Simply the best. I have had sushi up and down the west coast. Syun is the best. Great setting, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Their Sake selection is out of this world and the ...

As authentic as the food may be (including the price being way too high), the service is very Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde - one day is good, another day it's horrible! Syun has slidde...

Great and bad 5/5/2003

This place has outstanding sushi and sashimi, an authentic atmosphere, and nice servers. Try the shirozake if they have any. The only downer is that the sushi chef is downright nasty. They should have this guy go back in the kitchen where he can dump on the dishwashers instead of the customers. Pros: Great food, good service, nice interior Cons: jerky sushi chef more

Great Sushi in Hillsboro? 12/12/2002

It's hard to believe that a place can have such great fresh sushi in Hillsboro, but its true. The staff is very friendly and the food is delicious. It's a regular for me, but make reservations on the weekend, it can get packed. Pros: fresh, friendly service Cons: small more

Almost as good as sex 12/6/2002

Syun's food is awesome. You get a huge variety to chose from. Their grilled mackeral is the best. Their sushi is really good, too. The ambience is comfortable and interesting. You can buy a bottle of sake, and if you don't finish, they keep it for you up to 100 days. It even goes on display. I love this place! Pros: nice area, interesting decor, great food Cons: food not described more

Good sense and good food 12/2/2002

Our family friend invited us to this restaurant. We loved this restaurant! The interior is very modern and the foods are very good and fresh. We paid $65 for Daikon salad, Chef's special Sushi, California rolls, Yakitori, Tempura, Gyoza (pot stickers) and soft drinks! Very inexpensive!! However, the service is quite slow becuase one person is taking care of 5 full tables. Don't forget to make a reservation. Otherwise, you will wait for 20-30 min. Pros: Inexpensive, Crowded, Fresh foods Cons: Slow service more

Best Japanese on the West Coast 11/27/2002

If you think that Todai, I Love Sushi, or Sushi Land have better sushi than Syun, than they haven't eaten good sushi. I haven't tried Mio or Saburo, but I plan on it now. But sushi isn't the only thing they have. I've been to Japan before and this is the closest I have found to actual Japanese food. They have a variety of dishes that you share family style. If your daring, go for the Gyu Tataki, my favorite dish on the menu. The atmosphere is exactly like your eating at a small Izakaya in Japan. Even the Japanese I talk to can't believe how authentic this restaurant is. Pros: Quaint, Service, Authentic Cons: Little Expensive, Limited Parking more

da best Japanese food 10/25/2002

Moved here from Hawaii, where there are many great Japanese restaurants. Could not find any decent Japanese food here until we tried Syun. Tempura is just like home. Soft shell crab is good. Great sashimi. Make reservations--very crowded! Pros: sake, tempura, soft shell crab Cons: crowded, street parking more

Worth the trip 8/3/2002

Been three times. It is a long drive (from anywhere it seems) to get there. However we have never been dissapointed. Great sushi at decent prices. Ohhh, and the Sake!! Authentic and interesting. Somewhat slow service, but have some sake and enjoy the amazing food. Pros: Great sushi!, Good prices, Authentic Cons: Crowded, hard to get to more

Service sucks 7/20/2002

As authentic as the food may be (including the price being way too high), the service is very Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde - one day is good, another day it's horrible! Syun has slidden in quality - enough for us to not go there again. Again, the service SUCKS for the price you pay. Pros: menu Cons: service, service, service more

Good food at a premium price! 6/18/2002

The food is delicious, the sushi is fresh, but the prices are outrageous! The service is typically polite for a Japanese restaurant, and the food is beautifully prepared and presented. This is a delightful place to take visitors... the atmosphere is wonderful... very much like a Sake club in Tokyo.... but plan to spend a LOT of money for it! A party of four can easily lay down $100 or more, especially if you order a bottle of sake to accompany your dinner. Pros: Great Food, Great Atmosphere Cons: Pricey more

way too expensive! 6/11/2002

Fellow customers beware! This restaurant is too expensive. The food is not bad at all. However, you can certainly get equally good food -if not better- elsewhere for a lot less. The prices are outrageous. Especially watch out for those no-price menu items and the drinks unless you want to pay $20 for 4 (yes, only four!!!) extremely small pieces of fish!!! Pros: sake selection Cons: outrageous prices, Location more
