Ki-Isu Sushi - Vancouver, British Columbia

Visited Ki Isu for lunch yesterday and had a pretty good time! We had one of the combos, some Yam Tempura, a special roll, a salad, miso soup and the gyoza. The food was very good, especially the Yam Tempura and the Pan Fried Gyozas whoch were excellent. The sushi ... selection in the combo was good (though the plate did not have enough wasabi) while the special roll was interesting but a missed step in my opinion, great taste but way too much in terms of size (both of individual rolls and the dish overall), ended up making my gf feel way too full. Service was competent and polite but hit a small sang at the start, our drinks were very slow to arrive and we had to remind our waiter. Atmosphere is great in this are and the nice sunny day pulls a lot of the weight. That said the restaurant is bright, welcoming and clean. Though the table on the outside looked pretty cheap compared to the interior, understandable but a small knock in such a wealthy area nontheless. Overall price was fair at 34 per person for a lunch in a very upscale neighbourhood. And the food itself was abundant. A couple of mimor missteps but at the same time a very pleasant lunch. Might swing back if I'm in the area in the future Read more

Really enjoyed this place! Service staff is amazing! And super knowledgeable ajout the house products. Every time I made eye contact, they were at my table side! My server recommended the aburi tuna stack, which I ordered, as well as had the miso soup, ebi sunomono, a kappa roll, and spicy ... California roll... The tuna stack was to die for, and everything else was well prepared and executed perfectly. I was super impressed with the freshness of their products, the promptness of the wait times for each dish. I will definitely be back for the tuna stack and try more of the special rolls?! Thank you for the amazing service and the delicious food! Read more

They have the audacity to call bacon the "sliced pork belly." They also have the audacity to serve clumpy noodles. On top of everything, they name this noodle "Japanese noodle" and charge 17 bucks. Someone call the ramen police please. Sushi was good though.

I've gone to this place quite a few times when I first moved to DT Vancouver in 2005 and even when I left Vancouver and come to visit, the quality of their food has not changed. The service is always friendly & efficient and the quality of sushi that you get ... is always fresh and delicious. If you have a craving for sushi and happen to be in the area, definitely check this place out! Read more

Ordered the maki tray. Very small portion of food (see picture). This would have been OK if the sushi was delicious but unfortunately the sushi ended up being tasteless and did not taste fresh. This place used to be so good and the restaurant packed with a ... lineup out front, but when I picked up my order at 12:30, there was nobody eating inside the restaurant. I wondered why and now I have my answer. Would not recommend. Complete waste of $50+ dollars. Read more
