Oh.my.gosh. If I lived in Vancouver, I would eat here everyday! The sushi here was so fresh, tasty and well priced at around $4 per roll. I just came from the airport and had a few hours to chill, so I sat here and ate roll after roll for three hours, lmfao. The staff was so friendly, and again-- the food was fantastic! I would surely be a regular if I lived in the area. Definitely a popular spot around lunch time!

My go to place for a quick curry fix when visiting Vancouver. This is approximately my 3rd time back
Very consistent, reasonably priced dishes, staff always efficient and polite.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Apr 12, 2023Previous reviewBack again. Prices higher, inflation is a killer.
Udon still chewy, Katsu still crunchy and moist, curry still flavorful.
Glad to see their quality is still consistentFeb 18, 2022Previous reviewCasual inexpensive (per YVR standards!) across the street from my hotel. Bright and clean. Most of customers ordering takeout. Staff friendly and very efficient.
Small place, tables/chairs for approx 10 dine in customers, mix of US/Asian music playing in background.
Waited approx 5 mins for my order to be prepared. Katsu was plentiful, moist and crispy. Udon noodles were chewy and broth beefy flavorful.
Damn, who would have thought, great value for your money - Jan 28, 2023
If you want a quick Japanese grab & go food, Ebi Ten is perfect. The price & portion are good. The food tasted good.
- Tonkatsu curry: pork katsu were crispy yet the meat was tender. The curry sauce was thick (not watered down) - tasted ok.
- Cheese katsu curry: the pork katsu was crispy & tender. I wish they put more cheese on the katsu. Again, the curry wasn't mu favorite.
- Teriyaki chicken: hubby's favorite! The chicken was well cooked. The pieces were tender & flavorful.
- Karaage bento: it came with 3 big pieces of crispy karaage. The meat was tender & well seasoned.
- California roll: the rolls were rather small sized but taste wise, they were good roll.
We bought the food to-go few times and our order came out pretty fast. We ordered via Uber Eats one time and everything was packed properly and was still warm when we got it.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Dec 31, 2022
Dropped by here yesterday for a quite bite, they have a machine to quickly make shrimp tempura and to assemble the bowl it took them almost no time, so if u were in a rush, this is the place to eat at. I ordered Mega Bowl, there are tempura shrimp, tempura green beans, greens, rice, tofu with minced pork and teriyaki chicken. Every bite is a new experience, the tempura is so delicious, there is sweet Mayo between the teriyaki chicken and the greens, trust me stirring them up and eat it, it is amazing! It is a pretty big bowl I couldn't finish the rice in the end. Will def come back again.

One line review: Decent Japanese fast food
We were downtown for a weekend conference (just before the COVID shutdown) and had a chance to try several restaurants in the area near Westside Church, across from the central library. This was the first place we went.
We ordered:
Ebi-ten bowl with rice, tempura (2 shrimp, sweet potato -- not crisp but edible
Chicken teriyaki (lightly seasoned)
Mega bowl (as above with tofu and minced pork added)
The food, as indicated above, was decent. The dining room was non-descript -- typical fast food restaurant. Service was adequate but not memorable.
We took transit into downtown, so I know nothing about parking around there -- except that I would hate to have to park down there.
Bottom line: On the whole, I would eat here again if I were in the area. But the other reality is that we were there for a weekend and /didn't/ eat there again when we had the chance. It was fine but not compelling enough to go back to so soon.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Oct 22, 2019
I needed a quick meal before seeing Cirque Du Soleil - Luzia (awesome by the way, but that's for another review!) and found myself on Robson Street. Marutama was my first choice, but there was a huge lineup, so I opted for Ebi-Ten.
Sort of like a fast food place, you order your food at the counter and then they'll call you up when your order is ready. There's complimentary water and you pick up your utensils too. I chose the Mega Bowl ($12.50) as it seemed to be the biggest portion. I'm not sure if it's a limited time offer, but extra rice is free so I definitely did not pass up on that.
The food came pretty quickly and it was a lot of food. The teriyaki chicken had a good flavour. The tempura was 2 pieces of prawn and yam, and was a big highlight for me. The prawn was moist and juicy. The tempura batter was quite light. The Minced pork and tofu with spicy sauce reminded me of mapo tofu. It was not very spicy at all, but had a nice kick. This went very well with the rice. Speaking of rice, this was a really generous portion of rice and I was definitely full by the end of my meal.
Overall, a quick and delicious meal and relatively cheap for downtown.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Norman L.Burnaby, Canada44026Jan 24, 2021
Ebi Ten's a packed place to go for lunch when you're downtown. Or at least it was pre-covid.
It's located on Robson Street, a pretty busy part of downtown, so expect a line if you come during rush hour. However, the line does go by fairly quickly, so props to them for handling the massive influx of people coming in. I ordered a Curry Udon for $11 and got my order within 5 minutes, so it's pretty good if you're in a rush.
It came with the typical curry/udon toppings like corn and potatoes. I found that the Japanese curry didn't mix well with the broth, but hey it's Japanese Curry Udon, so I got what I asked for. Aside from that, it was your typical udon noodles with deep-fried pork cutlet and ramen toppings.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 21, 2018
Great place for lunch. I was recently visiting the area, walked by, and was drawn to this restaurant. They're conveniently fast. I sat there for a bit watching them push out one order after another for lunch. The prices are very fair, and you do get a lot of food. I had already eaten something not long before, but I had to try their Sushi Rolls. It was just 6 pieces, but quite delicious. The menu is small and very simple.
The lady at the counter kept me waiting for a bit, even though I was the only person in line. That was a bit annoying....Helpful 15Thanks 0Love this 10Oh no 0 - Henry M.Vancouver, Canada18044102Sep 18, 2020
Ebi-Ten is one of my recently discovered go-to lunch spots and it definitely hits all the mark if you want:
-food served fast.
-affordable prices.
-tasty fried food.
I've ordered and personally demolished the following items in the past few weeks:
1) Deluxe Curry on Rice (5/5)
This is my favorite dish to get so far, however you better proceed with caution unless if you want a nice nap afterwards. There are 2 pieces of ebi tempura, deep fried pork cutlet, an egg, with the Japanese curry bringing it all together on top of rice. The tempura and pork cutlet are both fried well. This is a simple, hearty meal that you cannot go wrong with.
2) Meat Curry on Rice (3/5)
This dish is similar to the Deluxe Curry dish above. The major difference is that there's only sliced beef, deep fried pork culet, and curry over rice. The sliced beef is mediocre and the curry overshadows the beef.
3) Mega Bowl (4/5)
If you're someone who loves variety, wants to try all the items on the menu, and appreciates affordable pricing, then the Mega Bowl is for you. This bowl contains teriyaki chicken, mixed tempura, spicy tofu, salad, and rice. The spicy tofu acts as a delicious "sauce" or "curry" on top of the rice. The teriyaki chicken is dry but there's good flavor. And, do not fret, there are greens with mayo on top so you'll definitely get your fiber intake!
The ingredients are not the highest quality. However, at the end of the day, with great prices and tasty food, Ebi-Ten does not disappoint. I will continue to come back!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
