      <![CDATA[My absolute favorite sushi joint in Portland.  When friends and family come to visit and want a slice of Portland, this is where I take them.  The music inside can range from funk to punk to soul to 80's synth pop, and the train is a classic touch.<br>
<br>
The chefs and staff are always nice and helpful (although it helps that I'm friends with most of them LOL).

      <![CDATA[The ex-Takahashi may not quite be Ichiban (best) in Portland but it's up there with places more expensive and has a great family n' friends atmosphere. (Hint:s They have baby seats for the sushi counter! And show up right at 11:30 or after 1:30 to ensure booth seating during weekdays.)<br>
<br>
Great fish, decent service and the best sushi value in Portland.

      <![CDATA[My favorite restaurant in town!  For those thinking the selection is lacking, keep in mind there are over a dozen items not even on the menu, and not everything on the menu is automatically on the train.  So next time ask a regular or request the list of special rolls and you'll be surprised how great those are.  Half the things I usually order are never on the train...

      <![CDATA[Love this place. Great for those weeks when cash is running low and you&#39;re craving sushi something fierce. Nothing fancy here, service can be a little slow for custom orders and the selection is best during the dinner rush but definitely check it out, and leave your pretentious friends at home.

      <![CDATA[I love Sushi Takahashi, a.k.a. &quot;The Sushi Train.&quot; I went there constantly for years, then unfortunately moved to a dumb city that only has ritzy-ass sushi for Los Angeles douchebags. 

The Sushi Train is awesome. It&#39;s cheap and divey, you can get a giant beer, AND they have the best selection of weird vegetarian items I have ever seen at a sushi restaurant. The cool punk-rock waitresses are amazing at recommending weird stuff that&#39;s not on the menu (avocado/agadashi tofu rolls, MY GOD, I miss you every day...). 

I have always heard that for actual fish they are not that great, but I don&#39;t eat fish, so all I know is that I go here, drop a small amount of money, and leave stuffed with a huge variety of quality sushi. Plus, vegan miso!!

I would say this is on my top 2 list of things I miss about Portland, #1 being Stumptown coffee.

      <![CDATA[This place has very decent sushi for very decent prices. The train is fun, the servers are cute and friendly, and there are some interesting/good things on the menu. Definitely try the salmon skin and the other roll- can&#39;t remember what it&#39;s called- but it&#39;s cooked fish with a spicy sauce on top. Those are my absolute favorites.

      <![CDATA[Last nights outing to this spot was hands down the worst experience eating out that I have had in a while. I have been to Takahashi a few times over the last 4 years and sometimes its a hit. Sometimes. And others, its not. Last night was a fuckin&#39; air ball.
There was too much that went on to tell you all but let me say this..when I finally got some food, Hamachi roll, I bit into it and i may have well been biting into your [Achilles] Tendon. Don&#39;t even get me started.  Thank god for the server who seemed just as irritated and frustrated as us...she took some things off the bill, thank you.

      <![CDATA[O.k. portions for the price, but could use a bit more of a selection. Good sushi if you&#39;re in a hurry or a great pit stop if you&#39;re afternoon bar hopping
