Sushi Zen

After a nice run at Tynehead Park, we needed some good food to recover. Sushi Zen is about 10 minutes away from that area and kind of on the way home. It was an awesome choice.

Yoko Sushi in Surrey

Ever since finding out about Tobiko Sushi, I’ve been frequently getting sushi from there. This time I went with a new set of friends on Canada day, but sadly it was closed. We decided to go across the street to try out Yoko Sushi instead. Upon going in we were quickly greeted and sat down. It was really cold in there with the AC blasting.

Tobiko Sushi, Fleetwood

Tobiko Sushi is possibly our newest favourite sushi joint in Surrey, the current being Maguro. It’s located in Fleetwood by the Pizza Hut and Wendy’s. The menu is pretty cool in that it has a bunch of Dragon Rolls in almost all of the Power Ranger colours. No joke. The menu has a lot of rolls, and for sure, my friends want to try all the Dragon Rolls.

Ta Ke Sushi

Ta Ke Sushi is around the Panorama Village on Hwy 10 and 152nd Street in Surrey. When we arrived there was a foul smell in the area, like very rancid garbage. I’m not sure what it was, because it was all around the area, even when we drove away to a nearby Shoppers Drug Mart.

Sunny Dragon Chinese & Japanese

Sunny Dragon is a Korean owned Chinese, Japanese, all Asians in one restaurant in Surrey.

This all Asians in one restaurant has a lot of items on their menu, mostly Chinese and Japanese food. My friends and I ordered a bunch of things including the Sweet and Sour Pork, a Japanese Dinner Box, Gyozas, Agedashi Tofu, and a couple sushi rolls.

Tawara Japanese

Last week I got to visit Tawara. It’s a family owned restaurant in the Panorama Ridge area near 152nd St and Hwy 10 in Surrey. Looking at the menu it wasn’t one of the cheaper sushi joints in town.

Akari Japanese Restaurant

Akari is a Sushi Place near Scott Rd and 72nd Ave in Surrey’s Newton area. It’s pretty much right across the street from Strawberry Hill. I swear I have been here before, but I’m not too sure. Maybe I’ve just been in the area a few times.

Tokachi

I haven’t been to Tokachi for a very long time, probably pushing over a decade. I decided to try it out again recently because although the location is a bit iffy, the food was pretty good, and a lot of the people on Urbanspoon agree. I finally went back a few weeks ago, and I was glad I did.

Akasaka Sushi in Surrey

I’ve known about Akasaka as that kind of pricey sushi place next to Oriental Buffet in Guildford. I’ve never been there until a few days ago for my friend’s birthday – it’s her favorite sushi place in Surrey. I got there, and the parking lot was full! I had to park across the street at Guildford Mall.

Sushi Tengoku in Surrey

I saw that a new Japanese restaurant had opened up where Anducci’s used to be on 152nd St in Surrey. I wanted to check it out, but the reviews on DineHere were pretty bad back in January. I checked on UrbanSpoon today and it turns out that it’s getting better – 80%. Sadly they don’t have a website for me to check their menu.

Hanako, Authentic Sushi in Surrey

Hanako is a tiny Japanese restaurant in Surrey.  This restaurant’s authencity and quality is probably the best in Surrey, and better than most small sushi places in Metro Vancouver.

Guildford Sushi House needs to learn how to make rice

I went to Guildford Sushi House earlier this week. I’ve always known about, because it’s right beside Kim Hoang Pho, but never went in. One of my friends said they always got their sushi from there even though they live in Cloverdale because it’s cheap and pretty good. Well the cheap part is true, and they have big portions, but their sushi is … I’m kind of undecided.
