Located in the vibrant neighbourhood of Yaletown, Minami follows the pioneering footsteps of its sister restaurant, Miku, in delivering the innovative dining experience of Aburi cuisine to Vancouver's thriving food scene. Each piece of sushi is flame-seared using a blowtorch and binchotan (oak charcoal), resulting in sushi with a smoky aroma and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.

    I reserved a table and specifically requested a quiet area as possible. I was given a table beside a very noisy group and had to request an alternate table of which there were many options but none were offered. It took a long time for a server to approach our table. I actually had to ask the bartender to send a server over to take our meal requests. The miso soup was delivered Luke warm (not hot) and although the sashimi looked impressive, the taste was OK but not worth the $40 per plate that we ordered. Overall, very disappointed. Not sure that I would go back!

    I went for my boyfriend’s birthday! We went there at 2:30 reservations so even though it was weekend it was half empty which was very nice for us! I hate tight sitting area but here so much space between tables I loved that! Feel pretty private. Food was pretty good it wasn’t outstanding taste but I think it’s worth for the price. We ordered “champagne roll” and “Minami zen” which is a bento box with few dishes, portion was ok but we were full after the meal. Since we tried little dishes from this set we will visit again with main entry! Also Nigiri sushi was great quality.
