I called previously and asked if I could make a reservation for three, for about an hour later. She was a total bimbo on the phone, however. So we got there, and this girl came up to me, I wasn't sure if she worked there or if she was just some random scuzzy girl off the street who decided to approach me. She was dressed a bit too casual (casual is an understatement, frumpy as all hell) and looked underage. It turned out to me the girl who was supposed to seat us. I told the girl at the door that I had a reservation, I told her my name. She looked on the list, and my name wasn't even written down! I was immediately annoyed. I said that I phoned earlier and someone took my name down for the list, why would they not write it down? She retorted by giving me attitude, she said "Its cool" and was snarky and unprofessional and just kinda walked away. I don't need much to have an enjoyable dining experience, as in, I am generally easily amused and not nitpicky, but if one is going to work in the customer service industry, they might as well be pleasant to the customers and not a social failure. Is it really that hard to greet people at the door with a smile and not a condescending tone? Isn't that what they get paid for? Like, I get it, it's a busy place and they are stressed out, but YIKES! Epic fail. -They were playing awful music too loud. Yes, I dig loud music, but not loud crappy music so I can't hear myself think or talk to my friends. -The tables are way too close together, it was awkward. -Dingy, filthy and dark and sticky, I can barely see what I am eating. I wouldn't want to see this place fully lit. I have a feeling it would be disgusting. The only light is coming from black lights, and a random really tall candle in a bottle as a candleholder that my friend almost accidentally tipped over into my face. We eventually said screw it, and moved our only source of light to a different table, which resulted in it being even darker. This place is riddled with hipsters which ruined my dining experience. The only props I give this place is for the creativity of the rolls, and Princess Mononoke being played on the projector screen. As for the food, it was okay, but definitely not worth the price they were asking. It is overrated and I am surprised at how popular its gimmicky nature makes it. If it weren't for the decorations this place would be less than nothing. What a rip off. read more

Atmosphere and music were great, although very hard deep house music was a lot at times when you are trying to chat. Service, was horrible once we were sat we had no menus and someone came by with two very large glasses of warm water filled to the top so it spilled as they slammed it on the table and continued to walk away. After another server came by, she asked us if we were ready to order and I had to tell her we didn't even have menus yet. So how could we be ready? When giving her our order, I had a few questions and she stood there looking over her shoulder as I was talking as if she had someone else more important to be and as I was finishing my order she started to walk away. Not very polite, sushi arrived and tasted delicious with some very different flavour combinations. Couldn't get anyone's attention to get a refill of my drink, or napkins and heaven forbid I may of wanted more soy sauce. When your ordering make sure you ask for everything at once because once your food comes don't count on seeing a server until you've finished. We asked for a little box for our leftovers and she brought the bill and placed it on the table, although we wanted to order another drink. We didn't bother because we were being rushed out the door. Awful customer service, and definitely do not recommend going there to eat in. Awful experience read more

How is this place still in business, and why are you people still going here!!!!! Just down the street either direction are a few other sushi places that HAVE To be better than this place. I've been 3 times.... and every time the service is rotten, and the food is average to below average. The last two times were because it was for someone's party, and I just didn't have the heart to tell them I couldn't go because the restaurant they picked was vile... *sigh*. The second last time should have been the last time... big group... maybe about 12 or so people... took a while for things to get settled down, and get orders in... that seemed to go well, but when it came time to get the food out... it took a while (wasn't super busy in the place either), but the fiance's food didn't come out with the rest of it. We asked the server... she said she'd look into it... nothing.... nothing... soon, everyone was finished, and STILL nothing from the kitchen for her... finally after everything was cleared off, and away, her order came out. Wow.... why bother at that point... she'd snacked off of a few people's plates, and at that time was so thoroughly disgusted by the wait she didn't even want to eat it (she had a bit... and that was pretty disappointing too). Please... please please stop going here people... then it will either have to get better, or close (either being a good option). read more

This place could use a thorough clean up. The food is not the best but the volume is good. It's better than food court Japanese food but it's more for the decor (which is dusty). If you are hungry and have no delicate palate then it's a good place to go get filled. read more

the service here is terrible. horrible. like... worst service in the world. the sushi here is actually quite good, and i love the creativity of all the different fusion rolls they've thrown together, but the service actually deters me from ever coming back by choice... it's that bad. the atmosphere is supposed to be funky, edgy, and cool... and i guess it kiiiinda is... but it's more dingy and dark in my opinion. and seriously... the service sucks. read more

Food is on par but the service is HORRIBLE. The waitresses seem a little airy and we got the airy waitress. She took forever to take out order then it took forever to come to our table. She kept taking out plates and food away even though we WERE NOT DONE OUR FOOD. Then she told us to hurry up because there's a line up and then gave us our bill. She rudely told me they only took debit or cash (or maybe it was just credit card) but anyways it was snooty and rude- totally and unnecessary. So I was going to tip with the cash that I had and paid with my card when she rudely said 'I NOTICED YOU DIDNT TIP ME WERE YOU UNHAPPY WITH THE SERVICE' (in her little ditzy valley girl voice). I then told her that I had the cash in my hand, and was going to give it. She didn't get her tip, she was rude the whole time and I was totally disappointed. HORRIBLE SERVICE. HORRIBLE. WILL NOT COME BACK THERE EVER. read more

The Eatery has won a special place in my heart and my stomach. I live a few blocks from this happenin joint and I frequent it as often as I crave sushi (almost once a week). I haven't experienced any poor service and the food is always drool worthy. My favourite feature about this place (besides the food and drinks) is the decor. The huge Aquaman hanging from the ceiling was the first thing to catch my eye as soon as I walked in. I still look at every page of the menu even after I know what I want to order (its has a lot of neat little pictures and the front looks like a comic book cover). I get the California salad every time, crab meat + avocado + a bunch of other veggies = YUM! Its a little difficult to eat with chopsticks, but I'm a trooper and now I'm gettin the hang of it. The miss piggy roll is my favourite (you can never go wrong with bacon.....unless you're vegan then I guess you can, sorry) If you're not in the mood for sushi then there are a lot of other options on the menu. My final calculation : good drinks + fun atmosphere + creative food and decor + friendly service = five star experience for me =:D read more

A menu like I've never seen before, had a bunch of crazy roles i've never heard of. im a very picky eater so i didn't appeal to much on the menu, i thought some of the combinations were strange and at the time i jst wasn't craving sushi lol plus im more into traditional sushi nothing crazy. Restaurant feels a bit crowded but the atmosphere was nothing like any other sushi restaurant ive eaten at before. very hip and unique. the waitress was chill af and took a shot with us LOL. read more

sushi snobs beware... don't expect fresh and authentic sushi items at all. DO expect odd, funky, unconventional roll combo creations!! don't expect cute lil' asian women to smile and nod at your order. DO expect an all-white staff (under-staffed if you ask me) running around who doesn't smile much and doesn't look very happy with working there. don't expect asian decor with soft ja-pop music floating from the speakers. DO expect wild dis-arrayed decor with loud music being pumped from the speakers by a live DJ spinning the tunes from a corner and a projector screen flashing images of --- things... on a wall. do i think they serve the best sushi? nope. do i think they serve REAL sushi? nope. would i come back here? yep. why? well...they have an obscene sushi roll selection...and it is fun just picking a whole bunch and sharing it with a big group. (so definitely a place to go to with a big party) me and 5 other girlfriends were here for a bday...between us, we had 21 rolls. (yes..count em!) a few faves: the beautiful roll....there were chopped scallop, cream cheese...smoked salmon... bob marley roll.... mango, ...uhm, what else was in here... i can't remember..lol the volvano...deep fried roll..with a fountain of spicy crab meat...this one was so good! tigers tail ...a variation of a dynamite roll panama roll...i think this was a deep fried banana roll of some sort .. honestly, i can't remember what was in all of the rolls...but they were all very good. can't say much for the service...all the times ive been here the service is not good at all. its super slow and the servers are never friendly. it is ALWAYS busy....the lineup to get in is horrific!! make sure you make reservations!! to make this place memorable, make sure you are with a group of good friends... THAT makes all the difference i tell ya. =) read more

After much research my boyfriend and I thought this place would be a fun spot for his birthday dinner while we were visiting Vancouver. I wasn't overly impressed and would not go back when I visit again. The hostess was abrupt and a little rude. The menu was a lot to take in if you've never been so for that reason it was good that the waitress took FOREVER to come to our table, but it would of been nice to have had some drinks. The music was so loud we had to scream at each other over the tiny table we were wedged into. If you were a block down the road you would think there was a club you were coming up on. The place seemed more like a frat or sorority house. Surprisingly our food came out fairly quick, but we still had not gotten the 2 beers we ordered, the waitress said the bar was backed up. I didn't really understand how our food beat our 2 beers, which made me wonder if she just forgot or if the sushi rolls were pre made. 3 of 4 rolls we ordered had very little fish actually in them, one of them that contained eel was almost non existent. I would say the rolls were good, not great, not awful. The miss piggy and the sweetheart were the better 2 we got. We also got an order of tuna sashimi, which I thought was pretty good. We never saw our waitress again until we paid. From the time we got done eating it took another 20 minutes for her to show up and get us paid out. However, our waitress was really sweet during out limited interactions. I get what they are trying to do with the funky food and decor, but it just wasn't a very enjoyable experience with the tight quarters, loud music and mediocre food. read more

Probably the most unique place I've been to as far as looks. The food is delicious. The music is great. Just an over all great vibe here. Caution: enter at your own risk read more

The 'sushi' is nice. It tastes good and the setting is original. It's not the cleanest place. The servers range from extremely helpful, funny and very polite to the rudest i've seen in Vancouver so far. I saw one run behind two university students and asked them why they didn't tip more then they did which is just a very weird behavior. I know they gotta tip the kitchen and all but a tip is a tip. Deal with it hehe). So yeah. Go there if you're below like 35 because otherwise you might really dislike it due to reasons above. read more

oh yay-uh, they put the funky in sushi all right. some creative anime-loving rebel with a sense of humor musta created this joint. part paper-mache museum, part hipster lounge, part sushi place all in one trendy lil eatery..called. um. the eatery. i liked the fun sushi roll names, the dripping candles in bottles, the artwork...they're trying really really hard to be the different type of sushi place, and we know it, but we don't care. knock a couple of stars off for the sometimes TOO creative almost to the point of not good rolls..had one that had banana foster around the california roll..sounded interesting, but the fusion, was just not happening for me. the other rolls were also nothing that knocked my socks off. i'd say mainly come here for the kicks, for the fun, for the ambiance. but if you're a sushi snob, eat beforehand and just get a beer when you're here. read more

Great food Great decor This restaurant was FREEZING cold! A few customers like myself never took their coats off. Service was OK at best. Our server was always walking away from us while taking our order. Food was amazing, menu was super cool!! read more

So this is a bad place to go on a date, but a fun place to go with a bunch of friends. My first time here I went with friends, and second on a date both on Friday's when they have a dj. BTW That guy looks like he hasn't had a shower in like a month, and he couldn't mix two cans of white paint AND OF COURSE HES THE KIND OF GUY WHO WOULD PLAY THE POSTAL SERVICE. yeesh. Really tho I like that Charlie Tuna roll and the avocado tempura app. Wow. Nuts. But man it's like I time traveled and I am at a Destiny rave in Toronto circa 1998. Yeeesh. DO NOT GO HERE ON MUSHROOMS. read more

I have just moved to Vancouver from Tacoma, Washington to study at UBC as a first year. 17 girls from my dorm floor (Kwak 6 woohoo), including our RA who headed the whole event, went to the Eatery for dinner on Wednesday, leaving campus around 6:30 so we got to the location at prime dinner time. It was PACKED and all of us couldn't help but to stare at the people's food who were eating outside. This place is really good for big groups. 17 of us, unannounced at prime dinner time? We got seated in 5 minutes! The waitress was very sweet and was able to make everyone have their own ticket with ease. One note on service though: some items came late, but that was because the place was packed. My sushi didn't come till everyone else was done and eating dessert, but it wasn't the waitress' fault. It came straight away after I flagged her and she was very apologetic. I didn't mind the wait at all and the sushi was soooooo worth it. I'll explain the exterior and interior a bit. From the outside, you can tell it'll be a total party. Neon signs saying "Funky Sushi" and an Atomic Boy logo? Totally my type of place. Inside, it is dim, lit by candles with some crazy ass decor -- the good kind. There are black lights, paper mache monsters hanging everywhere, Atomic Boy references, and a giant octopus in neon colors that goes from the bar to the main floor through a wall. Really cool and club/rave like. They played a mix of music: Siouxsie and the Banshees remixes, 80s dark and new wave, dubstep... very eclectic. To get a sense of their humor, they sell shirts that say "Miso Horny" with character like Hello Kitty, Hello Kitty in KISS makeup, Batz Maru, and others. I really wanted one. If I remember right, they run about $25 CAD. The menu is frickin' huge!!! There is donburi, sizzling hot plates, funky sushi (raw fish and vegetarian), sushi 101 (basic sushi), appetizers, and a big drink section. One of my floormates and I shared the Fat Elvis appetizer, which is tempura avocado with mayo, a thick sweet soy sauce, and thin onion shavings on top. We both went nuts over it and my floormate, in order to make table space, wolfed the rest of the topping down... THE TOPPINGS and she is a skinny little thing!! I ordered a Shirley Temple that was one I never tasted before: orange/tropical fruit juice and cherry mix. It was good, but definitely a surprise as I am used to the seven up and cherry syrup mix. For dinner, I got the Erotica Roll (funky sushi) and the Chopped Scallop (sushi 101). They both had mayo and flying fish roe and were soooooooo delicious. One girl had the Las Vegas roll and another had the Tex Mex and at it like it was going out of style. Another girl who I was sitting with had the seafood okonomiyaki, which was to die for. For those who are squimish about mayo: they put the okonomiyaki sauce and mayo in separate bowls. I went into a total food coma, other wise I would've tried to cop some of the other girls dessert. Many got the Mars Attacks (deep fried mars bar, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream) which was described as tasting like a warm, gooey brownie. Others got the Pears (hazel nut gelato and chocolate ganache). Many ordered things to go or purposely didn't eat all their food so they could have left overs. Needless to say, every girl at that table was in a food coma on the bus ride back to campus. Before 12% tax and a service charge, my total was $20.15 -- not too bad for ass kicking sushi. In the end though, my total rounded up to about $26. I am definitely coming back. Can't wait till I'm 19 so I can review the bar! read more

This is gross food served in darkness to cover the bad quality and presentation. The sushi is pretty bad not even the trendy sounding names provided one tasty bite. The avacado was raw in some, the salmon was bland and flavors were non existent overall, we tried about 10 rolls, curry and donburri all bad, overcooked and soggy . It was also dirty and service is hurried and disorganized. Music is loud so no conversation can be had. I guess if you want to sit in neon ceilings and get some pic opportunities and don't care what you eat it's OK. So dissatisfied, disappointed and wasteful since we couldn't have at it. Also not good for kids and my kid loves sushi! read more

A whole page in the menu dedicated to my vegetarian sushi needs and a deep fried mars bar for dessert. Almost perfect.

roll du soleil - oh how i love thee a menu with 20 pages! 14 'funky' veggie rolls 9 'sushi 101' veggie rolls this is definitely not your quick and cheap everyday sushi experience. come here with time (to wait and decide), money (for the good stuff including drinky drinks), people (for the fun) and an empty stomache (that wants to be filled up with deliciousness). not too empty tho or you might starve while waiting for a table (even with a reservation) read more

Hmmm - I knew not to expect quality sushi - especially considering the angle this place is shooting for and the funky Astro Boy inspired decored and lame 'Miso Horny' jokes. But still... We got the Captain Crunch (tempura California roll with unagi mayo) and Ichi Roll (tempura-style salmon, avocado & cream cheese), which were $5 - $6 each. However, unlike most sushi, I didn't feel like ordering anymore. The Ichi Roll wasn't bad, but the Captain Crunch was pretty soggy. Where's the motherfucking 'Crunch'?!? It was pretty cheap and I wasn't full - I just didn't want anymore. This is coming from a man that would eat ANYTHING when he's drinking (and yes, we just did refer to Johnson in the third person). Service was pretty damned slow as well - and $4.75 a sleeve isn't that great of a Monday night special. I dunno - not all that cheap, not all that good - just kinda bleh. Shame - I wanted to like this place. UBC can keep The Eatery - SFU has Sushi Town. That's one plus point of going to a 'soft' university. read more

My friends and I litterally decided to drive all the way up from Seattle to Vancouver at 5pm.. just to go to The Eatery for dinner and make it back home to Seattle by 12am. Enough said.This place was awesomeeee for its funky and artistic but cluttered decor. Half the menu is drinks so it's a great place for drinkers and it's a great place for sushi lovers because the selection is huge. The sushi was also very satisfying... not that you couldn't find sushi like this in Washington, but we just had to go to the Eatery because of great reviews we heard from friends. It was well worth the gas guzzled in my friend's mazda6. 4 stars for this wonderful gimmicky restaurant! read more

have heard raving reviews about The Eatery and many great food experiences... called to make a birthday reservation... girl on phone answered "Eatery"... insisted a weeknight didnt need reservations on arrival was super packed busy on a weeknight.. a few people in the quieter right lounge side which i requested.... we were rudely ignored and escorted to the busy restaurant side, asked again about lounge and was told it was closed... I would be OK with this but it was already half full anyhow, plus I attempted reservations which clearly is pointless here Hostess/girl who seated us was the WORST SERVICE i have ever experienced in Vancouver..so sad to say it was here. Our server was very young and attentive to make up for the lady barking at us upon arrival ( not nice considering I was treating a Birthday guest and expecting to pay a hefty bill) Prices were very reasonable and food was good too ORDERED: Marinated tuna Pepperjack Sesame Chicken Gyoza Dragon Roll Volcano Roll Jalapeno Popper Italian Stallion Malaysian Retreat would give the food 7.5/10 good for a fusion sushi place but overrated and SUPER LOUD read more

I used to live 2 blocks away from the Eatery and went every week. Good food, good drinks (and not just sake and lager beer as in most sushi joints - actual drinks!), large variety of sushi combos to please every adventurous palate. This the good. The bad - service is slow at times, music is bad 80s rock and bad 80s dance, too dark inside. However, on a sunny Sunday lunch, if go there, sit on the patio, order a mojito - you will experience simple perfection! Lunch time is slow there so it will allow you to experience the best of the Eatery. read more

Very cool place in Kits. Great Veggie options and meat eaters alike. Cool interior with black lights and interesting vibe. Prices are mid-ranged but still very reasonable. Def suggest the panama for veggie rolls. Wait times can be a little long depending. Went twice both was a slightly longer than usual order to wait time. Drink prices could be a tad bit cheaper. read more

Absolute disaster last night. We had made a large reservation two days prior for last night for 7:30. And... the tables were never reserved. When we arrived, their restaurant was full, leaving a giant group of people waiting outside in the cold, with marijuana smokers right around the corner. Glad it wasn't raining (I mean... its Vancouver, so it rains more than half the time), but we would have been even angrier if it was. Then at just past 8, someone comes out and says that only TWENTY of us can be let in, with an attitude suggesting that they were doing us a favor. We asked to talk to their manager. Nope, manager "not available". Really now. We all decided to leave the Eatery after that fiasco. Have never gone to the Eatery, never will after this. This is one of those restaurants where you don't even need to taste their food to know its not going to be a good experience. There are plenty of Japanese restaurants in Vancouver to go to. read more

This place has gone downhill. 1.) Seriously - it's gotten so gross. It's dirty, (sushi in its preparation and environment should be in a clean restaurant... that's just my opinion... but I hazard most of you reading this might care about that small detail). dirty and grungy, sludgy stuffed animals everywhere. Layer of dust on shelves, toys, lamps... wax caked all over the table. 2.) $$$ When did this happen? Sushi should NOT be this expensive, especially from The Eatery. I get that you have 'funky' and 'cool' rolls - come on. Portions were small, slices of sashimi were 2 cm thick. $6.50 for 4 slices? That's not cool, guys. 3.) Service. So slow. Disinterested. Waited 20 minutes to have a server take our order. She spent more time chatting it up with her friends that were seated next to us instead of paying attention to serving the rest of the tables. I was suggesting that we leave for another restaurant bc we were in a hurry, I think she may have heard, clued in and finally came. With both palms on our table, face to face with us, leaned in and barked, "So what can I get you. " Full boobs right in my face. Ugh. When it came time to pay, I asked for our bill. That took 10 minutes. showed her my card and she came back with the machine an additional 10 minutes later. I couldn't tell if it was her way of punishing us for wanting to leave in the first place... but it was super painful. I loved this place 10 years ago. Now it sucks. Bye. read more

A university student hangout with a mix of clientele none-the-less because it's fun. They have the most extensive sushi menu & creative rolls I've seen (my favourite? "Viva Las Vegas!"). It's a cab trip away from downtown, which is the only reason I'm not a semi-permanent resident! read more

My favorite sushi place!!! In Kitsilano area. Funky interior designs. It's not a typical Japanese place. I think it's more western style. I just like that they have tons of choices. I can probably eat here everyday and have one dish each day from their menu and I won't get tired of it. My favorite is Miss Piggy Roll. I'm pretty sure they have the "create your own sushi" here. They have pretty good desserts as well. I won't recommend this place for kids though. It will be too loud and the ambiance definitely not for kids. Most people say they have slow service, because they are always busy. I never had an issue with their service. My order always comes right away. I've been here maybe 5 -7 times already. I guess I just got lucky. I suggest coming early evening to avoid waiting for too long. read more

Poor takeout food. Some of the worst okonomiyaki I've ever had. I'd cut them some slack by saying it's a student-friendly place but it's too expensive for that. The floor was sticky and the place was way too loud. They've been around forever but I'm not sure why. read more

Went here for a friend's birthday, paid for what I was told, all you can eat at the time. However they stop giving us food pretty much when they decided to. Most of us didn't eat and had to go somewhere else for food after. The food that they did give us were in super small portions, even smaller portions than what is on their normal menu. On top of that the alcoholic drinks were watered down. read more

Loved the atmosphere and peculiar names on the menu. The Eatery is a perfect place to check out with friends when craving for fun sushi dishes. The price overall was very reasonable, around $15-25 per person for a decent meal. A first date at The Eatery wouldn't be such a bad idea, at least the erotic cocktail names could be a great conversation starter :) read more

The Eatery - Ring of Fire, enough for 3 - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

The food was ok, thick fusion stuff. The servers were nice. It smelled horrible, like bleach and spilled alcohol and wiped mayonnaise tables, I felt nauseous. The music was too loud. There were large stuffed animals in the bathroom, it seemed like they would be mouldy, dusty and full of germs. All of the clutter and toys and masks were unappetizing. It just felt like they had collected dirt and dust and grease. Overall, it felt unhygienic and unappetizing for a restaurant atmosphere. The prices were also too high, and I felt like including low-res images from 'The Shining' all over the sushi menu was a bad and awkward choice. read more

Where to begin with my horrendous experience at The Eatery?! I don't even know. The disappointment and irritation I felt after leaving this establishment left a nasty taste in my mouth and I will NOT be going back again. No way. I REFUSE! But alas let me tell the story... So, it was a co-workers going away shindig and we all wanted to try something different, so he arranged for our party of 15 to go to the eatery. He called and arranged a reservation a week in advance, even going as far as talking specially with the manager; so we would all be able to sit and enjoy our celebration together. We were told that would be no problem and so our reservation was set for 8pm. So 8pm, the day of, and most if not all of us are outside the eatery to go inside. Co-worker goes up to let them know our party is here and is told that they are not ready for us that they have people in our seating. OK... that`s fine we can wait a little bit. So we all mill about, chat and catch up. 30 minutes go by. co-worker approaches the staff again, "oh we are just getting the tables ready for your party". OOOOK... continue to stand around for ANOTHER 30 mins. Finally we are approached to be seated....after an hour of waiting for our reservation.... What was even the point. Anyways, so we all finally sit down in the tables and the person seating us lets us know someone will be over shortly to take our drink orders. so we start talking. Oh wait! the music is so loud I cant even hear the guy beside me unless he yells in my ear. So we are all yelling at each other just to try and have a conversation. 15 minutes roll by.... No drinks...Not even water! Finally manage to flag down one of our waitresses to inquire about our drinks and maybe some water. She takes our drink order... with little to no friendliness. ANOTHER 15 minutes pass... NO DRINKS! Get the attention of the waitress as she is flirting with the table of young men in the corner. ( there are only 4 tables besides ours that are full). She lets me know that they are on their way in some catty attitude as if how dare I ask such a thing. Did I mention that we are automatically being charged a 15% tip?! for a service charge... I REPEAT, SERVICE charge. Onto the next, we finally get our drinks and are able to place our food orders (another 10 minutes later I might add). We are drinking and trying to talk to each other. During this time no waitress has come by to offer a drink refill nor to ask if we would like more water ect. a few of my coworkers tried multiple times to get our waitress' attention in order to get refills to no avail. Our food takes another 35-40 minutes to get to us, with many things missing. The guy beside me didnt get any of his food until I had pretty much finished all of mine. He ended up cancelling half his order. Asked for our bills and waiting an additional 15mins to recieve those. So, after over 2 hours past our reservation time we managed to get: 2 drinks (some only 1), mediocre food that was over priced (if we even got all of our meal...some of us didnt), an automatic tip charge FOR HORRIBLE SERVICE, and a splitting headache from really loud music. Needless to say I will not be going back to the eatery. EVER. Oh yes, I and a few others felt nauseated and sick after. read more

Rude waitresses, and sat at my table for 30 min with no one taking my order! Have eaten there before... It's really hit and miss.. The curry was so salty we had to give it back, they over-douse the sushi with mayonnaise, but some rolls are ok, although they're overpriced. Don't expect to carry on a conversation, they crank up the dance music. Better sushi in the area: Hitoe, Yuji's. I should also add that their tagline is "Miso horny". Racial stereotyping much? But then it's not exactly fine dining clientele they're going for. read more

The Eatery is great place for sushi when you're with friends and family. If your favourite type of sushi is the California roll or you're not a big fan of raw fish type of sushi, this is the place to go. They have an amazing selection of very interesting and tasty sushi creations. My favourite is Captain crunch. If you're visiting Vancouver for the first time, this is a must visit if you like sushi! read more

The service was rude and the food came late, they forgot about one dish and they brought one wrong dish. The food was ok

the buzz around the eatery far exceeds its quality, i think. loud party atmosphere with a dj spinning bumpin' mixes. monsters hanging from the ceiling! memorabilia and kitch galore! loved soaking it all up at a bit of a distance from their outside patio. but the sushi wasn't all that great, and the service dragged. our server was obviously barely hanging on for dear life. waited an eternity for everything, and then the appetizer came out at the end of the meal. sushi was just okay. liked the viva las vegas roll the best; the smoked salmon on top of the beautiful roll was kinda nasty, and the bob marley was scant on everything, especially the fish. i would go back, but more for the experience than the food. and certainly not for the service. read more

Fantastic. Always start with the fat Elvis. Then the special rolls. Then repeat!

Love this place! Great food and drink specials. Some of the best sushi i've had. Maybe because it was deep fried, but everything is better that way read more

Brilliantly creative sushi. Love the food here. Fun atmosphere and really great servers. Mojitos are good too!
