsewhere. Great for what it is: cheap, Americanized sushi as happy hour food.
