    Loved the noise level most of the night, but there were a couple of songs that had a very entrusive bass beat. It actually reacted with my hearing aids in a bad way, so much that I had to put my hands over my ears until the song moved on.

    Great service. The drinks are good, the sushi is fresh but not spectacular. The cod is one of the best dishes I’ve ever tried. The Waygu plate is worth it. My date loved the Crème brûlée and the Tiramisu. I look forward to trying some of the other dishes on my next visit.

    The food was good but not better than some of the best sushi spots in town but was far more expensive. The service was ok. They wanted us to order everything all at once and we ended up getting a bit of a random presentation with one of our appetizers being served last. The drinks were very good but again, for the price, not phenomenally better then other top spots in Portland.

    I recently had the opportunity to dine at Jankin Restaurant, and I’d like to share my thoughts. the atmosphere was lively and welcoming, with unique décor that set the stage for an enjoyable evening. The service was friendly and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was comfortable. I was especially pleased to see that the menu includes vegan options, which is a great nod to inclusivity and offers something for everyone.
