Honour Roll Sushi — Restaurant in Electoral Area A

I was always curious why this place had such long lineups during lunchtime. I was let down when I tried the food myself.

I took my friend's recommendation (chicken donburi) plus a spicy tuna roll, for the price of about $15. The spicy tuna roll was satisfying, but the chicken donburi was the big culprit. The rice tasted undercooked, was hard to chew, and was stuck to the food container. Nothing tasted impressive, just your usual 4 thin strips of teriyaki chicken on the rice. I was only half full after $15.

There are much better places around UBC at a much cheaper price. I don't know if Honour Roll is understaffed or just bad. Regardless, I'm not buying here...

This is the first time I’ve gotten chicken karaage here, so maybe I just got unlucky… The only good part was the little wedge of lemon included so I could get rid of...

Decent selection of grab-and-go items which is of just okay quality compared to sushi in general but a lot better than the average premade sushi. They also have a pretty good menu of rolls made fresh (or if they're out of something in the grab-and-go case you can ask them to make it fresh), which are slightly better than the grab-and-go stuff for quality, but the variety is a little more interesting. They also have some donburi and poke. I haven't tried the poke but do not recommend the veggie donburi since it's just steamed carrots and broccoli over rice. Staff are nice, the line gets long at lunch time and can...
