High quality food with very affordable prices! Will definitely come back! The service was excellent as well. My waitress topped my tea without me asking.

Great atmosphere and engaging staff. The menu offerings are as diverse as they are traditionally executed. Was very impressed with not only the pricing but the quality! Will be returning a lot! Especially when they have Uni in and quails eggs for the Ikura, Tobiko, Kani, and you guessed it the Uni!

First time we went to the resto, staffs and chef at the sushi bar were so nice and welcome customers with smile. Food also beyond our expectation because it’s affordable price but the portion was so big. Today we were in rush and didnt finished our meals. I packed it home and still fresh after that. Will comeback for sure. Hidden gems japanese resto in Vancouver!

Food arrives really quick, and is really yummy! The inside interior space is so lovely and cozy. Just one comment though is that when I ordered food for takeout, the plastic lid was so hard to open that it cracked as I was opening it. But overall, love this place!!

Not sure why this place got a 4.7 before. Chef is from China, fish is cheap quality from China. Not real Japanese sushi.

Nestled away in a central location of the city, this place is a hole-in-the-wall sushi spot and it exceeded expectations. The value for money here is unparalleled. The salmon sashimi was so fresh, and all dishes used quality ingredients. Each fancy roll boasted a unique and tasty flavor profile, with just the right amount of sauce to enhance, not overpower, the taste. The house roll was a true standout, generously portioned and delicious.Without a doubt, I'll be returning here soon, and I'm already considering catering parties with their wide range of offerings. If you're seeking a high value weekday sushi spot that won't break the bank, look no further than this spot!

I would say this place is one of my top 3 favorites for sushi. We ordered a bunch of different dishes and they were all delicious!Their sashimi is great quality and super fresh. I came in for Valentine’s Day with another couple and we will be coming back to this place again because of amazing taste of the sushi and for the service. The staff was very kind! ?

I had the worst experience without even ordering any food. This has got to be anew low.I sat down for approx. 15 minutes without any acknowledgement. I had my hand up for the longest time requesting assistance to order food. The sushi chef saw me wave, no response, the waiter saw me wave, does not acknowledge, even the kitchen chef saw me and still no help.No one came over to at least let me know that they will be helping me shortly.The waitress kept taking on customers that came after me for ordering take out. I sat there waiting looking like an idiot with no help or response.At that point, I was so pissed that I got up and left. If I sat in there any longer, I might have yelled and cursed at them all.If all you want is take out orders, don't do dine in. No customer service at all. Will never go back. I will not pay money in exchange for this kind of customer service.

We ordered takeout once from this Japanese restaurant when they first started the business. The food was okay. It was not impressive.After months, we finally went to the restaurant and had dinner in person. We arrived around 6:30pm on a weeknight. We got a table right away. Then more customers started to come. They only got one server to serve all tables. Even the chef had to come out and took orders and took care of the customers. And then he quickly rushed back to the kitchen and made sushi.We ordered the food once we were seated because we knew if we ordered the food late, we might have to wait for a long time. It was great to see the restaurant got good businesses especially both dine in and takeout orders.Why I gave three stars overall is because the food quality was not great. When I went to real Japanese restaurants in town, all the dishes including simple ones like house rolls or different big and small ones were refined. The front and end of the sushi rolls would be finely cut and sliced perfectly. The sushi rolls here were cut and ingredients inside were very loose. The imitation crab was not the good ones that I used to eat at other restaurants. The size of each piece of sushi or each dish was very generous, but eating great sushi is not only about the portion but it was about the fineness, presentation, and quality of the food. The Alaska roll that I ordered had salmon in it. But the part of salmon included the chewy “skin” which was not the good part of the fish.The pricing is reasonable and affordable, so I can understand a lot of customers would order from here. The customer service was okay. I would prefer some of the good authentic Japanese restaurants in Vancouver over this one.Parking: You can park along Victoria Drive or in the residential neighbourhood. All free parking.
