I've stopped by this OG establishment over the years. One can find the Japanese community do much of their shopping here. No more 2.95 Cali rolls anymore. It's 4.95 now. I popped by for a quick lunch as I was in the area. Their curry was always decent, this time the rice was so gummy that I had to comment. More training needed, cooking rice is a key foundation to asian cuisine. Another favourite item is their slivered burdock. My knife skills and peeling skills aren't at that level yet. I like how they sautéed/steam this dish with their mirin and soy seasoning. read more

My favorite place to go buy my take away lunch. This japanese store is heaven if you work in the area. Lots of choices from sushi, to bento or donburi... You can find all the traditional dishes. There's even a microwave if you want to heat it up before heading out. Never been disappointed. You also have some snacks and drinks to complete your meal. read more

Fujiya is a very nostalgic Japanese super market for me! They have a ton of Japanese groceries and ingredients, as well as a great selection of meals, sushi, donburis and bento boxes. The prices are still reasonable! read more

I usually come here to pick up a few lunch items and go but as I haven't been here for awhile I thought I would try it again. Unfortunately the quality is no longer as good as it used to be and the prices have also been raised a bit. They are still very generous with their portions but it just doesn't taste as good as before. The sushi is more sloppily made now and the taste isn't the same as before. read more

Bought groceries, gave my bag to cashier to bag. She refused and said you pack it yourself. Very rude and unprofessional. Then she packed groceries of customer behind me. Guess I got the wrong cashier! Grocery selection is good. Service at food counter is fine. read more

This place is great place for lunch if you have a craving for sushi. The food items prices are reasonable and affordable. I often get their salmon roll and California roll. read more

Easily one of my favourite stores to visit that have authentic and amazing quality Japanese food (fresh, frozen and packaged). It is one of the best places to go in the area if you need a quick lunch to go for a really great and affordable price. They have a wide variety of sushi rolls (some are even made to order - ask accordingly), bento boxes, rice bowls, fish, sashimi and appys such as karaage and gyoza. It is a small but mighty store with aisles full of Japanese goodies. Our family always frequents here for comfort and nostalgic items that we cannot find elsewhere. If there is a line - don't be deterred, it moves fast and people are often inside for a mission to get in and get out. The store is clean, staff wear masks and are so nice and courteous. We love getting their sashimi, inari and futomaki set, curry rice and daikon for our meals to reward us from our shopping. Their udon and ramen sets are also a must for east and delicious comfort in a bowl when you're at home or need a quick meal. read more

I'm no sushi snob, but I had to check out Fujiya to see what the fuss is all about. For the price you're getting, don't expect amazing quality. But honestly, for the price you're getting - it's pretty good quality. At $3-$7 per set, it's really nothing to complain about. Definitely can be a go to for cheap reliable sushi! Staff were super friendly too! Come check it out read more

Maybe not only for this location's sushi but other stores too. The wasabi was awful. Totally fake and doesn't dessolve with soy sauce. And no taste. If might be for the cost cut but totally joke for sushi. read more

Food wise its a definitely 3 stars and the reason why I am giving it 4 stars is because of the price. You can't expect paying little and get superior tasty quality food right. Something has to be sacrificed. Well was downtown and I was feeling cheap. Didn't want to spend too much money so decided to come to Fujiya for cheap $2.95 california rolls. If you want gyoza its $1.95 for 6 of them. A donburi is starting $3.95 and can go up to $5.95 depending what is in it. A bento box is around $5.95 / $6.95. See what I mean!! The food is made at the Fujiya in Clark location and then shipped to the Pender location downtown in the morning around 9 am. So the food has been sitting in the fridge since then. But for the price I am ok with it. The first time I came here was back in 2007 when I started working my first real job in downtown. Would come often when working downtown and the line up has always been busy here. Came here just recently since I am in the hood. Nothing changed. The price are pretty much the same as if they ignored inflation. This is a plus! As a tip. if you want good donburi like Unagi Don, come at 11:30 but no later than 11:45 because those sell out super fast. The mad rush comes at noon, when everyone or almost everyone working downtown are on lunch. Love this place and their prices! read more

I'm giving Fujiya 5 stars for being the best affordable take-out sushi establishment in downtown, while keeping their quality relatively high and consistent. Obviously you won't find seafood as good as Tojo's or Miku here, but you can get a very filling and tasty lunch for $5.00 - $10.00 depending on how hungry you are. The majority of their rolls range from $4.50 - $5.50 and they normally come in packs of 8 pieces. I find that on days that I'm not too hungry, I can get away with a spicy tuna roll and miso soup or a combination pack (california, salmon, cucumber, tuna) while on days that I'm famished, I may spend around $8.00+ or so on two packs of sushi or a bento and sushi. Even though there's usually a long line up, you can get in and out within 5-10 minutes since their staff are extremely efficient. Out of all the years that I've been eating here, I've never had a bad experience! read more

The prices here!!!! To die for. I would live here if I could. The sushi is super cheap, rolls filled to the brim and super fresh to boot. We got a little bit of everything since it was so cheap, and my personal favorites were the tofu skin wrapped rice balls, the salmon steak roll, and the shredded beef/egg/vegetable roll. So interesting, so delicious, so enticing. So close the the Vancouver Convention Center too, I believe I came here 2 or 3 times in the 5 days I spent in the area. Highly recommend. read more

Had a company lunch, which meant several party trays. Wow they really know how to decorate their food. The platter of gyozas, all lined up and so beautiful, really brought a tear to my eye. See pics. The chicken karaage was pretty good too. They used little chunks of who-knows-where instead of your typical wings and drumsticks. Really tasty. Recommended if you don't mind paying a few extra bucks. read more

This was terrible! Someone recommended this place to me for take out sushi... it's inexpensive, but not worth it even at the low price. Limited selection of rolls and they have that feeling of having sat around too long. The worst part was the wasabi. It has terrible texture and does not add to the food. Skippable. read more

They specialise in takeaway sushi and Japanese food. The food is prepared at their store on Clark drive and brought in daily. Prices are reasonable, portions and quality are both good. This place gets very busy and sells out of fresh food by 2 or so. Selection is better earlier on. Pro tip - come early and pick up your lunch before the rush, then hang on to it until lunch time. read more

Small grocery store with extensive fresh sushi selection. One of my favourite ethnic grocery stores in Vancouver

End of an era!! They have decided to replace their home made wasabi with some crap in a package. So sad, I mean you have a traditional sushi restaurant and takeout and you have to go on the cheap with packaged wasabi I!!? Look at the ingredients, blue die, green die?? You can't eat this, it tastes terrible and it manufactured with dies. I really thought they could use their original. Too bad! read more

For take out sushi, they do the job. The prices are low, the cashier is quick and the food is good. Where else can you get lunch for $4? read more

Take out sushi with the majority of sushi items priced at $3.95. Beat that! You can't in the CBD area. There is minimal seating in the shop, 4-5 seats at max. Best to take it out, eat at your office or eat in the Bentall Food Court. Quality wise it is great for the price and it is quite good. read more

Been here few times and it's inexpensive and delicious. I can get sushi for low price and fills me up. The rice inside sushi is hard, but I like it. They also have Donburi, Yakisoba,Gyoza and also Chicken Karaage. read more

Love me some Fujiyaaa. Honestly, what's not to love? Fresh grab and go sushi under $5, a great place to hit up if you're short on time and work in the area. The quality's decent for what it is/the price you're paying. They also have bento boxes for a mere $6 that you can warm up in the microwave! Or you can just eat it cold (which I do...I'm a freak, I know.) Limited tables tho, they mostly do takeout. Don't miss their california rolls, apparently it's the cheapest in town! read more

This is a downtown take-out branch of the main store at Clark and Venables, catering to workers in the central business area who want a quick, cheap bite to eat for lunch (the store recently extended its closing time from 5pm to 6pm on weekdays). The popularity of the store is evidenced by the line-ups that often go out the door to the neighbouring shops between standard weekday lunch hours (12pm-2pm). Limited seating is provided indoors (around 6 chairs) and in summertime, outdoor tables are set up in the building corridor. The outdoor seating location is a bit unfortunate, as smokers from the upstairs building have a preponderance to use the main entrance for their fix, and you are directly downwind from them on some days. Fujiya is still Japanese-owned, and the food is correspondingly a cut above what is offered in equivalent stores in the area. That said, to keep prices down (for example, $2.95 for 9 pieces of California rolls, which always seem to sell out first), quality is affected; pre-packaged sushi is delivered in the morning and refrigerated all day, and stock is not replenished. Prices for non-sushi items are also reasonable: $6-$7 for full bento, $4-$6 for 9 pieces of sushi containing fish. Packaged snack items like Pocky, noodles, etc. are also carried. If you want a bag, you are charged 10 cents, which is fine, because the sushi and bento are packaged well and will not spill out on the way back to the office. You get what you pay for here. This store is an "old reliable," for a quick lunch on a budget during a busy workday. read more

I forgot how bad the sushi was the first time I came here, so I went back today. Ugh. I'm not a picky sushi eater by any stretch, but this sushi is inedible. As I ate it, I pondered how old this sushi could possibly be (it's Monday today, so I was guessed - no exaggeration - Wednesday or Thursday.) The rolls are so thick with rice and it's terribly dry - I ended up throwing half of it out. I'm mostly writing this review in case I forget how bad it is again and then Yelp will remind me. The only good thing is they have a little dry goods section where you can buy Pocky, noodles, and other goodies. read more

This is the best grab-n-go sushi downtown. My favourite is their salmon nigiri and maki combo. They also have some good bento boxes. I especially love the tonkatsu bento box. Given that all the food is pre-made off-site, the food is reasonably fresh. They also carry Japanese snacks such as Pocky which tempt you from the shelves as you wait in line to pay. Like many popular lunch spots downtown, be sure to get here early to avoid the line and get the best selection. 4 stars for what it is - cheap and tasty (pre-made) grab-n-go sushi. read more

This place is absolutely awesome. Was a bit hard to find in the beginning, but definitely worth the walk. The sushi and bento boxes here are great and of some variety. The price is very low while the quantity and quality are high. There's also a microwave if you would like to warm up your food. They also offer a small selection of Japanese snacks and drinks. All are fairly reasonably priced. Good lunch place. read more

Having lived in Japan myself, this place brings back memories of running over to the local konbini (convenience store) to grab a quick (and cheap) bento. Fujiya has a really authentic feel, by Japanese standards, although I fear this charm may be somewhat lost on the north american market. Unlike most people, I tend to skip the maki (rolled sushi) zone, opting instead for the bento boxes or donburi. These offer the highest value by far. Check out an oyako-don (chicken and rice bowl), which is guaranteed to fill you up, for $4 bucks! I recommend to heat up for the best experience. Fujiya is a great hidden gem for a quick grab-and-go, and is much better than other so-called 'Japanese' restaurants in the vicinity read more

It is a small grocery store with a huge selection of pre-made sushi. The selection is very good: they have everything from spicy tuna rolls, sashimi, and bento boxes. What can't be beat is the price. You can get a quick lunch for under $4 and be stuffed for $7. Here is how it works. You wait in the cashier line that goes down the aisle where all the sushi is. You pickup a $3 double california roll or a $4 double spicy tuna roll, or a $6 bento box. There are cans of soda for $0.75 or free green tea. After you pay, you can eat at one of the few stools at the front of the store, or head to the park across the street. Although it isn't the best sushi in the world, and there is limited seating, it totally deserves 5 stars for the price and convenience. The cashiers are super nice also. It is only open for lunch on M-F and is tucked behind the Quizno's on Pender. read more

Even after moving offices farther away, I still make time to go to Fujiya. This is not a restaurant, but more like a fresh supermarket for a wide variety of sushi. The chicken kaarage here is, by far, my favourite I have found so far anywhere. This is an ideal place to quickly pop into, grab your sushi and go. They even have bento boxes which you can take back to the office, or home and warm up. Do not be worried about seeing a long line when approaching the store. It moves very quickly and I have never had to wait very long. read more

Yep as good as Japanese takeout gets, Fujiya gets my 5 wholehearted stars! Oh yes sirree. $8 bought me beef yakisoba, one potato croquette, 3 rice onigiri, 3 pieces of chicken karaage, and half of it is still staring at my in the face right now as I am barely able to eat another morsel while I type this. As this place is totally Japanese owned, run, staffed, cooked, cleaned, you can bet your last dollar on its authenticity. I have yelped about their Clark Drive location and today being my first at this downtown locale, I gotta give them credit for satisfying my craving for Japanese bento. I cannot wait for my next craving in 5, 4, 3, 2..... read more

Pre-made refrigerated sushi that is possibly the cheapest lunch Downtown. I had a major case of "big eye small stomach" today, but still only spent $7 and change on food. What a good deal for a pretty alright lunch! Long but quick moving line. No tables to eat at inside, but there are a few tables outside under cover. On a nice day, why not head to the Convention Centre? read more

Best sushi place downtown. Very very cheap! You forget to pack a lunch? No problem get a roll for $3! They have good quality sushi and big portions considering the price. Get there by 1030 when they make their delivery and you miss the line up and get the first selection. read more

Is you want high quality sushi at cheap prices this is the place Fujiya is a pick up and go sushi place and everything there is fresh and meant for take out Fujiya is the lace that supplies a lot of the restaurants in town with fish so they are the source for fish in the city They have created a take out place for rolls sashimi and other mess for lunch for the downtown core When you want a quick fresh meal go here read more

The cooked foods are cold but okay. It's the raw fish that really turns my stomach because there's always an off taste to it. But I keep going back because the California roll is good, especially for $2.95 and it's just too convenient and cheap for me to refuse when I need something to eat at the desk. There's never enough soy sauce so I've taken to hoarding the leftover packets from when I eat California roll (which I eat without soy sauce) and when I get sushi from other places more generous with their soy sauce. read more

I come here for fast take out sushi! You get what you pay for here. The sushi isn't bad but it also isn't amazing. The portions are pretty big and they also sell some Japanese groceries in store. Only a few seats inside so it's mainly for take out. read more

I got Chicken Katsu bento(lunch box), which comes with potato salad and bean sprouts. It's authentic! It tastes similar to the bento you will get in convenience store or subway at Japan. The chicken katsu is marinated pretty well and it's juicy. Since it's a bento, I don't really expect the chicken katsu to be crunchy or fresh - but it's still good. I also like the potato salad in the bento. It's Japanese style so it's a little bit sweet. What I don't like about it is the rice. The rice is too sticky and hard. Rice is very important!!!!!! read more

My go to lunch spot at work. I've grown up loving Fujiya ( the one down Clarke) and had no clue there was one downtown until I started working where I do. Lucky for me, my building is just a 7 minute walk to this little shop ! This location is really tiny, no fresh fish counter like at the Clarke location but they do have all the same prepackaged sushi and what not. Every morning a driver drops off a bunch of the rolls and bowls so you know it's pretty fresh. They also have little Japanese snacks and drinks. The prices are the same at both locations but because this one is in such a prime area and is so small there is always a HUGE lunch rush around 12-2 in the afternoon, so expect somewhat of a line if you go during then. The spicy chicken karaage bowl ($4.95) is one of my favorite things in the world :) read more

My dear, sweet Fujiya!! Thank goodness for u!! I know a lot of people gripe about the line but I really don't mind it cuz it doesn't ever take more than 5-10 minutes (tops! and rarely does it ever get that bad!) and their bentos are so delicious and reasonably priced. My fave is the vegetarian bento. I am by no means a vegetarian (karaage anyone?) but I loooove this box. It makes me feel like I'm eating an actually healthy meal for lunch and really fills me up. Plus, in need if Japanese groceries for dinner? They sell side dish items, umeboshi, random veggies and frozen goods as well! read more
