Pacific Sushi & Grill

------I just ate the best burger in southern Oregon.

Anyone who is familiar with the mostly remote southern coastline of Oregon will tell you it is not exactly a food-lover’s dream location. It is filled with B-grade diners serving mediocre burgers in dreary settings. They are all the same to. They have overbearing almost roll-like buns.  The patties that are still frozen from the drive home from cash and carry. This comes along with a sloppy garden section and an improper bun-meat-veg ratio. You eat it because you know there’s not much else and you decide to frequent the place that soaks the bun in butter, so you at least don’t taste the garbage you’re being fed…

Today, for the first time in a long time, I ate a real burger that was made by a craftsman. I acquired it at a local spot known for its sushi. After browsing the unique and impressive sushi menu, I noticed they served a Kobe beef burger with a slice of Tillamook. I ordered it and they said it would be 20 min. In exactly 20 min, I received my order, and there it was. A generous serving of the most tender, tantalizing beef hand-pressed into a perfect patty. Its top adorned with a fully melted thick cut slice of Northwest cheese. The garden section was perfect. A thin (not too thin) slice of eye-watering red onion, a slab of crisp green lettuce and vine-ripened tomato. Each flavor only complimented the meat, not a single one stood out or overpowered it. The slice of what I consider Oregon’s finest and most flavorful cheese complimented the perfectly-seasoned meat and together made a creation any artist would be proud of. The bun had grill lines and was warm. Slight crisp, but not firm or dry. It wasn’t covered in butter either. It was not an overbearing, ridiculous, border-line-roll either. It was just the perfect size, not too thick and just the right texture, obviously freshly baked just for this menu item. This made the burger sleek, and it was a fitting look for a meal of this caliber. As I bit into it I couldn’t believe what I’d tasted. I wanted to put it down to call my wife, or take a picture of it, or call somebody! I could not put it down. I had to keep eating it. Each bite more flavorful than the last, my mind was ringing from sensory input overload. The fries were equally as good, and had as much time, thought, and care put into them. I found myself in a rhythm between bites of fry and burger. I could not stop for anything, I was helplessly addicted. The meat-bun-veg ratio was spot on, the textures were perfect, the meat was incredible.  I could tell my fries went into the fryer the minute I ordered, they stayed warm and crisp for my entire meal. The potatoes had been meticulously cut into squares, and then cut long ways to make French fries thus making a perfectly rectangular fry. This is the same way I like to do it and it takes time.  It takes a special kind of person to understand the difference it makes when you care about your ingredients and are meticulously assembling each piece perfectly. This is a level of quality and craftsmanship you will see nowhere else in southern Oregon.  What was even better than the amazing flavors of the dish, was knowing there are still artists out there constantly refining their craft and pushing the limits of our taste buds.  

Thank you so much for the experience,

Fantastic Sushi Restaurant
Real Japanese Chef
By far the freshest highest quality I've had.
We stopped in for lunch while traveling and ended up coming back on our return trip.

I wouldn't say we are Sushi experts, but we know what we like and we LOVED this place. We had 3 sushi rolls. Your basic California Roll that was anything but basic. Fresh, real crab could have been the difference. It came out first and we said to each other "This is the best CA Roll we've ever had. Then came the Chetco Roll, it had smoked salmon, cream cheese and a little slice of awesomeness. Okay wait, that's the best sushi roll we every ate. But to our complete amazement, the very best was saved for last. The Ninja Roll. Spicy Tuna, deep fried, could possibly contain some illegal drugs, because I'm now addicted to it. Our sever was wonderful and the price was more than reasonable. I travel to Brookings about once a quarter and I'm going to find it very difficult, ok impossible, to eat someplace else next time we're in town. Two, no, four enthusiastic thumbs up.

Best Sushi to be found in Oregon !!!!

It's no wonder this is one of the best restaurants on the Southern Oregon Coast !!!    The Sushi is so awesome these guys use the best fish and never skimp on portions
Service is great!!!  It's a win win...

I don't usually eat sushi....so I'm not an expert but we love their terriyaki chicken and burgers, I have tried some California rolls and a Catterpiller Roll and really liked them.
This is a great addition to our community, our daughter eats here frequently and brought us here initially.
Give it a whirl it's great

The best sushi I've found in all of southern oregon. All of the roles are very creative and absolutely delicious. Ironically, they also have the best rib eye steak in Brookings in my opinion. Make sure to leave a little bit of room for the wasabi cheesecake, you won't want to miss that.

A great restaurant to have dinner at the end of the day. I was surprised to find such a lovely place in a relatively small place. Service was a little slow but the fish was fresh, the taste was good, sizes were perfect.

Quite honestly the best sushi on the coast and among my top 5 sushi experiences ever. The head chef was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate for the food. Sake selection was fine but the sushi was divine.

This place is the bomb so glad we found this place the atmosphere is good and our server was so nice. The food was delicious so fresh. This is a must when in Brookings Oregon.🍣🍱🍹

Hands down some of the best sushi we have ever had. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully crafted.
