This place is special. We had a piece of bluefin that was shear perfection. Also, a deep friend scallop was incredible. Everything was great. The only thing is the tasting menu isn’t a ton of food, I wouldn’t go too hungry. Or if you’re still hungry you can order more after the tasting menu.

May 2026: The tasting menu was so delicately and artfully prepared. All of the nigiri was so fresh and delightful. The non-fish items still have me drooling - a poached eggplant and a fried cod dish. The meal and each detail was so special to enjoy. Thank you Price per person: $100+

I had heard that getting a reservation at KAEDE is nearly impossible, but I got extremely lucky and snagged a counter seat due to a last-minute cancellation. It’s an intimate space run by a talented chef and his wife, who handles both serving and kitchen support. Even though they were busy managing the entire floor by themselves, the service was seamless and attentive. Every dish was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious—I was thoroughly impressed. I would love to visit again during my stay in Portland, though I know how tough it is to get a table. Highly recommended if you can get in! [Update/Addition] We were incredibly lucky to return to KAEDE just a few days after our first visit, this time for table seating. While I personally loved the unique experience of the counter, the table service was equally flawless. The highlight of this visit was the team's incredible hospitality. It seems they review their reservations in advance; since this reservation was under my friend’s name, I suspect they were expecting guests they hadn't met before. They seemed genuinely surprised to see us again, which was a wonderful moment. Despite how busy they are, both the chef and his partner—who handles everything from greeting guests to seamless floor service—were incredibly attentive. They made sure to explain the dishes in both English and Japanese so that both of us felt comfortable and well-informed. Also, I must mention the Maitake mushroom Chawanmushi; although it was an optional addition to the course for $8 this time (it was included in our first visit), it did not disappoint at all. It was truly unique and one of the best I have ever had. It is rare to find such high-quality food paired with such genuine care. KAEDE remains the highlight of our trip, and we are already looking forward to our next visit. Price per person: $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
