Very good little sushi place. Be careful as it fills quick. Reservations are suggested.

Favorite traditional sushi place in Richmond and value for dollar showcases it sheds the fancy nameplate for a very subdued and quality driven experience. The assorted sushi set at $38 (2024) showcases local and Japanese imported fish, fresh and well portioned for each piece to be eaten in one bite, non lock-jawing bite.The saba battera is a little different than other restaurants since it showcases much more redness and has a lot more fish flavor. Some may be a little overwhelmed so try if you truly like Saba :), but dive in if you love it.Other standouts are the ankimo and tako wasabi and their uni tasted really good too (not sandy nor bitter).I really enjoy the intimacy in which it feels to dine here. Run by the same couple for years, I hope to experience many more.

Just in my opinion, the food quality is not as great as 4.6. I ordered one house roll and sockeye salmon. Rice on the roll is awful to eat. It was so sticky. I know sockeye salmon is quietly expensive but it is over priced for quality and quantity. Also service, no greeting at all and never ask for more tea or how food is going but want to have tips.

Quite good, but portions on the small side for the price. I believe it’s owned by a couple, with the husband as the chef and the wife waitressing. Since it’s only run by the two of them, it can be a bit difficult to flag the waitress down.

Traditional hole in the wall sushi place in Richmond. This family-run business has been here awhile and have been meaning to try it — and glad I did! Fish is super fresh and everything we tried was delicious. Definitely recommend the sushi combo, oden and hachi cheek. Prices are reasonable but make sure to book ahead because seating is limited inside.

Ordered a sashimi set and it was excellent. The staff were very friendly. I also enjoyed the miso soup and green
Excellent nigiri and a homely feel with this family run restaurant. I used to go all the time with my workout buddies and order out the entire stock of blue fin and suffice to say their food is still top notch over a decade later.

Excellent quality sushi and sashimi. The quality that you'd actually expect when you dine-in in Japan. There's only one server and could be little challenging to get her attention but she was very smooth and efficient. Make sure to make a reservation in advance as they have limited seating. My favourite sushi place in BC!
really good sushi, the rolls had a bit too much rice but the nigiri were smaller in size which was perfect. the rice was fresh and still warm, tempura was also warm which speaks to the quality. prices are higher but not insane, very limited seating so takeout was n option!
