Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Gibsons

"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."

"The home of the California roll, Tojo’s is the place to go when you really want to impress friends from out of town. Chef Tojo continues to experiment with new flavours, plus the recently introduced cocktail hour menu makes this spot more approachable than ever. Hours: Monday to Saturday from 5PM, Cocktail Hour Thursday to Saturday, 4PM-6PMWhere: 1133 West Broadway"

"One of Vancouver’s authentic Japanese sushi restaurants, Tojo provides quality with great service. The dishes are a little on the smaller side with a higher price point, but the flavor, quality, and experience are worth it. The food is inspired by traditional Japanese fine dining influences."

"Located in the heart of Yaletown, this Vancouver sushi restaurant focuses on delicious and sustainable Japanese seafood dishes with a stylish display. Minami is also known for their melt in your mouth Aburi sushi, specifically their appetizers. The quality is high end and the staff is very knowledgable."

"Minami is a sister restaurant to the popular Miku restaurant, and I think I actually prefer eating here. The sushi is also pretty expensive, but I find myself liking the options at Minami more. Be sure to make a reservation because it gets super busy!"

"Locals recommend Minami for sushi, Anh and Chi for pho, or Marutama for Ramen. Alternatively, you can eat at one of the cafes and restaurants inside Stanley Park itself. Update: 1886 is now closed."

The hole-in-the-wall place eschews fancy décor but still celebrates high-quality ingredients you’d expect from an authentic Japanese restaurant in Vancouver."

"A post shared by Jason | Noms Mag (@yehitsfoodtime) on Feb 4, 2018 at 11:03pm PST. For having a bit of some more traditional Japanese seafood delicacies, check-in at Sushi by Yuji. It’s a warm place with a relaxing, laid-back atmosphere and expansive menu options."

"A post shared by Nicole • Food & Adventure (@foodiecole) on Dec 18, 2019 at 10:01pm PST. Another hidden gem for sushi in Vancouver, this time tucked into Kingsway. Sushi by Yuji offers patrons sweet uni and some amazing nigiri for both lunch and dinner."

We are lucky here in Vancouver to have access to sushi that is both really fresh and reasonably priced. At Yamato, all box specials are under $9 and you can share a party tray with your friends with 34 pieces of sushi for $21.95."

"A post shared by Mark (@demarkoist) on Apr 14, 2016 at 12:47am PDT. Yamato Sushi hits a rare medium of enjoying quality sushi without having to dish out a pretty penny on your rolls. Their box specials also look to be a solid bargain, giving you a little bit of everything for just $9."

"A fusion seafood restaurant in the heart of Downtown, you can't go wrong with this spot. They've got all the sushi you want and much more - like okonomiyaki, udon, hot pot, and so so many appetizers. We love their assorted combos and sets, like the Vancouver Sashimi and Chef's Aburi."

"Kerrisdale’s sushi gem covers all the classics, and their more inventive additions are appetizing and authentic (no deep-fried, cream cheese-stuffed California rolls here). Try the triple salmon roll—with B.C.’s star fish both raw and smoked, plus roe for good measure, and the ume mirugai for a taste of geoduck with tangy plum paste. Pressed (battera) sushi and grilled dishes (like the tuna collar) also shine."

"A spot like this deserves that overused qualification of “hidden gem.” With only seven tables and a sushi bar, this authentic Japanese restaurant fills up quickly. When other Japanese chefs recommend it, you know it’s going to be good. The fresh, high-quality and reasonably priced sushi is worth the wait."

"A post shared by N✌🏻 (@eatingspaces) on Oct 29, 2019 at 11:28am PDT. This Kerrisdale sushi spot offers affordable sushi and sashimi in a cozy atmosphere. Described often as a hidden gem in Vancouver, Ajisai has some delicious — and Insta-worthy — dishes such as a quail egg-topped roll."

"Your friendly neighbourhood pizzeria in Commercial Drive, complete with a Neapolitan-style wood-burning oven!. Marcello is a firm favorite among Italian food lovers, and brings you that cozy comforting feeling with every bite you take of their amazing pizza pies, and pastas. They also made it to our 10 Best Pizza Spots in Vancouver list."

"Born in the City of Delights, or more commonly known as Palermo, Italy, Marcello fell in love with cooking from a young age. Influenced by the crystal clear water, the flavours of the culturally-rich air, and a little encouragement from his mother,"

"Pizzeria, Ristorante, Italian, Pizza, Pizzeria, Italian Restaurant, Wheelchair-accessible Restaurant, Restaurant With Terrace. I was here with a large group and we just ordered a bunch of items and shared. Salads, pizza and pasta."

"One of our favourite places to head for pasta and pizza, once you bite into the offerings here you’ll understand why there’s typically a line for tables around mealtime. The atmosphere is cozy but lively, a great place to start a night out or head for a later bite. Address: 1525 Yew Street, VancouverPhone: 604-734-0099"

"At Romer’s we’re all about keeping it fresh, local, and fun. Our restaurants are focused on casual dining inspired by the West Coast lifestyle around us. We’re passionate about delivering you a quality experience with great service"

"You'll be jostling for space with chatty locals at this breakfast and lunch joint near the south side of Granville Bridge. But it's worth it: the cozy, super-friendly place is superior to most bacon-and-eggs... Top ChoiceVegan in Downtown & West End"

"I'm glad The Ellis has survived the terrible struggles through Covid and it really is great bar (good choice of beers) and patio, but the food is ta..."
