    They have very economical lunch box options for the weekday. The tempura was a bit oily but the portion was big. The portions for chicken were also big. the udon comes with soup but we asked for it separate just an FYI Overall pretty worth for weekday lunch. Three boxes enough for 5 people

    Tasty sushi place in the middle of Burnaby Heights. Parking is available on Hastings, as well as the side streets and the city owned lots. The place is nice and cozy. Japanese theme with the wood trim. Staff are friendly. I'm not sure if they're Japanese. (I think they're Chinese?) They have a pretty solid lunch bento box selection. I had their sashimi bento with teriyaki beef. The tuna was fine but the salmon tasted off. Knock one star off. In hindsight, I should've probably said something instead of eating it anyways. Hopefully that was a one time thing. The rest of the bento was fine. Wouldn't mind coming back at some point. Hopefully they fix the salmon problem.

    Are you looking for a good sushi around Hastings Heights? This is a great option. The Shen Sushi is a small restaurant, well decorated with an amazing menu. The photos on the menu will help you a lot, but the servers were amazing. She was super friendly, recommended their chefs suggestions and more. Their food set is enough for one and it was so yummy! Loved every single of sushi piece that I ate. Their Nigiri and money pocket are really good option. Loved their miso soup with shitake!! Their sushi was so fresh and so yummy. It is hard to highlight my favourite meal from that place. I did have a great time. Since this restaurant is small, I recommend you will go there earlier or you will wait in line. Cheers

    Lunch on Good Friday took us to Shen Sushi and wow, this place is an absolute gem! We ordered a mix of both modern and traditional items from the menu. My husband had a bento box that came with Miso soup, Chicken Teriyaki, California Roll and some Tempura. Our daughter had the B.C. Combo (Dynamite Roll, B.C. Roll and California Roll), and I had Veggie Pocket & Unagi Mini Rice Brick. The Veggie Pocket & Unagi Mini Rice Brick were so different from anything I've had in any other Japanese restaurant. Such creative fare at Shen Sushi and flawlessly executed as well. My Unagi Mini Rice Brick was a brick of rice as the name implies, but it was battered and fried like Tempura. It was wonderfully crispy as was everything else on the table that was battered and fried. (ie. Tempura in my husband's s Bento Box, and the salmon skin in the B.C. Roll) Veggie Pocket was bursting with flavour, especially paired with the Mango Sauce; I loved the presentation. It was a very creative way to use an Inari wrap compared with the standard Inari Nigiri that we find at most Japanese restaurants. Fans of "Spirited Away" will recognize a certain character who can be found in quite a few places throughout the restuarant. There's a mini claw machine there where you can try your luck at winning a candy, for just 25 cents. Our daughter gave it a try. She wasn't able to pick up anything with the machine but they still gave her a candy in the end! There was also an Easter Egg hunt set up in the restaurant. We had fun finding and photographing all of the eggs! Service: Good Parking: Free Location: 4219 Hastings St, Burnaby

    So shen sushi opened and repace a ramen shop. It used to be a good ramen shop but i think it wasnt that busy. Shen sushi was okay. It tried to be upscale but it didnt reach my level of what i call a good sushi. Got the dinner set b and c. The tempura was terrible. The sauce was too sweet and the batter was bad. Thr sashimi was frozen yet thick. The rests were pretty much basic stuff. It served a lot of stuff like korean sushi restaurant though but its a chinese sushi restaurant. Cheers!

Their hainan chicken rice combo is a great combo that can satisfy a few people. Chicken is tender and pairs well with the sauce. Also got the mee goreng. The stir fried noodles were really good, although a bit oily. Definitely a treat to get every so often! Roti canai is a classic appetizer to get! Staff can get quite busy and won't have time to check in on you during busy times.

They were busy as usual and we were at the end of our meal. I went to the bathroom, my husband was still at the table, paying the bill. When I came back, he had my purse and jacket in his hands and was at the door. The boss lady didn't event wait for me to come back to the table before she kicked us out. It just didn't feel right. I know they were busy, but we were there first, didn't skimp on ordering a full meal and we were not dawdling. We had actually made a reservation. We will not be back for a while. Too bad because we miss the food. We will be looking for alternative places to dine in where we are valued customers.

Service here is pretty quick and friendly, and makes it a nice place to catch up. Chicken is fantastic and quite reasonably priced. Quite consistent and an easy option to default to. Lots of people get take out, so you'll most likely be one of the few tables there. Recommend giving it a try!

    Finally got to try this place out among a sea of other Korean fried chicken places in the vicinity…read more Parking is available on Hastings, as well as the side streets. The inside is pretty modern. Staff are friendly and chatty. What sets this place apart is their special fried chicken. Most other places just dump some random sauce out of the bottle, but for the special flavours here, there is actually some substance to the sauce. For the Gangnam style, the sauce contains actual pieces of sauteed onions and jalapenos. This was super delicious. Special mention. Definitely worth the slight premium. Buddy and I also had the Hot Spicy one. The menu shows 4 chili peppers (supposedly super spicy), but it wasn't that spicy at all. There was a nice bit of heat for sure, but was nowhere near the intensity for melting one's face off. In other words, do not expect anything like hot wings at a western pub. This flavour is also recommended. I would say this is my new favourite KFC. I would even put it above my usual go-to place (350F). We have a new winner. Highly recommended.

    11:15 am on a tuesday and it wasn't too busy, making it an easy place to settle in and enjoy a meal…read morewithout competing with the noise around you. the dining room has a warm, lived in feel with dark blue walls, exposed wood beams, tufted red banquettes, vintage style posters, and an open kitchen where you can catch a glimpse of the cooks at work. it's comfortable rather than polished, with a mix of families, retirees, and locals stopping in for lunch. the ceiling fans lazily spin overhead while the tv quietly plays in the background, adding to the relaxed neighbourhood vibe. x-site grill & bistro isn't trying to be trendy, and that's part of its charm. if you're looking for good food, generous portions, and prices that don't make you do a double take, this place is worth a visit. we shared the grilled chicken pesto sandwich ($14.95), served open faced on french bread with homemade pesto and melted mozzarella. the chicken was tender, the pesto tasted fresh, and the toasted bread held up well without becoming too crunchy. it came with a fresh side of garden salad and a few potatoes topped with sour cream, which rounded out the meal nicely. even split between two people, it was enough to satisfy. the lunch specials are where the value really shines. starting at just $8.95, there are plenty of choices, including chicken souvlaki, although you'll need to order a beverage to get the special. even with that requirement, it's hard to find a better deal these days. there are also daily drink specials if you're stopping by later in the day. no flashy gimmicks, no over the top presentation, just honest comfort food, friendly service, and the kind of neighbourhood restaurant that reminds you why independent diners are still worth seeking out. sometimes simple done well is exactly what you're craving.
