“We came here for our first time for my wife’s birthday and we absolutely loved our experience here! We brought cake which they kindly stored in their fridge. Some dishes we ordered are the spicy salmon sushi taco, seaweed salad, corn karaage, and the uni cream pasta. Every dish that came was delicious!! They even provided us with a dish and birthday drink on the house 😁. Thank you so much, we will certainly be back 😃”

“I was taken here for dinner with no context, and my mind was blown. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed and greeted by the owner. He was kind, welcoming, and in clear concert with his staff. Every new dish came with a clean plate, and every dish was better than the last. I’ve been around the world twice, and talked to everyone once, but there are flavors I had here that altered my brain chemistry in the best way possible. I recommend the black cod wings, chimichurri yellowtail, and the albacore. Then again, you can’t go wrong here. I leave this restaurant with an appreciation greater than I thought possible. Special thanks to Takeshi and all of the people that made our night special. Until I’m back to me next time, this meal will live rent free in my head.”

“Everything we ordered was delicious and I don't think you can go wrong with anything from their menu. The black cod practically melted in your mouth and was not too salty. The snow crab and ikura was pretty saucy so if you don't want to let that go to waste or a side of rice with your order. We orderes the hot stone dishes for fun since everyone seemed to enjoy it. It was fun to try at least once and the meat was good quality. We came here on a random afternoon in the middle of the week so there was practically no wait, but there was still a crowd. Very cute interior, lots of things to look at. Service was prompt and they gave us the recommendation to order a side of rice.”

“First time for us, attended a private function. Food was delicious and filling. The service was outstanding and extremely attentive. They had a vast array of sake and after ordering the sake flight (sampler tray), we found a few options that we really liked and ordered a couple of bottles. The sashimi was very fresh and delicious. There was an assortment of dishes that we tried that were on par with many of the high end restaurants, such as the egg omelet with crab ankake and the BBQ eel Unagi rice bowl. Street parking was easy to find. We’d definitely come back to Hashigo Sake Bar.”

“This place is truly a hidden gem, tucked away just beside Robson Street, and surprisingly, not many people know about it. The first time I visited was back in 1999, and it was an unforgettable experience—one that has stayed with me ever since. The moment you walk into the restaurant, you can immediately feel a different kind of vibe. Every staff member warmly greets customers as they arrive and even as they leave, which makes you feel genuinely welcomed and appreciated. The food is delicious and always leaves you wanting to come back for more. I’ve been coming here since 1999, and whenever I’m in the area, I always try to stop by. After all these years, the great food, friendly service, and wonderful atmosphere have never disappointed me. Great service, great food, and great vibes. Please keep it up! I’ll definitely be back for more.”

“It has been over a decade since I've been to a Guu and that was in Toronto. The experience was fantastic! The food was gorgeous and more importantly, delicious! Good service and great atmosphere rounded out a fun visit with friends. Much better than the Guu in Toronto!”
