Janken Portland Reviews from The Last Year
Really nice ambiance and good food overall but a little
Really nice ambiance and good food overall but a little over priced for what it's worth. I think if you are looking for classic sushi then are better sushi options in town at a better price point. But if you are looking for a fancy date vibe, that is definitely here. The hamachi crispy rice was delicious and the pork sticky ribs were good too.
I had a reservation during happy hour, my friends were
I had a reservation during happy hour, my friends were running late so I grabbed a seat at the bar and ordered a drink. I believe it had whiskey in it so I was unsure if I'd like it but I did! I think I'll stick to coming for happy hour, the food was good but nothing that blew me away! I wish the tree in the middle of the whole place was real
This place is overpriced and the service is terrible.
The food is decent, but don't expect to leave full or happy. Probably the worst lobster I have ever had, so definitely stay away from that. We asked to have our water refilled 3 times, and they couldn't figure out the bill correctly at the end of the dinner. By the way, you are required to have a 20% tip added no matter the service you received. I love high end restaurants, and will tip way over 20% if the service is great. I never write reviews, but do yourself a favor, and go somewhere else. This restaurant falls way short, with their poor service and overpriced food.
Too much Frosting and not enough Cake ! I deliberated
Too much Frosting and not enough Cake ! I deliberated giving them another star but in my books a 4 star is a restaurant that I will return to however I don't feel any inclination to come back to Janken unless its with friends who want to visit . Despite having reservations and arriving on time , we were told to first sit at the bar and order and were eventually seated. The vibe is upscale but I wasn't the biggest fan of the seats - Not very comfortable . The staff who was attending us was sweet and did their best to explain the menu and dishes. The staff at the bar seemed aloof and cold on the other hand . The fish was fresh and the Chefs choice Nigiri was indeed stellar. Rest of the items that we ordered were just average and didn't leave an impression. The drinks were alright as well. The Wasabi that they made fresh on the spot was unique but definitely not enough to share even with the added cost. The number one con is the Pricing and pretentiousness of this place . I am all for a spendy dinner and happily shell out if the experience is worth it -but Janken didn't provide me with one .The whole experience was underwhelming at best from start to finish .The food was good but it wont blow your mind , the atmosphere is good and yes the pretty tree makes for good pictures but that's about it . When you expect people to pay a premium price for mediocre food and add a mandatory 20% gratuity ,please make the experience worth their while. I know since Portland is a foodie`s paradise there are many more places that I will prefer over them for a special occasion but if you are into 'vibes and Instagram worthy spots ' this can be the place for you .
Really delicious food and a really varied menu.
Service is prompt and efficient, although serving staff does have a minor but noticeable "cooler than thou" vibe. Superb ingredients and very high quality sushi if you're looking for straight up fish. Decor is very spiffy. A few nits: 1 If you're going to advertise your prowess as a cocktail bar, you really should have more 0 proof options than two kinds of spring water, Red Bull, and diet Red Bull . 2 The drink with the burned pineapple is very very cool, and the releasing smoke from under a cloche is cool (if about 15 years past being cutting edge), but when everyone in the place is ordering it, it means those of us trying to enjoy the tastes and smells of other things are overwhelmed with fruity smoke smell every three minutes, really interrupting the gustatory senses. 3 No more QR code menus, please please please--it just makes everyone stare at their phones even more, and makes selecting and remembering (especially when everything is served shared-style) needlessly difficult, and it makes talking about food with your fellow diners or the waiter awkward. Paper menus
If you're looking to spend it, this is the place!! So
If you're looking to spend it, this is the place!! So classy, upscale, and luxurious experience at Jankens. Perfect for date night or girls night!!! The food was amazing and drinks were to die for!! They have the best service as well. Everything was amazing!
For the most part, food and service were excellent.
Unfortunately we were served scallops that were spoiled and had a very strong flavor of ammonia. They allowed us to swap this dish out for another, but I would've expected them to either comp the bill or at the very least, discount it significantly. We also ordered a dessert to take home which included ice cream, but when asked if we could put the ice cream in a separate container, were told they didn't have any such containers and that the chef "didn't like to do that."
Great cocktails and I highly recommend trying the pineapple
Great cocktails and I highly recommend trying the pineapple express or the blueberry drink. Now they're not known for their drinks as much as they are their small plates that are mostly grate for sharing with big groups because if you're doing it with just a couple people it's gonna be a little pricey, but with big groups you can buy more and it evens out well. Now I really recommend trying the Dragon Maki. Well made and very delicious as all the dishes are. The service is very informative on the menu items which they recommend and seasonal specials and go into detail.
Came here for an anniversary dinner and it was such a
Came here for an anniversary dinner and it was such a lovely time! We were pretty impressed by most dishes, I think especially the crudo and the crispy rice bites! My boyfriend especially loved the wagyu rice bowl. The drinks were also so good! Cant remember what drink it was but the one that comes with purple foam is super cool cuz it makes the drink green when you mix it haha. The inside is also decorated so cutely, esp love the tree in the middle. And the staff is nice enough to hold onto your jackets for you. Our server was also phenomenal and REALLY knew the menu inside and out.
Nice wait staff but horrible prices and mediocre food
Nice wait staff but horrible prices and mediocre food (after a ONE HOUR wait--not even busy or packed) We got 4 regular sized sushi rolls and some oysters and a piece of cake and hit a total of $250 with 20% added on at the end for the "wait staff" regardless if anything was up to our expectations. So almost $300. Had we actually ordered the amount that we usually get at Meeka or Sbarro (both of which taste 10 times better) we would have been looking at $500+ for a basic Japanese dinner. Yes the ambience is nice but cmon an hour wait for basic rolls grocery store sushi workers prepare in 5 minutes?
WORST. DINING EXPERIENCE. EVER. and I mean EVER.
They should change the name to JUNK. I normally do not go out of my way to write a review, but this experience was so over the top repulsive that it could not be ignored. I had met met friend who I hadn't seen in years for a nice meal, to catch up and enjoy the evening. About 20 minutes before the "time limit" had approached, the little girl waitress informed us that our "time was almost up" and they needed our table for the next party. We were only about half way done with our meal and had just ordered another round of ridiculously expensive drinks. When we informed her we would not be finished with our meal within the "time limit", she informed us she could "box it up" for us. An over $300 meal boxed to go. UNBELIEVABLE. We informed her we would be finishing our meal yet she continued to come to our table and interrupt our meal about every 5 minutes after that to inform us that we were reaching our "time limit" and that we would need to leave. At one point this condescending little girl had the audacity to say "I'm not sure you're aware, but this is how dining works." Finally she came by offering to box up our food WHILE WE WERE STILL EATING and at that point we were so utterly disgusted by the whole experience we decided to leave. While we were waiting for the boxes the owner of the restaurant came over and essentially did the same thing that the little girl waitress did. Not even an apology, just more iterating of the "time limit". He asked if we wanted to move to the bar and we said no. We suggested they put the next party at the bar. While I understand that some restaurants can't control their own flow and have to put a time limit on your meal, it seems to me when you are charging ridiculous prices like this, that you have some means of accommodating people when they go over the "time limit" for their meal. And NOT at the bar. Perhaps a couple of seats left available unseated. I dont know, SOMETHING. This is totally unacceptable how this was handled. I have been dining all over this country, and the world, for over 40 years and never in my life have I been treated in this manner. It was disgusting and repulsive and I would not recommend this place to a street dog. To add further insult to injury, you are not given an option to tip what you think its worth, they have the audacity to assume on the front end that it is worth an additional 20% "service charge" even before you are provided the "service". If I had had cash on me I would NOT have paid this absurd service charge. This horrible waitress would have received nothing from us. This is unfortunate, because the food was actually quite good. But I will never go back and I will dissuade anyone I know from eating here.
Not like it usually is.
When Janken first opened up my husband and I were so excited to try it. I originally went with friend. It was fantastic then we returned again for my daughters birthday with her friends and the service was phenomenal. The food was fantastic. Everything was perfection. I couldn’t have been more happy. Price point is a bit high, but considering the quality of the food and service that’s not a problem. We have been there three or four times since and last Thursday we went lfor my birthday. Got to tell you I was pretty disappointed. The service is always fantastic Ann is amazing She’s very informative. She knows exactly what recommendations to make. She’s professional well spoken and represents what I feel. The Restaurant would like their staff to represent. Unfortunately, I feel this last time there will probably be our last time. We have some items that we always order when we’ve been there and like I said we’ve been there five or six times this last time the food wasn’t the same. The sticky rice was cold and tasted almost stale like it have been left out. They changed their recipe for their steak tartar so the flavor is not the same either the beverage service was very slow although the beverages were very good we tried a few new items we hadn’t tried before the lobster rolls which were very tasty. We tried some ribs, and we also tried the Wagyu potstickers, I would say on a scale of one to 10 my last experience at this establishment would be a six and prior to this last visit. I would say that the restaurant was constantly a ten. It’s unfortunate that once the restaurant became popular in the Portland metro area, it often affects the food service and quality of food service due to popularity. I feel like that’s what’s happened with Janken. Pretty sad really.
This was our second time coming here! We made a resv, but
This was our second time coming here! We made a resv, but this time made one during regular dinner hours and not happy hour. The ambiance here is amazing, the cherry blossom in the middle is so pretty! However, be warned, the music is very loud in there. Our service was much better this time than last, we felt that our waiter came around more often and didn't forget about our table. We started off with the sojuko cocktail, this was delicious! It was white grape flavored, but if you don't like sweet drinks don't order it. The only downside to not coming during happy hour, besides the higher pricing, is that there are happy hour items they don't have on the regular menu. I don't eat raw fish, but my brother said the Kanpachi Crudo crudo was very tasty and refreshing. The KFC was good, but nothing special. If you want a cheaper protein get this. The Mushroom Bao Buns were good, but the soft shell crab ones from happy hour are better. I would skip the Dragon Maki Roll, they put lettuce in it and I thought that was weird. I would definitely get the crispy prawns again though! The Pork Belly, Pork Sticky Ribs, and Grilled Ribeye were all delicious and I'd order any of those again! The Dynamite Roll was ok, but really expensive for 7 pieces. The vegetable fried is also delicious and I'd order that again too. For dessert, I highly recommend the sorbet and the panna cotta!! The panna cotta came with a passion fruit sauce that was amazing. This is definitely a special occasion restaurant, but worth it!
Very yummy Japanese Korean fusion restaurant! Highly
Very yummy Japanese Korean fusion restaurant! Highly recommend the brussel sprouts, oysters, pork belly chop salad, but honestly you cannot go wrong. Amazing service and beautiful cozy vibes in the restaurant. Get dessert!!
This place was impressive and authentic.
Everything that we ordered was delicious with amazing flavor and tasted fresh. Many places don't impress me, but this place definitely deserves 5 star. We will definitely be coming back to try other things on the menu. Totally recommend coming here!!
Amazing food and great service - great ambience.
.. I definitely recommend this restaurant!
We were having a blast celebrating our friend's birthday
We were having a blast celebrating our friend's birthday and absolutely loved the delicious food and cozy atmosphere. This spot really gives off a vibe of elegance and style for a fun night out in PDX. Plus, the diverse menu options were a hit with everyone in our group.
This is a fun date spot.
Nice decor, tasty cocktails, some with fun presentations, and food perfect for splitting. We liked almost every dish, and loved the ribs and bao. The mushroom tempura was a tiny portion of mushroom and almost entirely tempura which was a bit strange. The sushi ice cream was cute but lacking the strong flavors of the rest of the menu. Service was friendly but odd the night we went- unclear if it was short staffing or what the cause was. Dishes and drinks were spaced out unevenly with some coming very quickly and then very long gaps other times. One dish was forgotten and eventually came after a reminder. Seating is tight in most of the restaurant- we were very close to the table next to us and felt in their conversation on multiple occasions due to a loud talker at their table. Our table was next to a pole and should be removed- I scooted as close to the table as possible after being bumped once and continued to be bumped and tripped over by staff trying to get between the table/chair and the pole. We saw some other people having issues with their tables being too close to things as well. We will return to try more of their menu and hope for more consistent service and a better table.
This spot was an accident.
We were driving home from a meeting we had over near the Pearl and we decided to stop for sushi. I quickly pulled up my yelp app and searched for Sushi and this was the nearest one NW Everett which we were driving on. We pulled over, I checked out the photos and menu and said let's do it. Walking in, you notice the huge white cherry tree in the middle and big beautiful ambient lights. The room is dim and cozy and there is music playing in the background and tables of beautiful, happy, young people. What looked like some couples on dates, friends at a dinner party, casual after work business meetings, University friends getting together for drinks and tapas. It was definitely a vibe. Food: Japanese Korean fusion tapas style meant to be ordered and shared amongst friends, family, collegues. Whomever you decide to chill with here. The food was delicious and flavorful and I personally wish I would've order more of the side veggies options. The brussel sprouts are a MUST. I also had a dragon roll with shrimp tempura and eel. Hubs had a yummy tuna roll and Lil Miss had the fried rice with tofu. All had flavors that are not your average Sushi taste. I loved the "fusion" of it. Service: Was lovely, every time they brought and item they described it to you and the waitress that kept bring me water was on it. Ambience: was spot on. This place looked and felt like a really chill but fun and happening place. Everyone was dressed really nice but in a casual chill way. It was busy and chatty but not overcrowded. Surprising for a Thursday!! If you are looking for a fun spot to meet up with friends for tapas and drinks...you must try this place.
Pre-concert dinner on point
We chose Janken for its gastronomic proposal and we were delighted by the food, decoration and service. I suggest the lobster roll, compliments of the spicy tuna and rainbow roll, very well prepared. Accompanied by a sparkling sake or some of the very well-made cocktails. Don't skip the chocolat bar dessert, very delicious. Note: 20% of the service is included in the bill.
This restaurant is just not very good.
Its got a starbucks of fine-dining vibe, almost as if their intent is to cater to bridge and tunnel clientele. Its generically upscale. There is no real creativity or passion to the food.
Good service.
Very busy after 6pm I would recommande booking a table. Instagramable venue and food presentation. On the expensive side. We ordered sushi and it tasted very fresh. Good drinks options. Nice ambiance.
This Japanese restaurant serves outstanding food with
This Japanese restaurant serves outstanding food with excellent service. The ambiance is serene, elegant and beautiful. But the noise level made conversation among the four of us difficult. Please turn down the music!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
