“This was my final Japanese restaurant I had yet to try in Vernon.After multiple visits to Japan and annual trips to Asia, it is great to see Vernon have a large number of Asian restaurants.J-Don has been here for a long time. Donburi and Udon dishes are most commonly ordered here. It's definitely their specialties.I really like how the restaurant is decorated and how bright it is.They give you a tray for your bowl, a cup of water, and chopsticks.The Veggie Don came to $15.33 after tax. It tasted pretty good.Staff is extremely friendly.I recommend this place and shall return!Current Vernon Japanese restaurant rankings:1) Kawakubo2) Jade's Asian Kitchen (Fantastic specialty rolls)3) OHKim (Great yakisoba and tempura)4) Wasabi (Big menu)5) Mahoroba (Great yakisoba)6) Raku (Great tempura)7) J-Don (Great decorations and great donburi bowls)8) Sakura (Mini grocery)9) Bento Sushi (Convenient boxes in the mall)10) Edo Japan (Fast food)11) Sushi Kawa (The only one I don't like in Vernon)“
“I went to this restaurant for the first time the other week with some friends.We were met with friendly greetings, prompt service, and smiles all around!The food was absolutely delicious, so much so that I ordered some the next day so I could enjoy it again at work!My friends and I enjoyed our time at OHKIM Sushi, and we will definitely be back!“
“Local Family owned sushi place that has the best sushi and has been here for over 10 years now. I haven’t been going here as much in the last couple years due to me moving around but every time I come here it’s always good. It’s owned by a husband and wife and they are just great people. My favourite has always been the crunchy bqq salmon roll. Definitely recommend“
“Rave to, Sushi KaWa Sushi KaWa is a culinary gem drowning in a saturated landscape of fast food pop-ups that litter the humble streets of Vernon B.C. When you first walk through the doors, you are greeted by darkened wood accents, and sleek, elegant decor. The aroma playfully dancing throughout the establishment is subtle, and not overbearing or obnoxious. An eye catching cherry blossom tree stands graciously in the centre of the room. It doesn't appear out of place, or tacky — it's perfect. The staff are attentive, convivial and informative. It's a comforting environment to be within, this makes the process of settling in to visually feast on the menu a much more relaxed and enjoyable experience. The food; in my near forty years of life, I have consumed many plates of sushi and sushi imitations, (even gas station sushi — I'm not proud of it, but it happened...) Sushi KaWa is hands down one of THE best, if not THE best sushi places in Western Canada! I know, I know... sounds crazy, right? At least hear me out; Sushi KaWa is not egregiously overpriced. They're not skimpy on portions, and they don't value flare and theatrics over dining and satisfaction. There are no trendy queues that stretch around the block, it's just good old fashioned good eats! This place, 10/10. I stand by that. It's perfect for a first date, and a returning one. And in my case, it was perfect for a special anniversary date. Try the Volcano Roll — you won't regret it.“
“Really nice service and delicious food! I would recommend to spin the rolls tighter to prevent rice in rolls from falling apart. But that it just knit picking. We got our order really quickly less than in 20 minutes. We ordered Lunch Bento Box, NY rolls, Dynamite rolls and white wine. It was right enough for two persons and we left the restaurant absolutely happy!“
“I usually have the amazing Spicy Garlic Ramen when I visit Raku. Tonight I decided on something new to me & ordered the Raku Vermicelli with chicken & sukiyaki beef. Wow! A flavour explosion. I was impressed, I am looking forward to trying more dishes. My husband had the Asst Tempura, Dynamite Roll & Fire Roll, all very fresh & tasty. We also ordered 2 bottled beers that came with frosted glasses. This place is great, does not disappoint. Server was polite & helpful! Good food, done right, value for my dollar as portion sizes are generous.Thank you Raku!“
“my sister and I stopped in for a quick meal as we were passing through Vernon on our way to Oyama. A Google search informed us that Jade Asian Kitchen was the "best Chinese food in Vernon," so we decided to give it a try. We each ordered a single combo meal but my sister also wanted deep fried wantons and we both had a craving for dry garlic ribs. A shockingly short time after ordering, our food started to arrive. The super nice waitress, whose name I didn't get, brought out combo plates out first and we marvelled at the amount of food each held. Then another large plate arrived. And another. My sister and I looked at each other and agreed this was more food than we could ever eat in one sitting. I was concerned that the quickness of the food's arrival would mean lukewarm, stale food that had been sitting under a heat lamp for way too long, but I was very pleasantly surprised to discover it tasted fantastic and everything was piping hot! To be fair, this is the only restaurant I have visited in Vernon, but I can't see how it can't be the best in town. Jade Asian Kitchen is certainly one of the best Chinese food restaurants I have ever eaten at. Great job! I will return at every opportunity. Thank you!“
“Our favourite place for date night. We always enjoy a pot of green tea with our meal. We love mix and matching various sushi rolls and sashimi options. Always delicious! The servers are lovely! They are friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is quiet and subdued. I think that's why we love it so much.“
“I had dinner here tonight with 5 other people. All of the food was incredible and the service was fantastic! We had a bunch of different rolls, bowls, sashimi and appies for the table. Everyone enjoyed everything. Great job! 5 stars for sure!“
