This place is packed usually.  The first time we came around 7:30 and the wait was probably 30 to 45 minutes.  We decided to come back another day right when they opened for dinner.

We ordered their salmon sashimi, spicy tuna roll, chopped scallop…More »

Sushi Garden is great value for your money.  Rolls are cheap, but still have lots of flavour.  If you're going around a meal time, be prepared to wait for a table.  They're pretty fast about turning tables, but the wait could still be awhile.…More »

Came here for lunch and it was delicious.  The place wasn't too busy, but still had customers.  Service was unhurried and fast.  For lunch, its approx $12 and I don't think the menu is all that different from dinner.  Their beef is definitely thin…More »

Ordered the crunch roll, and the fuji roll off of the chef's recommendation.  The crunch roll is primarily a californa roll (I think) with mango and coconut on top.  Sweet and crunch - very unique and its a pretty good pairing.  The Fuji roll is a…More »

Delicious sushi and sashimi for a very reasonable price.  Ordered the assorted sushi which came with 7 pieces nigiri and 6 pieces tuna maki.  Also got a spicy tuna roll, which was actually spicy and delicious, and the Shiro roll which has tuna,…More »

With a name like Sushi Town I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised.  The service was quick, but friendly and our food came quickly.  I ordered the spicy tuna roll and the salmon maki roll.  I shared a yam tempura order as well.

Yummy well priced sushi right in the centre of Richmond.  Came here slightly after the dinner rush.  Parking was a nightmare though - the lot is shared with a number of other restaurants which are all pretty busy.  

We sat at the sushi bar, but as…More »

$20 for AYCE dinner (lite) was a pretty good deal.  There was a deluxe menu for $2 more each, but when we asked the server what the main difference was he said something about toro sashimi and oysters.  There was oyster motoyaki on the lite menu so…More »

Yum!  Delicious ramen for a good price.  I was stuffed after I finished my bowl.  I ordered the Shio ramen.  The broth was flavourful and delicious.  I also ordered their rice balls with pork and wow those were amazing.  Just writing about them makes…More »

I really enjoyed my ramen here.  I ordered the miso chashu and it was really tasty.  The broth had many flavours it in, but I found it a bit salty (not necessary a bad thing considering the salt fiend that I am).  It went well with the noodles.  I…More »

After all the fabulous reviews on yelp I decided to finally give this place a try.  The outside of the restaurant looks unassuming and a little sketchy, but once inside it is very well decorated - I especially liked the chopsticks decorations behind…More »

Good price for all you can eat sushi and korean bbq.  $13 for lunch - great deal.  Go on a weekend and you'll get korean bbq as well (I think weekdays is only sushi).  Usually this place is packed on the weekend, but we were there on a holiday and…More »

I left Sushiyama not very satisfied.  Full, but not satisfied.  After reading all the reviews here, I was excited to try this place, but it wasn't what everyone hyped it up to be.  We started off with salmon sashimi.  The pieces were HUGE but not…More »

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet.  I LOVE Hime sushi.  So flavourful, so fresh, so delicious (I couldn't come up with another word that started with F).  They're sort of hidden between a Starbucks and the Rhizome Cafe and…More »

I think I'm in love.  With so many sushi joints and more spring up every day, Zipang definitely stands out from the crowd.  The menu was very different than most.  There is takoyaki and Japanese pizzas among other interesting things.

We ordered way…More »
