"Chef Naoko Tamura has been cooking and serving authentic Japanese dishes to Portlanders for more than a decade. She uses only local, seasonal, organic ingredients. Lunch trays of shumai dumplings, Japanese fried chicken, and wild Alaskan salmon are complemented with rice, salad, pickles, and miso soup. In the evenings, the menu is a fixed traditional omakase dinner. The décor here, which was revamped by renowned architect Kengo Kuma in 2017, is nearly as impressive as the food. You’ll find thin, whorled bamboo screens decorating the ceiling and a mini zen garden. Photos courtesy of Jeremy Bittermann. "

My wife and I just finished dinner at Shizuku. What an experience! It was very Japanese, and very Oregon. We loved the uniquely oat-crusted shumai. The fantastic house-made tofu had sesame sauce and chopped Oregon hazelnuts. The umami-rich beef was served with kale. The crab cakes are local Dungeness. All of the dishes were excellent, and we're looking forward to going again to try more of the menu.

Excellent space design & classical menu selection with strong accent on local fare, seafood & meats represented equally well - as it should be in Japanese epicurean practice. Remarkable sake selection, with origin indicated - Hyogo & Akita, my personal favorites, excellent opposites for various courses.

I cannot begin to express how delicious our meal was. Everything was made with finesse and we left the restaurant full and extremely satisfied. The physical restaurant itself is well designed and clean. Price will be high of course, but it was well worth the expensive bill. Highly recommend! (Didn't end up taking photos of all the courses because I got too excited and started eating)

Special five-course meals designed and served by the chef. The food was contemporary Japanese with a northwest twist that implemented seasonal produce. Fresh and fun with experimental flavors.

The reviews led us to this lovely Japanese restaurant for lunch (as their dinner reservations were booked thru the month of February); but also seeing they served organic options! The meals (teriyaki chicken & miso tonkatsu) were beautifully presented, along with the ambiance, music & restaurant design. However if you're in a rush or only have 1 hr; definitely try for dinner instead. The servers were sweet & attentive, but very slow. The 18% gratuity was a surprise considering the slowness in delivery however we will try dinner to compare soon.

Had tonkatsu bento and currv udon for lunch. Those taste was good. They are really Japanese styled but using the well-selected vegetables and meats. The restaurant interior is very stylish and Japanese modern. Their staffs are polite and friendly.

Omakase dinner for $50, totally worth it! And I got a few cooking tips from Naoko!

They have just opened a new space next to the previous location. It is amazing place to eat. Not only the food quality is really the best Japanese food in town but also the interior and atmosphere are so nice and peaceful. She did so nice creation there. Their service will be a key to be successful as one of kind Japanese cuisine in Portland. And I am sure she will. :)
