My girlfriend and I were visiting Vancouver to attend a concert and decided to visit for an omakase dinner. The entire experience was very pleasant and Chef Tom was a great host. From the food to the conversation we both left very satisfied. We’re aiming to dine there again in the future!

Honestly one of the better experiences for omakase because of how personal the Chef and staff made us feel. The quality of the fish was excellent as well. I will definitely be coming back.

Chef Tom and his wife hosted a superb premium omakase for us celebrating my friend’s 40th.

The tempo and evolution of the courses was remarkable.

So conscientious and thoughtful.

It was an easy Friday night, unforgettable for our standards.

The uni pasta and delectable hand rolls wow.

Easily paid double in SF.

Unbelievable value for this set menu omakase experience. I've had premium omakase in five countries and this one was the highest value / price ratio i've had so far. Honeslty, would have expected to pay double for the quality. In London you would pay 4x for this quality.

Highlights were the scallop dish and surprisingly the pasta - the head chef was also crosstrained as an italian chef - and the pasta with a japanese twist was such an incredible surprise.

It was pretty quiet for our 5:30 dinner, so this definitely feels like a hidden Vancouver gem. Get in now so you can say you were there before it was cool.

Amazing dinner! We were the only people at our sitting, so we essentially had our own private chef in Tom. He explained each dish in great detail. All the sauces and dips were made by him. Highlights were the scallop aburi, the foie gras temaki, and the fabulous pasta with uni, caviar, and truffle. You must try this place

One of the premier omakase spots in Vancouver. Chef Tom’s sushi and sake pairings are beautifully complimentary. A great value for the price, would highly recommend!

We just had their premium lunch omakase here. The food is AH-MAZING! I love that each dish is so exciting and unexpected. They are not just nigiri after nigiri. Chef Tom was so kind, took his time to explain each and how to eat each best. I especially love all his self made sauces from salad dressing to the soysauce! Who makes their own soy sauce anyway? Chef Tom! Thank you so much. We appreciate your craft very much. Left with such a happy and full belly. They went above and beyond for a bday and our anniversary with music on projector and even disco lights! Already sending my parents there next week for a meal with Chef Tom. You must try this place for yourself.

Amazing food and service. Writes down each guest's name and reason for celebration. Celebrated birthdays and anniversaries with guests.
Had omakase. Great food at good price. fun creative variety of dishes. Sauces made in house. Real wasabi. One of the better omakase I've had, and a plus is the price is reasonable.

Amazing family dinner with Chef Tom and staff. Chef provided a great omakase experience for the kids and superb explanation of each dish to the older folks. Next time the sake pairings! Do not delay a reservation is necessary.
