We ordered the assorted sashimi (chef's choice) and wagyu aburi oshi for a table of 2…read more There was a good assortment of sashimi and it was beautifully presented. The platter included oysters, scallops, hamachi, tuna, sockeye salmon, prawns, prawn heads, and squid. Surprisingly the squid was really good, since I am not normally a squid sashimi person, but it was so tender. The oysters were creamy, and the scallops were nice and sweet. The oshi was supposed to come with truffle, but I couldn't taste any. Other than that it was very tasty.

We were seated immediately and were presented the coolest menus! We noticed another table had this box of sashimi/skewers and was immediately convinced we had to get it. SHOKADO box, do it. You won't regret it. Our server was lovely and gave us a very warm welcome as it was our first night in Victoria. The vibes were amazing - people were doing sake bombs and having a great time.

Our favourites were again the Japa Roll and the Zero Roll! This time we added the assorted tempura bowl which was great! Service was good the staff were very nice!

However we were able to be seated at the bar and it was great nonetheless. Service was excellent, the bartender who also took our order was super nice and gave great recommendations. She even gave us secondary suggestions for food that was out for the day. Inside was pretty lively, good interior and clean. Overall, not too pricy for good quality sushi and seafood. The portions for each roll/ nigiri/ sashimi piece was very reasonable as well. Loved it! A good sushi spot in Victoria! Definitely recommend.

We were seated right away. I ended up ordering Gekikara Tonkotsu and it was good. Noodles were good. Pork belly was surprisingly and unpleasantly mushy though. They did provide more toppings than expected. Service was pleasant and attentive. Overall, it was a decent visit. Nothing too memorable but it did the job.

The atmosphere is super chill and nice here, perfect for a date night…read more I really enjoyed the specialty rolls. We ordered the pop corn roll which has deep fried scallops. This was delicious. The volcano was cool, as it came torched. It also comes with a lot of tuna sashimi, and I was impressed with this! The curry chicken katsu was quite dry so I would not recommend this dish. The chicken was very thin.

Their portions are fantastic, and for such a great price. The mixed veggies were excellent, the tuna was good, and I loved the squash croquette. One thing that I didn't like, was the tempera batter, it was a bit too hard. Next time, I would love to try the chef's special. One of my neighboring tables ordered it, and it looks like it would be good for 2-3 people to share if they ordered a few other small items. They have a dog friendly patio.

What a lovely find in Vancouver Island. This Japanese restaurant is not typical Japanese food like…read moresushi but lovely dishes that is served bento style.

My husband and I were on a cruise, and the ship docked in Victoria. Since we've already visited…read moreVictoria several times, we decided to just walk around the beautiful city. We came across Shizen Sushi and decided to get a snack since we were doing our own food tour. My husband ordered an Ahi Nigiri Sushi, and I ordered a California Roll. Both items were absolutely delicious! My husband said the Ahi was super fresh. We both wished that we could've ordered more, but we knew we were going to make several other stops. Our server was Yerin. She was amazing. We enjoyed chatting with her, and she provided excellent service! I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area!

The only thing they said was the food isn't ready and would be longer - they were not apologetic in any way (I had preordered the food more than 3 hours in advance), I had also asked for cutlery for 3 and was provided with 2. Other guests came into the restaurant too and were not greeted nor acknowledged. They were chatting amongst each other about how it's odd multiple servers came by and yet no one was able to assist them but the hostess who was nowhere to be found...

Interesting place highlighting sushi and wagyu beef! I stuck with sashimi this round. As the name…read moreimplies, they offer a wide variety of cuts from the fatty belly of fish. Aside from the standard otoro and chutoro from blue fin tuna, they also had toro cuts from hamachi and albacore. I had to try all the toro cuts and actually I landed on the chutoro being my preferred belly sashimi. The bite of the night however went to the uni sashimi which can always be hit or miss. It was probably some of the best and fresh tasting uni I have had! The hamachi sashimi was also a stand out and actually tasted better than the hamachi toro. Service was actually pretty great and their suggestions (which included the uni) were spot on. Definitely need to branch out to the wagyu next time!
