This place has got to be the best Japanese Restaurant I've ever been to! Syun Izakaya is casual and inconspicuous from the outside. Their menu is all inclusive and aims to please with noodles, hot plates, sushi, rolls, etc. (It's approximately seven pages long and doesn't include their extensive selection of sake, that's a separate menu). The food is AMAAAAZING and authentic - not to mention super affordable. Just make sure someone in your party orders the Gyuniku Ninniku (beef with garlic buds) - freakin YUMMM! Syun Izakaya also has about 20-30 different sakes on stock. If you order a bottle the restaurant will offer to store it for up to 100 days! With food this good, I'd expect people to eat here a few times a month. I miss it already. My only regret is that I didn't take pictures for the rest of the world to see.

Random fact of the day:
In California, it isn't uncommon for a customer to share alcohol beverages with their bartender/server. In Oregon however, servers are prohibited from partaking in such activities. BOOOO!! Sorry Daniel.

It is also illegal to pump your own gas in OR.
