I really like this place and get very sad when I have my physio appointments new door on Tuesday's because sushi boss is closed. It's a small family owned business so the hours aren't the best (make sure you look at the hours ahead of time), but the quality of the sushi always makes up for it. I find their fish and meat very high quality and they put a lot of time and effort into the presentation and packaging, I have only ever ordered to go! They have very reasonable prices and great combos, and usually give a little extra treat in your box :) I recommend if you are in the area! read more

love coming here The food is good at a reasonable price. The owner is very kind. I've been coming here for several years and will continu.

We tried to come here during business hours twice at 11, it never opened! Not even sign of opening. We called, no one answered. Do they still operate? read more

The Sushi was extremely fresh and the service was pleasant. This place is definitely a hidden Jem. read more

Sushi Boss - Excellent sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

I have been eating in or taking out from Sushi Boss for more than 3 years. But recently the quality of their rolls have been consistently disappointing. The rolls always fall apart. The ingredients are different from the menu. Sometimes I thought maybe they were having a busy night. But when I walked into the restaurant, there was nobody. I am not going back anymore. You can get better sushi from grocery stores. read more

I came across Sushi Boss while I was looking up a new sushi restaurant to try in Coquitlam. Rated highly on Urbanspoon with rave reviews from diners, I needed to go try this out for myself to find out how good this was. Sushi Boss is located in a small plaza at the corner of Robson Drive and Pinetree Way in Coquitlam, part way up Westwood Plateau. With limited parking spaces, this hole in the wall sushi restaurant isn't too hard to spot as the rest of the area consists of residential housing. A small restaurant with limited seating inside, they've also setup a couple of tables outside as well for those diners wanting to eat out on a nice day. I suspect most people who live in the area probably take-out their food as to not having to wait for a table. We arrived around 6:30pm and it was quite busy. We managed to grab a small table in front of the cash area. Service was quick and friendly. We were offered self-serve complimentary tea and water. Sushi Boss touts itself as healthy options including free-range meat and wild salmon on its menu. They also offer several specialty rolls including a Hickory Bacon Roll (yes, Bacon!) consisting of 3 strips of bacon, asparagus, avocado, spicy tuna, topped with honey mustard and spicy sauce. As my hubby and I weren't too hungry, we opted to try two combos to share. We ordered the Sashimi Combo and the Sushi Boss Combo. Our order was taken quickly, and to our surprise we were offered a couple of freshly fried gyozas and side salad to start. The Sashimi Combo came with slices of wild salmon and tuna sashimi, along with an Ebi (shrimp) nigiri, Tuna nigiri, and Wild Salmon nigiri and California roll. The sashimi was fresh, and we loved the wild salmon versus the farmed salmon commonly served at most restaurants. This combo cost $13.50, a bit more than other restaurants around the area, however, the quality is higher than other places. The Sushi Boss Combo consists of Alaska Roll, Dynamite Roll and Chef's Choice - a secret not revealed until you are served, so it can be different with each order. For our order, the Chef's choice turned out to be 2 Chopped Scallop Nigiris and 2 Aburi Nigiris (seared tuna). We really enjoyed the Alaska Roll with the smoked salmon, as well as the Aburi nigiris. I'm normally not a tuna fan, however when it's seared correctly and topped with a light vinagrette sauce, it was delicious! At $14 this plate for one person is actually quite filling. Sushi Boss 4Overall we were both quite full after the two combos. Although a bit pricier than other sushi restaurants, we liked the quality of the dishes, and will be back to try more specialty rolls in the future. read more

So good. Always fresh and I have never been disappointed. They use premium meats and good ingredients. I can't go back to just eating regular sushi! Try the ninja roll I love it. Spicy combo is good value. read more

For lunch today, NW and I went to Sushi Boss in Coquitlam. It's just a little restaurant on the corner of Robson and Pinetree Way so don't expect a lot of seating area. I've had takeout from here before but it was my first time eating in. We were surprised and delighted that they gave us a complimentary salad and 2 pieces of gyoza. The salad also included edamame, apple slices, and orange which was awesome. I really liked the dressing. It was was like a citrus/miso combination. The gyozas were cooked fresh and very hot when they came out so that was great :) We got one order of the Fire Cracker Roll ($11). It had seared spicy tuna on top, avocado, crab meat, and prawn tempura inside. It was pretty good but could be spicier. It had a good amount of smokiness though and I thought it tasted better with some of the lemon. We also got a Dynamite Combo ($9). There were 6 pieces of Dynamite Roll and 1 piece each of salmon, tuna, and ebi nigiri. For this one, I could tell that the rolls were poorly made. They were cut unevenly and the rice was too loose so the sushi fell apart easily. Other than that, it tasted just like a regular Dynamite Roll. The fish seemed fine too. The service was pretty good (we were the only customers at the time). She was friendly, refilled our drinks, and cleared our dishes promptly. :) Overall, not bad but I thought the prices were a bit steep for a small sushi place like this. The complimentary salad somewhat makes up for it though! Food - 7.5/10 Service - 9/10 Ambience - 8/10 Value - 7.5/10 read more

Love to support small biz and all... The good: small place; service is attentive. At first glance, price is better than the other bigger sushi joints What could they do better to make me want to come back? Serving size. The rolls were also falling apart; the rice didn't taste like pure Japanese rice. I wanted to discover a sushi gem based on Yelp reviews....I was mildly disappointed. Now, I gotta hear my better half talk about this for the next century for picking this place! read more

Lovely family business. Always happy and helpful. Food is good and very close. I try to support them as much as I can.

This place is absolutely amazing! You must try it out. The stuff is extremely friendly and the food is exceptionally fresh. You cannot go wrong with this place read more

Clean, small, welcoming restaurant. Food is very fresh, considering the kitchen is right in the dining area. Atmosphere and feel is absolutely amazing. Staff is friendly, ready when you need them. Getting to the small details, portioning is down to earth. It's not over, and it's not under portioned. Most of the food you order here will serve 1-2 people. Dishes being served is colorful and appetizing. Very different from the competition out there. Menu is not over crammed, just the pure essentials of Japanese cuisine. The rice and the vinegar acidity is absolutely beautiful and spot on. Excellent job. Sashimi is not chewy, has a instant melt feeling in your mouth. One of the downsides is the batter will get cold and soggy after being left on the table for too long. Some restaurants have better tempura batter mix than others. However, this is not a contributing factor to lower the score for my review in any way. Overall, absolutely wonderful gem in the tri-cities. Completely hidden, but one of the most beautiful places that gives me a eat-at-home feeling. I would definitely come again because of the great feel, and the freshness. Well done. read more

Delicious and affordable! I try and stop by when ever I'm close by. Very fresh and great selection. They also give you a salad to start and it is perfect! If you love sushi then I would highly recommend checking this place out. Yum yum! read more

Small but a nice place usually not super crowded but since it's small sitting are very limited. Decent coffee and fair trade which is always nice. Not too many options but good food and I personally think it's quite unique and very healthy. read more

Best sushi I have ever had. You do not get better customer service than this, and their quality is phenomenal. It's wallet friendly, and very clean in there. I have nothing bad to say at all about them. Do yourself a favour and go as soon as you can! read more

We ordered takeout and I enjoyed the mango-salmon roll, which also came with avocado on top. Yum! The rolls weren't too big or too small so I could pop them in my mouth~ Sushi that is too massive is not good because it's too awkward to eat and fall apart. The salmon tasted fresh and the mango did too. A nice light meal for hot summer days. Would recommend Sushi Boss for people in the Tri-Cities! read more

"I like that I can fit them in my mouth. Everything is in bite size pieces. Put that in your review." I went to Sushi Boss tonight with two friends. The decision was largely based on the glowing reviews on Yelp, Urbanspoon, and Google. The photos and menu looked appealing and reasonably priced for this style of cuisine. We arrived there around 7PM and it was relatively empty. Though all the tables seemed for two patrons, the waitress quickly pushed the tables together. I do not know if this would have been a problem if it was busier, but it worked out this time. The waitress was pleasant and the service was quick. As soon as we had placed our order, she came back with a free dish that include salad, fresh fruit, and gyoza. The appetizers that we had ordered, veggie gyoza and ebi sunomono, arrived quickly after. The veggie gyoza was a great deal for $3.50 as it was tasty and relatively sizable.The ebi sunomono was light and fresh tasting. Though I generally prefer the dish to be a little more tart, this one was still good and the addition of strawberries was an interesting touch. The only complaint that I had was that the prawns were a little too rubbery. One of my companions ordered the salmon mango roll. This item turned out to be the highlight of the meal. While mango and salmon sounded like a strange combination, the flavours were perfect. This would be the item that my friend would return for, without question. He also ordered the spicy combo which included a spicy dynamite roll, spicy tuna roll, and spicy tuna sashimi. The spicy dynamite roll was an enlightening experience. The tempura batter was notably good and even though the roll was just a generic roll with the spicy sauce on top, it was well worth it. The spicy tuna roll was also very good. The spicy tuna sashimi left something to be desired though. While my companion had a decent outlook on it, I found that the fish was much too cold. It was almost as though it had recently been frozen and had not thawed properly. Though the spicy sauce was delectable, the temperature was enough to put me off. My other companion had a spicy tuna roll and a smoked salmon roll. The former was, as noted, very good. The smoked salmon roll was pretty average though. We agreed that it was the least tasty roll that we ordered. It was not exactly bad, but it was not the same quality as the other dishes. Further, there was too much rice on it. Finally, I ordered the salmon K roll which was a spicy salmon roll with spicy salmon on top. It was not as spicy as I anticipated it would be, but it was nonetheless incredible. It had a sweet element which made for an interesting balance with the spicy sauce. I would order this again. Bottom line, this place provides quick and efficient service. The food is well priced and very tasty. The decor is clean and the background music was pleasant. I would recommend this to Coquitlam residents. It is not the kind of restaurant you go out of your way to visit, but it is perfect if you are local. read more

I absolutely love this Mom N Pop sushi resto. We use it for take out and small meals for 4 people (small place). The resto is super clean, friendly and FULL of delish sushi. Our fav is wild salmon sashimi and the ninja roll! Today I tried the vegan roll and it was AMAZING (with black rice). They have organic coffee and chicken/beef with zero hormones/organic. read more

A definite little gem especially if you live in the area. I decided to check it out after a hike at Belcarra. Tucked in a small plaza in the burbs it's a quaint little spot. Not a lot of seating. Friendly staff, chill music, fresh tasty sushi that is nicely presented. Great little spot. read more

The place is small but comfy. Price is a little expensive compare to other better sushi places. Won't go there again

Okay sushi in the middle of nowhere. The fish isn't the freshest but good enough I suppose. Good service though, friendly staff, and complimentary dishes are provided (gyoza and edamame). read more

Quality is consistently decreasing since they opened. Rice falls apart when I try to pick up a piece of nigiri. Takoyaki has too much batter and only one TINY piece of octopus, plus they don't have bonito flakes on top. Fish is not the freshest, a piece of tuna was still semi-frozen. Way too expensive for the quality (or lack thereof). read more

Friendly staff. We were seated right away and the food came quickly. The sushi was decent, but the rolls were a bit too big- the individual pieces were too large. Overall good value. read more

This is our favourite sushi place in the area. It is super fresh and tasty. The miso soup is hearty and delicious. The rolls are creative and healthy. Presentation is great. They give you a little snack before you order. Very sophisticated for the area. This place is a hidden gem. My only complaint is the attention to detail when ordering. Recently we got take out and we got 4 of the same rolls instead of what we ordered. I asked on 4 different occasions for extra topping and I never got it. Taste has to win this time. read more

Really unique selection of sushi rolls! My favourite is one you can't get anywhere else - tiger lily. Their miso soup is better than any other place. Staff is super friendly and sweet and the place is in my neighbourhood. Also, I love their aesthetic haha read more

This is the best Sushi Restaurant in the Tricities and one of the best in the Lower Mainland. They serve wild salmon and other excellent ingredients by default. The sushi is excellent, the restaurant is small but pleasant, very nice music is playing in the background and the staff is polite and friendly. Highly recommended. read more

Our friends and family have been going to Sushi Boss for over 6 months, ever since i discovered the place. The service is excellent, the food is delicious and prepared with so much care. I love the owners, the vibe, everything. Awesome local business read more

One of the best sushi in Lower Mainland! I will br definitely back for Tuna Tataki! :-)

Very small and basic ambiance but really good and authentic food overall. We liked it.

My husband and I have been bringing our dear son - jj to Sushi Boss quite a few times now. This is a tiny little sushi joint that offers fresh raw fish (sashimi) and authentic ingredients in their sushi rolls. The first thing I love about this place is they would only use sockeye salmon and the not farmed salmon. Farm salmon is out of our grocery list ever since I met my husband. He told me how horrible the farmed salmon was. Looking forward to go back with my family whenever I get a chance. read more

Excellent food! What more can you ask for. This place is comfortable, delicious, and all around quite lovely.

Since moving to TriCities from East Van two years ago, we've been on the hunt for our new regular local sushi spot. Sure Nagano and Sushi Mori are nice but they were way pricier than we would have liked for a regular everyday sushi place. We were used to the fabulously fresh and budget friendly Sushiyama in East Van (if you're in the area, it's the greatest!) and were searching for something closer to home. After searching on Yelp and Urbanspoon, I came across Sushi Boss. The reviews are all raving and now I can see why... They are super cute inside and out. The service was Ah-May-Zing! So sweet and friendly! She took our orders and promptly surprised us with a salad on the house! Simple and tasty vinaigrette with fresh seasonal tomatoes, strawberries and blueberries atop crisp iceberg (not watery!) with a couple crispy veggie gyozas! He had a combo for 14$ and yam tempura. The combo was giant and the yam was thinly sliced and very generous. I got the gomae, salmon-avo roll, and some nigiri. Everything was super fresh, and tasty. We weren't rushed to leave and were treated so nicely! The place was clean and super simple with adorable details throughout, without seeming like your regular kitschy sushi joint. The menu was concise and easy to read. Loved this place so much and we're thrilled to finally have our fave local sushi place in our new hood. Try it-you'll love it! read more

Great friendly service. Love how they use grain fed beef and chicken and fresh ingredients. Teriyaki has more of a Korean twist to it but if u like Korean short ribs u will like their beef. They let u customize rolls which is really fun. Customized an unagi and mango roll with tobiko which was delicious. They always include a small free side dessert or fruit for customers. Give them a try! read more

Absolutely excellent!! Service is terrific. The rolls and sashimi are delicious and definitely fresh. We will definitely be there again....and again. read more

I don't know why everyone else gave sushi boss such good reviews. Unfortunately this place only has good service and atmosphere but really nothing else. The food that we had ordered was not tasty at all. The rolls were soggy and didn't feel very fresh. The udon noodle soup tasted like they added lots of MSG in it. Personally I don't think I will be back again. read more

Great Sushi place in a convenient location. Food is always fresh and the service is always great. Definitely recommend this place to Sushi lovers. read more

We didn't know what to eat and we decided to try out Sushi Boss which locates in our area. The restaurant is located in a resident neighborhood where there is no other restaurants nearby. You go in and order your food at the counter and seat yourself and wait for them to bring out your food. The menu doesn't have a large selection of sushi, and they all look pretty simple like the regular maki's and sushi rolls. We decided to try out the baked chopped scallop roll (which was the only thing that looked interesting). When the plate came to the table, it didn't look very appetizing as it was just a California roll with some chopped scallops and mixed veggies causally put on top. Flavor wise, it was not bad, but nothing special. I didn't like the mixed veggies (diced onions and bell peppers) on top, cuz they just didn't feel necessary. We also ordered one more roll and the fish didn't taste too fresh. Overall it wasn't really good, and we probably won't come back. read more
