   Both of us enjoyed the fresh sashimi very much and believe it’s the best we’ve had in Vancouver. The service was good although part of our order had to be ordered again. We’ll return soon!

   This was the first time visiting and we went for late lunch, so was not crowded. Service was great and very attentive. My husband order teriyaki chicken which was prepared differently than in other Japanese restaurants - sliced va hole chicken breast. The flavor was very good. I had the chirachi bowl which had quite a bit of sashimi on it. Good variety of fish that had a fresh taste. The red tuna was unfortunately tasteless. I also ordered a unagii, which was excellent. A nice size piece and perfectly grilled.

   Amazing bartender. Fantastic cocktails. This girl nailed every cocktail with fantastic presentation all while being by herself and STILL making sure we always had everything we needed. Great date night in the bar sitting area!! Sushi rolls are on point. Not your wanna be sushi place stuffed with cheap fillers of cream cheese and over rolled in rice.

   I wanted to surprise my wife with a date night and Sushi is one of her faves. From the look and feel to the attention to detail in style and dish presentation we knew this was going to be great—we were not let down. From the edamame to sashimi and spicy tuna roll we were impressed. Great atmosphere, service, and high quality sushi. Definitely recommend.

    The worst “service” if you can call it that. Our server literally would walk by looking the other direction. Waited an hour after ordering, still waiting for 50% of our meal but people who ordered 30 minutes or more after had all items. Sad part, the food that we received was top tier. By far the best sushi I’ve had in the 360. It’s sad the company rather not have a manager present (did not see one the 90 minutes we were there) and left our server ( Ivor J) who obviously wasn’t ever trained nor did he care about hospitality. Ivor would walk by us looking the other way and I had to genuinely yell to get his attention the third time he walked by our table. Even the table behind us was cracking up. It’s rare to leave a restaurant hungry but we weren’t the only ones. Another group a table away left because they didn’t expect to spend 2 hours at dinner.
