27 Best Japanese Restaurants near Tsawwassen

“I was just strolling around the mall and decided to check out some nearby restaurants, I’m so happy I ended up here! The place feels cozy and welcoming, and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

I ordered the tempura, chicken karage seafood udon, and a crazy roll. Everything was honestly perfect. The tempura was super crispy (attempted to buy more) and dipping it in the soy sauce made it even better. The seafood udon had a nice sweet twist to the broth, and I asked them to make it spicy and it turned out absolutely perfect. The crazy roll was fresh and great too, I suggest to add creamcheese if you like creamcheese. I noticed it's a mix of japanese and korean dishes, which is perfect.

Loved everything! Great atmosphere, great service, and delicious dishes. I’ll definitely be coming back when I’m craving sushi or korean food when I'm around the area! Highly recommend!“

“Both food and pricing are good. Highly recommended“

“We love this Japanese restaurant for the high food quality, high staff quality, reasonable prices in today's market & location! Today, I tried the Nigiri Lunch and loved it! My husband had the double meat chicken teriyaki and some of mine cause it looked so tasty, and it truly was scrumptious ! We started with the Crae crae roll (shared). In my Nigiri lunch, I upgraded the salmon to sockeye, one dollar more, but worth it! The miso soup was perfect for us as we watch our sodium and they only use low sodium soya sauce! The combination of food, service & cost is why they get 5 stars! Any staff we saw were very friendly & said hello & goodbye. Customer service is top notch! Aside note, their green tea is one of the best we've enjoyed, too!“

“Went here with my family of 10 impromptu Saturday evening.

All the food was amazing, I had the chicken teriyaki don. Highly recommend with the crispy skin and perfectly cooked rice.

Service was also top notch and super attentive and accommodating. Jax was also an absolutely all star for my family. Thank you as well for the ice cream!“

“Kid-friendliness: Superb friendly excellent service and a calm relaxing family friendly atmosphere! My kid loves their sushi especially the cheese potato roll! Highly recommend the chicken curry don. Such generous servings too!! If you come hungry you’ll definitely leave substantially gastronomically appeased and happy!“

“Since hubby misses Japan (the food especially) immensely, I decided to bring Japan to him for his birthday! It was more than we could've hoped for from the gracious hosts, Chef Ray and wife Christine, to the gorgeous presentation of each course, the preparations of each item, the texture, the taste and the cosy atmosphere. We savoured each bite, while enjoying the friendly banter between the hosts and a couple of their regulars at the bar seating. Highly recommend! side note: I was impressed by just how meticulous and thoughtful they are when I saw they even put a little decor under the washroom sink.“

“The food tastes very good and everyone is so friendly and provide the high quality service“

“Really enjoyed lunch with the curry tendon on rice. Staff was friendly and had a very nice atmosphere. Pleasant Japanese music was playing in the background. Each table had a small traditional dish of pickled daikon. Yummy. Street side parking just outside“

“The place is neat and tidy.
Staff are friendly.

I love the Udon. The taste was good.
Kid's menu portion was generous when compared to my udon. 😆
The salmon sushi was great, too!

This is a Janpanese restaurant runned by, I believe, Korean.“

“Absolutely loved everything about this place!
The sushi was super fresh and the rice had that perfect texture, with each grain standing out. You can really tell a lot of care went into the food.
All the tempura dishes were fantastic. Light, crispy and full of flavor.
The staff were so friendly and made the whole experience even better.“

“Lovely little Japanese place hidden away. Kind and friendly staff. Quick service. Clean kitchen and sesting area.

Hubby and I ordered 2 Asahi, 1 spicy salmon roll, and salmon oshi.

One negative would be the washrooms. They were clean but they looked very old. No hook to hang a jacket.“

“Fresh and tasty sushi ❤️ Glad can still get take out time to time!“

“I did my research around the area ahead and locked this sushi restaurant as it has good options and prices.
After visiting the fisherman wharf and the Cannery, we came here for lunch.
The Chirashi Don was nicely packed with dishes. Chicken teriyaki has great portion. I ordered the Mega Sashimi which was nicely presented and good quality fish. I may got more fish for the same price with two Sashimi bento, but those would be more average fish.
Very fresh food, very friendly staff.“

“first time here for AYCE lunch, I find the place very clean, and staff friendly. Food is overall very good, I like the sushi, sashimi, BC rolls, salad, chicken teriyaki, futomaki, tempura, and ice cream. The miss are sunomono too sweet lack vinegar, goma salad too salty, and that thirsty feeling from MSG (which I have no idea from which items). Yes I will go back again :)“

“We arrived just before 4 so we were able to order from the lunch menu. E everyone ordered bento box. It was a lot of food so come hungry. They served us toasted rice tea, very nice. With the bento boxes you had a choice of salad or edamame. Service was fast and courteous. Food was delicious. Great location for a lunch or dinner before dropping someone off at the airport.“

“My first time visited this Japanese restaurant. Surprisingly, the food , service and atmosphere are great and value for money. Chef choice Sashimis are fresh and delicious. I really enjoy the whole dining experience in this small but high quality restaurant. Recommend!“

“Good food, although a little high priced. The atmosphere is warm but the restaurant seating area is extremely restricted and very small. It was not too busy so it was not a problem. But something to be aware of. They would not be able to accommodate a large group.“

“fantastic place to order take out sushi! just placed the order and pick up. wished they open a little later. they close at 730pm but I'm willing to adjust“

“Ordered seafood salad and my gf loved it. Ordered a chicken teriyaki box for myself and the chicken came as fried. Weird. Never had teriyaki chicken this style before but I guess this might be a fusion attempt or something g. Just not used to it.“

“We went there late around 8:30pm? Ish—- Service was great food was fresh“

“Ora Sushi is a cute little spot in the heart of Steveston Village and has all of the usual Japanese fare with a few “wow” items for the adventurous! I had a craving for udon, and the beef yakiudon did not disappoint! They have a respectable sushi selection of rolls, sashimi and nigiri.“

“Good Chinese food! Lots of choices here. We typically order sweet and sour pork, soy sauce chicken, and broccoli with either beef or seafood (picture has this one).

We also like the fried rice and noodles too.

Plenty of parking in the mall, but you should make a reservation if you plan to come for dinner or on weekends because they can be full.“
