This place had a nice hole-in-the-wall feel but is obviously very popular. The food was delicious and the presentation was pleasant.We will definitely go back when we are in the area.
The best sushi in Vancouver.. worth the bus ride down Hastings . Fresh and fast sushi . Great service and dead cheap.. we ate like kings and queens. We would recommend this place.
Initial impression: small but packed and loud establishment, decent variety on menu, hole in the wall place that appears to value quick in-and-out service.Experience: the food and service were decent and on par with Sushi California. The Alaska roll was almost as good as SC and as I look over at the other tables, the slabs of sashimi appeared to be healthy in size; however, our chicken karaagetasted did not taste very fresh. My favourite part of my meal had to be the 5 pieces of nigiri I had: hamachi, unagi, toro, hotate, and inari. The rice had a subtle hint of vinegar, the way it should be. Unfortunately, they were out of the uni nigiri, which happened to be only $2.50. I mean, c’mon, you gotta try the uni if it’s only $2.50. Overall, we were looking to get in, have a quick meal, and get out. Mission accomplished.Lasting impression: would come back again for a quickie meal or take out. Hopefully they have the uni next time.
Quick service for take out orders despite the restaurant being occupied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Certainly will order from them again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On a recent trip to Vancouver, we were in a rush to have dinner before picking up a family member. My wife did a search and found Sushi Nanaimo which looked to fit the bill. When we walked in the place was packed and they told us it was a five minute wait. Five minutes later we were seated and perusing the menu. The first thought I had when I saw the prices was that the portions would be small. Was I ever wrong! We over-ordered by two rolls. The second thought I had was that the food would take a long time because of how busy it was. Wrong again. Our appetizers and entrees came out in less than ten minutes and everything was delicious and fresh. The Agedashi Tofu was piping hot and the Gangster, Canucks, and Unagi rolls were scrumptious. Sushi Nanaimo will absolutely be on our list of family favorites. We were all fed with delicious sushi at two thirds the price of a comparable meal in our hometown restaurant.
Amazing sushi at incredible prices! Sushi Nanaimo is an one of kind because they offer delicious rolls and combos at prices you really can’t find anywhere else. The Awesome roll and Nanaimo roll are my favourites and the Dinner for two combo is also excellent if you’re there with a friend. The service is always efficient and friendly so this my go to place when I’m in the neighbourhood.
We were in rush and wanted to eat something quickly in the neighbourhood. Most of the restaurants that we wanted to visit were closed on Family Day. We came to this Japanese restaurant. When we first stepped into the restaurant, the ambiance was okay. A lot of tables were packed and they were very close to each other. Customers (who did not know each other) sat very close to others. We could hear the conversations next to us and we could see what other customers were ordering and eating. We felt this restaurant was not clean. Fortunately we didn’t feel sick after lunch. We got a table right away. A server greeted us and brought us tea and gave us a menu. Their menu had a wide selection of food. Their prices were affordable. Probably it was the reason why this restaurant was highly rated and many customers came here for Japanese food. We ordered Maki party tray (42 pieces), tuna and salmon sashimi (9 pieces) and beef yaki udon. All of them were okay but not great. We had way better Japanese food somewhere else in Vancouver and the price point was reasonable and average. The quality of food and environment were better than Sushi Nanaimo. We probably wouldn’t come back here in the near future.
