Visited them twice at this location and both times were just average. One time our miso soup tasted a little sour and the server said that it was supposed to be sour :O I usually love their Aburi sushi's but I feel like it's done better at the lougheed location! But overall it's a spacious spot and at a nice spot with lots of street parking!

I visited for lunch and it was really spacious here. There was even a cute semi-private room that was labelled "secret garden". Their options for aburi sushi are pretty extensive and range from $13-18. The ones I tried (salmon and yukke tuna) were well made, not too saucey, and didn't fall apart easily. The Mentaiko Cream Linguine came in a pretty big portion with large pieces of shrimp and some mushroom. The Kabocha Korrokke was really soft and creamy inside with a quail egg in the middle. The sauce was sweet and I enjoyed it. There's a button at each table that you can press if you need something.

First time trying this restaurant. We chose this place for today based on the ratings. The service is on- point. We were greeted when we arrived and when we finished dining. We were checked on during our meal. 4 star. Ambiance. The restaurant is big, open and welcoming. 4 star. I'm sorry to say, the food didn't meet with expectations. My noodles and broth were bland and tasteless. It was a ponzu broth, so I expected the zing from it however I didn't expect to be so much of the bitter rind to be in it. 2 star. Overall, 3-star

Stopped by for dinner. Ordered the aburi platter, beef udon and beef tatami to share. Unfortunately the aburi fell short at this location. Compared to their other locations, the sushi was too over torched and dried out! Portion sizes are also smaller.

Tried take out from this location this time. Aburi sushi platter nicely done. Sushi rolls large and not too much rice. Liked the sockeye salmon avocado roll. Tamago roll was huge. The menu is limited and other standard options at sushi places not available here. If you don't purchase a bag they just hand you a bunch of boxes and it's not secured properly. Had to ask for chopsticks. This is probably a better dine in place than for takeout. Overall nicer sushi restaurant in the area with mid line price point.

The first meal I had in Vancouver! Green leaf is a nice sushi restaurant good for a date night. Service was fairly quick and I was satisfied with my meal here. We ordered the aburi platter, seafood salad, and the sashimi appetizer. To be honest the aburi platter was kinda underwhelming - I really only liked the seared salmon, seared scallop, and the roll. It was also my first time trying oshi style sushi which is pressed, which felt like too little fish and too much rice especially since the layers of fish were thin.. The seafood salad and sashimi appetizer were really good though! I really liked the seafood salad dressing, and the sashimi tasted pretty fresh. The agedashi tofu was too thick and meaty compared to what I'm used to. There a good bite to each one and the sauce was too light for the thickness of tofu. Surprisingly the aburi platter leftovers tasted better the next day right out of the fridge LOL. Yum!

Looks like the former hot pot place here died and is now Korean sushi. Green Leaf is a local chain (4 locations as of the time of writing). Parking is available in the attached hotel lot, as well as the side streets and Kingsway. The inside is clearly a former hot pot restaurant. All the tables still have exhaust vents above them. Somewhat hilarious to look at. No point in ripping out all the duct work. I get it. Guess the good news is they can add Korean BBQ in the future if desired. The decorations are a random mix of vintage decorations. Almost feels the inside of an old farmhouse. Interesting. Staff are friendly. No complaints. I had the Green Leaf-er combo. 5 pieces of (mixed salmon and tuna) sashimi, 3 pieces of snapper tempura served on a bit of salad, and 6 pieces of oshi (melt in your mouth sushi). The presentation is really cute. Really liked the little fountain shaped wasabi bowl. Portion size is a bit small, so something to keep in mind. Quality is there though. My friends had pasta and ramen dishes instead, and the portion size looked pretty decent. Better value if you ask me. Wouldn't mind coming back at some point.

Green leaf sushi is my favourite sushi restaurants - I really recommend their aburi platter & mentiako udon. But I noticed recently their aburi is smaller, so it's definitely a treat to come here. The service is wonderful, we ordered tuna sashimi and it looked kind of old so the server comped it out of our bill. The restaurant is massive so it's great for families, and group gatherings.

Was really excited for Green Leaf to open their fourth location, and it's right near me! Had to order take out cause of the kiddos, but everything was fresh and still hot by the time we got home. Their aburi is their bread and butter, and always so good! My favourites are the salmon oshi, ebi, and hotate. Everything is seasoned well, and the flavour combinations are just so tasty and I love that they use Serrano peppers on some for a little heat. Also tried for the first time the beef teriyaki don. I would not recommend this as there was barely any sauce for the rice and beef, and it was very dry. All in all a solid go to for aburi, and worth checking out if you're in the neighbourhood.

Four types of oshi

Great choice during my trip to BC. The highlight for me was the oshi, which had a similar form as nigiri but came in six pieces. Each type was topped with a special sauce or seasoning, giving each bite enough flavor to balance the relatively thick layer of rice (compared to typical nigiri). The presentation was very pretty.

First time at this Japanese restaurant, and it was really great!…read more Signature Japanese Fried Pork Cutlet Rosu Katsu $27 This time I was smarter and ordered the cut with a good balance of fat and lean meat. The moment I bit into it, it was bursting with juice! The meat was incredibly thick but not dry at all, and the outer skin was crispy like snowflakes. The first bite was amazing; I've never had such a delicious pork cutlet in Shanghai. Curry Pork Cutlet Rosu Curry $29.5 My friend ordered the curry pork cutlet today, and it was surprisingly excellent! The curry flavor was incredibly rich and full-bodied. Wrapped in the crispy pork cutlet and eaten with rice, it was pure carb bliss! Freshly Ground Sesame Powder I have to praise their freshly ground sesame powder; the aroma of the sesame seeds you grinded yourself was a real highlight. * With lemon salt: Refreshing and original, a perfect way to cut through the richness! * With barbecue sauce: Mixed with sesame powder, the flavors develop layer by layer. With two flavors to choose from, it's really hard to stop! I'll definitely come back to try it again next time.

A must visit if you are a katsu fan! I ordered the Ebi and Hotate Katsu Curry. The katsu was…read moredeliciously crispy on the outside, but juicy on the inside. The portion was massive - it came with 3 huge prawns and 2 juicy scallops. I barely made a dent in my food and went home with a very full box of leftovers. Saku generously provides unlimited refills on their miso soup and cabbage salad. The cabbage salad with homemade sesame dressing was especially addicting! I could eat it for days. Service was attentive and the restaurant decor was sleek and modern. I will absolutely be back next time I'm in Vancouver!

I made a reservation at Okeya Kyujiro for my partner's 40th birthday, and he had the best time…read more Honestly, it was one of the most memorable omakase experiences I've had in Vancouver. Okeya Kyujiro is a Michelin one-star theatrical omakase restaurant, and when they say theatrical, they mean it! From the moment you're welcomed by smiling ushers in kimono to the closing tea ceremony, every movement feels intentional, precise, and elevated. The ambiance is serene and anticipatory. At the start, guests sit in silence as a black screen conceals the chefs. You see their shadows moving behind it. A bell rings, the screen lifts, and the performance begins. Dinner is a 25+ course experience priced at $325 per person. It's undeniably a splurge, but for a milestone celebration, it feels justified. The menu is seafood-forward, with many ingredients flown in from Japan. Each ingredient is presented before preparation, then carefully assembled and served directly from chef to guest. Courses arrive one by one, never rushed. The service team moves seamlessly in the background, refilling water and attending to drinks (available as an add-on) without disrupting the flow. The finale is a matcha ceremony, whisked in front of you with the same quiet precision that defines the evening. When the final sip is taken, the bell chimes once more, the chefs and staff bow, and the screens close. It was a beautifully choreographed dining experience, perfect for marking a special moment, and one I'd gladly return to for the next celebration.

Service was really amazing with servers explaining each dish and drinks were always topped off…read more Food was good, but maybe this isn't quite my style of omakase compared to the other ones I've tried. This is a more theatrical style so expect louder music and a more theatrical experience (eg one of the servers played the flute for the guests celebrating birthdays). I prefer a more intimidate and interactive style of omakase where you can talk with the chefs. This lunch also felt a little fast in terms of progression of the meal. Some of the dishes were very tasty while others didn't wow us. With drinks, we were quite full despite some reviews saying portion is on the smaller size. Our total was around $500 with drinks for 2 people. A really good experience for omakase, especially if you are looking for a unique experience though not my favourite one I've tried.

Restaurant is very small so reservations (thru open table) is high recommended!…read more Street parking in downtown area is crazy, make sure to give yourself plenty of time to make your resos Staff is very nice, we were running late and calledI to see if we can push back our reservation 15 mins and they did. My daughter spilled water and the staff was very kind about it, I felt so bad! Food is amazing, everything has its unique flavor and texture. All is so good is all I can say!! We had left over fried rice and ate it next morning cold but was still so delicious!! Love that you can order the sashimi combo (choose 3) and get a little of everything. We got spot prawn, salmon and yellow tail... so so so good Restaurant is very small so it does feel crowded and can get very noisy. We went with 2 younger kids and they weren't bothered. The booth seats are high so no boosters are needed. Food is so good!! The only complaint is noise level/ crowded space but it can't be helped since it's a small shop and the food is totally worth it

I came here for dinner on a weeknight with two foodie friends of mine. Said friends lived in Japan…read morefor over a decade and they've dined here often in the past, saying it's very "authentic" Izakaya and it reminds them of their past life in Japan (which they miss a lot). Me, I know nothing about Izakaya or what is or isn't authentic Japanese cuisine, so this review is coming from someone with zero knowledge or expectation of any specific foods or experiences. Despite it being a weeknight, the place was packed. It was good that we had a reservation. There was a couple in line before me and they were walk-ins, and there were no available seats for them. I noted how small this place was, and crowded, with the tables close together and a long bar with a counter and barstools there (also close together). Our reserved table was right by the front door - literally, - so every time the door opened, we got a gust of cold air (and it was a cold February night when we were there). I kept my coat on. Truth be known, I was not very comfortable. Also, it was loud. Very loud. I like how the staff shout Japanese greetings to diners whenever they enter but between the frequent shouts and the sheer volume of chatter from all the diners, all sitting close together in close proximity, it was kinda hard to hear what my friends were saying during our dinner. That said, the environment was super vibrant and, again, my friends said this was very typical of an Izakaya in Japan. Food-wise, I have no idea what my friends ordered. The menu was primarily available by way of a QR code and I had no idea what the dishes were, so I deferred to my friends' knowledge. But I can attest that all the dishes were DELICIOUS. We had some sort of Japanese street food "pancakes" (they were wonderful). We had some sort of stirfry beef with noodles (amazing). We had two types of sashimi (omg both were so fresh and so so good!). We had a few other dishes that I can't recall, but I remember I loved them. So.... the food here was GREAT. Service was also attentive which I hadn't expected, being as busy as the restaurant was. I really liked this place but I'll probably go back in the summertime when the weather is nicer as I was cold there, and I'd dine at an off-time, when the volume wasn't so loud. (I'm too old for the loudness!).

We picked up the 16-piece Premium Cut Rolls (toro, yellowtail, scallop, and truffle lobster), and the quality really showed in the taste. Everything was clean, fresh, and well-balanced -- no heavy sauces, no distractions, just really good fish. The toro was rich and smooth, the scallop was buttery, and the truffle lobster added a nice depth without overpowering the roll. Pickup was quick and seamless, and the food was packaged well for eating on the go before a flight. Portions are standard, but the flavor and quality are absolutely the highlight here. If you care more about how sushi tastes than flashy extras, Hello Nori is a great choice. Would happily come back next time.
