Kind of new school Japanese/Asian--the sushi is high quality, but they serve a mix of other Asian styles--eclectic but nothing too weird in terms of fusion cuisine. Good happy hour until 6 too.

Don't be scared by the strip mall location--once you're inside you're eating some of the best Dim Sum in Portland in a huge space mostly filled with Chinese families. Great for weekend Dim Sum brunch, but it can get crowded.

One of the only jazz clubs in Portland but Tuesday through Thursday the great Mel Brown(former Motown drummer and Portland jazz legend) and three different groups hold court playing classic hard-bop and soul jazz. Weekends has touring acts that range from jazz to soul--the Greek food on the menu is pretty good too.

The best classic movie theater in Portland, the Spanish-Moorish facade alone is worth a look. Usually shows a mix of art films, restored classics, or more offbeat fare--you can get pizza and beer in the lobby and there's even a lounge upstairs.

Catholic shrine and sanctuary with a Virgin Mary carved into the side of a rock cliff. Viewing the shrine is free, but for paid admission one can tour the clifftop gardens above. Pretty unique.

It's a nice public golf course, but it also serves as a great place for a jog or walk. A very nice place to stroll, especially around Sacramento Street on the bluff above it(great place for a run).
