Sushi Village is a Whistler Village institution, having opened 40+ years ago (1985). So when we were in Whistler on a snow/ski/snowboarding trip with a group of friends, we definitely had to have dinner here. We were a LARGE group of 14 adults/teenagers. Fortunately for us, they have a tatami room that seats 14! Even more fortunately, it wasn't REALLY tatami seating -- low table with woven mats on the floor. Instead, it just looked like floor seating. The space under that table was recessed so you sit with your legs extended -- like sitting on a bench. The food was varied, with rolls and nigiri sushi, sashimi, udon, donburi, tempura, and more. There's definitely something for everyone. We ordered some of everything. And while everything was delicious, the standouts were the spider roll, super hiro roll, and crab claw tempura. Honorable mention goes to the strawberry sake margarita. The server handled our massive order of food and drinks expertly. Fun and casual atmosphere. Make sure to book a reservation as it is quite popular. read more

(Kari's Rating 7/10) Came in with a group of eight around 5 PM, they said about an hour and a half wait ended up being about two by the time the other table wrapped up. Our server was very nice and relatively attentive as it was very busy. We ordered tons of apps, takoyaki, beef tempura, a few salads, 5 of the 10 piece chefs Nigiri, the miso cod, garlic beef, udon noodles and a few nigiri. We also got a bunch of hot sake, sake margaritas and a few Sapporo's. Overall a fun place, kinda expensive for what it is with the ocean being as close as it is and not very authentic, but the food was passable. Great for groups but you need to check in early or get a reservation. read more

What an amazing sushi place nestled in Whistler village! Our friend recommended us this place since were going to be here for a few days. Make sure you RSVP otherwise, walk-ins can take from 25 mins -60 mins depending when you go. We went around 5:30 and needed to wait for 20mins for bar seating, 45 mins for a table. The bar was perfect. We went for a stroll and not even 15 mins we were called. We were faced with all the fresh fish in front of us, especially the scallops. They were screaming my name! The place was crowded and happening, great place to warm up with some sake and good sush. I ordered the Beauty Roll - scallops wrapped with salmon and avo - my fav!! It was so good, I had to pace myself. My other two rolls were Uni-Avo Roll and Salmon Maki. They were perfect also. I just went down the placement of my sushi and sampled them until the end. I did, however, did a rookie move - my mouth ate before the camera lol. I was so hungry and it was just too good! My boyfriend ordered the Uni-Avo roll also, Teka-Maki, and the Tuna KFC. He enjoyed them very much, but would make one change - order two Uni-Avo and skip the Tuna KFC. Overall, I would come back here every night! Love love love! read more

YESSSSS this place was fire. Recommended by some friends who came a bit ago and so glad we got reservations ahead of time. Had a cute table where you feel like you're sitting on the floor. Our server was fantastic and the food was even better! So fresh, so delicious. It was great quality in a great environment. 10/10. Probably going again :) read more

We were told about this place when on the lifts earlier in the afternoon. Our new friend said if we wanted something iconic or classic Whistler, we should go here. When arriving you could tell the place was fun, casual, and had history. The signs at the entrance warned you to expect a wait. We got ourselves a Sapporo from the friendly bartender and were seated in no time. We got two apps and two rolls. All were amazing and of good quality food. Our favorite roll was the "not so secret roll", we were so tempted to order another one. read more

Solid 3.3 out of 5. Edible but definitely gentrified/whitewashed sushi for the mashes. Rounding down to three instead of up to 3.5 because the manager looked at me like I was crazy and then proceeded to explain why it was unnecessary ....when I asked for a side ponzu for my yellowtail nigiri. *sigh* I miss my local Japanese restaurants in my hometown. read more

I was seated at the sushi bar and after 15 minutes of being ignored, wasn't even offered water while the folks on either side of me were helped. I was disappointed. I got up and ordered takeout instead. The guy at the counter told me it should only take 10 minutes... It took them almost 30 minutes... No one apologized for ignoring me or the long wait. Decent fish, but not worth the poor service and long wait. read more

Expect to wait over an hour to be seated so go walk around and explore the village while you wait. You will get a text when table is ready for you. Need to have more than 6 to make rsvp. Service is great. Food is mediocre. Place is small and cozy. Price isn't bad considering its location. I am biased since my comparison of good sushi is to Japan and Korea nevertheless this place will more than quench your sushi craving . Good spot read more

I was visiting whistler with a few buddies for a snowboarding trip. We quickly got tired of typical lodge food and decided to switch things up and give this place a try. We didn't have a reservation, so we had to wait about 1 hour which wasn't a problem given there are so many bars and shops in the area. They also have a very efficient texting service. The vibe is cool, a good place to have a few drinks. We ordered the oversized (2 liters) Asahi beer and a pitcher of their famous sake margarita which was great and not too sweet. For the food, we went with a selection of fried appetizers, some maki and special rolls and the udon. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, special shout tour to the fried squid! I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the fish and the authenticity of all the flavors. We liked this place so much we came back one more time before the end of the trip! read more

When I got to Whistler everyone told me the sushi places around the area were very good and unfortunately I waited until my last night to try Sushi Village which was recommended by a lot of people because it was very very good. I got the Sass role and the KFC role (yes it's what you think it would be) and both roles were super good and I highly recommend trying both. If I come back to Whistler I'll be coming back to Sushi Village. read more

Pro tip: majority of the negative reviews are ppl complaining about the reservation process bc they either didn't read the rules or were late. It's a VERY busy restaurant and really excellent for large groups so will almost always be a wait unless you are in line right when they open at 430p. The vibe of this place is buzzy, everyone is happy, rolls are well prepared and fresh. Would recommend 2-3 per person, 2 if you're getting appetizers. We've been coming from years, live in Seattle with plenty of great sushi. Yes expensive but not outrageous for mountain resort dining. Always have had excellent service here too. If you have 6 or more, make a rez. If you have even more email them about a group menu (which will be a per head preset price.) If less than 6, show up early to put your name on the list or be prepared to wait 30 min to 2 hrs for a table. Enjoy it! read more

My boyfriend jacket got stolen. nobody did anything. There are cameras and they told us that they don't turned them on during service hours. It seems it not the first time this happens as we heard the waiters saying "agaaain?" they didn't even tried to help us. It was a very good jacket that cost him all and they treated us horribly.

All the hype and no follow-through. Menu was bland, food all tasted like grocery store level, and the place just felt tired overall. We won't return. read more

Been coming for decades and the place never disappoints. The booking system is a bit better now with ability to get into the wait list and they contact you as your time comes. Expect a long wait as this place is very popular! Sushi is always first rate with the freshest of fish. The service is more MEH but read more

good for multiple families in the reserved rooms, sushi is precut with weak rice. cooked dishes ok, agedashi not very good

We stopped by for udon only and it was what we expected. Cold weather after ski, we wanted udon and this place got that IYKYK.

The food was delicious I really like it. The service was fast and on point they gave us low and high salt soy sauce. The ambiance was to good even though your in Canada it makes you feel like Japan read more

Our experience here was great. It started with the Japanese style set-up inside. You took off your shoes and climbed in to the "room" with a low table and seats. Our service was also really great. Very friendly and helpful. But, of course, what matters most is the food. And that did not disappoint. All of the sushi we had was excellent. Our server recommended the Super Hiro roll when we were trying to decide what else we should get, and that was the best of the bunch. Highly recommend trying that roll! read more

Udon hit the spot after a day on the slopes! Everyone was friendly. Tempura wasn't greasy. Located in the Sundial hotel. It's great!

I don't get why they're rated the way they are because our experience was great. Our service was great, we ordered rolls and teriyaki and then ordered more rolls. Even the pickier sushi eaters in our group wanted more. Very fresh fish and great flavors. Very happy we stopped in. read more

One of the best places to get sushi in Whistler, British Columbia is right here at Sushi Village. Located in the Resort. 2nd floor so make sure you're ready for a tiny bit of stairs. I enjoyed their nigiri sushi a lot. Specially the uni, I'm partial to that. I suggest you give this spot a try and lemme know wutcha think. Thank you so much for reading my review.

This sushi bar was EXCELLENT! Living near San Francisco, we eat a lot of sushi, and this place would easily rank in our top 5. No reservations, but no wait on a Saturday night to sit at the bar. Service was excellent, with drinks, sashimi, then rolls, then nigiri following in well paced, rapid succession. Quality of the fish was top notch. Had the Hamachi and Toro Sashimi, and it was some of the best I've ever had. Rolls were good, and offered twists on more traditional rolls. Nigiri was also excellent, with the only knock being it came in single orders, not pairs as is common. Sake selection was also very extensive. Any of the negative reviews makes no sense to me. This place is well worth a visit! We are in Whistler one more night and will likely go back. read more

What a nice surprise! For some unknown reason we thought this place was not a good place for sushi. We were trying to get in another place, but it was full. Sushi village has a weird reservation policy, we basically got in a waiting list and got messaged when the table was ready. We missed the message and didn't reply for confirmation, but when we showed up they understood and found a table for us, great service! The place is pretty big and busy. We got some Temaki (Negitoro, salmon, maguro) all very very good, assorted sushi, assorted sashimi (forgot to take picture), tobiko sushi, beef teriyaki, yakitori. Everything was delicious, we really enjoyed it very much! Service was kind and attentive. read more

Totally overpriced. Food too salty. $29 salmon dish needs $4 rice to be bought separately. That's weird.

The sushi was good, but it wasn't anything special. I ordered a roll and another to share. I left still feeling hungry, so I would recommend getting 2-3 rolls just for yourself. Service was great though. read more

Sushi Village is a major hotspot for diners. The lines were so long at opening with wait time for a table being up to two hours. The decor is very dated, clean enough space but could use a more inviting up to date space. The staff were very friendly and while it was quite busy our food was served in a timely manner. I did enjoy the Oyster Motoyaki. The Chirachi was great, quite delicious. The Toro and Salmon Toro was just ok it was not great and was a bit too hard. The Black Cod Saikyoyaki was very bland and salty. The Chicken Teriyaki was also very bland not much flavor. The staff were very friendly. read more

Mikito "Miki" Homma opened Sushi Village restaurant in 1985. Whistler was still a developing ski resort, and the timing was right. Since then, this restaurant has become one of the top restaurants in Whistler. Come to Whistler Village for a great experience in the beautiful environment and a great meal at Sushi Village. The food here is all delicious and made with great care and attention. The staff are marvelously friendly. And, altogether, this is the type of place that you will keep coming back again, and again. I know I will. read more

We had a good dinner experience at Sushi Village, although the flavors didn't dazzle the palate like the best sushi restaurants I've been to. Our party of four ordered six different rolls, all of which were great, and full of fresh ingredients. The one that really stood out was the Hot Volcano Roll -- seared tuna, mango, and jalapenos. I was a little disappointed with the lack of Sake selection; and the one they served was rather floral. Would have been nice to have some dry options available. I'd definitely come here again when in Whistler, but it's just not the best sushi experience I've ever had. read more

People are nice. Fish freshness was not an issue. Cooking skill was suspect. Gyoza dish was "ling ling" quality and came out in a brick with an order of 6 stuck together. Beef udon was an overly large and poorly butchered piece of chuck steak or something similar. The rice was not sticky, which at least was a sign of poor skill in the kitchen. At worst could also mean it was old and dried out which is frightening. read more

This was actually some of the best sushi I've ever had hands down. Went here for my girlfriend's birthday while we were vacationing in Whistler. The wait was about an hour, which was exactly what I was told it would be. When you walk in, you immediately see a steady flow of pitchers of blended margaritas leaving the kitchen. What a great first impression. It was my girlfriend's birthday and we were on vacation and pitchers of margaritas seemed ideal. We proceeded to order a steady flow of the strawberry banana. Another shocker was that you are required to take your shoes off when you get to your table and get ready to dine. I love this. I lived in Japan for a while and was glad to see this custom respected. We ordered plenty of nigiri, Toro of course as well as salmon "toro" and their what I believe were local shrimp. We also had plenty of other rolls, some of which I can't remember the names of but I'll post pics. They won't serve you sake bombs per se, but if you order beers and sake and ask for extra cups you can make your own. Our waitress was great. She's from England but I can't recall her name. Whenever you may find yourself in Whistler, make sure you experience Sushi Village and learnt heir story. read more

Really busy and popular. Not the best sushi in whistler but it's really good. The restaurant is nice and if you're a party of two the sushi bar is the best seat. I would come back if I already didn't have a favorite go to. Usual wait for drop in is 1.5-3 hours. read more

I wasn't expecting great sushi in the Village when we arrived but the sushi here was truly fresh and delicious. I was surprised at the quality and reasonable price of the sushi. We also tried their tempura and udon. They were pretty good, but the sushi is what stands out in terms of taste and value! Also ordered sake which was reasonably priced. Great service as well. We ended up going twice during our stay because it was so good! read more
