Small Family-owned Japanese Restaurant [Chemainus BC]Wow! The last review posted was written 5 years ago. They originally offered table service but when Covid hit they only did take out and until now in September 2023 they still only do takeout orders. There are two tables for use in the dining room (good for up to 4 seating each) but there is no dining service available. This is a family-owned business (father-daughter). Friendly daughter who took our orders. We were the first one in when they opened for the day. When we originally came here first on Sunday they were closed. The business is closed on Sundays. Their business hours in Yelp needs updating. Open Mon-Sat 11:00a to 7:00p.I ordered the California Roll Bento Box. What would normally come in a bento box was served in a styrofoam box. It's okay since they are now just take out. Everything was delicious... the beef, salad, tempura except for the California Roll, it was not fresh and the kind you would get premade from a grocery store. The restaurant is located in a small seaside town of Chemainus in the Cowichan Valley in the Vancouver Island in British Columbia.Review #3155

brusk greeting. small seating area No table service. Seafood yaki udon was minimal...not filling. It did have some seafood in it. Outside seating is beside a busy street/ I am not going there again.

Never cared enough to give a review on a restaurant but this was the worst sushi I’ve ever had. Ingredients weren’t fresh, like is the refrigerator broke down? Server was rude, got the impression we were an inconvenience. Can guarantee that if there’s any other sushi restaurant within a 30 min drive it’s worth the effort.

Cute little place, the sushi I had was quite good and seemed fresh. No table service at the moment but can eat on their deck. Prices were reasonable and portion sizes sensible

Amazing food made by amazing people!We order takeout a few times a month and are always blown away by how great the food is. The owners are absolutely wonderful and we are always greeted with genuine joy and kindness each and every time we're there.Having such great food locally is fantastic. We were having to go into Nanaimo for sushi prior to trying Sushi Kuni, and the prices were higher but the quality wasn't there. We are thrilled to have found a local gem and love supporting a local business!If you're ever passing through Chemainus, stop in and try their food. You won't regret it!

Dear Customer. Drop by, grab some sushi and enjoy your day.Mon-Sat 11am - 7pmYou can sit at the tables but we won't be able to give you dine in service. Due to the huge rise in wholesale prices, menu items will be raised. We hope all of our customers will be understanding of this situation. Thank you!
Used to be excellent. Quality and quantities kept degrading we pick it up at the grocery for half the price and better quality

When my friend and I ate here we felt like an inconvenience to the operators. They also aren't open for dining in, take-out only. The sushi was OK, but the rice tasted off.
