Purely off the ready-to-eat food we had, I would 100% come again if I'm in the area. At 6pm on a Friday night, the last hour of opening, the offerings had understandably dwindled. However, there were still many options, at least 15+ aburi sushi and assorted sushi boxes, as well as 5 or so sashimi boxes. Prices for prepared foods are just a tiny bit above average, but the items we chose were fresh and very tasty, making them well worth the price. We picked up : * aburi salmon 6pc ($15) --- Solid for the price. A good, average aburi that's comparable to what you'd get at a restaurant. * hamachi sashimi 4pc med-fatty ($16) --- Comparable in both price and freshness to a sit-down spot. Great cuts. * warabi mochi ($6.50) --- not sure how they transport these or if they were ever frozen, but it honestly didn't matter. The texture was soft and chewy, nearly on par with the fresh warabi mochi I've had in Japan. If you're a warabi mochi fan, I'd definitely recommend picking one up. * hamachi collar $9.50 --- Pleasantly surprised to find such a decent meaty portion for under $10. The marbling looked incredible when we first saw it. Felt like a mythic find, although I'm not one who goes out of my way to find fish collars. We baked and broiled it for a delicious dinner :) For some quality fish in those boxes, I'd pay the slight premium for Aburi market's sushi/sashimi options over the average grocery store any day. read more

This was a cute Japanese market which offers a small variety of groceries, ready-made food and top grade meat in the butcher section. I grabbed a snacks. Some items were a bit pricey but not unusual for the type of items offered. read more

What a cool market! They have a beautiful quick selection of sushi and other light bites. They have a meat selection for ramen/hotpot and a few dessert options. You can also buy ramen and make it at their hotel water station. Cool little spot. read more

With so many Japanese restaurants, aburi market still sits close to the top in my books. It's hard to pick the best rolls, so I went with the False Creek assorted sushi along with some fresh tuna sashimi. read more

Oh man, I wish we have an Aburi Market where we live.... but oh well. We were like two little kids in a candy shop and want to try everything. We ended up trying a mixed sushi box, some yellowtail sashimi, a couple of onigiri (wagyu & salmon), and a scoop each of lychee and yuzu ice cream. We took are collection of loots and sat outside in the mild mid-day weather to enjoy our little lunch. Everything tasted so good (given they are like a take-it-&-go type meal. We wish we could try more things including the wonderful looking wagyu beef displayed in the cooler. Maybe next time. read more

Small market for quick grab and go Japanese foods. Got both hot food items as well as a seafood bowl and onigiri. Wish we had space for more items. Everything looked and tasted good. The only thing I would change is add more salmon to the onigiri. read more

This place continues to be great! It is in a perfect location, so close to Ambleside park. The variety in the grab and go section is amazing. I wanted to get everything! I got some aburi with Cali roll, the salmon avo don, the katsu sando. All of it was delicious. The service was quick as well. I will definitely come back if in the area. read more

Grab and go style, perfect for a quick lunch. I got the yaletown assorted sushi, which comes with California rolls and salmon. Even though it's premade, the sushi tasted fresh, and the rice is not hardened like other ready-made sushi. It's so good that I had this 2 days in a row. Picky-eater approved! read more

I really love the concept of this store, went in to grab a quick bite and to get dinner to bring home. I got the salmon aburi and it's so good and decently priced. I also got a teriyaki rice bowl to bring home and it was absolutely filling and the same price as a Fujiya rice bowl which was great! The store has a wide selection of Japanese goods and deals on certain days for hot food. Staff were friendly and kind, great place for grab and go Japanese food that is of higher quality! read more

Pricy but very high quality Japanese (Hokkaido themed) market by Ambleside area. Came here to see what the hype was all about. Parking is available in the lot beneath the building, as well as on the streets. The place is run by the same company that operate Miku and Minami (high end Japanese dining in Downtown Vancouver), so the bar was already set high. Yes, the stuff is pricey, but it sure is delicious. With a lightened wallet I sampled their sushi and rolls, chicken karaage, and deep fried oysters. The food is prepared very meticulously. That Japanese touch is there. Everything was super tasty. The only strange thing is that the seating area in the corner has a tank of hot water but no tea. Tea is an extra charge here. I will be back to try more stuff. The only thing limiting me this time was my wallet and my stomach. read more

ABURI MARKET Grosvenor Ambleside just celebrated their 1 year anniversary and is brought here by the team behind Miku & Minami restaurants. I could not resist a peek inside this authentic Japanese Washoku and a few purchases along the way. This elevated market carries fresh sushi, onigiri, premium sashimi, wagyu steak from the Iwate Prefecture of Japan - ribeye, striploin, sukiyaki or yakuniku cuts - and an aisle dedicated to imported snacks, sweets and desserts. They have marvellous ready to eat ramen meal kits, Gyoza Bar bentos, salads and Shojin vegan plant-based Japanese meal options. Literally had to peel myself away from their sashimi on display and the Arita-Yaki plateware. I picked up some ready made bentos, assorted sushi, imported snacks and condiments to bring home which the family raved about. Positively delicious. read more

I came here with my Yelper friend C. Aburi Market is owned by the same owner as Miku. It is a Japanese market that sells high quality food and snacks. We picked up dinner here. There is one big table and a microwave for you to heat up the food. I also picked up some Japanese snacks and goodies. The service was great here. I wanted fresh fried oyster and the staff was very helpful and willing to fry fresh ones for me. I got chicken teriyaki, fried oyster and a lemon drink. Everything was tasty. Everything was made fresh on the day. They have high quality cut meat as well. If you come on a Wednesday, there are discounts on meat. After dinner, I ended up picking other items: chocolate, miso soup paste and some snacks. I will be back next time I am in the area. read more

By the water in north van and has a wide selection of japanese snacks, goodies and sushi! Their bento combo and bahri sushi combo all looked amazing. Was upset they're so far away from where I live or I would go there way more! read more

I love this place! I walked past it whenever I was in the area on Sunday but it was closed on Sunday then. But they are finally open on Sundays. Aburi Market is by the same management of Miku and Minami, so you know you will be getting quality products here. It is not a big place but it has a bit of everything. From fresh wagyu and fish to the condiments and drinks and cultural items. The highlight for me is the ready to eat section. It has all the Japanese dishes I love. Sashimi, chirashi, sushi, the fried stuff, the rice, sando, appetizer stuff and more. I decided to try the fried oyster sandwich and the basic chirashi. Both were delicious! You could eat by the beach or park or even by the little patio right outside. There is also a microwave by the cashiers to heat up food if needed. I can see myself coming here very often whenever I am in the area now. I want everything! read more

My new favourite spot for high quality takeout sushi. Yes, there are a couple of tables but they are usually occupied. All rolls and nigiri that I have tried were terrific. Lunch for two for $25. Lots of other options. One of these days they may have some of the famous egg salad sandwiches left, but no luck so far. read more

Great addition to the speciality food scene in West Van!! Well staffed and products are attractively displayed, this "market" specialized in top grade imported Japanese meats & seafood! If you want to enjoy wagyu from Japan you will not be disappointed! Oh and you can also get all the necessary ingredients needed to make an authentic "sukiyaki"!! Love their selection of fine Japanese tablewares! Check out the bentos & sashimi "to-go" items!! Staffs are all well trained to answer all your questions or if you need ideas for dinner!! read more

Situated right next to Ambleside Park, this is the perfect place to grab a meal if you're visiting the beach, especially on a sunny day! More of a grab and go concept as well as a Japanese market, Aburi Market had plenty of choices including an assortment of sushi rolls, bento boxes, sashimi and some appetizers as well. We noticed that you could order the sushi items from the kitchen so we got the bluefin trio, yale town sushi set and the mini bara charashi. The food took a little while to be made but I could see that they put a lot of care and effort into constructing the rolls. Int the end, the wait was worth it because each roll had a perfect vinegar to sugar ratio, was not packed too tightly and was not mushy at all. My favourite of the rolls was the Bluefin with Pickled Radish although the bluefin with shiso was a close second. The Yaletown combo had a little bit of all their most popular including aburi salmon and shrimp, the red wave roll and a california roll. The aburi is famous for a reason but the red wave roll was my favourite of this dish. The Chirashi was not topped with too much (mini for a reason) but the rice was exceptional. The minimal ingredients on top let the simplicity of the dish shine. We went with the Chicken Karaage Bento and felt that it was a wonderful choice. Although coming from the fridge, it was nothing a 2 minute heat up couldn't handle. The assortment of side dishes is what made it so good with some light bites of seaweed, candied sweet potatoes, carrots and gomae. The chicken itself was juicy and well seasoned. This bento was also a GREAT price! Overall, a great place to stop by for a high quality grab and go meal. Too bad its so far away but just another reason to visit the beautiful park nearby! read more

The deli food is so good here. It's like a grab and go place where they had delicious potstickers, fried chicken, fried oysters, sushi and much more. We got a selection of food and it was all very fresh and delicious. The people working here were really helpful. The store wasn't too crowded and nicely set up. There was plenty of parking up front. read more

Very good one, the price is reasonable. Food is fresh and authentic. Very good one, the price is reasonable. Food is fresh and authentic. read more

Aburi sushi for $13.50! This is unheard of for West Vancouver! It's an identical version of Miku/Minami as this place is owned by the same company, but the Aburi is a fraction of the price! They also offer a wide variety of other ready made dishes, housewares, and meats to cook. I would highly recommend a visit here as there's something you will find no matter what! read more

Love this market for Japanese specialty foods and products! Located in West Vancouver, they import items from all over Japan. They also host tasting events from time to time. Lots of ready to eat items to choose from. I ended up trying the blue fin tuna sashimi and Aburi salmon for lunch. Pricey but so good! read more

Well stocked and large variety of authentic Japanese food and ingredients. For the premium ingredients, you'll be paying the price. Tried the Aburi sampler, Azuki bean dango, smoked hamachi. I was worried the to-go aspect of aburi would affect the quality however I was pleasantly surprised by its deliciousness. The rice was the stand out part as any sushi connoisseur knows its all about the rice. Well seasoned, well compressed so it's not falling apart when you pick it up each grain of rice is still visible and not mushed together. It's a good thing the rice was so good or I'd complain about the thinness of the fish on top. Because it was definitely thin, so thin I was wondering how one can cut sashimi that thin Overall solid 4 stars. Would up to 5 if price was lower and fish amount was larger. read more

What an amazing shop with so many Japanese items. My favorite part was the "deli" section with temaki, aburi oshizushi, chirashi, and bento boxes. I was looking for something quick and easy to pick up and there was no shortage of options very clean and modern shop located right by the water. read more

Good variety on ready to eat meals and wagyu but aside from that, it's pretty lacking in terms of Japanese products. It's nice how you can order sushi made to order here just like regular restaurant. This place serves the best potato wagyu coquette in Vancouver but unfortunately it's only available once a week. read more

Great quality and service. Their rolls are very fresh and tasty without being overly fishy. However their prices are quite high.

Excellent selection of high quality aburi sushi and other prepared delights! Yes it's pricey but so is going to Minami but you get the same sushi for a few dollars less. Plus you get to eat picnic style in the outdoors, staring at the beautiful ocean view in Ambleside. That's a win-win in my opinion. read more

I've been hooked on Wagyu for a few years now and finding this place has changed my life. I used to have to go to Richmond for my previous Japanese butcher but this place in West Vancouver is so so much better in all respects. The prices are about 25% less because they buy the entire cow. This also makes the selection of A5 cuts so much greater. The sushi is next level. I would never pick up sushi from a restaurant again when I can get it here. I'm in the shop at least twice a week and I can't see that stopping anytime soon. read more

Love this place so much! The temaki is delicious and so reasonably priced. Staff is always helpful.

Good fresh Sushi plates, bento boxes . There's a counter that you can have personally order , ready to cook hotpot plates, or Kobe beef boxes. The snakes and drinks from Japan. Should go to visit. read more
