Bene Sushi Restaurant - West Vancouver

I had been intending on writing a review on Bene Sushi for a while since I have been here a couple of times already. Although I am by no means a sushi connoisseur, my girlfriend is. Well kind of. She is big on sushi so we are always trying out new places to find the best. While Vancouver has many, this one is more conveniently located to us. <br/ <br/ This is one of the better sushi spots in the area. A lot might complain about it being expensive but everything in the area is. While the sushi itself is not bad (check out their rolls), I feel like the wait staff is extremely inexperienced. Every single time there is an extraneous wait for everything from being acknowledged to receiving water. Having to spend an extra hour to receive everything for twice the price than in other places does not do this place any favours.

We were in the area for an activity, so thought to catch a late lunch in the neighbourhood as well. Deciding that we had a taste for sushi, and after exploring a few blocks, we were satisfied with our choice. There surprisingly weren’t many places open in Ambleside on a Sunday. From its exterior it looked pretty chic. Wood panels framing with an all glass front. Looking in, it seemed just as glitzy. Definitely one of the nicest Japanese fusion restaurants I have been to.

On February 18, 2016, I decided to visit this restaurant after seeing a photo of their flaming sushi on Instagram. The service was excellent and the food was delicious.

Great sushi! We live in White Rock, but whenever we are in West Vancouver we love Bene! Really fresh sushi and presentation! Prices are good too

The specialty rolls at this restaurant are delicious, with a variety of excellent choices. The Lionsgate Roll is a favorite. The decor is nice and the servers are friendly. The only downside is that the sashimi servings could be more generous. Overall, it's worth a visit.
