The volcano was cool, as it came torched. It also comes with a lot of tuna sashimi, and I was impressed with this! The curry chicken katsu was quite dry so I would not recommend this dish. The chicken was very thin.

The curry had so much chicken and had such a wonderful flavor with the fresh lime leaves. It was hard for me to stop eating, although, I eventually had to! Most dishes can be made gluten-free and the server was very knowledgeable. The service was perfect. We had a bright and cheerful server who tended our table very well.

Portions in Victoria seem to be much more generous than in Vancouver; once again, we struggled to finish and I ended up taking some leftovers. We ordered fried tofu as an appetizer, along with pad thai, tom yum soup, and beef stir-fry. Taste-wise, I was happy that the dishes were actually spicy enough for me, but all of them also leaned quite sweet.

Review Template ===…read more1. VERDICT/VALUE The Google reviews maybe hyped up my expectations; I might only swing by again if I were in the area. The prices were not really enticing enough to get past the food quality bar: which is exceeded by other sushi places in town. === 2. FOOD If Sushi Story excels at anything, it would be on providing large pieces of tempura, square-shaped :) Katsu Dinner Box ($23.95): It's good value for dinner: pork katsu on rice with dynamite roll, salad, four pieces of tempura, some fruit, and miso soup. Sashimi Dinner Box ($25.95) It's the kitchen sink: four pieces of sashimi, three pieces of nigiri, dynamite roll, four pieces of tempura, some fruit, a miso soup and an ebb sunomono. The shrimp in the sunomono were big but very odd-tasting - not sure if they went bad or what, but I would not do that again. The noodles were fine, if not really al dente. Prawn Tempura ($13.95): Six pieces of delights await you, lightly breaded for the most part. === 3. SERVICE Perhaps all but our server were Korean; our server was an older Japanese lady who treated us really well and catered to my little guy. I would be happy to be served at the restaurant again by the lady we had. === 4. ENVIRONMENT Don't let the nondescript parking lot outside fool you; it's a bit of a darker wood oasis that awaits you and it's older but pleasant. Groups may ideally be sized 6 or less, but there is plenty of space between booths/tables and wheelchairs and baby stroller would be welcomed easily. Parking is very much available in the shopping complex lot outside - with a lot of transient traffic from food delivery drivers.

We had udon noodle soup, braised pork noodle soup and one serving each of pork and spicy pork…read moredumplings. Broth was a bit weak in flavour, but the braised pork itself was good. The pork/chive dumplings were decent enough to cure my craving. The spicy pork and cabbage dumplings were not spicy in the least and had a really strange aftertaste, reminiscent of citrus cleaning solution. I considered mentioning it to the server, but after he dropped the food off he was nowhere to be found for the duration of our meal. Service was the most glaring issue here. No water refills and had trouble getting anyone's attention when it came time for the bill. This was my first time at the Stubborn Chef and I will not be back.

A little diner almost hidden from view, nestled next to a local more-save-on foods grocery store…read moreentrance. With limited seating but friendly service, this shop offers the popular Ramune soda pop, as well home made kimchi, and an awesome assortment of local made teas, packaged and ready to purchase. I ordered the spicy shrimp salad that came with a unique spicy mayo sauce and a very light sprinkling of shrimp on a bed of pasta. I personally didn't enjoy this dish, more for the painful price and the lack of protein, and I found the mayonnaise a bit overpowering. We also ordered the signature volcano roll, which is definitely worth a trip to this little diner. Made of an assortment of seafood, this delectable sushi dish can be a meal on its own. We also ordered the Torched Tamagoyaki, drizzled with a savoury sauce that made this little egg dish worth a return trip. Overall a nice experience, and worth a trip for those hidden treasures.

Food was delicious! My braised beef noodle soup was tender and Shrimp Thai Curry Noodles were very good. Not a place we would have picked by just walking-by (nothing fancy) but so VERY GLAD a local pointed us in right direction for an excellent meal!!!

I was really hoping to love I Kyu Noodles, but unfortunately, our experience fell short…read more We stopped by on a quiet summer Sunday around 11 a.m., when not too many other places in Chinatown were open. There was only one other table seated, so we were able to get a table right away. The menu is quite large, and we ordered the pork dan dan noodles and garlic cucumber salad. Service was very slow. It seemed like there may have only been one person cooking, as dishes came out one at a time, and ours arrived about 30 minutes after ordering. When the food did arrive, the flavors didn't quite land. The dan dan noodles were bland, and the cucumber salad tasted more like plain cucumber with some sauce; it didn't seem marinated or seasoned. A friend who used the washroom mentioned it was in rough shape and lacked a way to properly wash hands. Thankfully, she had hand sanitizer with her. I really wanted to support this spot, but between the underwhelming food, long wait, and lack of cleanliness, I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending it at this time. I hope they're able to make some improvements.
