Janken Portland Reviews from The Last Year
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 couldnāt have been more happy. Price point is a bit high, but considering the quality of the food and service thatās 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 Sheās very informative. She knows exactly what recommendations to make. Sheās 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 weāve been there and like I said weāve been there five or six times this last time the food wasnāt 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 hadnāt 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. Itās 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 thatās whatās 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!
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!!
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 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.
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.
Amazing food and great service - great ambience.
.. I definitely recommend this restaurant!
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 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!
Smoky infused drinks await you
A smoky haze greets you at the door. This is from the popular infused mezcal drinks. The cocktails seem to be their signature feature. The portions are tapas style R dinner plate prices. Food is good, fish fresh and creative. Good for special occasions. As is the trend these days, everyone is trying to be more inventive with drinks and food. Jenken has occupied the former blue hour space, which is in a neighborhood full of restaurant choices.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been āmatchedā 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.

Banned from Resy for selling reservations- Do we have a rat on our hands???
I am new to this app and started off by selling a polo bar reservation and then quickly sold one more reservation. Not long after I received emails from Resy saying all my reservations are cancelled and I am being banned from Resy for life. How could this have possibly happened without a rat telling Resy that I sold the reservation. I need some advice on this situation and letās catch the rat!
