      This was such a treat! I have never been to an all-vegan sushi restaurant before. They don't make everything from scratch (e.g., the spring rolls and gyozas), but that doesn't even matter. The food was so delicious. We got the gyozas, tofu katsu, california roll, dynamite roll, and summer roll. Everything was so good!

      Our server was very attentive and kind. It's a small , intimate restaurant, which I prefer. The parking was pretty easy and only about $3 USD for 2 hours.

      Amazing vegan sushi, exceptional selection, quality ingredients, stellar service. We were seated immediately, and almost everything we ate, from the calamari starter to the hazelnut cake finish, was phenomenal. Fantastic place for vegans.

      What a surprise! I accidentally came across this resto thanks to Uber Eats. Not a hard core vegan but I don't mind having this type once in awhile

      The fried California rolls were an extra special treat with that crunch and flavour

      We ordered agedashi tofu, crunch (california) rolls and a vegan chicken teriyaki bowl

      A nice treat that I would recommend to any vegan die-hards

      (find me on IG @aida.loves )

      Extremely creative and impressively executed all-vegan sushi and more. What a vegan paradise this is.

      I heard through an online post that this place had recently opened, so my wife and I had to check it out. They have an extensive menu of very creative sushi, plus many more Japanese staples. We ordered a variety of stuff to share, which turned out to be the right amount. We got:

      -Goma-ae ($6.50) -- top-notch goma-ae, not too sweet, and made with a really nice black sesame paste. Extremely well-executed. 5/5

      -Spicy agedashi tofu ($9.95 plus tax) -- this was the only thing we got that was rather disappointing. The tofu was served deep fried not covered in the sauce -- the sauce was separate, so the sauce did not have time to marinate the tofu at all, and the result was an agedashi tofu that was rather flavourless. Also, it wasn't remotely spicy. For the price, it was also poor value. Skip this one. 2.5/5

      -Beef teriyaki roll ($8.00 plus tax). The "beef" is made with thinly sliced soy marinated in teriyaki. Big hearty roll, very satisfying and impressively true to the original. 5/5

      -Futo maki ($11.95 plus tax). I've always loved this classic roll, so when I see vegan versions of it, I jump at it. Great textures with the different veggies and tied together by the inari. Over-priced for what you get but well-executed. 4.5/5

      -Avocado cream cheese roll ($6.00 plus tax). This was fantastic. I guess they use some sort of tofu product for the cream cheese, which has the perfect creamy texture and is flavoured very nicely, complementing the avocado. Kick ass. 5/5

      -Dynamite roll ($7.95) -- I haven't had the real dynamite roll in over a decade, so I can't really compare, but the textures were right. Very satisfying. 4.5/5

      -Spicy salmon nigiri ($8.50) -- it's annoying that you have to order the Nigiri in 2pcs/order, and it's very expensive (I know nowhere else that you pay $4+ per Nigiri pc). That said, this was very nicely done -- not really salmon-like and not spicy, but nicely flavoured and textured. 3.5/5

      Top-notch, friendly service who gave us free miso soup to start. Everything was presented beautifully and we enjoyed most things. Priced high but ultimately worth it given the niche market this is serving. Highly recommended.

      A true vegan spot specializing in plant based sushi and Asian cuisine.

      Located in Kerrisdale, quaint and cute neighborhood of Vancouver; this restaurant was founded on a philosophy of plant base diet. Often times you would normally see vegetarian Mock meats only used for main entrées, very rarely for sushi, and nigiri. Yet this place proved that it is possible.

      The host is a very sweet Japanese lady who greets and seats you promptly. Quick note; she may ask any visitor if they are OK with onion and garlic, there are a few items that are made with it, but there's a possibility they may be able to make entrées without them, so just ask!

      A complementary bowl of miso soup was given. The two kinds of rolls, I ordered were the spam teriyaki roll, and the Shoku roll.

      I've never tried spam ever in my life, and often wondered what the consistency would've been like. But I was very surprised; it has a similar consistency like beyond meat (but it's not beyond meat when I asked) There was certainly no flavor lacking. The next one was the Shoku roll; I think this was one of my top favorite vegetarian rolls. It was spicy vegan crab, with vegan tuna, complimented with a mango glaze on the side, and what I feel is tapioca pearls in the form of Fish row.roe. (back in the day when I've eaten real sushi, I was never a fan of Fish roe, but did not mind it this time). Be sure to let them know if you are not comfortable with having it as a topping. They are very understanding and accommodating.

      At this point, I was hoping to try a third roll, but I had no space. So till next time, go support them so they can make it to their one year mark and many more!

      The vegan sushi/rolls were OUT OF THIS WORLD. Also one of the servers was so sweet to all her customers that I almost asked her to be my new mom. Seriously though, don't miss out on this one!

      The menu was HUGE and we ordered way too much food! Everything was wonderful and beautifully plated.

      The waitress, Ayana, was a doll and so nice!

      The only con was that the 'wasabi' was super fake and full of green food coloring. Yuk!
