This week's Portland Mercury adds to the "fish story" and piles on the praise for Hiroshi. Writer Matt Davis gives a mouth-watering account of the menu highlights, conceding that the new Pearl District sushi restaurant actually lives up to the hype.

I was hoping to be able to tell you that Ikegaya's particular sushi story, like so many that one hears in Portland, has been overstated. However, the sushi at his restaurant, Hiroshi, appears to live up to its creator's reputation. He may not actually be God incarnate, but Ikegaya's sushi sure comes close to heaven.
