"With a commitment to sustainable fishing — a particular challenge on the southern Oregon Coast, where sourcing can be difficult — Pacific Sushi owner Mike Horgan has managed to stay the course beautifully. Colorfully plated sushi — both traditional rolls and locally inspired combos featuring spicy salmon, real crab, and spicy tempura sweet potato — hit tables in a rustic, wood-paneled space. Look for sustainably sourced uni and sablefish as an unagi substitute. Outside the world of sushi, the house tonkotsu ramen is particularly special, as is the adjacent cocktail lounge with Japanese-inspired libations. Open for dine-in, takeout, and delivery through a local service." - Jennifer Burns Bright
