Hi Dozo Sushi — Restaurant in British Columbia

Went in to order 3 non-specialty rolls for takeout today and was told it would be 15-20 minutes. I asked if I could wait in the restaurant and the cashier (also the only server I saw) said okay so I sat down in their waiting area so I’m not taking up a table. When I arrived there was one table dining in and I think 2 or 3 more groups of 2 arrived while I was waiting.

20 minutes pass and I assume the chef is just busy with the dine in and the phone orders I’ve heard the server accept so I continue to wait, assuming they’d bring my food over when it was ready.

After 30 minutes I go up to ask for an update to see if my food would be much longer and the server says “oh you’re back!” and proceeds to hand me a bag with my food.

I never left the building after ordering and I’ve never had problems waiting for take out in their waiting area when I visited years ago with my mom. It used to be when the order was done they’d bring it over to you and I wasn’t told I’d have to come back up to the register to collect my order.

The sushi itself tasted okay but I probably won’t be back as I found the server kind of dismissive and I only came in because Sushi Well is closed and I was craving sushi.

Sidenote for customers: Their dynamite roll is the same size as the California roll (maki size) so if you’re expecting the larger size which most places do that’s not...

Very nice place, I have been there two times in the last month, for a late dinner. Beef Udon s super tasty. We also have tried chicken teriyaki, veggie gyozas, asparagus sushi, salmon & tuna rolls and obviously miso soup. Next time I will try sashimi. Menu has enough variety. The dishes in which the food is served is "very Japanese", liked it. No need spend in drinks as "free" tea is fairly good. Service is good, friendly and quick. They look hard working, there were 4 persons working at the most. The place does not look very appealing from outside (I cannot exactly tell what it is, but the outside does not call my attention) but inside is cozy, warm and clean. I saw that most of their activity is for take out orders. Prices are reasonable. There is free parking lot (I guess $1.5/hour) one block away (Belmont and the 7th street). I understand they have been in business for 10+ years (not sure if the administration is the same). I will definitely keep visiting the place, specially because Victoria Sushi is not so close and Sushi Well closed a couple of weeks ago). I am hungry after writing this...

Pleasantly surprised by how good and fresh the sushi is here. We ordered two sashimi dinner combos for $21.95 each to go and it was quite amazing. It came with so many different food items for a fixed price and the portions were great. It saves you from ordering items which are more expensive individually if you are craving different things.

Our dinner sashimi combo came with a choice of terriyaki chicken or beef (we chose the chicken which had great flavour and fire wok vibes), you can then also choose 2 out of 3 of gomae, agedashi tofu, or chicken karaage, and you also get assorted tempura that was crisp and freshly fried with shrimp and pumpkin and more, a bowl of rice, a bowl of miso soup, and assorted sashimi with tuna, salmon, and surf clam, and 4 California rolls! It’s a great meal and deal!

Everything was packaged so perfectly and with care to...
