    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!

    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!

    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.

    Food was amazing!! I went with a few friends and we all enjoyed the food. Service was good and food came really fast. It was a little crowded, but we could still hear each other.

    This place is awesome! I'm a huge sushi lover, and this is some of the best I've found in Vancouver. The sashimi salad was amazing, and the red prawn roll is a must-try. The miso soup was also spot on. I've also ordered their Salmon Teriyaki through a food delivery app, and it was really great! They were super helpful with my peanut allergy. I didn't have any issues --there didn't seem to be any peanuts used in their kitchen which was a relief. The spot is pretty small, so it's perfect for a date or solo lunch/dinner. I didn't see many bigger tables for larger groups, but it would be a great place to sit outside in the summer, I think the outside tables seat 4. Totally recommend trying this place out!

    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.

The server gave me so much info about the restaurant and offerings, but it felt fun and conversational and not like I was being flooded with information. He knew exactly when to check on me and was able to guide me in the ordering process since I was unfamiliar with the menu. I ended up getting a lovely 9oz pour of sav blanc to pair with my meal. The edamame was lovely. Way too much for one person, but not expensive. Ended up sharing with other solo diners. The tofu salad was incredible. I have never had anything like that in my life. It doesn't sound exciting, but it is a true adventure in textures and flavors. I wish I could recreate it, but it was just too special to even attempt. I got their specialty, which was a salmon aburri sushi. It melted in my mouth. So much flavor, perfect texture. I like sushi, but am not an adventurous eater in the world of seafood, so played it safe. This is a meal I will think about for years. The gal next to me got a sampler platter and said the salmon was her fave, so I am so happy I got a plate full of it. Will be back 100 times over.

I completely understand that the space inside is limited, and waiting can be unavoidable. What made the experience less comfortable was not the wait itself, but the way it was communicated. Being asked to wait outside felt a bit cold and impersonal. In situations like this, a more friendly explanation, a small sign at the door, or even a simple system that lets customers know when to come back could make the wait feel much more considerate and human. Running a small restaurant is not easy, especially in today's economic climate. I truly believe that with a warmer, more customer-oriented approach, this place could do very well. This review is meant as a gentle suggestion, and I hope it's taken in that spirit.

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.

The roll we ordered was fine, nothing to write home about. Happy hour pricing makes this an accessible way to try Minami's menu. That said, I left feeling like I'd rather spend more for items not on the happy hour menu.

Okeya Kyujiro is a Michelin one-star theatrical omakase restaurant, and when they say theatrical, they mean it! From the moment you're welcomed by smiling ushers in kimono to the closing tea ceremony, every movement feels intentional, precise, and elevated. The ambiance is serene and anticipatory. At the start, guests sit in silence as a black screen conceals the chefs. You see their shadows moving behind it. A bell rings, the screen lifts, and the performance begins. Dinner is a 25+ course experience priced at $325 per person. It's undeniably a splurge, but for a milestone celebration, it feels justified. The menu is seafood-forward, with many ingredients flown in from Japan. Each ingredient is presented before preparation, then carefully assembled and served directly from chef to guest. Courses arrive one by one, never rushed. The service team moves seamlessly in the background, refilling water and attending to drinks (available as an add-on) without disrupting the flow. The finale is a matcha ceremony, whisked in front of you with the same quiet precision that defines the evening. When the final sip is taken, the bell chimes once more, the chefs and staff bow, and the screens close. It was a beautifully choreographed dining experience, perfect for marking a special moment, and one I'd gladly return to for the next celebration.

    Service was really amazing with servers explaining each dish and drinks were always topped off…read more Food was good, but maybe this isn't quite my style of omakase compared to the other ones I've tried. This is a more theatrical style so expect louder music and a more theatrical experience (eg one of the servers played the flute for the guests celebrating birthdays). I prefer a more intimidate and interactive style of omakase where you can talk with the chefs. This lunch also felt a little fast in terms of progression of the meal. Some of the dishes were very tasty while others didn't wow us. With drinks, we were quite full despite some reviews saying portion is on the smaller size. Our total was around $500 with drinks for 2 people. A really good experience for omakase, especially if you are looking for a unique experience though not my favourite one I've tried.
