21 Best Sushi Bars in Vancouver

“My husband and I just moved to Vancouver and went to Sakanaya Sushi for our anniversary dinner. All of the food was super fresh, presented exquisitely, and our server was lovely. Very friendly, casual atmosphere. The prices were very good as well. We will definitely be returning!“

“The location this place is on a really cool street that is blocked off from traffic so I recommend you check out this place and other places around it. As for the sushi, I had the chirasi bowl and it was good. I've had better but decent sushi good size portions. The one thing I did not like about the charasi bowl was this is the first time I've ever ever had it with hot rice and I didn't mind the hot rice but they put the hot rice right next to the sashimi and it started steaming some of the sashimi.“

“New sushi restaurant with conveyor belt in Salmon Creek area (next door to The Barbers). Good quality, fresh sashimi. We tried several rolls and sashimi and enjoyed everything. We will def be back again.“

“Very good Korean BBQ and Shabu Shabu. Great service. Will definitely go again.“

“FANTASTIC! So many positive things to say about this family owned business in the heart of the new waterfront.

The staff greet you warmly as if you are family. It’s amazingly clean. The tables, chairs and decor are tasteful, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing.

Even the glasses, straws, plates and utensils are spotless and high quality.

They do not fry food in kitchen so the restaurant smells great. It’s quiet and the music is subtle and not obnoxiously loud. You could have a romantic date here and not be shouting over the din.

They have booths, tables, and private spaces, as well as a beautiful bar.

The FOOD! I can’t say enough about the high quality and presentation. The owners traveled to Hawaii to get a direct source for their tuna. The miso soup is made from scratch and is sooo yummy. I’ve eaten in every sushi bar in Vancouver and Portland and Shinsen is definitely on another level.

You will spend some $$ but if you think of sushi as a luxurious treat and not fast food like I do then you’re right on the money with what to expect from this fine dining experience.

P.S. Do yourself a favor and get the Giesha Roll... You will not regret it!“

“This place was so good! Large fresh rolls. Great service!“

“Delicious food. Friendly staff. Welcoming environment. I highly recommend Sushi Mo.“

“First time here and will be back again! They had something for everyone in the family, it was clean and the staff was nice. Daniel made our sushi and was funny and very nice! His sushi was great and he made sure to let us know not to over order because the size of the rolls is pretty substantial, which is fantastic as a family on a budget! We will be coming back here for sure!!“

“Amazing food and wonderful staff!!“

“My brother a seasoned sushi eater. Who also loves anime and ninjas. Said this place is the second best sushi place ever. I think it is the first. I brought a girl here on a date and got laid that night. So I would say best sushi spot in town.“

“Great food and nice atmosphere!“

“I like to come here with my dad and sushi is good quality and I just love be their spicy tuna hand rolls, however, I was really disappointed to see that the conveyor is no longer a thing. Don’t get me wrong, sushi is still great, but it’s still a shame that the conveyor isn’t a thing anymore.“

“Good food!“

“delicious sushi 🍣 great variety and prices“

“I ordered from DoorDash and the food that arrived looked incredible and tasted incredible, and was very obviously fresh (piping hot and crunchy). Most stores put little effort into their delivery orders but it was obvious this store takes care of all of its customers, and I will definitely be returning here. You guys rock!“

“My partner and I frequently order take out from Thai Orchid (using the Uber app) and, although the food is always delicious, I wanted to give some feedback about your online menu (at least the one that’s available on Uber Eats).

We love extra sauces and we always order peanut sauce, spicy fish sauce, and chili paste with our entrees. Unfortunately, these sauces are not available as sides for purchase on the Uber app. We want to pay for what we order, so we tried to call the restaurant to add these sauces to our order, but they arrived without our requested side sauces.

My only ask is that you all please add your sauces to your Uber Eats menu as optional add on’s. I imagine we are not your only patrons who would appreciate this addition. Thank you for your consideration.“

“It seems more expensive than other places but when you see how big the rolls are it will make sense. The sushi tastes amazing! I’ve tried a few other sushi places in Vancouver but this is by far the best tasting. We usually order takeout but I’ve seen the inside of the restaurant and it’s very simple but clean. Not super fancy or romantic but the lighting is low in the evening and it could be perfectly fine for date night. 5 stars and the yakisoba is yummy too because my kids don’t like sushi. Spent about $100 for a family of 4 with plenty of leftovers for the next day.“

“I was in here very briefly for a quick ichi roll today and it was great! It was just me coming at a slow time so they sat me very quickly. I got my roll very quickly too!
I decided on the ichi roll, and it is the best I’ve had! I didn’t get the peanuts on top, but it was so good I didn’t even ask about it being missing. They were very kind and I’m sure if I brought it up to them they would have provided it.“

“We love coming in after work for soju and some sushi. LOVE the owners- they are so sweet and we love supporting them. Great, basic sushi, good selection of sake/soju/beer/wine and awesome service. Clean, convenient, and a great place to hang out. 10/10“

“Service was great , bar area was nice“

“Sushi is amazing, I’ve been coming here for many years and it never disappointed me. I love the raw sashimi, the Vegas rolls are amazing and just in general they have a great variety! Always quick service and I feel like it’s the fastest lunch/dinner spot!“
