Reviews for Futaba Sushi in Victoria, BC
Presentation was good; however, everything tasted either extremely bland, off, or fishy. I regret taking a chance and ordering... here. The quality of the food tasted like something you could get at a sub-par food court. I ordered the Sushi boat for 1. Italso came with a miso soup that was extremely dark and salty. I don't recommend ordering here. Read more
This place is pretty dang good. A little pricey. But hey. I got it on skip. The sushi rice has improved! Still needs work. But... its not bad. Now. What we all care about. The cuts if fish. Very. Very good on this order. Guys. If you can figure out yourrice ( more vinegar, less cook time and water ) you will crush it Read more
Decided to try this place. NEVER AGAIN.... I ordered the yakitori and the spider tempura through skip the dishes. TL;DR: soggy,... oily, squished food, bland, sauce unsecured. Yakitori: Chicken completely unseasoned. was it boiled? bland. Green onions weresoggy. oh! and to top it off, the sauce spilled through the container all on the bottom of the bag and on my furniture. SpiderTempura: The sauce... i think it is straight vinegar. for some perspective, partner is a huge fan of salty, sour and vinegarythings. salt and vinegar on fries, potato chips, puts 10 sour skittles in his mouth at a time, will eat the sugar on the bottomtoo and eats plain feta with nothing else. He said it was too much. and the crab itself.... i paid 10 dollars for a minisculeportion. Now i understand seafood and fried things are oily but this was dripping. Soggy like applesauce or a wet cracker, and ithink they... fried it with the shell on? but i could be wrong. how is it tempura if you dont get to eat the artery cloggingfried bits? I tried it, I really did. It made me slightly nauseous, you would have to pay me very handsomely to take anotherbite. My partner got the yam tempura and teriyaki chicken sushi. The yam tempura was okay, but its hard to mess that up. Thesushi was alright but it was cut unevenly, and squished. This is seriously the worst food I've had in a long time. Read more
I love bad food so this place is great for me. All of the food on the plate tasted bad even the ginger! I think it was even... actually off which was a bonus. We got some tuna sashimi that came out frozen. I was thrilled. If you enjoy bad sushi and badfood this is the spot for you!! Read more
Did take out - bring your own bag or ask about packaging price for your order! They charged 0.15cents for a brown paper bag... without mentioning it until I saw it in the receipt and the order was already in the bag, STAPLED closed. The food was ok - yamroll was good. Portion of maki were small which was expected but there was barely any fish, so it was mainly rice. Read more
Ordered through skip the dishes. The portions were small -- the chicken teriyaki was especially small for the price. The tuna... sashimi was partially frozen and not sliced well. As you can see in the picture we did not get much for $100. You can also seehow unappetizing the tuna sashimi looks. Taste was ok, but for the money not worth it. We ordered for 4 people and and theamount of food due to the portion sizes was insufficient. Read more
The place and the atmosphere there is nice. Service is ok. Problem here is the sushi rice. I ordered the sushi boat, and kinda... disappointed because the rice has NO flavor. You suppose to season the sushi rice, not just give me plain rice. Fish is freshand tasty, so it's not too too bad. Read more
Stopped in for takeout and tried the spicy salmon and the spicy tuna roll. Flavour was excellent, but it took almost an hour to... be ready. Definitely call and order ahead! They seemed frazzled with various online order platforms as well as numerousin-person takeout patrons, and with only 1 man behind the counter preparing the food, it's no surprise that they were having areally hard time keeping up with orders.
