50 Best Sushi Bars in Vancouver

“We had such a wonderful experience on March 17, 2026 at Miku Japanese Restaurant at River Rock Hotel. From the moment we arrived, the service was truly top-notch—the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and made us feel genuinely cared for. What really stood out was their thoughtfulness and attentiveness. As soon as they noticed that one of our friends was wearing a veil and the rest of us had our Team Bride sashes on, they kindly arranged a private dining room for us. It made the celebration feel even more special and intimate. The ambience was also fantastic—cool, relaxing, and enhanced by a great selection of music. The warm, Japanese-style décor added a beautiful and authentic touch to the overall dining experience. We also appreciated the complimentary non-alcoholic drinks, especially since we had decided not to drink before going swimming. It was such a considerate gesture that didn’t go unnoticed. And of course, the food was amazing—every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience with exceptional service, thoughtful touches, and incredible food. Highly recommended for special occasions!“

“Delicious veggie sushi!!!!“

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

“Before heading to the Gastown Steam Clock, I grabbed salmon avocado roll and spicy tuna roll for to go. The food came out quickly, and the quality was pretty good for the price. Next time, I’d like to dine in and try some of their special rolls.“

“Asa Sushi is a great spot if you're craving both Japanese and Korean cuisine. The food is consistently solid, with plenty of delicious options to choose from.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the girls working there were especially kind and attentive to my 8-year-old, which made our visit even more enjoyable. The restaurant has a lively, welcoming vibe and is usually busy—a good sign that it's a local favorite.

If you're looking for good food, great service, and a fun atmosphere, Asa Sushi is definitely worth a visit!“

“I recently received a lunch box as a gift, and the food tasted absolutely amazing. The variety of dishes was wonderful, and above all, I could really feel the care and effort put into it. I’d love to visit the restaurant in person if I get the chance!“

“Great food great service great prices more than fair their combos are pretty well-priced especially. Their dynamite roll is easily the best dynamite roll I have had in a long time. The place is small; that said, however, dine-in is availabl and they do also have tables outside. it is a little cramped but nothing too claustrophobic ...
side note: if you have claustrophobia maybe order to-go..
service was phenomenal the workers are all very friendly the atmosphere is welcoming and the food, most importantly, is delicious. would absolutely eat here again“

“We only came in for a couple pieces as we were headed somewhere else. I really wish we stayed because the smoked salmon and regular salmon were outstanding! Just the right amount of rice so you can actually taste the fish. Service was quick and they seem to get a lot of take out.“

“So, this was my first time here and i enjoyed some of the finer details: the Miso soup was some of the best ive ever tasted and the green tea was lovely and delicious. I enjoyed my table that overlooked the bustle on Commercial drive.

My chicken teriyaki was terrific and elevated --- i appreciated the different veggies (brussels? Red peppers? Zuchinni? I was delighted at the addition of these --- much cooler than the usual bean sprouts, cabbage et al.) on the hot skillet. My soft shell crab was great, but would have been great to share.
A terrific meal, i will be back 💯“

“Sushi Hyun Omakase is an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment we arrived, Chef Hyun greeted us with genuine warmth, telling us that this was his dream restaurant—a space he built from the ground up to share his passion. Throughout the evening, he spoke with reverence about his ingredients, working exclusively with wild fish from Japan, and about the trust he’s built with both his customers and suppliers. Each dish was crafted with precision and care, and his storytelling made every bite even more meaningful. The wine list is equally impressive, thoughtfully curated to complement the menu. Chef Hyun’s dedication shines through in every detail, making this not just a meal but a deeply personal experience. I would return in a heartbeat and recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone who values exceptional food and genuine hospitality.“

“Incredible food!!!! Husband and I enjoyed the premiere Omakase meal and it was unreal and unforgettable! Every bite was delicious but it was so cool to watch the chef prepare each piece of fish. It was quiet and delicate and very clear the care and effort required for this meal. We’re from out of town but this was such a great find and experience for us!!“

“chef's specials, excellent service“

“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!“

“I discovered this place by accident while walking by, and I’m so glad I did! It feels like a hidden gem The atmosphere is cozy, warm, and welcoming.

The sushi was incredibly fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients.

Vancouver has no shortage of sushi restaurants, but this one truly stands out. It’s almost a place I want to keep secret because it’s that good!

If you’re looking for great sushi in Vancouver, this spot is definitely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be back! 🍣✨
Highly recommended!“

“Bursting with fillings and flavour, so it's worth the higher cost for a piece of sushi 😘 I really enjoyed my 3-piece afternoon snack with beef, salmon and scallop, each nicely layered on a solid piece of sushi wrapped in my favourite deep-fried beancurd!! Also came with a good warm cup of miso soup on-the-house. Nice and neat interior with both indoor seating with a huge window facing the street, as well as outdoor terrace seating. Very friendly and patient staff who explain how things work and even give good recommendations! Overall wonderful experience and happy to visit again for another snack or even a full meal 👍🏻“

“Had a great experience at Tom Sushi for dinner last night. Everything tasted great, was brought out quickly and with very friendly service. My only observation would be that the sashimi could be cut a little thinner, as it’s a big chunk of fish. But the taste, portion size, and value for money is absolutely great!“

“We did the omakase dinner and added on the chawanmushi towards the end because we just love eating that. Everything was so fresh and well seasoned. We were so amazed at the crab dish which is slightly grilled to give it extra aroma! We will definitely be back again ❤️“

“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.“

“I grab lunch here often and it’s always excellent. Delicious, fresh sushi with generous portions (rolls are absolutely loaded with fish), but I also highly recommend the banh mi.

The owner is sooo friendly and kind; my only complaint is service can be on the slower end sometimes as it’s a one-person show, but easily worth it for the quality food. Local must-try!“

“Fantastic place. Excited to go again.“

“This is what a neighborhood sushi place should be! The food is fresh and the service is exceptional. We have been here several times and we were never disappointed. If you are near Granville and Broadway, you must give this place a try!

May 2026 Update. We continue to be very satisfied each time we order from this small Sushi shop, consistent quality and service. They have expanded their menu and the new items are also excellent.“

“We almost always have a great meal here. Unfortunately, I don't have many photos, but their sashimi and other raw seafood are always incredibly fresh and delicious. We love most of the sushi and sashimi on the menu.

The bossam and Korean soups are always flavorful and satisfying. The japchae and bibimbap have been a bit hit or miss for us, but overall the food is consistently good.

This is definitely one of our go to spots. The food is comforting, and we always leave happy.“

“Me and my friend revisit the new site in September 2025! The menu doesn’t change! They still offer really good food and always above quality! The vibe is so good at the new site! They even have a robot machine. Will definitely revisit and revisit!

Service is really good! Foods are so fresh and hot! Will definitely revisit!
Ordered the food and delivered to my house. Food is still really fresh. The sashimi is really large piece.My most favorite Japanese place!!

Revisited in July 2026, and the food is still really good! I think the prices have increased, but they’re still very reasonable. I always order the combo with sushi, chicken wings, and scallop sushi for around $27. It’s still a great value for the price.“

“This location posts an impressive selection of sashimi, aburi, and nigiri. Although steeper in price, the sashimi platter contains the most delectable seafood in the region and generous quantity of lean and fatter fish varieties.
The presentation is excellent and the service goes above and beyond to ensure a welcoming and exquisite experience.
I will return when I am in the vicinity. Thank you.“

“Great food and excellent service! The Chicken Yaki Udon was delicious, with fresh ingredients and a flavorful sauce. The sushi and other dishes were also incredibly tasty and well-prepared. The food arrived hot and still steaming, which made the experience even better. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this restaurant to others!“

“Omg this place is a hidden gem, is so good. They do everything right from service to delicious food, even their tea is good haha. I came with my friends for the first time, we were starving and we were happy and amazed by how good the food was. Definitely coming back“

“Amazing Sushi, probably the best I've had on my recent trip to Vancouver. I would definitely go again next time I visit. Would highly recommend. I am not sure if they take reservations but there are only a handful of tables so might be worth a call.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Visiting Vancouver as the last leg of a cross-country trip and stumbled across Oku Izakaya. Even though the restaurant fully booked online we were swiftly seated. Great range of hot and cold Japanese food. Specifically the hot potatoes balls - would definitely go back for those alone!“

“It's a bit sad to see so many empty seats during a Saturday lunch. That said, the restaurant actually exceeded my expectations, especially considering its price point. The presentation is decent, but the food tastes much better than it looks.

The rice is lightly seasoned and complements the fillings well. The portions are generous—I couldn't finish mine. The filling-to-rice ratio is excellent, so every bite feels satisfying rather than being mostly rice. If I lived nearby, this would definitely be a place I'd visit regularly.“

“Highly recommend- great experience, delicious food!“

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

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

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

“Great sushi and we were not expecting it to be this good since it is a small place in the train station. We have picky kids and they even said it was the best sushi they have had in Vancouver. The man working the restaurant was super kind and talented. Worth the wait- highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Recommended here by one of our Nurse friends, so we dropped by for an early lunch today w/ my 2 coworkers. Sooo yummy! First impression? Delish!!! huge servings & the use of fluffy brown rice was the determining factor of the meal NOT being gastro-heavy! Very nice presentation! Good size servings! Will definitely return on another lunchbreak! yummmmmy!“

“A dedicated gluten-free Japanese restaurant?? Makes a grown man cry 🥹❤️ 100% recommend to all celiacs, but they have the worst hours. Always check before heading out because they a most likely closed already 😒“

“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.“

“ABURI Market offers high-end Japanese groceries shopping experience, and the prices are justified by the quality of ingredients and services.

This branch does not have as much products as the one in West Vancouver, but it offers enough essential products at a more convenient location for people who rely on the SkyTrain.

For more non-frozen products, visit the one in West Vancouver. The service here is as good as the other locations, which is the best service anyone will ever experience in Canada.

On my first visit, ABURI Sukiyaki Sauce was not sold at this branch, but a lot of frozen sashimi is available.“

“Popped in here quickly before my hair appointment to grab a bite, and I was excited to see they only served wild salmon.
Then I was even more excited when I got my food as the fish was incredibly fresh, and delicious. Everyone working there was very welcoming too - definitely recommend“

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

“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!“

“First time ordering from here and I’m impressed! 🍣 The sushi was super fresh and tasted amazing. Everything was well prepared and full of flavor. I also got a great deal — buy 1 get 1 free, which made it even better! Definitely will order again 👌“
