    My review might be off as I'm new to Vancouver and the sushi in Toronto is nothing compares to here. With that said, I really enjoyed my meal here! Went here because I was in the area and they had really good lunch options and very affordable also. By the time I was seated and got served, there was a lineup of people waiting so that says something right? I had ordered their C9 lunch special which consisted of: rice, miso soup, a side salad, tempura (2 shrimps, 2 potato's), and spicy salmon roll - all for only $8.50. Mind blowing! The miso soup was tastey - definitely tasted the miso flavour instead of it being watered down. The tempuras were fresh and crunchy and superb! The salad was also good - they didn't drench it in dressing. The roll was amazing! Fresh salmon pieces and the spiciness was from thebsiracha on top which I thought was unique. I'd definitely go here again during lunch break!

    Just finished eating Saba Nigiri, Toro Nigiri and Spicy tuna rolls. These are basic dish for a sushi place and you cannot mess it up unless you are using a realLy shitty quality ingredients. However, all three of them were plain, falling apart and tasted pretty bad as I was able to taste the frozen low quality fish. They didn't even give me any ginger or wasabi. The price is cheap but the quality of food and service are even cheaper.

    Beef teriyaki combo.

    Solid value, but lacking a bit in craftsmanship. I ordered a chicken teriyaki combo and a salmon teriyaki combo. Worked out to be about $21 in total, which is a very good value. We were completely satiated with the quantity of the food. Everything tasted fresh, and flavorful. Service was quick and friendly. The only complaint I have was that the sushi rolls were made quite sloppily. The rolls looked inconsistent in size and proportion sitting next to each other. The tuna rolls had a lot of loose grains of rice sticking to the outside seaweed wrapping. More than one roll fell apart on the journey from the platter to my mouth, and I am reasonably adept at using chopsticks. I would be more understanding if the restaurant was busy and the rolls were made in haste, but there was only one other person there at the time. Not a big deal, since sloppy sushi tastes the same as perfectly crafted sushi, but details like these are what separate 4 star joints from 5 star joints.

    While running errands back in October, we were looking for something quick and tasty to eat around the Broadway area. Since there is an overabundance of sushi places in Vancouver, we decided to try Sushi Dragon. This restaurant is rather narrow but the large mirrors on the left wall makes the place feel bigger than it really is. It seemed like they cater mostly to take-out orders as we saw a lot of people coming in to pick up their orders while we waited for our food. The Beef Teriyaki ($6.50) was pretty good and at a relatively fair price. The thin slices of beef were covered in a nice sauce. The House Special Roll ($5.50) had tuna, salmon, scallop and fake crab on the inside and was topped with tobiko. The Assorted Sashimi ($12.50) came with hokkigai (surf clam), tai (sea bream) which was beautifully delicate, toro (fatty tuna), salmon, and tuna. Overall, the sashimi was pretty good with a nice, clean finish. Last up was some nigiri: Toro ($1.75), Unagi ($1.75), Tamago ($1.35), Ikura ($1.75), Chopped Scallop ($1.50). The only negative that I have to say for the nigiri was that the nori was a bit tough. I was actually surprised at how good the food was at this small little take-out shop.

    A small restaurant on Broadway in Vancouver. I ordered Chicken and Egg with rice. Only $8.50!! Such a friendly price. Comes with great portion and it tastes very good.

We recommend sitting by the window or at the sushi bar, where you can watch the chefs prepare the seared sushi right before your eyes.

It's almost always fully booked, so be sure to make a reservation in advance. Request a window seat to enjoy the waterfront view while savoring your meal--it's well worth it!

We were seated next to a window, and it was nice to look out at the happenings on the water near the cruise port. They were very accommodating of our daughter. We made several special requests to accommodate her (sophisticated for her age but still toddler) palate. She loved the meal as much as we did. We ordered some (bento-style) lunch options and the flavours were all divine. It was a ton of food but we felt obliged to eat it all because it was so delicious. The pressed sushi was amazing. All the fish was super fresh. Although it is an expensive restaurant (as most sushi restaurants are), we felt the price was fair for the quality. The only thing I would say is that I wish they started lunch a little earlier than noon. We had a reservation for 12pm noon and arrived a few minutes early. We were the first ones there. Although they were nice enough to allow us to sit in the entrance lobby while we waited, upon opening at noon they took other reservations ahead of ours.

Not just for great sushi, but really affordable prices as well. Yes, the wait for a table can get long. We waited about 45 minutes, and there's no area to wait except outside or go take a walk since they will text you when your table is ready. I also appreciate seeing where my place in line is through Yelp! First, a shoutout to the wonderful service here. Everywhere I go in Vancouver the service is great, but the server here was so friendly, helpful and efficient. The ambiance is really nice here and I love the place settings! We had a lot, so here is my breakdown: Spicy Agedashi Tofu - lightly fried tofu in a sauce that reminded me of gochuchang sauce. 7/10 Gyoza - crispy fried with a pork/veggie filling. 6/10 Karaage chicken - on the bone, but delicious nonetheless. Served with a mayo sauce. 7/10 Tuna Bomb - 10/10 this came out last because it takes longer to make. This is an absolute must-do. Crispy rice patties with a spicy tuna spread that you just place on the rice. Salmon jalapeno aburi hako - 10/10 I have been excited about this since I heard about it. The seared salmon on top of rice with a shrimp tempura running through the middle. The salmon and sauce on top melt in your mouth. Red Dynamite Roll - 9/10 this was my brother's favorite. I wanted it to be a bit spicier, but that said it's still so amazing. Mango Flower Roll - 9/10 if you like mango then you will love this. This also just melts in your mouth and that mango is just so fresh. California roll - 8/10 as great as a California roll can be! No complaints here! Rainbow Roll - I didn't get to try it, but my niece gave it a 10/10! I will definitely be coming back here again.

Each piece gets torched over charcoal which gives it this smoky, melt-in-your-mouth quality, and the specialty sauces mean you don't even reach for the soy (they will also say to your face not to, so unless you want to endure their judgement--which my husband happily does--I'd stay away from soy sauce for the aburi. Their salmon oshi is well known, I love the ebi oshi the most but definitely get both and decide for yourself. The whole menu delivers though, from the sashimi to the rolls to the cocktails, all of it beautifully plated without feeling fussy. The space is nice too, took a big group of family here once after an event and they all loved it. And if you're here in the summer ask about the garden patio out back. It's an elevated experience but never stuffy. Perfect for a date night or when you want to treat yourself. Reservations are a good idea because it fills up. Easily one of my favourite spots in Yaletown though!

    I went here for a special occasion dinner. Reservations are highly recommended because they are…read morevery small - 12 diners per sitting and 2 sittings per night. I made reservations about 4 months in advance. Upon arrival, one of the hostesses opened the door for us, and asked us to wait in a very ornate waiting area. We only waited a couple of minutes before another hostess seated us at the main seating area. The space is very dark, and only lit with candles while the rest of the diners trickled in. During that time they take drink orders, which is limited to sake, wine, beer and a few non-alcoholic drinks. Of note, they don't provide a drink menu, so we were a little surprised by the cost - the yuzu sake and the plum wine were $30 each. My non-alcoholic drink was $12, but a fair size. The theatrical portion started a few minutes later than the official start time - closer to 6pm. The shades lifted, the lights turned on, and the chefs introduced themselves. And from that moment on, they immediately went to work preparing our meal. They operate like clockwork to show the ingredients whole to the diners, and then preparing them, and serving them. Soon as the one dish was completed by all the diners, the next round came shortly after. Over 20+ dishes, there was very little wait time in between each. Each time a dish was served, a hostess was there to describe the dish and provided tips on how best to eat it. The food was overall was very good. I thought a few items were very average, most of them were very good, and a select few were truly outstanding. Most of the ingredients are imported from Japan, so I would imagine that it's part of the reason it's so expensive. This is definitely a splurge meal. I think half the diners at our sitting was celebrating a birthday. On the most part, the food is very good, watching the chefs at work is part of the entertainment, and the service is excellent. It's not some place I could afford to go to often, but glad to do it at least this one time.

Okeya Kyujiro is a Michelin one-star theatrical omakase restaurant, and when they say theatrical, they mean it! From the moment you're welcomed by smiling ushers in kimono to the closing tea ceremony, every movement feels intentional, precise, and elevated. The ambiance is serene and anticipatory. At the start, guests sit in silence as a black screen conceals the chefs. You see their shadows moving behind it. A bell rings, the screen lifts, and the performance begins. Dinner is a 25+ course experience priced at $325 per person. It's undeniably a splurge, but for a milestone celebration, it feels justified. The menu is seafood-forward, with many ingredients flown in from Japan. Each ingredient is presented before preparation, then carefully assembled and served directly from chef to guest. Courses arrive one by one, never rushed. The service team moves seamlessly in the background, refilling water and attending to drinks (available as an add-on) without disrupting the flow. The finale is a matcha ceremony, whisked in front of you with the same quiet precision that defines the evening. When the final sip is taken, the bell chimes once more, the chefs and staff bow, and the screens close. It was a beautifully choreographed dining experience, perfect for marking a special moment, and one I'd gladly return to for the next celebration.
