my family’s go to for AYCE sushi. been going here for as long as i can remember, so the owners practically know us. service is great, and sushi is good !
We have been to this restaurant before & didnt find the food to be anything better than food court quality in a mall but thought wed stop in on our way to pick up family at YVR as we didnt have a great deal of time to search out a decent restaurant. Arrived at 6:25, table for 2 & 1/2 ( 1 1/2yo grandson in tow)… was told there would be a 20 wait, not bad decided to wait. 6:50-ish found out there was a party of 73 arriving on a tour bus…not seated until 7:35…we were shown to an empty table, no menus, no waitress…sit there …7:45 stood up and left as no one had even ventured near our table. Choose for yourself, busy yes, even worse service. Wont be going back under any circumstances. Done.
From Hero to ZeroI used to frequent Richmond Sushi for the past 20 years (ever since they have opened). I am no stranger to all-you-can-eat sushi. I know (and accept) the quality would not be the same as an a-la-carte restaurant. Having said that, this place used to be my favorite due to the value (quality, variety, vs price paid).Since then, prices have steadily increased, and quality has steadily decreased. They have gradually removed a lot of the good items (starting from the chicken knee, to the negitoro cone, to the chicken wings), and have decreased the quality markedly.The fish quality is very poor and small pieces now (almost feels like its end cuts). There is hardly any filling inside the cones, and overall, the cooked food is bland and has tastes reheated. I almost feel that there has been a change of ownership to warrant such dreastic measures (even in the past 6 months, quality has dropped tremendously). However, I still see many of the same staff and management there, so maybe they are just getting tired of running this place.On an unrelated note, their hot pot establishment (Top Gun Hot Pot) used to be my favorite, but even its quality has run downhill to the point I no longer go there.I maintain that there are many better choices in this competitive dining environment. I understand they are trying to profit maximize, and customers vote with their wallet. But their cost minimization has come to a point where it is far from acceptable to me.Wish I could give it a better review, despite it being one of my favorite AYCE sushi places. Hope it can be resurrected to its glory. But given what has transpired over the past 20 years, I am doubtful.
Nasty the worst sushi place I have ever been all the fish is farmed fish. This place is the grossest place I have ever eaten I was forcing the food down. Ended up getting pizza on the way home
Haven’t been here in about 4 years. I used to go all the time since they first opened. Went in tonight for AYCE dinner and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food.Some friends of mine who were also regulars here had told me that they had experienced a couple of poor quality dinners and had sworn the place off. As Richmond Sushi is kind of off the main bus route, it was just easier for me to go to another AYCE sushi restaurant.After about 4 years, the manager recognized me the moment I walked in, we had a table within 5 minutes and noticed many changes in the dinner menu.Started out with the usual sashimi, nigiri sushi and rolls- all good. Only issue was a loosely wrapped dynamite roll that fell apart the instant I picked it up.Tried out a number of new-to-me menu items like the deep fried scallops, shrimp bombs, and other items I can’t name right now. Got an order of Beef short ribs – absolutely wonderful! – best I’ve ever had – ordered 2 more!The wait staff were very attentive. A couple of orders got lost in the kitchen but were quickly brought to the table when we asked about them.All in all, an excellent meal, well worth the cost, service was good. Nothing really to complain about. Don’t know what put my friends off, but didn’t see anything that would cause me not to come back in the future. In fact, I’m looking forward to going back again soon!
Sorry another real stinker. Was there for lunch the other day as i was in the area and was in a hurry. I should have walked out as the place at around 12:45 had very few people in it. Absolutely with out any doubt the worst (can’t call it sushi) I have ever had. I have lived in the lower mainland for over 12 years and this place takes the cake….but they would probably ruin a cake as well. Service was good but pretty much all the food was terrible. I suspect they are trying to cater to us non-Asians and can think they can get away with it. I will never darken the door way again….I recommend you go down the way in the plaza and but raw turnip and it it first before you waste you time money and stomach on this place….sorry it was awful.
I’m always forced to eat here with my family because they like their geoduck… but me? It’s very mediocre and very expensive for an AYCE place. Don’t expect good service here when coming in for dinner.. because it’s always busy. I understand that there aren’t any better ayce places around here… so we all gotta stick with what we have.
