I'm having flashbacks to the Great Recession, when I kept track of every little business opening for a couple years, ha! Of course the economy is nothing like 2009 but it's still worth celebrating any sign of recovery in post Covid downtown. I used to frequent the Sakura Sushi in this spot before Covid and I'm glad to see something new opening in this area, just a block from the former drug market at 4th and Washington. Couldn't imagine this happening a year ago. There's another location near Powell's on NW 10th, gets good reviews.
