Probably one of my favorite omakase places I've tried thus far, and totally worth the price. I would recommend sitting at the bar counter, as if allows you to talk to the sushi chef and see their performance.I really enjoyed the rice (was a bit warmer than most places, as the master wanted), and the fish they used were most unique and very tasty. The progression of the omakase was well balanced and thoughtful. I really enjoyed their pickled ginger and pickled apples.The service was definitely on par with the food, as they were very attentive and helpful throughout the meal with selections and choices.Definitely ask the sushi chef what else they have in their stock that may not be included in the menu.My only issue I have is that I'd wish the tamago dashi yaki was just plainly given with more dashi flavor. Although I did appreciate the brulee, I found the tamago dashi yaki a bit too sweet.Overall, highly recommended, and will come back again.

Tetsu has been my preferred choice for many years, especially when I began my omakase exploration. Despite a decline in quality (esp now after I found other spots) I still find enjoyment in the experience. Typically, I opt for items from the à la carte menu, focusing on my favorite specials. To see the details, refer to my bill.

This was my first time having omakase. It was a great experience. The sushi and all the other dishes tasted excellent, and the menu had a lot of variety to it. The place has a very cozy feel to it, with only a few tables. We came at the last reservation time slot before close, and we basically had the place to ourselves. The server was very nice and on top of everything the whole time.

Incredible fish quality. My favourites are the zuke maguro don, bluefin, and shima-aji nigiri.

Went for the Omakase and was blown away by the experience. Servers were on top of it, making sure you always had a beverage at arm's reach.Chef was very friendly and sushi was very fresh.

Food was fresh & good. Service was great. Nigiri based menu. We did ask for the uni to be added, but the server forgot. So we let that go. Nothing really stood out on the menu that would make us want to go back.

20/10. The staff was so kind. The experience was the perfect. They were very accommodating to my specific request and such an amazing night my fiancé and I will never forget. Best sushi in
My favourite Omakase in town!!The ingredients are fresh, the food is creative, the decor is cozy, and the prices are reasonable. You can feel the sincerity of the store to its customers and the dedication to the food.Great for a hangout with close friends. I have recommended this place to many others. Will definitely be returning more often.

Small little shop off Robson. The food was great and the sushi rice was perfect. The progression of the menu was well though out with the fattiest fish at the end.My favorite dishes was the chilled local corn soup, shimaaji, ji kinmedai. Coffee pudding was amazing as well.The only thing I'd change is the chawan mushi

We had the best meal here celebrating our anniversary. It was authentic, cozy and brought us back to Japan for a couple of hours. Chef was extremely meticulous when it came to preparing and plating each sushi and it was a joy to watch his work live. Would definitely like to return!

This place is overrated. Jin Sushi is much better in terms of food quality, portions, variety and creativity of the dishes. $500 for 2 people… You should go elsewhere. Staff is nice but the ambience is way too quiet and the chefs barely speak to you at the sushi bar. I would never go back again and in fact I left upset with the experience. I’ve had much better Omakase at other restaurants. Lacks a wow factor for the price point.
