    Still one of my favourite Japanese restaurants in the Coquitlam area! They are often busy so I recommend reservations or by beating the usual dining times. They do also do takeout and it's great for grabbing dinners and entertaining guests. We often enjoy the bento sets the most but their rice bowls and sashimi always make us happy. My dad loves their deep fried whole sole. This time we opted for the oyako don and salmon belly (google won't let me add the older pictures I have unfortunately). Definitely give them a visit if you haven't been!

    We were looking for a restaurant with an extensive menu and this restaurant is definitely an option in the Coquitlam area. This restaurant offers some of the more unique Japanese options you do not find at many restaurants. We wanted to order a number of items off their daily specials menu. Unfortunately, those items were unavailable (ie bluefin tuna, crab motoyaki). We ended up ordering a number of items - deluxe assorted sashimi, tempura udon, and uni chawan mushi. My brother ordered a grilled salmon head and maki combo while my parents ordered some bento boxes. Food took a bit of time to arrive. The restaurant was busy with take out orders. Service was good. Kids plate and cutlery were dropped off. We had a pot of tea set aside on the table so we did not have to wait around for a refill. Our server offered to help take a group photo as she saw my dad attempt to take a group selfie. Food was fresh. I was very happy with the quality of the sashimi. My child loved the chawan mushi except for the uni part which I enjoyed. Everything felt very authentic including staff speaking in Japanese.

    Not your typical cookie cutter sushi restaurant. I walked in without any expectations, especially since Coquitlam isn't known for world class sushi. That being said, I was impressed with their "fresh" sheet (it's always encouraging when things are written by hand, indicating it changes frequently). I was especially surprised to see ankimo (monkfish liver) and took the risk ordering it! A couple of the other items were 86, so had to change our order a minute or two later (waitstaff and customers should be made aware of what's low/out of stock) All in all, a good experience

    Why the low reviews? This place has fresh fish, fair prices, and nice owners! Visited my friend who lives in Coquitlam and this is his go-to takeout restaurant and I can see why!

    Had a long day today and craving for Japanese food! My family decided to go to Matoi. Service: 10/10 Atmosphere: cozy and friendly restaurant Pricing: higher price than sushi town or sushi California but the quality is incomparable. Food: Deep fried whole sole 5/5: it is to die for! It was fried to perfection. It wasn't oily but yet so tasty. The sauce add a nice balance to the end Deluxe sashimi vs chef sashimi - 5/5 both are awesome but chef sashimi is more variety of fish. They show case anything that is fresh on the day. Personally I don't understand how to taste and understand each fish so I feel Deluxe sashimi was good enough for me. Grilled skewered pork belly 5/5 - with the miso sauce paste it tasted so amazing. It's like korean Japanese fusion. Oyster and seafood motoyaki 3/5 - I find it a bit too greasy. Negitoro Maki 3.5/5 - flavor tasted amazing but I would recommend less rice and more fish. The balance was a bit off. Uni nigiri - 5/5 - the live uni is from Japan and it was so rich in flavor words can't explain. I didn't order the uni sashimi because it is from Steveston. The uni they use of uni nigiri is from Japan. Overall Matoi food is amazing and I would definitely come back for more. I would call for reservations beforehand or else you will be waiting around 15min for a seat.

    Its an ok option for sushi if you're in the area. I've been here twice now once for dinner and the other for lunch. Definitely prefer dinner menu though lunch was a lot cheaper, quality wasn't the greatest. Both times I came in it was busy. Place is nice clean, workers are friendly and attentive. Overall it was ok.

    At first glance you might not expect much from this small restaurant, located in the suburb of Coquitlam, but you'd be pleasantly surprised. My friend and I ordered a dinner box, with beef and chicken, respectively. The service was friendly and efficient, the food was delicious, and it was open late on a holiday weekend, so I'm thoroughly satisfied. I enjoyed the tamago nigiri that came with the box--It was sweet, fluffy, and beautiful. I only wish there was more chicken teriyaki. I did receive a big bowl of rice (it comes with the box meal), but more teriyaki would have been preferred. The salmon and tuna nigiri were also great. My friend particularly enjoyed the fact that the yam tempura was in strips, like yam fries. I would definitely come back again, and in fact we have on numerous occasions. We'll try some other dishes next time too.

    This is one of our new go to Japanese restaurant in Coquitlam! They have such a great deal on their bento boxes with a good selection of food that is comparable to Sushi Garden and Sushitown. I ordered the combo B which includes 3 nigiri, tuna roll, chicken or beef teriyaki, tempura, daily special (potato croquette), miso soup and a large bowl of rice. A generous portion for under $12. I tried their special roll and steamed egg in previous visits and they were quite tasty too! But overall most people order the bentos and combos in the restaurant as it offers the best selection for the price you pay! Will definitely be my go to place after a day of shopping at coquitlam center!

    Finally out of the country and am seeing my dad's side of the family in Coquitlam, Canada!! It's been 10 years ago since I've seen my family and this beautiful country. Anyways, our family LOoOooOoVES sushi. Being from U.S., I knew we were in for a treat because everything here seemed lessed preserved and artificial. This restaurant is quite small, but it was the first time I was ever in a restaurant where we took off our shoes at the table! It felt very authentic like I was in Japan and the service was lovely. My sushi connoisseur uncle did all the ordering and the highlights of the meal were: SUSHI (yellow tail and the shrimp of course), kimchi udon, soft cooked oyster, chicken skewers, chicken tonkatsu, grilled salmon. I'm not kidding, there was a lot of food and everything was packed with flavor and had a FRESH, clean taste with each bite.

    Dinner box for $17.50

    My go to Japanese restaurant! They are authentic and offer a variety of menu items. They have a fresh sheet and fresh board. They have fresh local ingredients like spot prawn nigiri and uni sashimi freshly opened. This is unheard of in the 'burbs! I usually get their dinner box since it is such a good deal. Their nabeyaki udon has a really nice clean broth with deep flavours. Took off a star because their tempura batter can be thinner and sashimi portions more generous. Wait staff is very friendly.

We probably over ordered a bit. All the rolls are great. Some of the Aburi rice is a bit loose but the flavor is good. I am happy that they have mini udon on the menu.

They just implemented a new takeout menu for a quick reasonable lunch if you're in the area. We ordered: Donkatsu $17 Deluxe negiri and beef udon $25 The pork katsu was well seasoned and juicy for such a lean cut of meat. It comes with miso soup, shredded cabbage and rice The sauce wasn't the typical tonkatsu sauce but a more mild version of it. I think it was well priced for the amount of food. The Deluxe nigiri came with 7 different pieces of fish, including squid and ebi. 2 shrimp tempura and a vegetable one. The beef udon broth was flavourful with a soothing mix of dashi and beef. We were very full after all of the food and the service was good. The only negative is probably the parking. Pay parking around the area or maybe park at the mall and walk over. Over all a great meal!

The donburi looked good with sufficient portion for a strong man. It was tasty, however as I kept eating the soy chicken karaage got more and more salty. Finally I couldn't have anymore. I finished the rice and it was well cooked. I drank two cups of tea after having the donburi. I didn't try other dishes, perhaps I will give them a try when I come here next time. I do hope the chef could make it less salty. Apart from that, service was fine and the ambient was quiet and tidy.

    How lucky are we to have such amazing talent and kind hospitality in a seemingly unassuming plaza…read morehousing an omakase restaurant that refuses to sacrifice quality without having to actually travel to Japan?! An absolute A+ to Chef Keith and Chika for their mastery of perfecting a great omakase experience in the tricities. They are reservations only (and for a good reason!) and this can be done on their new online portal!! by controlling the number of seatings, Chef K and Chika are able to interact and share their craft with patrons in an intimate and personal way. There is no hustle and bustle or fakeness that would otherwise follow some restaurant vibes. There is purely passion for fish, customer service and, of course, metal music! I urge you to dine at the chefs bar and let Chef K tell you his extensive and wonderful background from catering some A list bands, to being on tour, and changing restaurant models all while being fed an amazing feast. The fish is sourced from Japan and screams quality and flavour. He knows exactly what he's doing with all the fish profiles and pairing them with a variety of notes like shiso, yuzu and ginger. Between the 14 unbelievably mouth watering and satisfying dishes, Chef K and Chika's kindness shared the spotlight easily. Humble beginnings have led to an extraordinary and legendary journey for SKK. Some of the special highlights were the blue fin tuna, South American jumbo prawn, Spanish mackerel and the scallops. I cannot wait to bring my omakase/metal loving friends and family here to join in on the greatness because sharing truly is caring and this gem is too awesome to keep to myself!

The chef really took the time to make everything beautifully presented and to explain each dish. I really enjoyed the sauces he created for the dishes too. You could really see the passion behind his work. Although I don't normally listen to rock music, I found that it was still tasteful and the music wasn't blaring. The dinner ended up being over 2.5 hours which was longer than we expected, but I found it worthwhile. Something to note, you need to pre-book your reservation online and pay a deposit of $50/person. Upon arrival the deposit will get refunded back to you. They are unable to deduct the deposit from your final bill.
