What people say, in short
Bamboo Sushi is a Portland sushi group with several restaurants; the people who name one mean the SE 28th Avenue location, which is the one on the map. Many praise the Green Machine roll, and a few rate it the best or most extraordinary roll they have had, with a couple liking the side dishes and the crispy rice, though one finds the crispy rice dry and tough. A couple name it for delivery and a couple say it handles a larger group. Opinion has soured for some: a couple say it has declined, a couple say to avoid it, a couple find it pricey and one finds it too busy.
