IKA MARUYAKI 13 Grilled Squid
Kathy P.

Everything was delicious and fresh. Excellent and quick service. There are a few spots of complimentary parking downstairs. There is only one spot for large groups. We celebrated a birthday and received a scoop of ice cream, candle on top and a birthday song sung by our waiter.

Spicy Tuna Roll, Assorted Tempura
Bowie T.

Solid place for Korean-style Japanese food, Tom Sushi-esque. Came in for two at seven o'clock with no reservations and seated at the bar right away. They're on Open Table for resos btw. The place was packed on a Saturday night. Ordered: Assorted tempura, spicy tuna roll, Alaska roll and a special vegetable roll. Pros: - attentive service and food came out promptly - street parking is free on the residential streets north of broadway or right across from the hospital on oak street after six pm - vibes are cute and seating is spacious - solid food and well-priced

Pressed salmon sushi
Cristen F.

I really enjoyed my experience here. I ubered so I cannot say how parking is but currently the construction on the street makes it look like a mess. Once you enter it's nice though. I came here based on TikToks as I am not from Vancouver/Canada. The sushi was delicious. Everyone around us also looked really pleased with their meals. We weren't super hungry but ordered a couple of items. The meal is served with hot tea (unsweetened if that matters) which is nice for cold Vancouver. Maybe it was barley tea, but I can't be sure. We ordered the tuna tataki which was delicioussssss. The salad underneath was a little soaked in sauce/dressing but it was so good that I didn't mind. The fish was fresh and complimented well by the sauce and sesame seeds. I got the pressed salmon sushi. (Salmon jalapeno something). I also really like that. The shrimp inside could've been a tiny bit more crispy but other than that it was perfect. I would've ordered it twice if I was hungrier. My boyfriend go the volcano roll. He said it was ok but the cream cheese overwhelmed the fish flavor. I tasted the roll and liked the cream cheese addition. The fish was fresh and the sauce was good. It is a saucy roll though. Be warned if you don't like cream cheese or sauce heavy rolls. We finished with the chopped scallop roll. It might have been my favorite thing. Also it was only $7 for 8 pieces. It was delicious. Still saucy but I loved it. I would have 3 of them LOL. We were celebrating our anniversary so they brought us vanilla ice cream with matcha powder on top and a candle. It was really nice and delicious (especially for such a simple combination). The service was also great. The servers were attentive and also very nice.

Tozen Sushi Bar was a place I'd been recommended several times and it did not disappoint! It was definitely very busy on a Friday night so I was glad I booked ahead. The ambiance was lively and I enjoyed the lighting in the restaurant. I did find it a little bit hard to flag someone down to order since it was quite loud. My friend and I shared the mentaiko udon, a few types of sashimi and we each tried a cocktail. The mentaiko udon was flavourful and rich, and the mushrooms really tied it together (this is definitely on the better end of mentaiko udons I've tried!) The sashimi quality was also great and I particularly enjoyed the tuna While the matcha sour was definitely up my alley in terms of presentation, I found it a bit strong on the vodka taste and prefer something a bit sweeter. Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and would probably come back if looking for a vibey Japanese spot I felt that the quality of everything I tried did match its pricepoint

Just some updates for Tozen Sushi Bar on 967 West Broadway Vancouver Food:(5/5) No doubt Service :(4/5)

Stephanie M.

If I could I would give this place a 3.5 based on the food and service I received. The decor is very chic and cool but still comfortable. We got some nigiris and the salmon jalapeno oshi. The best thing was the salmon jalapeno sushi. The nigiri is not where Tozen shines. The fish didn't taste the best. The best part was the fried shrimp head which isn't surprising considering they are known for their fried foods. Overall service was super nice and professional. Based on the nigiri, I didn't love it. But based on the oshi sushi only it was good. If you visit, only get their special rolls and oshis

Hojiacha opera cake
Min A.

Amazing sushi restaurant which is now one of my favorites. We couldn't get a reservation but they had space for walk in. We were celebrating a birthday so we ordered the house warm sake with gomae to start then ordered the Salmon jalapeño Aburi hako which is pressed salmon oishi w/ fried prawn inside, it was delicious. I had ordered it once before as take away but it tasted better at the restaurant. We also ordered red dainamaito fried prawn, avocado, cucumber w/ soy paper and spicy tuna on top..Also delicious as love rolls with soy paper. Then we ordered Hojicha Opera Cake for dessert which had black sesame, need I say more? A fabulous meal as definitely plan to go back frequently to try more items from their menu, the restaurant is very pretty also. Don't let the construction on West Broadway deter you as it's worth checking this out, it's a very popular restaurant as was packed on a weeknight.

Annie W.

Fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced given the quality. I've been to Tozen many times and have never been disappointed. Highly recommend making reservations as the restaurant can be very busy during dinner time!

Just had the most amazing early birthday dinner at Tozen Sushi Bar! The modern decor created a beautiful experience. The food? Absolutely outstanding! We indulged in: Ruby Spritz Mocktail (refreshing!) Warm & comforting Miso Soup Fresh Gomae Crispy Chicken Karaage Light & airy Prawn Tempura Explosive Tuna Bomb Delicious Maki Rolls (Salmon, Tuna, Tamago, Avocado) Flavorful Beef Yakiudon Sweet & savory Chicken Teriyaki with a bowl of rice Every dish was a delight! Highly recommend Tozen for any occasion. The staff is so attentive, I noticed every detail is thoughtful and mindful. Can't wait to go back!

Tozen Sushi Bar is a casual yet pretty fancy looking sushi restaurant in Fairview. Had a casual catch up with friends during weekdays and place was decently full. Tldr; it's a pretty nice place for good quality sushi that's still relatively affordable, with good options for both traditional and more fusion take on sushi. Beef Yaki Udon ($16) 5/10 A pretty standard soy based with beef, mushrooms, and onion. I did note that give pretty nice amount of topping but nothing memorable taste-wise. Negi Kanpa Hama ($24) 6.5/10 Negi hamachi and kanpachi, kani stick, avocado, and cucumber. Very light, bright taste. Good quality of fishes but for hamachi I think I like them better in nigiri. The Volcano ($23) 7/10 Spicy tuna, cream cheese, cucumber, and extra spicy tuna on the top. An unexpected favourite given how I don't usually enjoy cream cheese in my sushi, however they surprisingly added enough hot sauce to for the roll to feel 'spicy'.

Beautiful presented and delicious Japanese food which been made by skilled cooks , u can see them preparing orders at the bar area . The restaurant have modern design with comfortable seating . Also can recommend their hamachi crudo , it's melting in the mouth . Stuff is polite and well mannered . Keep coming by for lunch when in the area and recommending :)

Febelyn S.

Everything we ordered felt thoughtfully prepared, from the presentation to the balance of flavors. The sushi was fresh and clean tasting, with well seasoned rice that did not overpower the fish. The aburi pieces were a highlight for me. Lightly torched, creamy, and just the right amount of richness, especially with a bit of heat from the jalapeño. The rolls were also well done, fresh fish, good texture, and nicely balanced without being overly heavy. We also tried a few hot dishes and sides, which added variety to the meal and paired really well with the sushi. The cocktails were smooth and refreshing, a nice complement to the food. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed, making it easy to enjoy a longer meal without feeling rushed. Overall, Tozen is a great spot for quality sushi, good drinks, and a laid back dining experience

Andrea M.

Ambiance and environment was very warm and intimate. Staff were friendly and asked many times if we wanted a tea refill. Food was delicious and plated beautifully. Would come back again and recommend!

Not just for great sushi, but really affordable prices as well. Yes, the wait for a table can get long. We waited about 45 minutes, and there's no area to wait except outside or go take a walk since they will text you when your table is ready. I also appreciate seeing where my place in line is through Yelp! First, a shoutout to the wonderful service here. Everywhere I go in Vancouver the service is great, but the server here was so friendly, helpful and efficient. The ambiance is really nice here and I love the place settings! We had a lot, so here is my breakdown: Spicy Agedashi Tofu - lightly fried tofu in a sauce that reminded me of gochuchang sauce. 7/10 Gyoza - crispy fried with a pork/veggie filling. 6/10 Karaage chicken - on the bone, but delicious nonetheless. Served with a mayo sauce. 7/10 Tuna Bomb - 10/10 this came out last because it takes longer to make. This is an absolute must-do. Crispy rice patties with a spicy tuna spread that you just place on the rice. Salmon jalapeno aburi hako - 10/10 I have been excited about this since I heard about it. The seared salmon on top of rice with a shrimp tempura running through the middle. The salmon and sauce on top melt in your mouth. Red Dynamite Roll - 9/10 this was my brother's favorite. I wanted it to be a bit spicier, but that said it's still so amazing. Mango Flower Roll - 9/10 if you like mango then you will love this. This also just melts in your mouth and that mango is just so fresh. California roll - 8/10 as great as a California roll can be! No complaints here! Rainbow Roll - I didn't get to try it, but my niece gave it a 10/10! I will definitely be coming back here again.

My friend wanted to try this place, so we decided to give it a try. We arrived around 5:45pm, and…read morewere told there would be about a 90 min wait and they would contact us when our table is ready. It ended up being closer to 60 min. The place is not big. I counted maybe 36 seats. The interior is nice but generic enough to be just about any type of restaurant. The menu accessed via QR code. I ended up trying the following: - Assorted Tempura: Good. Light batter, but slightly overbrowned. - Miso Black Cod: Good. More elaborate presentation than most, but very small piece. - Salmon Belly Sashimi: Very good. Fresh and delicious. - Tom Special Roll Tray: Very good. A great way to sample all the different roll, all which are very good. I thought it was reasonably priced and could adequately feed 4 people. Service was very good. There are a LOT of staff, so we were constantly being checked on to make sure we were happy and got anything we needed. Overall a good meal. It doesn't classify as the best sushi in Vancouver, but I can see the quality-value ratio might be the best in the city. All the food was quite good and certainly not overpriced. I imagine the high staff count was due to the overwhelming amount of takeout orders. I would return.

Minami is the sister restaurant to…read moreMiku and they're the ones who brought the flame-seared style to Vancouver, so they know exactly what they're doing. 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. Easily one of my favourite spots in Yaletown though!

We dropped into Minami for happy hour and were seated immediately…read more We ordered from the happy hour menu for a quick snack before dinner plans: Brussels sprouts were the surprise standout: crisped edges, a nice caramelized finish, and enough seasoning to keep each bite interesting. The oshi sampler (their signature pressed sushi) looked tidy and well-composed, and the textures were clean, though the flavors didn't quite pop the way I'd hoped. 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.

Total 10 guests today. Looks like 4 more guests can be served for the maximum seating. The server came by when the course is served to explain each item. The appetizers have three dishes. The tempura is freshly made and hot. The cooked fish tastes a bit fishy to my likely. The chawanmushi is lukewarm which I wish to be hotter. It then follows by 8 nigiri sushi with brown rice - really like the texture and (small) portion of rice with each nigiri. Fresh ingredients. I asked for low sodium option however the first few nigiri is a bit too salty and I have notified the server so the chef can adjust immediately. I enjoy the Hokkaido uni nigiri the last smoked fish nigiri the most. The fresh crab and salmon roe rice and beef soba noodles at the end have a nice touch of finesse. There are a number of birthday celebrations and they asked for names to acknowledge and celebrate the birthdays. A little musical piano "performance" for the happy birthday song. Matcha green tea is served at the end to wrap up the omakase. Overall an enjoyable experience but not necessarily impressive as a Michelin 1 star restaurant. At this price point it's worth a try however not likely regular visit.
