“Been wanting to try this place for awhile. Showed up early and it was a good thing because they fill up quickly and reservations would probably be recommended.I had been eyeing the Oo unagi hitsumabushi gozen set and they really delivered. It reminded me of the meals we had it Japan and there was so much unagi.Also tried the Shokado lunch set which included a mini assorted sashimi, assorted tempura, kobachi, chawan mushi, rice, miso soup and bbq fish.A bit out of the way but I'd definitely come back for that unagi.Update Apr 2024: Returned in April for a revisit and ordered the Edokko gozen as well as trying the Shokado gozen again.Things were good until we found a hard rock in the gomae. When we informed the staff about it, they took the cost off our bill.“

“Haven't been to Yuu for a while and we went back last week. Price didn't go up much despite the inflation. Kids order some special drink and the staff even gave them a small ice-cream cone to top it off. Great gesture. Would definitely be going back more often.“

“Best Izakaya type restaurant hands down in Richmond.Must visit when in Richmond!Parking and LocationVery easy to find on No.3 Road. The parking is plentiful with the parking lot directly in front and back of the mall.AtmosphereExtremely great decor that is of a typical Izakaya eatery in Japan. Reminds me of Tokyo and some other in Japan. There is also a big screen TV for those who wants to watch sports. There are a few rooms for more private spaces but floor space is plenty.FoodThe food is excellent! From the uni sushi to sashimi, to the robata of beef tongue and chicken knee, everything taste excellent. There is a wide variety of choice in sake, both hot and cold. The beer is great, especially the Okinawan draft beer, which has a clean taste and goes down quite easy.ServiceThe best if all is the service. The owners, Glenda and Spencer, may also join you for a quick drink! Their hospitality is the best of the overall experience. It reminds I me of Izakaya places in Japan where the owner joins you in chatter and drink. Definitely a great experience overall.Geanbei Izakaya is highly recommended for both a place for excellent food as well as a place for a gathering. Will definitely visit again whenever I'm in town. I would say this is my local hangout whenever I'm in Richmond to see family and friends.“

“Located in an industrial area by River Road, this non-descript restaurant is located on the second floor of a plaza. It has a cute vibe that is Japan-Italian mix. The food is delicious and is a fusion of Japanese-Italian pasta. There are quite a few choices that make it hard to know what to try first! I ordered the Scallop Uni cream fettucine, which had great umami and Uni taste. Several large pieces of scallop coupled with smaller scallops were provided, and the overall flavour profile was rich, creamy, and tasty. It was a good portion. They were doing their 3rd anniversary promo which included a mocktail, crab croquette, and a pasta of your choice for $33. Overall, a great experience with excellent service and would recommend!“

“The fresh sashimi, grilled fish and boiled fish were also excellent. The staff and chef are all very pleasant, and the inside of the restaurant has a calm atmosphere. Two private rooms are also recommended for celebrations and gatherings with family and friends.“

“This is hands down my favourite Poke spot!! Ingredients are always super fresh and I love that they have detailed nutritional facts - I don't know any other Poke spot that has this. They have an cute app too and you get a free bowl if you collect enough points. :)“

“I had a lovely lunch of Assorted Oden at Gyo-O recently. It was a simple meal, but Oden isn't something that I see often around here so I was very happy to be able to order it at Gyo-O. There's another restaurant in Richmond that's supposed to specialize in Oden, and I had tried it one time but found it quite disappointing. While there was a wide variety of Oden to choose from, we weren't very impressed with the food when it arrived at our table. Oden is meant to be a hot wintertime stew but the broth that was served with our oden was not at all hot.This Oden at Gyo-O was much better. The broth was hot as it should be, and the size of the food was impressive. The tofu and daikon were both massive! Such humungous chunks of tofu and daikon. I'd had Oden in Japan not too long ago, and the daikon there was also huge. This daikon at Gyo-O was quite comparable in size. Possibly slightly larger even. If I have a craving for Oden, I don't think I'll bother searching for any other place in Vancouver to have it. I'll come straight to Gyo-O again!My friend was with me and she ordered a Tendon bento box. She said the rice texture was a bit off, and ended up pouring soup over her rice to moisten it. The tendon though, according to her was very nicely crisped.Service: GoodParking: Plentiful and freeLocation: #2137 - 3779 Sexsmith Rd., Richmond, BC“

“Very good place for izakaya and sushi as they have a good variety of skewers, sushi rolls, appetizer, and some specialty dishes.The mentaiko rice was very flavorful, creamy and we would definitely order this again. The ton Ttoro and shiso chicken were juicy and had a nice charcoal taste. The beef tongue and chicken gizzard were good too, they had a hint of the charcoal fire taste and my wife liked them.The imperial roll was good as the salmon was fresh. The salmon was velvety soft and not like firm wlike when it's been on the fridge for too long.We also got the garlic butter clams as an additional dish because if we just ate skewers, our bill would have been huge. LolThe service was great. They came around and filled our tea so often that our cup was always full. Whenever we needed something, they were there. The food came out quick and when it got very busy, they did advise that the skewers may take longer as they can only make so many at a time.The parking lot isn't too big and it fills up quickly but we were lucky and got a spot right away.“

Presentation was also very appealing.Service was fantastic with a very attentive waitress. No cup remained empty and no empty dish was left on the table.Atmosphere was intimate and modern. Felt special with its location and tucked away entrance. Cleanliness was not an issue.The food and quality are leagues above Toronto’s selection.Would strongly recommend!감사합니다!“

“To he honest, I think the specialty of Katte is this Takoyaki. By far, it is the best in vancouver. The outer layer is crispy and the inside is soft but cooked well. And the amount of sauce and things on the top makes this takoyaki real good.I am super happy to find good snack.“

“Finally after so many years I went to this restaurant, always pass by it and never got the chance to go try... Got the Yakisoba and teriyaki beef bento set today, came with California roll and a little salad on the side, portion was enough for a fat dude like me... all for about 17.00 including everything which is quite decent for prices now days... Atmosphere inside was quiet, clean and relaxed.. would definitely start going when back in Richmond..“

“I ordered the spicy salmon sashimi don for lunch. The portion was huge that I couldn't even finish it. The meal was fresh and delicious, so good. It had the right amount of spicy and cucumbers. Service was quick, just how it should be for a lunch service.“
“Great sushi spot in Richmond if you're willing to spend a few extra bucks!We ordered the following for two:- uni cream udon- volcano scallop roll- red n blue roll- hamachi sashimi (6 piece)- aburi sushi combo (2 orders)- ube puree ice cream (2 orders)- x1 beer for myselfEverything tasted great and the quantity was just enough for 2 people. The only item I wasn't a huge fan of was the uni cream udon, to me it just tasted like mac n cheese sauce on udon noodles...but it wasn't too bad.My favorite was the Red n Blue roll. It was fresh and delicious! ? I also enjoyed the ice cream dessert with the ube noodles thing on top of (matcha flavoured?) ice cream.Service was good as well. We got seats as soon as we walked in on a Friday night. Surprisingly this place wasn't busy on a Friday night, perhaps it was the price of their menu, but either way it worked out for us! Servers were attentive and friendly.Only con would be the location. Parking here is brutal during dinner time on weekends since it's located in a small lot.Overall I would recommend this place if you want some great quality sushi and other Japanese food and don't mind spending a little more...ok maybe a lot more ?.(full disclosure: we spent about $240 total with tip)“

“The sushi at Tsukiji, while decent, did not quite live up to the standards set by other Japanese sushi houses I've visited. The flavors were somewhat lacking in depth, and the freshness of the ingredients was not as pronounced as I had hoped. The selection was adequate, but it didn't offer the wow factor that I was looking for in a sushi dining experience.The service at Tsukiji was average, neither exceptionally good nor bad. The staff were polite and attentive, but there wasn't a sense of warmth or personalized attention that can elevate a dining experience from ordinary to special. The efficiency of the service was commendable, but it lacked the personal touch that can make a restaurant stand out.Overall, I would rate my experience at Tsukiji Japanese Restaurant as a 5 out of 10. While it provides a satisfactory dining experience, it doesn't quite hit the mark in terms of the exceptional food quality and service that I seek in a Japanese sushi restaurant. It's a decent option for a casual meal, but it may not satisfy those looking for an authentic and outstanding sushi experience.“

“We made a reservation for dinner on Apr 22nd because we went the weekend before and it was 1 1/2 hour wait. The food was really good but small portions. We booked for 5:30pm and left at 8pm and not by choice. We took our 7 year old. His food came within about 20-30 minutes. While we got our miso, edamame and salad one at a time, It took over an hour to get our BBQ meat, and longer to get our bowls of rice. 2 1/2 hours to get our bill (with me stopping someone to ask for the bill). Our son was super excited to cook meat but was getting upset with all the waiting. Quite honestly, the 2 adults with him were too. But I would give it a try again because the food was good“

“Incredibly fast service. I ordered and within a minute the rolls were on my table. Super tasty food. Servers were nice. I am amazed how fast they are. I parked, walked in, sat down to eat dinner, ordered takeout, and left all within a span of 10 minutes. I’ve never experienced such quick service before. I’m impressed. They really respect customers time :) love it!“
“Masa Ishibashi delivered a unique and beautiful experience. While the food, restaurant design, and beverages were all superior, it was the warm hospitality and outstanding service that made dining here the most special. The team members were all wonderful people and excellent Japanese cultural ambassadors. They nourished the body, soul, spirit, and all senses with a one of a kind dining experience. Bravo!“

“Otaru is in my neighbourhood and I invited my friend’s family (2 adults, 2 boys) to come join me for lunch on a school holiday (Monday Oct 2, 2023) . I walked in at 12 noon. There were 2 tables of customers before me, and 3 tables got the “reserved” sign. Luckily, we got seated at the larger table by the window. Their menu is impressively diverse, so many different items to choose from. We ordered sashimi, soba, a deluxe roll and a kids sushi plate to try a variety of things. We thought we might need to order more since we had 3 adults but we were actually quite full! I was impressed by how thick the sashimi slices were cut and they were all so tasty and fresh. That speaks quality! I also like the broccolis on the soba which had lots of beef! Will definitely recommend! ?⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Vegetarian options: Sushi rolls“

“Favorite traditional sushi place in Richmond and value for dollar showcases it sheds the fancy nameplate for a very subdued and quality driven experience. The assorted sushi set at $38 (2024) showcases local and Japanese imported fish, fresh and well portioned for each piece to be eaten in one bite, non lock-jawing bite.The saba battera is a little different than other restaurants since it showcases much more redness and has a lot more fish flavor. Some may be a little overwhelmed so try if you truly like Saba :), but dive in if you love it.Other standouts are the ankimo and tako wasabi and their uni tasted really good too (not sandy nor bitter).I really enjoy the intimacy in which it feels to dine here. Run by the same couple for years, I hope to experience many more.“

“Amazing little hole in the wall that should be on "You Gotta Eat Here" or Triple Ds. Freaking AWESOME food! I went with my husband, son, and his buddy. We all loved every bite. I am a chef and find it difficult to enjoy meals in many restaurants but this one-man show is the real deal. It's hard work. If you are looking for a romantic posh quaint cafe where you will be gushed over by the staff, this isn't the place for you. If you want genuine home made excellent fresh food that you will never forget than give it a shot. Be prepared to wait. The gentleman who owns it also is the chef, host,server, and cashier. A genuine character. Every meal is made to order and well worth the wait. Not recommended for vegan.“

“Takeya Sushi is like a cross between a typical sushi joint, and a Japanese "Konbini" (the food section).? - They have a menu with a large selection of freshly made-to-order choices, consisting of sushi, curries, noodles, rice bowls, etc.❄️ - In their coolers, they carry ready-to-eat meals, desserts, snacks, drinks as well as more sushi, rice bowls, etc.?️ - The prices are very reasonable, Takeya has always been a more affordable option than other sushi restaurants around.No in-store seating, but there is a park nearby where food can be enjoyed in the hot summer months.“

“We had a lovely experience here. Although the restaurant was very busy, they could have benefited from perhaps adding one more server to the floor. It was very busy, for obvious reasons. Very good food, very pleasant staff, but a little bit on the slower side (regarding service) since they had so many tables to tend to. We appreciate the late business hours as we had a long day and wished to go out for some good food. Overall, we enjoyed our experience here. Would recommend ?“

“Taking a page off Buzzfeed _Worth it_!Spicy salmon sashimi at 3 different price points:1. Banzai ($9.95)2. Sushi Gami (Full $16.95)3. Sushi Mura (Half $14.75)Taste: #2 and #3 had the same base - gochujang - while #1 is uniquely different, more like Indonesian/Malaysian spicy peanut/sesame.Texture: #2 and #3 are firmer than #1...indication of frozen fish for the latter.Portion: similar for all; note that #3 is half order.Worth it winner: Sushi Mura ??* For some who aren't fans of gochujang, Banzai for the win ??“

“The sushi is incredibly delicious and exceptionally fresh, expertly prepared to enhance its flavors. My only concern is with the service because it’s a bit inexperienced. With time, though, I'm confident they'll improve. For instance, when you hand me 2 special menu, it's best not to snatch one away as I'm browsing. Also, serving tea or water as we're seated should be a standard practice. With more experience, this place has the potential to be one of the best sushi spots in BC!“
“Teppan Kitchen is a must go! High quality, efficient service, and cooked by a professional chef...what more can you ask for. 2 thumbs up!“
“Maybe I went at a bad time, but their selection is way smaller than the east Vancouver one. Price is alright, but the display was much smaller. The quality is equally good in comparison to the other locations. If you are in the area and looking for a quality quick bite of sushi, or just wanted to pack some food on the go, Fujiya has never disappointed! Cant wait to try their other selections!“
