    Sashimi platter
    Betty V.

    It was a lovely experience coming here. The service was good, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. We ordered sashimi, rolls, and sake. Everything came out very tasty. I'm usually not a rolls kind of gal but their scallop and special rolls are really good. I highly recommend this sushi restaurant. By the way, the ambiance is quite nice; the decor is appropriate and the place is clean. I didn't use the restroom, so I can't speak for that. It is a must-try. I will visit again once I am back in town.

    Kkanpunggi
    Julianne L.

    We ordered the Kkanpunggi for the table; the triple spicy roll, dynamite roll, and rainbow roll were split by myself and one other person; and others ordered the chicken and the beef teriyaki, so I got a chance to try some of that too. Overall I thought the sushi was decent and was plated well. I think there could have been thicker pieces of fish on top of and inside the rolls. My favorite of the three was the triple spicy roll because of the roll itself and the large amount of crab meat on top. The other cooked food was okay. The teriyaki chicken and beef were dry and didn't have enough teriyaki sauce. Extra teriyaki sauce was an extra $0.75, which we didn't know until we got the bill. The Kkanpunggi was good - a little spicy and was presented nicely. The food was a bit slow, but the staff were nice and refilled our water when necessary. Cost-wise, it's pretty affordable and they have lunch specials and takeout discounts. I'd probably come back again because of the discounts, but there are many other sushi places to try around the city that I'd prioritize.

    My friend highly recommended this place so we went there for dinner on a Wednesday. My friend had already ordered food before I got there so I can't remember everything I got, but I can tell you that they have a HUGE menu! It's kind of overwhelming how big it is and how many options they have. I will say, everything we ordered was SO delicious!!! Their service was spectacular and the food came out so quickly. I can't wait to go back and try other stuff from there. Their presentation was also really good, truly ""drool-worthy

    Nice sushi spot downtown! Lots of seating and service can take a bit longer on a busy day. The chopped scallop roll was so good cause they put extra scallop on top. The tempura was also light, crispy and fresh. Everything was overall really good

    Love this place!! Tons of creative and unique sushi rolls to choose from and the price is reasonable! I believe there's a discount if you order for pick up too. We got to eat on the patio which is rare for a sushi spot. Looking forward to trying more from here. These 3 rolls came to $47 including tax and the two of us were very full.

    Pretty good spot for sushi takeaway and it's a good deal for a party tray if you're ordering for multiple people. You can order directly online from the store instead of through third party sites like door dash and it'll be cheaper!

    Quite possibly one of the best sushi places I have EVER been to. It helps that Vancouver is known for having amazing sushi, but even without that title, this place really stood out for me in all the best possible ways. The menu here is HUGE, and it's not just sushi you can find here. They also have delicious bento boxes, katsu, and so much more. I ordered their beef teriyaki bento box for lunch, as well as a few sushi rolls and was really impressed with how fresh all the food tasted. Prices were also quite reasonable. The restaurant is also kept well clean. I noticed that the staff here thoroughly wiped every table and seat. The washroom was also very clean, so this gave me a sense of peace over how meticulous the staff are with ensuring you have a great dining experience here. The staff are very friendly and sweet, too! I will definitely return here the next time I am in Vancouver.

    Amazing spider roll.

    Excellent food and service. Moderately quiet. Waitress was attentive and sushi was amazing. Some of the most beautiful presentation ever!

    Great spot for sushi downtown. Service is quick and there are seats downstairs and upstairs. I enjoyed the negitoro roll and the salmon Aburi. The presentation is really cool with the flame!

    Tarandeep S.

    We had a good time here. We ordered a lot and pretty much everything was good. Ambiance is great. Service is good. They have this tuna bucket which seemed like it was made way in advance and the tuna marinated in acid had lost all its texture and was a mushy dish which was inedible. That makes me remove a star. Other than that I liked everything else. Not sure if it was a bad day or that's how they serve it. This was also the most expensive dish so it hurt a bit.

    Cynthia S.

    Amazing service, really nice interior and extensive menu! Ordered the spicy salmon roll and Alaska rolls and both were super fresh! Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for tasty sushi on Davie st!

    Gyoza spicy in back and non spicy in the front. Go for the non spicy!
    Vicky D.

    The food was a bit sweet for my profile and it was everything. It's not a bad place for dinner or lunch if you tend towards a sweeter palate. We got the oshi spicy tuna, soft shell crab, yakisoba, udon and don buri chicken katsu. We also had the triple spicy role and gyoza spicy and none. We went with a big group are we're super hungry! I like the ambiance that they had an upstairs that overlooked the street. Cute casual place! The servers were very nice. Overall I didn't love the sweet flavor in everything except the udon.

    Picked up takeout dinner from here recently and thought it was pretty good. I called in around 4:15 pm on a Thu afternoon and placed my order, and was told my order would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I got there 10 minutes later and it was ready for pick up! The restaurant itself is small and doesn't have too many tables. To my surprised, there were 3-4 tables seated already for an early weekday dinner at 4:30 pm, so I assume this place gets popular later in the night. I ordered the salmon oshi roll ($14.95), California roll ($4.95), and two pieces of chopped scallop nigiri ($2.75 each). The California roll and chopped scallop roll were pretty good and I enjoyed them, but the salmon oshi roll had too much rice compared to the thin piece of salmon on top. Also, there was something sweet in the salmon oshi roll I didn't like, perhaps the yam? I'm not used to the sweet flavor so it came across as a bit odd. I'd come back again if I was in the area but would stay away from the salmon oshi roll.

Every time I come, I can feel the professionalism and attentiveness of the staff. From seating to ordering, and then to the care during the meal, everything is done with great finesse, making me feel comfortable and at ease. The unique politeness and meticulousness of Japanese service are naturally reflected here. The food is also a reason I want to come back. Whether it's the freshness of the ingredients, the presentation, or the taste, you can feel the attention to detail. Japanese cuisine emphasizes the quality of the ingredients themselves, and Miku presents this refinement beautifully. Every dish is pleasing to the eye and has a layered flavor. I also love the ambiance. The overall design is simple, elegant, and has a very comfortable Japanese aesthetic. The lighting, seating, and spatial layout all create a relaxing atmosphere without feeling overly decorated; instead, they have a high-quality feel. As for the atmosphere, I think it's what makes this place so special. Elegant and quiet, yet not too formal, it's suitable for dates or enjoying a good meal with friends. Sitting there slowly eating and chatting makes the whole dining experience particularly comfortable. After several visits, I still feel that Miku is a restaurant worth returning to again and again. It's not just because of any one dish, but because the service, cuisine, environment, and atmosphere combine to create a very pleasant experience every time I come.

    Very good experience. Love to go again with my family every month . love the experienceread more

Once we ordered and paid, the food probably took less than 7 minutes to come out - so quite fast. I tried both the Omu Curry Rice with Pork Cutlet and the Omu Hayashi Rice with Nikomi Hamburger Patty. Both looked very home-cooking style dishes, but in a good way that is very different from what you can find in a Japanese restaurant in Vancouver. Flavours were good, the portion sizes were generous and the prices were reasonable. Staff were very friendly. They made sure so thank us before we went out the door. Overall, a very pleasant experience. I liked the food, and always supportive a hard-working family. I'd come back again.

I would recommend chicken or shrimp if you want a protein. I had the tonkatsu (pork) which was a little tougher. The thinly sliced pork with cheese inside was the best bite I had.

My hubs and I vacationed in Vancouver a few weeks ago in late April. We had seen the long lines for dinner at Saku when we were here more than a year ago. So, we decided to give them a try for a late lunch around 2pm on a Wednesday afternoon. No wait. We got seated right away. We liked how spacious and airy the dining room was. Our wait staff were friendly and on point. They were considerate about answering our questions about the food and food allergies. I ordered the chicken thigh katsu ($26 Can) and my hubs got the chicken thigh curry ($28.50 Can). No dairy involved in either dish which I was happy about because I have challenges digesting milk protein. Yes, it's kinda pricey. Yes, it's totally worth it. The katsu is light, crispy, fried perfectly, not greasy, and comes with unlimited rice, miso soup, finely chopped cabbage salad, and an addictively delicious sesame dressing. My hubs' curry sauce was served on the side so he could pour out as much or as little as he wanted. All in all, it was a very pleasant and satisfying meal. Saku is top notch for katsu. You won't believe how good katsu can be until you try it.

Each piece gets torched over charcoal which gives it this smoky, melt-in-your-mouth quality, and the specialty sauces mean you don't even reach for the soy (they will also say to your face not to, so unless you want to endure their judgement--which my husband happily does--I'd stay away from soy sauce for the aburi. Their salmon oshi is well known, I love the ebi oshi the most but definitely get both and decide for yourself. The whole menu delivers though, from the sashimi to the rolls to the cocktails, all of it beautifully plated without feeling fussy. The space is nice too, took a big group of family here once after an event and they all loved it. And if you're here in the summer ask about the garden patio out back. It's an elevated experience but never stuffy. Perfect for a date night or when you want to treat yourself. Reservations are a good idea because it fills up.

I made reservations about 4 months in advance. Upon arrival, one of the hostesses opened the door for us, and asked us to wait in a very ornate waiting area. We only waited a couple of minutes before another hostess seated us at the main seating area. The space is very dark, and only lit with candles while the rest of the diners trickled in. During that time they take drink orders, which is limited to sake, wine, beer and a few non-alcoholic drinks. Of note, they don't provide a drink menu, so we were a little surprised by the cost - the yuzu sake and the plum wine were $30 each. My non-alcoholic drink was $12, but a fair size. The theatrical portion started a few minutes later than the official start time - closer to 6pm. The shades lifted, the lights turned on, and the chefs introduced themselves. And from that moment on, they immediately went to work preparing our meal. They operate like clockwork to show the ingredients whole to the diners, and then preparing them, and serving them. Soon as the one dish was completed by all the diners, the next round came shortly after. Over 20+ dishes, there was very little wait time in between each. Each time a dish was served, a hostess was there to describe the dish and provided tips on how best to eat it. The food was overall was very good. I thought a few items were very average, most of them were very good, and a select few were truly outstanding. Most of the ingredients are imported from Japan, so I would imagine that it's part of the reason it's so expensive. This is definitely a splurge meal. I think half the diners at our sitting was celebrating a birthday. On the most part, the food is very good, watching the chefs at work is part of the entertainment, and the service is excellent.
