Hard to find, comfort, Asian food. - Edit
I was so excited when this cozy and comfortable Pan-Asian restaurant opened. I love coming here for Asian comfort foods that I've missed so much. There's big bowls of rice, noodles and soup along with dim sum style appetizers and gourmet teas. It's run by two amazing guys that really put their heart into the food and atmosphere.
Read moreTip: go for afternoon tea, before the evening rush, they open at 3pm. Ask the chef to make you an appetizer sampler.
Pros: Comfortable

Yes, this place is that good - Edit
Wonderful, authentic Japanese style dinning. Cute little place not much space but the music, food and service certainly make up for how tiny it is in there. Just amazing food and tea! Can’t wait to go back

Future Staple - Edit
This is far and away one of the best new vegan restaurants in Portland. Most places that offer veggie ramen are happy to serve some noodles in mushroom water, but the people behind Ichiza have multiple ramen options that are all savory, filling, and rich. We ordered way too much food (the portions are huge) for two adults and a 7 and 3 year old; mung bean cakes and bacon/shrimp noodle rolls were fantastic. The Tonkotsu ramen with mock pork belly was phenomenal (if you've ever had Van Hanh's House Special BBQ Pork, it's kinda like that in texture). Lan Zhou ramen was complex but still satisfying, and the Adobo rice bowl was ridiculously flavorful.
Read moreThe space is small and they were very busy when we went, but we received some of the friendliest service we've ever had in Portland. Both servers were helpful, not stressed or rushed despite how busy it was, and very nice to our kids. Our 3 year old kept eating her Tonkotsu ramen even after they boxed it up for us, and kept talking about it the rest of the night.
Can't recommend this place more, really excited to go back.
Pros: flavor, service, value
Cons: small space

Authentic Vegan Japanese Food - Edit
I lived in Japan for years and go back regularly and I am in love with Ichiza. Their onigiri (rice balls) were so good and their tea choices were spot on for the meal. The noodle bowls were huge and the tofu was done just perfect. The service is great. Not a huge seating area so get here early!
Read moreMy meal:
Big Red tea - iced
Picked plum onigiri
Fox udon with fox noodles
Pros: Delicious, authentic food, Large servings, Tea, small platters, and noodles pair nicely
Cons: Small amount of seating, get there early, Kind of warm in the summer, wear layers

Delightful surprise - Edit
We tried many small plates and the fox udon, and it was all very well made and beautifully presented. If this place was in a slightly nicer location /building, they could easily charge 50% more. Very very tasty.
Read morePros: All vegan, low-key, delicious, good price

Great New Spot in Goose Hollow - Edit
I am so happy we found this restaurant today! The food is great and a little different than the other vegan places in Portland. The staff was super friendly and the space was pretty cute. I didn't realize the restaurant was there next to Vtopia until we were right in front of it. The food we had was wonderful and the teas were very refreshing. We cannot wait to go back!!!
Read morePros: All Vegan, Plenty of options, Great teas
