I've been there. Friday. Saturday (I went Sunday. Oops they close on Sundays) and I went there Tuesday. Today. They have the thickest slices of sashimi. Fresh not fishy. Their rolls are very huge and filling. And their cones are amazing. Not skimpy. Their prices are phenomenal. Full sashimi (7) and a cone was $22 I will say this. Don't judge them if they are slow to serve. I went first day. And tea right away and food and bill. Perfect. Second time I went no tea and no one take order. I had to go up and tell the sushi chef and it seems they were handling a big order. Tables left uncleaned. People all standing waiting for a clean table. If I had seen this as my first visit I might of never gone back. But because I've seen it when it's slow. I get it. It appears to be run by a couple. And just them. So. They only have one pair of hands. I highly recommend this place. read more

Frankly I'm not sure how the quality is now anymore, but when Jun was running it, they had the best unagi don I've ever had. This year, I came back from Unafuji in Nagoya, considered one of the best unagi places in the world. I had blue eel. And I still feel like Jun's unagi don was better because of the vinegared rice and whole recipe he used. I had HITSUMABUSHI and I found it UNDERWHELMING after coming back. Additionally, the best agedashi tofu I've ever had. I honestly have no idea what he did to it to make it that texture and the sauce that good. I've had a lot of agedashi tofu in vancouver and it's 95% all mid in comparison. Sometimes the unagi was a little charred but it was fine, and the huge portion for $15 was HUGE value back in the day. Now everyone wants $25 for unagi don for 3/4ths the size Jun used to serve it. I remember the speed was slow back then but the quality was worth it to me. I cannot attest to the quality of the raw fish bc I don't like raw fish much. I had really good sushi in Japan but, yeah, Jun's was still my favourite. I plan to come back soon to try the food now. I really hope it's still going to give me that magic. read more

I love the sushi here, its fresh, you get thick slices of sashimi and its affordable. The service is great, and the people working are always so kind. I dont tend to eat in the resturant but its very cute and clean. Its in a good area aswell. read more

Came by on a friends recommendation to try their sushi. I got their wild salmon set ($15). I thought the sushi wasn't bad but the service was really bad. When I went in, I was the only customer but was basically ignored even though I was starving at the time. They seemed more concerned with their take out orders than the customer in front of them. Food wasn't bad and not too expensive either but I wouldn't go back because of the poor service. read more

Had stop by as we drove by and we were very hungry but we are so glad we did. I didn't even need to check the reviews as you felt welcomed right away.We both ordered the chicken teriyaki bento box and what a deal for $15 and change per person with miso soup. We were served the soup to warm ourselves up. Not fancy but really fresh and tasty. The restaurant is very cozy and feels like you are visiting a family home.The owner has international experience and moved to give him and his family a better life. Yes the owner Charlie and his wife are running this small business themselves so it does get busy. Be patient, my parents ran a restaurant so it's understandable. Asian are more about efficiency than small talk. It's the little places and hidden gems that I love. We will be back! The forner owners before them retired. Hope they can survive these trying times. read more

One line review: Surprisingly good. A friend and I ate 'in' their smallish dining area. They apparently do a good bit of takeout business. We had: - Roll combo - Regular combo Their sushi was beautiful and carefully done -- a pleasant surprise at this price point. We were very pleased with our lunch. The service was unremarkable but adequate. We walked over, but I think the parking on that part of Broadway is free, and that would certainly be true in the neighbourhood. Bottom line: I'll definitely be back. I've already been back for a takeout platter and consider this my favourite sushi spot in that area. read more

It's very good. The owner brought creds from posh restaurants internationally to Canada to join family & simplify life. So you'll find high quality basics in a small blessedly quiet homey space. Affordable too. Relax & enjoy. read more

Inside out: The place is small and parking is typical for downtown. It's very clean with clear menus and great prices. There is plenty of seating. The staff: super friendly and helpful, fast service. I came in with a friend and we were greeted and served quickly. The food: prices and quality both decent, I loved the veggie roll selection! Sorry for a short review but it is simple to say it's a wonderful place to catch a meal! read more

My favourite place to order sushi in Kitsilano. The owners are very friendly and appear to recognize regulars. The place has limited seating so it may be difficult to dine in during their busy hours. The portions sizes are good and for a sushi place in Kitsilano, quite affordable. read more

Our usual sushi joint (Hitoe Sushi on 4th) was closed today, so we got takeout from here. We ordered several rolls, some salmon and tuna sashimi, and some miso soups. Oberall this was a dissapointing experience, and I can't believe this place has 3.5 stars in a city like Vancouver, where we have many sushi places of generally high quality. The rolls are extremely rice-heavy, and have only tiny thin strips of fish inside. It's hard to distinguish the rolls from each other, as they all taste the same - like rice. The rolls look like those you would pick up from a refrigerator case at Safeway or the airport. The sashimi pieces were very, very small - about 1/3 of the size we are used to getting at Hitoe, but at the same price. Unfortunately I can't recommend this place at all. For those who have left the positive reviews, I can only recommend that you get out to some of the other options in the neighborhood. Jun is in a league below any of the other sushi restaurants in the area. There are dozens of better sushi spots within a short walk or drive in basically any direction. read more

A hole in the wall place which we were pleasantly surprised with. We honestly heading somewhere else and walked by this one and went in because it was cold. Whatever the reason, we were glad. What a discovery. We had basic rolls - dynamite, spicy salmon, and yam and all were really good. We also had the gyoza which made in house and so tasty. No disappointment at all and the bonus was the price. When was the last time you paid under $5.00 for a roll? Very very affordable. It was so worth it and we would highly recommend. read more

Went here on a Sunday afternoon and it was empty. I was prob the first customer of the day. The reason I decided to check this place out were the positive reviews and affordable prices. They have a wide variety of selections, including the lunch specials. I liked how they had posted photos of the most common/popular items ordered on a wall. Appropriate seatings for the size of the restaurant I had their spicy agedashi tofu + deep fried spicy tuna roll (new). I really enjoyed the tofu except for the spiciness level. I assumed it would some how be incorporated within the tofu or the sauce but it was literally just siracha added on top - and for this reason, they charged an additional 0.25$ because there's also the nonspicy agedashi tofu. And I saw hot sauce on another table just sitting there - it's not the money but the principal and quality of the dish I'm upset about. Another thing I was surprised to see was the presentation of the tofu - all of them served inside the dipping sauce. It was odd at first but I think it worked because the crispiness of the tofu absorbsed the sauce which gave it a flavour The deep fried spicy tuna roll - I was surprised to see the tuna being cooked for this dish. For some reason, I was expecting the tuna to be raw and only the roll deep fried. Because I was expecting something raw, I didn't like this dish overall. But I think that if I knew it was cooked fish, it would have tasted good read more

It's honestly a shame that the first photo of this place that pops up is of one person's bad experience because the owners and food here is great. This is my boyfriend and I's favorite reasonably priced sushi spot in Vancouver and we've always had great service and food. They will deliver to you for free if your order is at least $45. They only use wild salmon but don't charge extra for it, which is a big plus for me. I wouldn't recommend it as a sit-down place if that's what you're looking for as it's fairly small on the inside, but even if you're just inside waiting to pick up your order they will give you hot tea which is a nice bonus. Recommendations: 1. The veggie combo box is delicious!! 2. Any of the combo boxes will get you the most out of your money as you get 12-15 pieces of sushi for ~$8 3. The red/white dragon rolls are some of their pricier rolls but are absolutely delicious read more

Overall, decent sushi rolls for the best value I've seen at a Japanese place in Vancouver. Great for a snack or for providing quantity to fill you up. -------- Visited this place after visiting UBC on the West side looking for a light snack. This place was a small mom and pop shop with their entire menu posted on the wall in picture form, which helped us decide on the Special #1, 17pcs of sushi rolls (dynamite, tuna, salmon, avocado) for only $8.50!! Best value in Japanese food I've seen in Vancouver. The rice was done well with just the right amount of vinegar and texture. The 5pc dynamite roll did indeed come with 2 pieces of shrimp tempura. They also had a $23 roll platter featuring over 100 pcs of sushi rolls (half vegetarian) that I would totally get if I had a party to share with. read more

Simply Sushi  Bar - group of sunflowers in pots - Japanese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

This place had the distinct air of being a neighbourhood secret despite being on Broadway. Outside is just a plain white sign with red lettering, suggesting it's just another one of those plain old take out Japanese restaurants that you so commonly see. Inside the deception continues as the walls are decorated purely of photos and prices of their various offerings. Another one of those places where you simply order off the wall. Service is very friendly and it seems like they know all the neighbourhood folks that run through here. After you place your order the magic begins. At first you might feel a little irritated, it takes a little longer than most places. However that is all forgiven when each plate is brought out with the most delicate care. That same attention seems to have been placed in the creation of each roll, each cone and basically every dish. Unlike most places where the photos look better than the food, this place needs a better photographer as the food is far fresher and better looking than any of their pictures convey. read more

solid 3.5 stars, though obviously i haven't been back since i posted those pics lol. Which means, better than average sushi, and decent prices. It's a small place, nothing pretty inside but clean, so not really a date material place. Not authentic in terms of japanese owned. plenty of metered parking all around, though there's still free parking along the side streets. read more

This place is ran by Chinese. Not authentic but very cheap. a bento box is $8. The place is not busy and the service is not that great. We were one of the 2 tables and it took them awhile to take our order. The restaurant only had two people. the chef making the sushi and I believe its his wife taking the order. Don't think I will ever go back. read more

I had the dynamite roll box and this was delicious. The dynamite roll was just the right amount of cold, the teriyaki chicken was excellent and so was the tempura and salad. The great thing about this dynamite roll was that they use 2, count them...2 prawn tempura's instead of the normal one in a dynamite roll! The place might be a little dingy, but the food was very good and delicious and very inexpensive. read more

Big fan of Jun Sushi. This owner-operated location is a little small and I wouldn't sit in for a meal but their takeout quality and value is great! Most lunch boxes are around 9 bucks and are well-rolled and fresh. I have tried a bento box here as well, I'm not a huge fan of deep friend anything but their food is less oily out of the frier. Miso soup is loaded with tofu and not too salty. Not the best I've had but definitely worth trying out. I recommend the Special A, great variety of rolls that will fill you up for the cost of a Subway sandwich! read more

Simply Sushi Bar was formerly Jun Sushi. Jun ran it for 30+ years and sold to new owners in 2021. So far the new owners are doing a good job, however, before all fish was wild caught whereas now you must ask spicifically for wild otherwise they serve farmed. The agadashi tofu is still light and crunchy. read more

The sushi was good, the sashimi was better, the price was nice, not having to wait one minute, that was the best!!!! We went to try the Eatery too loud for what we looking for tonight and we had no reservations so we're out. Green Leaf across the street, 45 minute wait, we were with the girls so we're out. Walked into Jun because there was no wait, no one in there really, I think they do most of their biz to go. In short, sushi was decent because the fish was good but the rice was alright, not spectacular. But the Sashimi was fantastic for the price, fantastic. Eat in, no wait. Cheap Sashimi that is excellent makes me forget all the rest. Eat here give it 4 star, be happy. read more

Obsessed! Bit of an odd observation but they slice the veg for the rolls just the way I like, reminds me of home. Mad spot, definitely worth the wait, the trip, the money. read more

this is a small sushi place along W.Broadway. While Green Leaf gets all the line-ups, this is equally good, if not better. They have a grill and a wider menu and it is ALWAYS good. it is also less expensive than other (more well-known) places. Check it out the next time you order sushi; you won't be disappointed :) read more

A small take away kinda place, Jun's ramen, udon, teriyaki and yakisoba menu picks are a cooked food compliment to the wild salmon serving assortment of sushi. Reasonably prices and free parking to boot, it's a decent quick fix. Being into cones right now, I set my sights on the avocado and salmon, and the BBQ Eel roll. Both were fantastic. Fresh fish, ripe avocados and the seaweed had the right amount of bite. My sunomono salad was amply stocked with shrimp, but I wouldn't say it was the freshest tasting. The vinegar and noodles though, were just the right amount of chill and chew. If this were my hood I could see myself becoming a regular. read more

Jun Sushi is an absolute staple in my family's eating rotation. When I was a little kid it was something pretty special to get sushi and that sushi was always from this little family run joint on Broadway. We first discovered this place because we used to go to the Blockbuster across the street but, needless to say, even after moving to a new part of the city, Jun Sushi remained on the radar. Everything that my predecessors have said is true: the food takes a little while but it is amazing and very fresh (go for a salmon or tuna cone!) Everything is done with care and that includes customer service. Some 10 years ago, the owner/sushi chef noticed that we were coming in so often that, during the winter holiday, he topped our meal off with a complimentary box of candy canes! That kind of personal attention is what makes small family restaurants so charming and it is what brings us back to Jun Sushi time and again. read more

Terrible sushi. They must have used a chainsaw to make it. The fish was destroyed. Rice with wrong texture. Lower than usual miserable sushi. read more

I'm pretty sure my office has paid Jun's rent a time or two... we go there a LOT. So after years of eating here, this is what I have to say: -Jun is cheap, but good quality. The fish is always fresh and the rice is always just right. Their prices are actually reasonable, a rare thing this far into Kits. -The owners are courteous and lovely. When they see me on the street they always remember me and say hello. -They have brown rice sushi, for the addition of 50 cents per roll. I was dubious until my bosses ordered it for me one day, and then I was converted. Try it out, it adds a delicious nutty background to the fish and is also a bit more filling... mmm. Overall, I'd say Jun is one of the better places this side of Macdonald. I've never had a meal there that I was unsatisfied with. The Bento boxes are a great deal, and they have no problems with me substituting rolls for other items. Delightful. read more

My go-to sushi spot. Eat here at least once a week. Great brown rice sushi (Yam tempura is my roll of choice) made by the same sushi chef every time. I've eaten at some of the fanciest sushi places in the city, but I think this small shop has most of them beat. read more

Ordered for pick up. Had chicken ramen which was lacking in vegetables and their special Jun roll which was super special because it came with someone else's hair! In more than one piece. Yuck! read more

I had Special #2 (6pcs B.C. Roll, 6psc Salmon Roll & 6pcs Tuna Roll) at least twice a week when I lived in the neighbourhood. I still go back whenever I visit Vancouver...and they remember me (and my order). The fish was always fresh and delicious. Not the fanciest joint but a great spot for inexpensive sushi. Oh, to get this quality of sushi in Montreal (never mind at this price). read more

Thanks yelpers for all your great reviews! That was the deciding factor on figuring out where to order sushi tonight for Valentine's dinner with my husband and kids. The fact that they deliver and have an online menu sealed the deal. At first I couldn't get through and felt defeated but my daughter and I headed down to the car and as soon as we started the engine she got through. Bingo! They were having a busy night which meant delivery was going to take longer but we were prepared to wait. Ordering for three teenagers and two adults means you need a lot. I tried to stick to the basics as they're not really into the super exotic ingredients. Here's what we got; 5 miso soup 1 edamame 1 pork gyoza - amazingly delicious 2 agedashi tofu 1 - $20 party tray (54 pieces assorted) 2 yam tempura rolls 2 spicy tuna rolls Everything was so fresh and delicious but those pork gyoza get extra special mention. I often judge a place by the strength of their wasabi and this stuff was KNOCKOUT! Everything got gobbled up and my sweethearts were all sated. With a decent tip this all worked out to under $13 per person! This is definitely going to be our go-to sushi delivery place from now on. read more

Service is incredibly slow. It took so long to get the attention of the waitress. Taste of the food is okay but not worth the wait.

This sushi place is the perfect place if you want a cheap bite to eat. Their sushi is always fresh and tasty. I frequently eat here when there is nothing to eat in my house or I need a quick bite to eat. Today I got a dynamite roll, an avocado roll and two shrimp sashimi for less then 10 dollars. They always fill me up and I always feel satisfied after eating there. I've eaten here so often that the owners know who I am and I always tip well because of it. It's a small privately run business so they really appreciate your business and always try to do their best for you. Their son is the delivery driver, Jun makes all the sushi and his wife is the waitress. read more

Jun sushi is an small restaurant that is conveniently located In Kitsilano. The sushi was very fresh and thoroughly exceeded our expectations without breaking the bank. The owner was very friendly and the atmosphere was calm and relaxed. Been here at least once a week. We love Combo E (3 tuna sushi, 3 Wild Dalmon sushi and dynamite rolls). They shrimp yakisoba, bbq unagi and spicy tuna rolls is to die for. Their green tea is darker than average sushi place. Which is a bonus:). read more
