Must-Try Vancouver Sushi Restaurants
"Owned by world-renowned celebrity chef Hidekazu Tojo, Tojo's is arguably the most famous Vancouver sushi restaurant: It's a favorite among celebrities and locals alike. Joe Perry of Aerosmith is just one of the many stars who love this Vancouver landmark, declaring to the Georgia Straight that "It wouldn't be a stop in Vancouver if I didn't go there at least once." Although Tojo's does offer a la carte options, it's famous for its omakase ("leave it up to us") dinners: After asking about your likes and dislikes, Chef Tojo et al create a customized dinner just for you. The only downside to this sushi haven is the price: Omakase dinners run $80 - $180 per person."

10 Best Sushi Restaurants in Vancouver
"Locals can tell you it was photo-friendly chef Hidekazu Tojo himself who invented the California roll, though there are plenty more elusive creations to taste at his eponymous, special-occasion-ready restaurant. Order the omakase—it changes regularly, but if you’re lucky the silken, ginger-glazed sablefish, marinated albacore tuna, and snapper with rum sauce will appear alongside sashimi, nigiri, and tempura. Black sesame panna cotta or green tea crème brûlèe round out the experience."

"Kingsway's Sushi by Yuji is a small space so get here early to get a seat and be sure to order the Japanese gunkan style sushi (topped with fish roe), chopped scallop rolls and the delicate quails egg dishes. Affordable and generous in portion size (think thick-cut hamachi sashimi), this hole-in-the-wall joint is an East Vancouver gem. Price: Budget-friendly/mid-range"

Review: Top new Vancouver restaurants of 2017
"It takes audacity to open a 26-seat temple to Michelin-style fine dining on Vancouver's rowdiest, beachside beer-patio stroll. To make it work requires even greater talent, which husband-and-wife partners Makoto Ono and Amanda Cheng have in spades. A laser-focused duo of seasonal tasting menus (one, a six-course chef's dégustation; the other, a three-course demi) seemed smartly suited to the tiny modernist room cast in raw concrete, warm wood and stretched leather."

This Kitsilano restaurant was recently chosen as one of Canada’s top new restaurants for 2017 by enRoute magazine, and we have to wholeheartedly agree with that choice. From decadent Chef’s tasting menus to limited-time fusion brunches, this French-Japanese eatery was fourth on the annual list, and it was also the only restaurant in BC that made the top 10."

Displayed proudly in the middle of their dining room are thick cuts of beef with a pink and orange wall of Himalayan salt bricks sitting behind the meat, naturally purifying the air and removing any moisture.
