Went to this new location which has alcoholic beverages and 2.5 hour service with one seating at 6 pm.To be honest, I prefer the old location with 10 seats. With one chef and a larger crowd, you can’t really watch the chef prepping and making your nigiri. Also, it’s almost expected that people will chat louder especially after they drink. Food quality is still excellent and this is still my go to for omakase in Vancouver.

Mediocre service, performance, and atmosphere, but really fresh fish. They don't use real wasabi which is very surprising and cheapens the experience you're paying for. Not a filling meal, you can order additional nigiri afterwards, but not sure if i'd say the value is there.

The interior is luxurious, the food is beautiful, and the taste is elegant. Enjoying it with a drink is a blissful experience. If you want to taste authentic sushi, you should definitely go here.

Not the best service because you need to obey his rules as if you're in Japan. But then this is in Canada. The quality of the food was decent for the price but nothing more to that. The portion size requires you to get a donair afterwards unless you subject yourself to additional orders.

I dined at their original location last year and was excited to come back to try their new location, but was very disappointed this time around. The owners no longer enforce the rules on the website to help create a relaxing and enjoyable atomsphere. It was loud and unpleasant. Only 4/17 ppl showed up in time (including us), and the omakase started late as we had to wait for the other customers to arrive. My aori ika (squid) was too chewy to eat and my Anago was served to me with a piece of bone - 2/13 of the dishes were unacceptable. I brought it up with the waitress, to which she told me that the fish is like that. To add, there was a fly in the restaurant. I was very disappointed and would not recommmend anyone to come if they are looking for a quality and enjoyable experience.

Very good quality omakase with a great atmosphere. Family-run by a kind couple from Japan.
The sushi was very high quality and the food prep right in front of you is performance art. No complaints about the food. However, with sixteen or seventeen people and only one chef, the pace of dinner was extremely slow. It was two and a half hours with one piece coming out every 11 minutes. Which is excruciatingly slow. If you come here, don't come hungry or you'll be sorry. Also, for something so pricey, I was surprised that we got paper napkins rather than cloth ones.

The sushi nigiris were just excellent. They also have high quality tuna, the chu-toro and o-toro just melt in your mouth. Chef was quiet but highly skilled, definitely worth a try.

There are 17 people on the table.17 people being served by one chef and his wife. Extremely poor service. Very slow pace.You can imagine one person serving 17 people.This is not a true omakase experience. Chef is just too busy making 13 sushis for 17 people.. in my opinion, the chef is too greedy..
