Time Out says

What is it? A truly heavenly sushi restaurant in an unassuming building in Southwest, open since 1988.

Why we love it: From fatty tuna sashimi and a wide range of specialty rolls, to appetizers like umeboshi (salty plum) soup, Murata never disappoints. Every meal begins with a few pickled veggies and edamame on adorable tiny plates, and each course that follows will blow you away. Order for the table to your heart’s content.

Time Out tip: Try to get a reservation in a tatami mat room—a private, wood-paneled room where you’ll sit at a table with a sunken floor on comfy pillows. It’s customary to take shoes off (and makes the experience feel even more cozy and special).

Address: 200 SW Market St, Portland, OR 97201

Hours: Mon–Fri 11:30am–1:30pm, 5–8:30pm; Sat 5–8:30pm

Expect to pay: At least $40 per person for dinner, up to $75.
