Sushi as in rice topped with fish is not what this place is about. Imaginative rolls of tasty seafood along with great tasting appetizers like miso mushrooms and eggplant are the base of this menu. Nigiri is an afterthought after looking at the menu. Besides,can afford to skip a Wagyu 1/2 pound burger (sushi restaurant?). Ok, the nigiri is pretty good too but the rolls are what you will crave for a return visit.
Expect to wait for a seat at dinner time but it is worth the time.

The best true Japanese food I've eaten since visiting Japan. They even had fried chicken, which I loved in Japan.

We went for dinner, and it was very dark, but the sushi was very natural tasting, and delicious. However, the Yakisoba was a little bit too salty. They also have mostly friendly waitresses, and the decoration of the restaurant was very japanese. Recommended....

Heard about Bamboo on Tripadvisor and was planning a trip to Portland. We made reservations at Bamboo and we not disappointed. My husband who swears that he hates Sushi actually ate and loved every minute of the meal. The waiter was one the best. Made suggestions along our way. This is a definite must for anyone who lives in or is visiting Portland

It's only a few places in the United States where you can eat Sushi and have it 100% sustainable. Bamboo Sushi is one of those places.
I had the salmon sampler, the Alaska Coho salmon is tops in my book. A little loud on a Saturday night but the food is great.
