Had a quick lunch here the other day and it was pretty good. Will have to return to sample other dishes but not during school days when Lord Byng students come during lunch time from 1140-1225pm. The place is tiny and at a busy intersection but there is free street parking prior to the right turn lane on w 16th. read more

I come here a lot and I love it. The food always tastes fresh and the service is spot on. The people here are friendly and they like to give out freebies if you dine in. Their fish is probably the freshest I've had in a long time, and it's always cut nice and thick. You get what you pay for here. If you love sashimi, then this is the place to be. Thumbs up all the way. =) read more

Intimate, friendly and mouthwatering sashimi! The most delicate and robust flavored melt in your mouth tempura. The atmosphere is kinda cheesy, but the food overrides the cheesy decor. read more

Momo Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Wow, what a nice find! Not the easiest place to find on west 16th, just opened probably last month. Asked the server what are the signature dishes, and he recommended the Awesome Roll and the winter Dragon roll, which i was a bit hesitant, but after he described that it was melted cheese on top of a California Roll with scallops on top, kinda baked but sure was tasty! as well as a bit spicey, which was awesome! they sure know how to start off with a bang--i was also comped a 5-piece portion of spicy tuna sashami, nicely sprinkled w/ black & regular sesame too. I'm usually not picky into the dishware at these places (like i would at a fine dining) but have to say, i was impressed, same for the soya dishes, not those cheap white round ones, haha... Nice & clear decor too. read more

This was my experience at Dunbar Sushi After leaving my house for a walk, I felt the anxiously familiar feeling of a low blood sugar passing over me (I have Type 1 Diabetes, If you are unfamiliar, this means that a low blood sugar can lead to seizures or death if untreated.) I reached for my supplies only to realize I had left them at home. I started to panic, but was quickly calmed by the flashing light of a sushi restaurant not half a block in front of me. I walked in to see a beverage cooler housing soft drinks behind the counter. "Perfect," I thought to myself. I sighed with relief as he put the chilled can down on the counter. "$1.87" he said. I replied, "on card." His face turned stern. "$5 minimum." "I don't have cash..." I looked at him, worry in my eyes over the outcome of this 'saviour.' "Too bad." I proceeded to tell him my scenario. How I had type 1 diabetes, how I had no low sugar supplies on me, and how I desperately needed his help. "Can you please sell this to me?" I pleaded. He turned, put the soda back in the fridge and said "sorry." Frustrated I walked out of the restaurant, ten minutes had now passed since I entered the establishment and I still hadn't had any sugar. I looked around in haste to see if I could find any other vendors close by but all I found in my line of sight were houses, trees, and a CrossFit gym. I rushed back inside. "Look," I said, "I am begging you right now. I am having a medical emergency, and I am terrified of it going any further. Please. I really need your help. I don't want to seize on your floor or end up in the hospital. Please just sell me this soda." --This next part is something I will probably never forget for the rest of my life-- He smirked, looked at me, and said "If you need sugar so bad, go find a pharmacy." My soul dropped dead at that moment. I kid you not. I didn't feel fear. I didn't feel pain or sadness. I felt nothing. I turned to leave the store in shock, unsure of what I should do next. Do I concede to this person and buy food from his business? Do I have any other choice? I felt disgusted knowing I might have to support his restaurant after what he just said to me. Before I could make a decision I felt a tap on my shoulder. "There's a pharmacy just 2 blocks down if you can make it." A woman said to me with concern on her face. "Thank you," I said in earnest, "so much." She gave me directions and I rushed to the pharmacy where they were sympathetic of my situation. 20 minutes after entering that store is when I finally got the medical help I needed, which I remind you was just any form of sugar. I always carry my supplies with me everywhere I go, no matter what i'm doing, but this story is a good example of how easily one can make a mistake. I never thought I'd be in a situation like this if I'm being honest. More than anything I feel betrayed and disgusted. I'm lucky that there really was a pharmacy down the road. I'm lucky that woman was kind enough to tell me. The next person might not be so lucky, no matter what their illness. TL;DR: Type 1 Diabetic had a medical emergency and asked them for help. Wouldn't help unless I bought food from them. Quoted "policy" read more

Love their spicy tuna sashimi! Sometimes when I get the sashimi it's still partially frozen which is why I give a 4 stars rather than 5. Their takoyaki is excellent and same with the rolls I've tried in the past. read more

I meet up with 2 friends after work at Dunbar sushi for some food. I've been eyeing this place since I moved back to the Dunbar area and finally had a chance to give this place a try. I wasn't sure if I should expect super good sushi or meh sushi. And somehow it ended up In between good and meh. The spicy sauce for the spicy salmon sashimi was pretty tasty, I would eat that again. The chicken karage was okay... Didn't come with a dip so I ended up dipping it in the spicy sashimi sauce. The miso soup was pretty good, tasty and not watered down. Rest of the food looked/tasted okay. Seeing how I love a block and a half away from here I can see myself coming back when I'm too lazy to cook. If you're in the area and want sushi give it a go but it's not anything that's going wow your pants off. read more

A fairly high quality sushi place! The decor is a bit bland and the place is empty most of the day, but the sushi is good value - portions are large for the price and yet the sushi is fresh and good quality (I had nigiri with a miso soup and both were quite filling, although the miso was nothing to write home about). Overall a good place to fill up if you are in the mood for non all-you-can-eat sushi in Kitsilano! read more

Awesome little local sushi join! Great for quick food. Feel like a family member going in.

Never too packed, I think they're more known for a take out spot. I went and got their sushi sashimi don, and found a piece of plastic on the salmon. I pointed it out to the waitress who spoke to the chef, who told me it was fish skin (???) and to not worry about it. An acknowledgement would have been nice, as it was clearly a clear piece of plastic, cut with scissors. I won't be returning. read more

YES! Dunbar sushi recognizes me on the phone... I've decided that this is a good thing, though. Since as a new business, they entice returning customers with samples of edamame and veggie dumplings! I always get a yam tempura and an avocado roll, can't go wrong. The best part of being a "regular" is the staff greeting you by name with friendly smiles when you come to pick up your sushi after a long day at work or classes. It would be nice to have brown rice option and maybe some more unique rolls, however this is a perfect addition to Dunbar and 16th! A convenient, quality sushi joint that uses fresh ingredients and has great essential sushi rolls, and is superbly priced, Dunbar Sushi is straight-up great. read more

Such nice ppl who work there! Service is actually genuine and want to make your meal and time special and worth. Sushi doesn't fall apart like other places :) also for ppl who like agedashi tofu, this place has seriously one of the best ones in Vancouver!!! read more

This is a decent place. I ordered the basic avocado and cumber roll. It is close to my best friend's house and it suits both our dietary needs, therefore, this was a win win situation for the both of us. Lots of seating, prices are decent and the customer service was awesome. It does get busy on the weekends since there aren't a lot of sushi places in the hood, however, turn around is reasonably timely. read more

My favourite Vancouver sushi spot- the awesome roll is very aptly named. All the rolls are fresh and tasty. Lovely, kind staff. I look forward to my visits here! read more

After a friend's recommendation and after reading reviews on Yelp, I decided to try Dunbar sushi. It's a quiet little place just on 16th and dunbar you would probably miss it if it weren't for neon signs in the window. The interior is quite small. the tables are really close together, but not too close for comfort. The wait staff is really friendly, very attentive and they came right away to serve tea. the service was quick, I didn't have to wait long for my food to arrive after ordering. I ordered the spicy salmon sashimi, ebi sunomono, appetizer tempura, and a crunchy roll. The spicy salmon sashimi was delicious. It tasted fresh, with the right amount of sauce and spice. I've had other spicy salmon sashimi that was either overwhelmed with sauce or not enough spice, but this one was delicious. It's served on a bed of spring mixed greens, which gives it a really nice touch of freshness as well. The ebi sunomono salad was your typical ebi sunomono. Fresh tasting with just the right amount of sweet and vinegar. The appetizer tempura was delish! It came out crispy and not drenched in oil. It was the perfect temperature, so I know that it wasn't sitting on the counter for a while before it came out to me. The veggies were not over deep-fried. They still had a nice crunch to them and didn't get all soggy. Finally, the crunch roll. The crunch roll is basically a dynamite roll with tempura flakes on top (Just like the description says). The crunch roll is a decent sized roll. Not too big where you can't eat it in one bite, but not too small where you're wondering where the rest of it is. All in all, it was a nice experience, and is definitely go again (Just not between 2-4pm when all the school kids come rushing in bumping you with their back-packs). read more

ordered california roll, spicy tuna and assorted tuna and salmon sashimi to go. price $19.69 including tax. roll sizes were decent, but the tuna and salmon sashimi for $10.95 was spectacular! 4 pcs salmon and 4 pcs tuna. large size and very fresh, excellent quality. order the sashimi - you won't be disappointed. note - included in the order was a small box with a handful of lettuce and a citrus dressing. read more

I have had my best sushi in vancouver here. Try the caterpillar roll. It is amazing. The service is good. Not great for big groups. It is a small place. Price is reasonable. read more

Sushi was only ok. Convenient and fast, but not a top choice in the neighbourhood. However, a very friendly staff!

This business refused to help a diabetic having a low blood sugar today. All this person needed was fast acting sugar like juice or pop This is a life and death situation for folks with type one diabetes and the worker laughed and told him to go to a pharmacy unless he wanted to pay their five dollar minimum. Why support a business that turns their back on people in need? I won't. read more

Didn't try the sushi, but their veggie udon had too few ingredients other than a bunch of onions. I ordered carry-out so don't know if there's anything to do with that, or if they were just short of veggies at that moment. read more

Probably my favourite sushi joint in the area. It's clean inside. Sushi is fresh and fast. They are generous with their freebies right now with it being fairly new. Prices are reasonable. I've been there twice in two weeks so far. Servers are very polite and prompt. read more

After going to Dunbar sushi for the first time, I forgot that there are a zillion other sushi places in Vancouver. The number of times I've been there got out of hand a long ago. They have a very welcoming staff besides their perfect food. Caterpillar roll is my go to order here, although ocean roll is my favorite. All the other rolls that I've tried are as amazing. Like their crunch roll and even their regular dynamite roll. read more

Honestly the best Sushi place in Vancouver, very good customer service and run by very nice people

You can't get better than this in our neighbourhood! We've tried every sushi joint in the Kits/Dunbar area and you can't beat the price and freshness of Dunbar Sushi. While I was waiting for our order I watched the Chef work his magic and you can tell he takes pride in what he does. The sushi was placed neatly in the containers and the rolls were rolled with love and care. The Agedashi Tofu was delicious, the fish fresh and the sushi rice seasoned. We'll be back! read more

Came on a Saturday at 12:30 and we were their only patrons. I ordered a california roll and my bf ordered a teriyaki chicken don and 4 pieces of salmon nigiri. The california roll ($3.95) was substantial, with lots of imitation crab -- more than usual places with the same price tags -- jullianed strips of cucumber and a small piece of avocado. There was good rice to filling ratio, but the rice seemed a little on the gummy/wet side for some reason. His teriyaki chicken don wasn't anything special: chicken was tender and saucy but a bit thin, the rice was drenched in sauce, and way too many bean sprouts for our liking; the bowl was huge but consisted of a lot bean sprouts. We only came here because it was close to where he gets a haircut. We wouldn't come again if we were in the mood for sushi. read more

This place has gone downhill. I love their food, and it was my favourite sushi place for a long time. But recently their service is terrible. Be prepared to wait at least half an hour for your pick up order. One weekend I called for take-out and was told the wait was 1.5 hours, what a joke. They clearly need more staff in the kitchen or something. Oh, and do not go during the Lord Byng high school lunch hour, because the place gets so packed with students you will be forgotten about by the server. read more

I am lucky enough to live close to Dunbar Sushi. They are great and the food is wonderful. You won't go wrong here!
