abit overpriced but food is ok

Tried this restaurant as we use to pass by nearly everyday. The food was okay but the service was really slow. Overall not bad... but certainly nothing to rave about. Read more

Top notch Sushi and Japanese cuisine. The fresh market menu is the real deal! Amazingly good! Authentic Japanese dishes were all... prepared with care and delicious. Everything was crazy good. Will be back here again for sure. Read more

Have to say I'm not impressed with the service. We didn't have a reservation but they got us in. The restaurant wasn't full and... not overly busy. It took over 30 minutes to get our appetizers while all the tables around us that arrived after got theirentire meals. Our first entree arrived sometime after and we waited another 10 minutes for the next. The food itself was quitegood and the serving staff prompt and watchful. Given my experience, I won't be going back. Read more

Good food. I liked everything I ate, but everything is so costly for the size. Likely there prices are similar for trendy... izakayas in the Greater Vancouver. Probably same dishes, but prices increased due to inflation (due to pandemic). Service wasok. Host was a little slow to seat us and I think they almost gave away our table to the next 2-seater that came in after us aswe were seated in the waiting area out of view. Servers were quick to clear dishes but not refill tea or check to see if wewanted more dishes. This may be the difference in training between Western and Asian restaurants. Parking was plentiful intheir free parking lot (shared with other businesses). Read more

Freshest, best tasting sushi I've tried yet but with the price to go with it. Great place to go for a night out with a partner.... Not for those with smaller wallets. Read more

We've been driving past this place for years. Finally, I took a look at the food pictures on Google, and well, it obviously made... it to my food adventure list. We added it to our walking list, took the Canada Line one evening to Aberdeen Station, and walkedalong Hazelbridge Way and then Capstan Way. We didn't have a reservation. The manager greeted us at the door and seated us rightaway. While walking past different tables with various displays of amazing sashimi dishes, it felt like we were no longer in BCor Canada. Yes, all the servers spoke English, but the place was strongly Chinese Asian rather than Japanese. The menu was vast,but since there was just the two of us, we couldn't order a lot of items. We chose our favourite, hamachi sashimi ($35.95), andghindara ? grilled miso pickled black cod ($19+). The Hamachi sashimi we had was the most amazing I?ve tasted. Extremely freshand firm. No fishy smells. I've read reviews ? most find this place pricey. Well, it was the most we've paid for hamachi sashimiin Canada. BUT, as shown on the photo, the pieces were not thin, they were excellent, the cut was great, and, after the dish wasfinished, we were well satisfied. At other places with a lower price tag for hamachi, I remember think "that was not enoughfish". The servers were all extremely polite, but we need not feel welcomed, and we did not see a lot of friendly faces. It waskind of sad and severe. Oh, note the size of the wasabi(!) We went back with friends to try BBQ fresh fish. The BBQ salmon bellywere amazing (Salmon Toro Nankotsu $27.9). They were so good we repeated the order. The chicken wings were fantastic but on theexpensive side (Tebasaki $38 for 6). Read more
