Zilla Sake, Portland’s pioneering sake bar, opened its doors in 2007 and swiftly became a cornerstone of the city’s vibrant sake culture. As Portland’s sake scene flourished, Zilla remained at the forefront, offering a meticulously curated selection of both popular and exclusive sake varieties, hand-picked by the owner. The summer of 2008 marked a pivotal moment with the introduction of Zilla’s sushi bar by head chef Kate Koo, transforming the venue into a high-end sushi destination steeped in tradition. By 2016, Kate Koo took full ownership of Zilla Sake, where she continues to artfully blend innovation with time-honored practices, creating a dining experience that honors the past while embracing the future.

Feel very misled by the new years dinner “special”. Paid $100 to find out it was a “deposit”. Then had an amazing dinner. Great place. THEN… got our bill! $498. $150/per person just for the food, (which was very minimal)…. then we got “add ons” of the wagyu and the Uni…. $30 for a 1/2” piece of wagyu and a 1/2” roll of uni. Feel like they should have advertised more appropriately. Felt obligated to be “ok” with this bill. Then, got home and realized… they charged our card for the full $498… so, still waiting to figure out where my deposit went. Guess the meal was $598. Won’t go again.
