This is an absolute gem, the food was fantastic - we enjoyed everything, but the oshi tuna in particular was out of this world! The service was very attentive and polite. It was a small place that doesn't take reservations so we did take a chance, but boy did it ever pay off! I don't live in BC, so not sure when I'll be back, but I will be sure to tell everyone I know that this was truly one of the highlights of our trip to the West Coast!
Service was great and fast. The chef is amazing, and I liked that the sashimi was cut thick.
Really delicious Japanese food! Fresh, flavorful, and great quality. I really enjoyed everything and would definitely come back again! 🤍
