Description

Ebisu, a small Isakaya restaurant in downtown Vancouver, offers a decent dining experience with some hits and misses. While the shrimp tempura was disappointing, the lamb dish and sashimi plate were delicious. The restaurant lacks atmosphere but has reasonable alcohol prices. Another nearby sushi spot also received mixed reviews, with the Sashimi getting high marks but the rolls falling short. Overall, it's a decent place to grab a bite in the area, with fresh sushi options and prompt service. Whether recommended by hotel staff or stumbled upon, both restaurants provide satisfying sushi options in Vancouver.

The menu item variations and the price are great here! A bit hard to find but the parking is not a nightmare and beer values are fantastic.

We normally go to Sushi California, but they were closed for renovations. So I checked Zomato to see the ratings of other sushi restaurants close by. When we saw the Ebisu signage, my husband remembered that we 've been to this place years ago. So we went there. It was a relatively quiet place, compared to other Japanese restaurants. That night, the patrons were young and seem to order the right stuff. They also stayed longer there and consumed more alcohol.We ordered gindara $18 for one piece(! , salmon nigiri, tempura, agadashi tofu and gyoza. The food was beautifully prepare and well presented. The salmon was very 'fresh ' and cold. The black cod had been marinated the right number of days and so the texture was firm and perfect. We enjoyed our meal and the dining experience and will come back again when we are prepared to spend twice as much as we normally spend at Sushi California.

Really enjoyed this place. It's a bit hidden, it's on Broadway, but you have to walk into the plaza and it's near the very back. Once you are back there,...
