Met up with a fellow Yelp Elite for lunch on a weekday. We got there early and were seated immediately. Opted for the sushi and sashimi lunch special Bento Box. Wow. The presentation and taste of each of the dishes was great and, at $27, it was good value considering the amount of food. The service was quite good and our tea and water were refilled regularly. It was a very positive food experience and happy to recommend O Sushi if on Granville and looking for sushi.
Had a lovely lunch the over day at O Sushi. The menu is quite extensive, various options of rolls and other Japanese dishes. I tried the aburi rainbow rolls and it was a success. I'm a big fan of any aburi sushi in general and this one this was quite tasty. Service is fast and easy. I'll be back.
Great service and good food (interesting combination - my Amazing Spider Roll featuring coconut and Unagi Roll). Clean bathroom. Only minus was that the seats are SUPER hard and uncomfortable even when padded by my coat. Maybe it is a deterrent for the laptop crowd but people might eat more if they want to hang out for a while!
The service was super. Place was clean. Food was served hot and fresh and in a wonderful display. I had the vegetarian option of tofu and sweet potato tempura. The batter on that was the best I ever had. Affordable.
Highly recommend their aburi rainbow roll!! You get 8 different types of fillings/flavors. Truly a rainbow their tempura was also good. Make sure to also reserve for a spot! They get pretty full and busy. You can call them to reserve a table. The servers there were also very kind.
I came here for dinner on a Friday. It was fairly empty but the place is huge! And so is their menu (but their prices on their website differs to their actual menu). I ordered a few things. I will note, their food is not uber fresh and pretty pricey for the quality of food! I got the TOFU - Mozza Agedashi (Deep Fried Organic Tofu and Mozzarella cheese with Tempura Sauce). The tofu to mozzarella is even but the tofu is too thick for my liking. And the sauce made the tofu soggy. Then I got the GOMA-AE - Organic Kale with Black Sesame Dressing. This was disgusting. The kale was not fresh and the sauce did not taste good. I got the Brussel Sprout Tempura (6 brussels). The Brussel Sprouts pieces were huge and lacked any flavor (even salting them before frying would have taken it to another level). I asked for hot sauce and was charged $1.00 for siracha. Lastly, I got the Yam Roll. It was not very fresh and basic. They had 2 waiters and the service was very fast! This came to $40. For the quality of food, this is crazy to me. I would pass on this one!
Don't judge this place by the storefront. It looked dodgy from outside but inside it was nicely done up. Renovated and such. There are regular tables and chairs in the front part of the restaurants. Towards the back, the tables are smaller with high stools and meant for max 2 diners at each table. The prices have gone up drastically when you compared them against older menu pictures in Yelp. But I think the food selection and decor have also changed. The set lunch bento, now known as teishoku, starts from $18 for the tofu version and to $24 for sushi and sashimi version. I had the sushi and sashimi teishoku. It was beautifully plated and had a bit of everything. Everything was very fresh and delicious. The fried items were not overly greasy. It was not super filling but the portion was enough to keep you at maybe 70-80% full. I deducted 1 star off for the poor service. It was not busy when I was there with plenty of tables available. But I was automatically led to the back tables with the high stools just because I was dining alone. I requested for the regular table as I'm short and high chairs or stools are my enemies. Then I noticed other customers who came in after me, even single diner, were not brought to the back to be seated. When these actions happened, you start to wonder why. Service wise, they only focus on bigger groups or people who ordered a lot. They went to those tables frequently to refill their tea. Nobody took notice of me and other diners nearby. Finally one server came over to top up my water glass. They didn't even bother with the diners next to me (they each ordered 1 roll, maybe the servers think that's too little?). Only eager to clear their plates. Service on the whole is not great. At the speed they try to clear the dishes, it is on par with a typical Chinese restaurant which tend to clear your plates even when you are still eating. Quite a pity as the place is really beautifully done up and the quality of food is there. The staff pretty much ruin the dining experience. Not a place to linger chatting with friends when done eating.
Oh O Sushi...considering you're in the Canadian city with probably the best sushi around, it's hard to compete. And while you did quite a few things right, it also wasn't anything to write home about. So I give you a perfectly average rating. The biggest sin though was the seafood udon. Not terrible, but you gave us a whole squid in the udon. Like the WHOLE thing...squid beak and organs intact. That was kinda uncool...and also inedible. Otherwise, the food was alright and the service was pretty good. The Chirashi Don had a lot of fresh seafood and West Coast Combo was fine. But when the things I remember about you most are the squid guts and stellar ginger ale selection, a 3-star rating seems just about right.
While I was waiting for my takeout order I was reading the menu, and what stood out for me was the detail in the menu and healthy options (see pics). I know this sounds a bit weird, but the menu was very attractive, as it made it so easy and appealing to order. Their food items and sushi rolls were very creative and actually came with descriptions as to what was in it, which is helpful. Not all sushi places have that and you have to ask the server...what's in this and what's in that..... Loved the healthy alternatives.....GMO free, Organic, Free range etc....awesome. Vancouver is filled with amazing Sushi places, so there's not much to say....I liked it....their Sushi was fresh and appropriately proportioned (see pic). The right amount of salmon to avocado to rice. The right amount of salmon to avocado to cream cheese to rice. This sounds like a no-brainer....I know, but it counts....I've been to sushi places where they try to save a buck by replacing the serving of salmon with rice and the serving of avocado with cream cheese. With these guys I got what I paid for. I mean I've been to a couple of sushi places where I ordered the Philadelphia roll (salmon, avocado and cream cheese), where the majority of the roll was just cream cheese and literally a slither of salmon and a tiny cube of avocado. It all comes down to how much expertise the sushi chef practices and how ethical the management of the place is toward their guests. Even though the service was decent, I think it could use improvement. I waited too long for my couple of rolls, and at the end I asked about my order to find out it had been sitting there all along. But, I liked their sushi and the location is great!
We walked by and decided to try this place out. We were sat down immediately at the front table which is great for people watching. We didn't like the cauliflower dish but I really liked the Ume shisho leaf roll. It's a great casual place when you want a sit down meal.
The sushi was delicious, although a little pricy. There were a lot of choices on the menu from traditional rolls to their own special rolls.

Such a nice spot with a super friendly atmosphere! We absolutely loved the lady who helped us -- she was so kind and welcoming. It was pretty busy since we went during lunchtime, and a little warm inside, but they opened the door to help cool things down, which we really appreciated. I ordered the avocado roll and the spicy tuna roll, and both were delicious. The portions were much bigger than expected, so even though I wanted to order more, I was already full! And the mango ice cream was EXTREMELY good -- easily one of my favorite desserts from the trip. Creamy, refreshing, and the perfect ending to lunch. read more
Nice little spot in downtown Vancouver. I wish they had some more gf options on the menu but nonetheless we enjoyed eating here. Service was quick. The rainbow roll my husband got looked so good!! The portion of the mushroom tempura was massive. You get 4 big pieces and it can be done gf. In retrospect we shouldn't have gotten it because we got too many rolls...Highly recommend the mango roll. read more
I went to this place for dinner with a friend before going to the Orpheum. The outside front wasn't much to look at and I thought it was going to be small inside, but I was pleasantly surprised. The inside was a lot more spacious than I thought. Reservations are appreciated, but they do take walk-ins. Place is nice with tables evenly spaced out. Service is friendly. They didn't have a bento box menu for dinner so we ordered two rolls (Coco Crunch) and the tempura udon. The menu was extensive, but nothing stood out. The tempura udon was fair for $22/ no tax. read more

I had a fantastic katsu experience here today. I wasn't expecting much since it's a sushi place, but it was more memorable than other katsu places. If you're in downtown, I recommend stopping by here and having a special experience like mine. read more

If you're looking for a good sushi alternative located in the heart of Downtown Vancouver, I'd recommend this place. My servers are nice and friendly. I love their choice of music as well! This sushi place also opens pretty late. read more

This was walking distance from our hotel. We are big time sushi lovers and this restaurant does not disappoint. The sushi was very good. We haven had toro in a while and they had it! So creamy and delicious. We also had the Granville, salmon belly, other sashimi, salmon/avocado row and lastly we had pork and kimchi gyoza. All was delicious! Would go back! If I lived her this would be my Friday night go to. read more

Food was delicious and the customer service is great! My grandparents ordered a tempura udon and a pork katsu and both say 5/5 on taste and presentation! I definitely recommend and will definitely return when I return to Vancouver. read more

Este restaurante de sushi es excepcional. La frescura de los productos se nota en cada bocado, el servicio es impecable y la presentación de los platos es una obra de arte. Una experiencia culinaria inigualable. Estoy comiendo el Aburi rainbow roll y tomando cerveza Hitachino nest This sushi restaurant is simply exceptional. The freshness of the ingredients is evident in every bite; the fish and seafood are of the highest quality. The service is impeccable, with staff always attentive and friendly. Additionally, the presentation of the dishes is a work of art - each roll is a blend of flavors and colors that delight both the eyes and the palate. Without a doubt, an unmatched culinary experience. I'm eating the Aburi rainbow roll and I'm drinking the hitachino nest beer. read more

Somethings were great here and some were just so so. I came here for lunch with my colleague. I was surprised how the inside of the restaurant looks like. The outside looks not so nice but inside was clean and bright. The service here was so so. I got the Sushi Bento. It came with Teriyaki Chicken, Nigiri sushi, salad, one tiny chicken drumstick and 4 pieces of California sushi. Yes it doesn't come with miso soup. Prices here are not that great. They were not super busy either. My colleague ordered just for himself and his bill came to $41 before tips. Kind of pricy. For the bento box mine was $14 before tips. Portion was small and it wasn't wow for my bento box. The teriyaki chicken was boiled chicken with sauce poured on top. I had a piece of my colleague's Angus beef tataki roll. It was quite good. Basically a California roll with beef on top. Overall this place was ok. read more

Osushi is a good restaurant. I love sushi and roll, so I've visited many different places, but I haven't found anywhere as good as here. It's fresh, the service is great, there are many different kinds, and the taste is incredibly delicious! Please come and try it. I don't regret it! read more
A very convenient spot for sushi downtown. They had a renovation in the past year or so, making their space more comfortable for guests. They now offer table service too, which is a nice change. My family often goes here for post shopping meals, which includes bento boxes and teriyaki bowls. It's pretty good value for the boxes since so many things are priced high downtown. I wanted to add that because this location is right on Georgie & Granville area, it does get busy and you should be prepared to line up during lunch and dinner times. read more

It was amazing experience in there! My school is nearby here, so I tried kastu don that I really missed to eat ever since I came to Canada. The food fully satisfied me, staffs were super friendly and kind! Undoubtedly amazing customer service. I will definitely come back to try other food here read more

I really hate writing bad reviews but this was completely unacceptable. I am not a fan of eggshells in my rice. I had two bites with a mouthful of eggshells, spat out the rest, and really couldn't eat this. I dug around and found even more eggshells. I called in to replace my take out order / request a refund because of this error. There was a lot of back and forth on how to rectify this. Having proof of the eggshells, I was eventually able to exchange my meal for something of equal value and I actually left them a tip from my original order, not knowing that this would transpire. In the end, they did not offer me anything for the trouble. I had to make two trips just for one meal and had to make up for the lost time after returning back to work. I had visited O Sushi twice prior to this but I will no longer be returning here. Sad and disappointing. read more

Great, easy place for sushi. Location is super convenient, prices are good, quality is good, food comes out fast! It's not fancy or high quality place but it's great for what it is I recommend the bento boxes! Grab a table when you enter, grab some menus from the cashier and you can sit back down to choose what you want. Go up to order and pay and they give you a buzzer for when your food us ready. Simple and efficient process! read more

Didn't know there was sushi in this area until now. Parking here is horrendous. The inside is very clean and modern. This place is more like a cafeteria-style fast food joint though. Your food comes on a tray, and you have to pick it up. The salmon and tuna chirashi bowl I had had generous portions of fish, and tasted great. However, half the rice portion was actually just shredded daikon. It came with a miso soup though, which is nice. Not the best deal at $10, but you're downtown after all. The quality is definitely decent, if you don't mind paying a buck or two more. read more
