50 Best Sushi Bars in Vancouver

“值得推荐的日餐，意犹未尽 ！“

“Delicious veggie sushi!!!!“

“Absolute gem of a restaurant. I am a BIG sushi lover and am ho estly mind blown by the quality/price ratio.

Great location, every roll I tried was done to perfection and the food is served so fast. Was so good we came back the same weekend for another meal.“

“One of the very best Japanese restaurants in the city. Reasonable prices and home style Japanese food. Worth the wait. Come early.“

“We went to ASA sushi last year at the end of the day during the Canada Day long weekend. It was a delightful surprise! We’re visiting the city, and it was definitely the freshest and most delicious sashimi I’ve ever had. Everything was well-prepared and delicious. I always say that I want to go back someday when I’m in Vancouver again.“

“WOW, i cannot believe this spot i just discovered. The sushi was so fresh. The fish ball soup was so comforting. The best of the meal is the CREAMY UDON. I can literally have two of it for myself. Aaa unfortunately i haven’t tried their alcohol menu yet. Overall, i love this place.🫰🏻🫰🏻☺️☺️“

“This is my favourite local sushi place! It’s a tiny little spot but it’s always busy and the quality is excellent. My favourites are their spicy chicken karaage, the crunch and paparazzi roll and yummy Peking duck roll. The staff is always really friendly too“

“Excellent dining experience. High quality fish and service. I had the omakase dinner and the variety of dishes and sushi was very good! Thank you so much for a wonderful dinner Tetsu Sushi Bar!“

“It’s still best to me in Vancouver
Downtown Vancouver
Been here over decades
Chefs highly reputable and professional
Shop is decent and not those super high end fancy modern type
Great for dating and experience authentic style. Nothing fancy, don’t expect like lighting, games or whatever.
They sell “food” “fresh” Chef’s skill. The traditional Sushi Arts

It’s fixed
I sit along the bar table

Chat with chef and view what his skill and explanation of each dishes.

Great info on how those food come from and how they are processed and when arrived YVR and how they source it and how rare it is for some dishes

He use his experience to work on different circumstances like late delivery or quality from JP local market QA information. Then he decide what to deal with it

Quality is high end. No doubt and no complaints

Staff are super nice and helpful

Love the vipe and feel like back in local Japanese Omakase restaurants

It’s pricey but worth it.

6pm and 8pm seatings

Make reservations!“

“We googled and found this place. First timer to try this sushi place.
The Sashimi is very fresh and delicious! We ordered tempura, udon, grill mackerel, sushi roll…everything tastes really good.
It’s a small and busy restaurant. Service is great. In house Customers and online orders were nonstop while our visit for dinner. We’re so glad to find this new favourite restaurant in this neighborhood.

Parking could be challenging during dinner hours. Drive safely as this area has many pedestrians crossing road anywhere they like.“

“chef's specials, excellent service“

“Delicious Suhi! Great vegan and vegetarian options.
I loved their mango sushi the mango sauce adds sweet flavour to it and veggie california sushi, full of flavour and has good portion size.
The prices are very reasonable and the staff is very warm and welcoming.
This place is wheelchair accessible ♿“

“Echoing all the prior reviews, this place is nothing short of impressive especially at this price level.

There was an hour wait for dinner, but there were also plenty of things & coffee shops nearby to kill time.

The knife work was great on the sashimi. Thick & uniform cuts. Fish were fresh & buttery and needed little to no soy sauce. The roll was great, as well. The crunchy (shrimp?) bit in the middle was a great touch.

I’m looking forward to trying more sashimi here on my next visit.“

“Wonderful sushi. They had Uni Nigiri at a very reasonable price. Saba Nigiri had Yuzu leaves on the top (not just green onion pieces) - that was a nice touch. Also real crab meat California Roll was very tasty. In addition, each piece of Nigiri sushi had a bit of wasabi underneath. That was excellent. I love this sushi spot. I will be returning.“

“Great sushi, very flavorful, fresh seafood, and lots of variety from traditional temaki to modern aburi styles. Single sushi chef so larger orders may take longer but the wait is worth it. Spicy sauce is on the sweeter side so can be enjoyed by all ages.“

“There’s a new Korean-Japanese restaurant on Davie Street with a simple and focused menu. They prepare their sushi and inari fresh in the kitchen, sticking to straightforward options like salmon, shrimp, beef, crab, and egg. The idea is easy but the execution is clean, and their packaging and design really make them stand out. One thing I like is how they handle inventory. From 8 pm to 10 pm they discount whatever is left by 20% and reset everything the next day. It’s efficient and gives customers a good deal late in the evening. Overall I enjoy their concept and think they bring healthy competition to Davie Street, especially for places like Sushi Society.“

“Where do I even begin. This experience was just that…an experience. Every single detail of our meal was meticulously thought out and considered. Chef Lee loves his craft and his passion for quality shows. From the moment you walk through the door it’s clear the night is one to remember.

Lee’s also assisted by his wonderful wife only making the experience that much better. It felt more like we’ve been invited to dinner at their home than at a restaurant.

Every ingredient, plate, cup and detail imaginable was carefully selected. You’re truly paying to watch someone prepare food they love and it last felt in each bite.

I haven’t left this wow’s after a meal in a long time and the recognition chef Lee and his team have gotten is well deserved.

We’ll definitely be returning again as the season changes to experience this again…CANT WAIT!!!“

“I LOVE Sushi Dragon! Its my go-to spot in my neighbourhood. The service is always great, the sushi is fresh, affordable and consistently good! I'm a regular here and have never been disappointed. <3 Support this small, family owned business!“

“Fantastic place. Excited to go again.“

“Joon's kitchen, once again my experience at your place is a 10/10. Food is always spectacular but the real enjoyment comes from the staff. My server Connie and I had a great convo about keeping your plants healthy and happy. (I love that). And Kevin (chef) let me taste test some of there delicious homemade sauces. 😋

Can't wait till next time... keep up the great work.

P.S.. The music is great and at the perfect volume. Lol.. something that really makes or breaks my mood in restaurants these days...“

“Possibly my favourite sushi place ever. The food is absolutely amazing, the oshi tastes the same quality as places like miku but it 5x cheaper and it’s take out. It closes at 7 and I came in a 6:58 like a rude person and they still put so much effort and patience in to making my food amazing even though they knew it wasn’t my first time trying the dish. Excellenct service and the food is very special.“

“We got the teriyaki boxes, and everything was amazing! The chicken was tender and flavorful on a fresh bed of lettuce and bean sprouts, with crispy spring rolls, a citrusy salad, flaky tempura, a delicious roll (we had Dynamite and California), and warm miso soup. Everything was fresh, tasty, and made with care. Great service too! Definitely a new favorite on Renfrew!“

“After hearing about this place, I’ve wanted to visit, and I finally had the chance to do so. The owner and staff greeted me warmly, which made me feel comfortable.

The Miso Soup wasn’t too salty, which I liked, and the dressing on the fried chicken and vegetables complemented the dish really well, making it delicious.

The Salmon Aburi melted in my mouth as soon as I took a bite. It was so tender and flavorful.

Next time, I’d like to try the CUPBOP.

A note: The sign is small, so you might miss it if you’re not paying attention. It’s a good idea to keep your eyes open and look carefully when you’re nearby.“

“Fresh, Delicious, Beautiful; friendly service. Chef’s Menu was just awesome.“

“If you like good sushi, at a fair price, then you’ll enjoy Sumire sushi. A great family run restaurant with friendly staff. They make their own hot sauce and it’s delicious.“

“The best rainbow roll in town. It is their sushi rice that really makes a difference. It is a tiny little place, but the service is always good, and their food is top notch. In my book, this is the most authentic and best Japanese restaurant that I have been to. Thank you, Hitoe, for my weekly delicious rainbow roll!“

“One of my favorite sushi spots. I normally order for pickup but decided to eat in yesterday. Portions are great, I love the ahi combo. I’ll always have extra for the next day. The fish is always fresh and I have enjoyed everything I’ve tried. Service wasn’t great, server unfortunately had a lot of attitude towards us, but maybe she was having a bad day so I’ll give the benefit of the doubt. Besides that, a lovely time as always.“

“I come all the time for the vietnamese coffee! The lady is so friendly and nice and service is always fast. Food is also delicious. I reccommend the tofu banh mi and the vegetarian sushi, but everything we’ve tried has been incredible. One of my favorite spots in Point Grey!“

“This sushi restaurant is one of the best I’ve ever had when it comes to their sashimi freshness and roll quality. The portions are far more than you could expect at a very reasonable price. Should I be back in Vancouver I will be certain to visit again!“

“delicious a wonderful Sapporo and set happy hour oishii 😊❤️🌎“

“Volcano Sushi and Grill is hands down one of the best places to eat if you love high-quality, flavorful food and great service. Everything I’ve tried has been incredibly fresh, from the sushi rolls to the grilled dishes, and the presentation always looks amazing. The sushi is generously portioned, well-balanced, and clearly made with care, while the grill items are cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. On top of that, the staff are extremely friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which makes the whole experience feel comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish. The service is fast without feeling rushed, the restaurant is clean and well-kept, and the overall atmosphere is relaxed but still feels special. Whether you’re going for a casual meal, a night out with friends, or a family dinner, Volcano Sushi and Grill never disappoints and consistently delivers great food and an excellent dining experience.“

“Amazing and so yummy!!!!!!! I want to try everything on the menu“

“Such a great spot! Very casual and extremely quick to serve. Every part of my meal was wonderful. I had a few the gommae, tako sunomono, miso soup, and 6 pieces of niguri. All were very fresh and nicely presented. I will definitely be back!“

“We have lived in this area for 25yrs and never tried out Dami....don't know why. Maybe because nobody we know recommends it here. Glad we came out on a Saturday for lunch on a rainy day because my eldest daughter was craving for Korean seafood pancake.

The seafood pancake is thick and looks like pizza hut pizza! If you like crunchy and fluffy dough then this is good. The best value for your money is the chicken katsu and chicken don rice bowls. Very tasty and lots of chicken!

The sushi rolls are priced well too. Mow we have an extra place to go for food near by. Convenience is nice when going out with 6 ppl. Very spacious inside and they play Japanese music.

Our meal for 6 of us only came to $79 + tip!? And we had take out....I spend that much sometimes having lunch meetings fir 2 ppl. We will be back!“

“I learned so much about caring for infants here; it's such a welcoming, warm, and safe place to hang out with your friends and talk about what really matters in life.
Oh, and the sushi is GOOD.
(I highly recommend the secret menu, that's not so secret)“

“Best sushi restaurant in the Joyce collingwood area. Friendly staff and always quick with their orders!“

“We left a nearby sushi restaurant and came here for the larger portions, half the price, and faster service. It’s very much a take out place with basic dine in service. The sushi is fresh and my partner prefers the chicken teriyaki here above nearby options.“

“Great ambiance and exactingly prepared nigiri is what Maumi is all about. Extensive sake list and some nice Champagnes.“

“Excellent, exclusively gluten free Japanese restaurant.“

“I recommend everything. No, really. They've always outdone themselves and put quality first for years. You can taste the difference. Go out and treat yourself. Best sushi in the 'hood.“

“We love the taste of california roll and very cozy place with friendly people🥰“

“Absolutely fabulous! We ordered two veggie Bento boxes and a side of edamame everything was great! Some of the best Japanese food I've ever had and such a surprise in the Amtrack station would definitely consider booking another train ride just to eat there!“

“Every grain of rice, every slice of fish contains the weight of their dedication and respect to the food and culture.

It was an edible performance!

We tried their lunch menu first and It was such a wonderful experience.

We will definitely return for the dinner course!

Michelin well deserved!“

“Great little spot for an elevated sushi experience. It’s a very small restaurant so make a reso. The attentive but non-disruptive service is appreciated, as the tables are quite small so the tidying is a nice touch. The prices are not cheap, for example, my nigiri set was $65. Pay street parking is available so arrive early for your reso to snag a spot nearby.“

“Momo Sushi is a small Japanese restaurant with a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel at home the moment you walk in. The food is fresh, flavourful, and prepared with real care , every dish feels like it was crafted just for you.

A special highlight was the service. Our server, originally from South Korea, was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely made the experience even better. Their warm hospitality brought an extra charm to the meal.

To the wonderful team at Momo Sushi: Arigato and gamsahamnida for an unforgettable dining experience. I will definitely be back! 🍣“

“Late night sushi, right before they close, the service was impeccable, the warm welcome and service we received were excellent! They definitely deserve an excellent recommendation. The food was wonderful! Everything is fresh and just delicious.“

“Amazing sushi with great presentation🙂my new “best sushi in Riley Park area”....beats Dream Sushi with more authentic, better quality experience“

“Absolutely love this Japanese market! I was able to find a great selection of high-quality Japanese food here. The aburi sushi was especially delicious — so flavorful and melt-in-your-mouth good!

The service was also wonderful. The staff were kind and attentive, always ready to help, but never intrusive. It made the whole shopping experience feel very pleasant and relaxed.

Highly recommended! I’ll definitely be coming back. 🍣🇯🇵✨“

“Highly recommend this new restaurant, Kirala Sushi, that opened on Dunbar recently (replacing Wild Sushi). Delicious sushi with a wide menu to choose from. We loved the creative chef’s specials, particularly the samurai roll. This will be our new go-to sushi place and we look forward to returning!“

“jack is a great great worker. He always brings the mood up for everyone around him and looks very handsome doing so. If you read this Jack, I want to go to the Mahon Skatepark this summer when I am there. PPS Your doing great buddy. Until we meet again, merry christmas!“
