1. Aki Restaurant - CLOSED
Wear your worst clothes!! No seriously...wear your worst clothes to Aki. They have no ventilation and grill everything in an open kitchen in the center of the restaurant. One of my favorite lunch spot, Aki serves the best grilled black cod in the…More »
2. Hitoe Sushi Japanese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6R 1N6
(778) 371-4619
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: Kitsilano
Omg, this place is so awesome. And it's cheap. Finally, a great sushi place close to home. The seafood was fresh and the service was good. It's run by Japanese people so you know it's good, and it's in an obscure location. All delicious Japanese…More »
3. Tokyo Thyme
Vancouver, BC V6M 3W5
(604) 263-3262
Category:
Japanese
Neighbourhoods: Kerrisdale, Arbutus Ridge
I have a lot of Japanese food, a LOT...and am sad that I did not discover this place earlier. It's probably the best place in greater Vancouver. A hidden gem for sure. The owner is really nice and the chef used to be from Tojos. I'm not sure what…More »
4. Sushi Hachi Japanese Restaurant
Richmond, BC V6X 3Z8
(604) 207-2882
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: Golden Village
Sushi Hachi has really fresh sushi. You can find selections here you can't find anywhere else, like blue fin tuna, aji, hirame...etc. They don't offer any cooked food, there's no kitchen, only a sushi bar. I'd go more often if it wasn't so far away…More »
5. Dream Sushi
Dream is Chinese run and not authentic; but the rolls they offer are so creative and so good. Their pricing is pretty low compared to their portions so it's great for value. Their menu is colorful and I don't remember what we had but we all had a…More »
6. Miku
Vancouver, BC V6E 2E9
(604) 568-3900
Categories:
Japanese,

Neighbourhoods: Coal Harbour, Downtown
I'd give Miku 5 stars if the food didn't come so slow for dinner. Though I feel it's a bit overpriced,they put a lot of effort into the dishes and always have specials; a giant list of specials. The waiter will scream them out all in one breath so…More »
7. Ajisai Sushi Bar
Vancouver, BC V6M 2B4
(604) 266-1428
Categories:
Sushi Bars,
Butcher
Neighbourhood: Kerrisdale
Ajisai is one of the best Japanese restaurants in town; just as good as Tokyo Thyme but more traditional. They have the best seafood salad in the city because they add cornflakes. For some reason Japanese people put cornflakes in the weirdest dishes…More »
8. Motomachi Shokudo
I've never had real ramen in Japan but Motomachi is the best place in town. Everywhere else has a lot of MSG and is really salty; if I have ramen anywhere else I get really thirty all night. They're supposed to be organic but who really knows? I…More »
9. Guu With Garlic
Vancouver, BC V6G 1C7
(604) 685-8678
Categories:
Japanese,
Tapas Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
This is the best Guu out of all of them. The worst is Richmond; don't even bother going to that one. Guu was one of my first discoveries after moving to Vancouver 10 years ago and it was more heavenly back then. It could also be because it was new to…More »
10. Torarenbo
Other than bad service, which you can expect from Richmond, Torarenbo could be the best sushi place in Richmond. Ichiro in Steveston has good noodles, but it's so far. Torarenbo used to have a lobster set dinner for two, I'm not sure if they have it…More »
11. Gyoza King
I normally don't write reviews for places unless I REALLY like them...Gyoza King is just okay, but I have to write something because they have the best nabeyaki udon in the city. Their soup base is SO GOOD and their egg is always just right. It's the…More »
