About Ryuu Japanese Kitchen (YVR Outlet)

Ryuu Japanese Kitchen (YVR Outlet) offers a variety of sushi and Japanese dishes, with positive reviews for their special sushi rolls and takoyaki. The restaurant provides vegetarian options, including tofu, though some customers found the tofu bland. The atmosphere is calm and authentic, with friendly and attentive staff creating a warm environment. Seating is comfortable and spaced well, allowing customers to enjoy their meals even during busy times.

Customers have praised the fresh and beautifully presented sushi, the rich and flavorful ramen, and the crispy, light tempura. However, recent reviews mention that the ramen broth, especially the tonkotsu soup base, was tasteless or only lukewarm, with toppings served cold. The noodles tend to be soft and only the noodles are hot in the bowl. Service has been described as brusque, and some dishes like the kamameshi sell out early, possibly due to high demand. The California roll is considered a little too fishy, and the chicken bento box received mixed reviews, with some noting the chicken was dry and lacking sauce. Food is served very quickly, but unlike many ramen places, there is no noodle refill option. Recently, customers tried the Chicken Karaage Don and Chicken Udon, finding the food pretty good but feeling the service could be improved.
