A QUEST TO FIND THE BEST UDON IN PORTLAND, OREGON

Blue Fin Sushi

1988 SW Broadway

Blue Fin is one of those conveyor belt sushi places, but everything seems fresh, and the udon is made to order.  It's about what I would expect from a place in the PSU area.

Noodles:  Fresh, chewy, not slimy (see fresh).

Broth:  Maybe a little salty; unoffensive if unimaginable.

Extras:  Green onions, a soggy tempura shrimp, and kamaboko whose edges were a positively alarming shade of pink.

Sides:  None.

Price:  Their online menu doesn't have prices, but I'm pretty sure it's less than $6.

Conclusion:  Not ideal, and everything but the noodles were of obviously cheap quality, but the low price and the freshness of the noodles mostly make up for it.  I should also note that when I took the notes for this review it was the third time I had ordered it there, so it can't be that bad.  Recommended.
