Ok. Takeout Order. What stood out for me with this place was the sushi rice was overcooked. To the point of it puréing in your mouth, so it washed away with it any other taste in the roll. Unfortunate. The Pork Gyoza was nice. Tasty. I think the dip could've tried harder. Had more potential. Could've aimed higher. You know...a nice tangy, tart, citrusy, clean finish to a pan fried pork filling wrapped in phyllo pastry. This dip fell short. Yeah. It's the over cooked sticky rice by about a week that's got me. I think I still got some stuck at the roof of my mouth. Honestly, It was very average. Not Good. Not Bad. For the price point. Quite Fair. read more

Was craving for sushi and this was just. 5 mins walk from my hotel. The location was convenient but looks like parking is a hassle. It's just Vancouver. Wide variety of selection on the menu. I choose my favorites and it didn't disappoint. However the amaebi was the smallest I've seen. Overall the fish was fresh and pricing was ok. read more

Fresh Sushi is our go to sushi spot when we want something in the neighborhood. It's bright and clean, service is relatively quick, and it's convenient for a simple sushi dinner. Their spicy salmon is very good, and they always give generous thick slices when we order salmon sashimi. read more

FRESH Sushi - salmon sashimi, salmon tataki roll, negihama maki and salmon maki - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

WHEN: Wed @12:30pm This spot seems to be set up more for take out but there around 4 tables to dine in and we lucked out. Here's what I had: MISO SOUP - $2 CAD Standard, it helped fill me up! UNAGI OSHI (6pcs) - $16 CAD Flame seared unagi pressed box sushi seaweed sesame furikake, tobiko, green onion on top. Really good. These oshis are like regular sushi sashimi but square...and added toppings. I really enjoyed it and haven't seen this anywhere else! Everything was good and prices are reasonable if you converted to USD. It came out to be like $15. This place is super convenient especially during a conference event at the Parq and it's so reasonably priced and delicious! read more

Excellent fresh sushi, clean and excellent service. Beautiful restaurant and reasonable prices. Would definitely return!

I was staying at a hotel nearby and after being on a 4 hour train to get to Vancouver I was starving. Found Fresh Sushi really quickly and I am so glad I did. I had the salmon and tuna sashimi and a boxed salmon roll. Wow, so good. This place beats the local sushi place back home. If you are in Vancouver check them out. Also, if the owner ever sees this, maybe one day you can franchise and open a restaurant in California, more specifically the Bay Area. read more

I am a Japanese native and is picky about sushi dining. Went to Fresh Sushi unplanned and it met my quality expectations. Sushi chefs know what they are doing. Thank you! Priced right and it is a very clean dining place. I really enjoyed the house special Fresh Rolls. Mmm! read more

I got the tuna oshi, negitoro & quail egg nigiri, tamago nigiri, and a miso soup for takeout. I was really impressed with the quality across the board, but the oshi in particular was fantastic. So much flavour in every bite and the texture was perfect! Their prices are much cheaper than a lot of similar places downtown, but the quality definitely doesn't suffer for it. The one thing they didn't follow through on was that I ordered the nigiri with brown rice and they gave me white. They didn't include a printed receipt with my order, but I double checked my online receipt through the site I ordered through and I did indeed ask for brown rice. Obviously I still enjoyed my food, but it was a bit frustrating as brown rice costs extra (only $.15 each, but extra is extra). read more

FRESH Sushi - Tuna Oshi, Negitoro & Quail Egg Nigiri, Tamago Nigiri - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

THE BEST SUSHI AND GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! I leave couple of bocks from them and have been eating and ordering from that place for years. I appreciate that the sushi are made at the time of order and not cold from the fridge. I remember that one time the waitress was assisting an old lady outside that probably had memories issues to find her family and was lost. I took over and help this lady. I was sincerely touched that the waitress took time to interrupt her job to assist this lost old lady. It's nice to see that not everyone is a frustrated "Angry Karen" giving bad reviews on internet. This restaurant meets and exceeds my expectations for and friendly service. read more

FRESH Sushi - Tasty fast friendly ! - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Just moved to the neighbourhood and have been looking for my new go-to sushi spot. This is it. The room is comfortable, the food is on point and service is fantastic - attentive, never intrusive and always quick to refill cups of tea and answer any questions. The food is what truly makes this a 5 star sushi spot. The salmon aburi is insanely addictive - and different enough from Miku that you appreciate it for itself instead of trying to compare the two. The Uni was so well priced and sparkling fresh. Another standout was the negitoro with quail egg - clean and bright and then cut with the pop of richness from the egg yolk. We left very happy - and planning to come back right away! read more

FRESH Sushi - Wild sockeye salmon nigiri, spicy chopped salmon nigiri, negitoro with quail egg nigiri - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

One of my favourite sushi places. They really live up to their name "fresh sushi" because it truly is good quality sushi. Highly recommend !

We were recommended to this restaurant by someone working in the area. The oshi is a must get as they both pack a punch in flavour. The salmon one was spicy and creamy. The tuna was mild in spiciness and had bits of crunch. Personally I liked the salmon more, but my fiancé preferred the tuna. The negitoro roll was fresh, but the roll that stole the show was the Popeye's. You may think spinach and asparagus to be very ordinary ingredients, that is, until you add the black sesame dip into the mix. A veggie roll with a crunch and a sweetness that makes you beg for more. It's a bit of a walk from any transportation and hard to spot (hidden around the corner). However, I think the effort to find this gem is worth the delicious and affordable treats. Small place, but big place in my stomach. Service was okay, but when it gets busy, it'll take a while to get to you. read more

This sushi restaurant is solid. The food is always fresh and of a good quality, the staff are friendly and courteous, and the service is fast. I usually get take out, but have dined there on a few occasions. It's not the most comfortable place to eat furniture and ambiance-wise, but it's fine for casual sushi restaurant. I eat here a lot, and I don't vary my order much because I have my favourites - tuna, dynamite roll, miso soup, agedashi tofu, tempura, spinach gomae, and a few other rolls. What I really like is that they offer a brown rice option, which I always get. I also always order extra ginger, and they don't charge me for that. The food is always consistent and dependable. A great staple! read more

Needed a quick meal for my partner and I and decided to place a to go order here. Ordered the crunchy spicy tuna roll, dynamite roll, salmon oshi, and the takoyaki. Order was ready within 15 min, service was friendly and sushi was just okay. We enjoyed the crunch spicy tuna roll, other two rolls were okay, and the takoyaki was fairly bland and doughy. I would order again for a quick meal. read more

We had Real Crab meat roll, Pressed Salmon roll, Tuna tataki roll with ponzu sauce. Everything was tasty and especially Pressed Salmon roll was so delicious. The idea to use ponzu was impressive too. It's typical for tataki dish and missed dishes in Japan. I guess they researched very well. read more

Terrible. I ordered the sushi maki and teriyaki chicken don and it was all mush. Terrible consistency to the point where I'm turned off from eating sushi for a while now. The texture was like baby food. Shivers up my spine as I type this. I started with the maki and immediately gaged and couldn't eat it. Then tried the Don and same thing. I ended up throwing all the food out and only drank the miso. read more

Great service and name speaks for itself. Had Bento along with Crunch spicy salmon. Best I've had

**Update 7/7/2019** I don't get any pleasure from downgrading my rating of this small restaurant, as my family comes here frequently (as much for take-out as we dine in), and the food is fresh and good and well-priced (my kid says this place has the best sashimi she's ever had and we always order that here). BUT their methods for dealing with customers who walk in to place orders for take-out leaves much to be desired. Here's our recent experience: we visited around 5pm, and we simply wanted to order some sushi and sashimi for take-out. There were a few people waiting outside the door for their take-out orders, and a guy waiting inside by the counter for his order. Most tables were occupied by diners but two were vacant. My kid and I waited by the counter to place our order, and the woman at the cash was busy tallying other customer's bills (she was busy and didn't look up at us although it was clear we were ready to place our orders and we were a foot away from her). After 3 or 4 minutes of waiting, the phone rings by the cash and this lady answers it. Instead of asking the caller if it's okay to put them on hold as she is helping customers there in front of her, she proceeds to take the callers' order (which was long and obviously involved), and had us wait another 5 minutes or so while she helped the person on the phone. This is a big pet-peeve of mine. I've worked retail for many years. You DON'T ignore the paying customer in front of you, who actually came into your store, and keep them waiting, while you assist people who call from the luxury of their homes (or wherever), not bothering to come in. You ask the caller to please hold and then you help the paying customer who is IN FRONT OF YOU. (Sorry for the caps, but I feel so strongly about this). To add insult to injury, once we DID get acknowledged and helped by this lady and we placed our order and paid, then another woman in the restaurant told us to move away from the cash. We got shunted to two different areas, settling on awkwardly standing by the door while we waited for our meal. This place has fresh food at good prices, but they really need a better system to deal with customers coming in for take-out: not ignoring clients in store to deal with call-ins, better signage for placing orders at the cash, and a designated area for waiting. read more

Really prompt service, great value, ample selection and high quality food. A great option for a quick dinner!

It was decent but not anything out of the ordinary. Sushi was actually a little on the bland/tasteless side. They have a few tables but probably best for takeout. read more

Food was very fresh and service was quick and good. Definitely one of the best sushi spots in the neighbourhood. Fair pricing.

This was recommended by a friend as a budget friendly sushi spot and it did not disappoint. This cute little gem near Yale town is a little small but has very fresh sashimi and mouthwatering pressed box sushi! The pressed sushi doesn't taste nearly as good as the one at miku but that doesn't mean it doesn't taste good. It's a great price and the quality is great too! The waitress was very attentive and the food came out in a timely manner. I do not have anything negative to say and highly recommended fresh as a quick sushi or even date night. read more

Very fresh, well sized sashimi and well made rolls. Some of the rolls had a little too much japanese mayo for our liking, but they were still good. Tiny place, maybe 8-10 tables (they use outdoor patio furniture for tables). The service was friendly and efficient, they were great with the tea refills. Great prices and feel for the neighborhood, we will be back. read more

We stopped in here before the hockey game. The place wasn't too busy but we did notice only one server on the floor which isn't unusual since the place is fairly small and it was a weeknight. We ordered assorted sashimi, seafood udon, spicy salmon roll,gomae, ebi sunomono and a miso soup. The food got to the table fairly quickly and the sushi chunks were of good size. And they tasted really fresh. My sister liked her udon as well. The soup broth had a good taste to it. Only complaint I have is the service. I think the server must have been fairly new because we didn't get our tea until we got our food and I asked her about my miso which didn't arrive with my food, and I never got it. We had to remind her to take it off the bill at the end. She seemed struggle little bit with the other customers as well. Other than that, the service was good. They greeted us when we arrived and when we left and the food was good as well. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is in the area. read more

Fixes a craving for sushi. Fast and affordable. I dislike the shrimp in the tempura, thin and lacking in flavours. I got their spicy tuna for the roll. Great for pickups too, just call and drop by 15 minutes later. Don't be fooled by reviews regarding "previously frozen" fish, BC Law requires that all raw fish be frozen for at least 48hrs before consumption to kill parasites and things you might not want inside you. To get super raw fish, go to Japan. Overall a decent experience, nothing to write home about but if you live nearby, definitely worth a try. read more

Came here for a meal before a concert at rogers arena (before their menu update) and ordered a salmon and tuna combo, a dynamite roll and chicken teriyaki roll. For two people, this was hardly enough and compared to other places, quite expensive. There was nothing spectacular about the taste but nothing tasted off so I guess that was good? Overall, not bad for sushi but there is definitely better, cheaper and more interesting sushi around. read more

Good sushi. Have been using them for several years now. The only problem is that the quality is not always consistent. On rare occasions the rice is too dry. Great service and very quick. read more

My go to take out sushi place! They are reasonably priced and always fresh. My pet peeve is unripe avocado in sushi, and this place always uses ripe avocados! Highly recommend the salmon oshi sushi, it is so delicious and very filling. The teriyaki is above average and juicy. I prefer take out as the place doesn't offer any alcohol options so enjoy a Sapporo or Asahi with your sushi at home! read more

Acceptable for a small place where at least some 30 people fit. The service it's ok. The food not too bad but for a quick bite does it's job. Just went there once and was enough. Seen better in all aspects. Employees need to work on service like being nice and all that. Good enough for a sushi eater with minimum standards. read more

The have really fresh uni, ikura, tobiko, and avocado at all time! I have been their customers for the last 6 years and they have nailed it each time! Love the hot Indonesian as well! read more

This is a good place for us to go for lunch. Sushi is decent but also quick! They just redid their menu which took away some bento items but added an all day bento box that is totally worth it. They're friendly and respect my allergies and I come once a week. read more

I LOVE this place. I live nearby and have tried several sushi places in the area but none of them compare in freshness, service, and deliciousness. I always order their california roll, crunchy spicy tuna/salmon roll, and their house roll. My boyfriend and I are huge fans and don't go anywhere else for sushi. Would highly recommend! read more

Top three reasons I love this place: 1. The sashimi is melt in your mouth delicious. 2. The service is adorably polite. 3. The presentation of your food is always neat and tidy (ie. SO EAT-ABLE)! I work close-by and often go here. It gets busy during the lunch hour, so you may want to call in ahead of time. I guess waiting for the food is the only downside if you're pressed for time and unprepared; but hey, it's well worth the wait! They have a wonderful selection of sashimi and everything I've had there is close-your-eyes-moan-and-groan-delicious! And a big plus for me, they're never reluctant to customize orders. And an even bigger big plus is that they remember you when you come back! So, when I come in for my Alaska roll, she knows "no sauce". Definitely one of the best kept secrets in Vancouver! read more
