I didn't expect this quaint little sushi place to be amazing, but it exceeded my expectations, the quality is honestly quite delicious and I love that the rolls aren't bombard by rice. I would definately come back here. The scallop with sauce rolls were absolutely delicious.
Best authentic sushi in all lower mainland. A real Japanese restaurant. We love to eat here a lot. A boutique style restaurant, open Tuesday to Sunday, 11am-2:00pm/ 5:00pm-8:00pm Very clean, fresh, great service. I would recommend the California Mango roll made of brown rice. Best Tuna tataki in town.
Amazing little community sushi restaurant! The service is very polite. The food isn't "rice heavy"... Meaning you get lots of salmon, tuna, etc. Everything tastes great too! We will be coming back .
I enjoyed eating here with friends, the sushi was great. I recommend the scallop rolls (forgor the exact name)
This Japanese restaurant is always the best in Richmond! No kidding here! It beats all other Japanese restaurants in the city. It is just far away from anywhere. I was happened in the neighbourhood doing stuff, so my boyfriend and I dropped by and had lunch here. Man! Their sashimi was fresh. Sushi had the right amount of rice. Ramen tasted about right. Customer service was excellent. I really had no complaints about anything about this Japanese restaurant. If you happen to be in this neighbourhood or Steveston in Richmond, you need to drop by this restaurant and try their Japanese food. There is always take out and customers dining in. The restaurant is always busy. I came here in 2015, 2016 and 2017. Their quality always remains well. I wish other Japanese restaurants in Great Vancouver would be like this one. :)
Sweet small little restaurant run by a duo. One chef in the back, one lady taking orders and I think also doing the cooked food. The raw fish here is excellent, I’d recommend ordering that over cooked rolls. Tried the negitoro roll , chopped scallop roll, dynamite roll, saba nigiri, and toro nigiri. The tempura in the dynamite roll tasted a little bit like stale oil, it was my least favourite and I wouldn’t recommend it. No complaints about the negitoro or chopped scallop, both were great and the negitoro actually used toro. Many restaurants just use normal tuna. The toro in the nigiri was nice and fatty, I was able to glide my chopstick over it and a nice sheen was on the chopstick. The shimesaba was excellent though, nice soft and fatty texture. Flavour was great too. really nicely cured. It’s a tiny restaurant though — inside is one single seater table, one two seater, one four seater and four seats at the counter. Outside are two tables that seat two each. You may have to wait around during peak times, especially considering the small size of the restaurant and how it’s run by a duo. Definitely wouldn’t recommend this place for larger groups, at least not for dine in.
This is a wonderful little gem! I was in town for a concert and wanted some fresh sushi. This place interested me and was in a quiet part of town. I was absolutely delighted with how fresh and good the sushi was. The prices were excellent. The food was fresh, full of flavour and so so good. It was so good I ended up just deciding to go back a couple hours later for supper and try more of their menu! I will go back any time I make it back to the area.
Nice tiny family run Japanese sushi restaurant next to the Sanctuary Cafe. Their ramen texture is good but too little meat! They serve very fresh and tasty sushi/rolls with refreshing Japanese tea. We like their spicy tofu salad and oyako don as well.
