There was a point where this was my favorite sushi establishment many years ago but nowadays it seems like they’ve lost their passion. Their sushi rolls are built terribly, falling apart the moment your chopsticks hit them. I don’t know why the place is still busy. I keep going back now and then to see if they have regained their mojo but they haven’t. With that said our service was very good and the Moody Fever roll is probably one of my favorite rolls of all time despite it being made poorly, it still had that flavor.
7:15 PM on a Tuesday, I arrive and wait at the counter. No less than three waitresses acknowledge my presence, but do nothing else. After ten full minutes, one approaches the desk, asks how many of me there are, then answers the phone. When that call is over, she answers another one on another line. With hand gestures she tells another server to seat me but nothing happens. A third call comes in and after fifteen full minutes I give up.
My husband and I were craving for sushi one night, and all our other local go-to sushi joints were already closed. I have been to the Nagano in Port Moody and it was pretty good, but I remembered it was kind of expensive. We had never been to this location and thought we would give it a try. We ordered a few safe staples like California roll, cucumber roll, house roll and a couple of cooked items like a chicken udon and croquette. When I picked up a piece of California roll, the entire piece fell apart before it reached my plate. We later realized that the sushi was so wet from the vinegar that the rice wouldn’t hold together. That was highly disappointing for a restaurant that charged a premium for that simple roll. The udon was also very bland. Overall, we felt this restaurant charges too much for less than mediocre quality of food. There are far better Japanese restaurants in the area for less.
Today was my first time eating here. I was thoroughly impressed! The dcor is so authentic Japanese and sets the mood for the dining experience. The service was friendly and consistent during my visit. My water was never empty and I didn’t wait long for anything. I tried the chicken teriyaki bento box and it was magnificent! The salad was incredible, the tempura was perfectly battered, the Miso soup was divine, and the chicken was scrumdiddlyumptious!!!! Also included was a piece of super yummy deep fried tofu and two deep fried salmon balls. Excellent value considering the entire meal was only 11.99! The food was so delicious, that I will definitely be back! Next time I’m going to try the sushi!
Always good food, service is always excellent. If you want good quality sushi and best all around… This is the place. Love the hot sauce used on spicy salmon sashimi
Came back to try Nagano after they were burnt down. Nagano is a higher-end sushi place in Coquitlam. However, service was mediocre. The server forgot things on several occasions. I expected more from the higher price range.
I’ve never paid so much for a avocado and dynamite roll, I’ve also never waited so long for just to rolls (at 25 minutes) and this was a simple take out order. Rip-off!
