Green Leaf Sushi | North Vancouver — Restaurant in North Vancouver

I love this place a lot! Literally blended into the vibe of the North Shore aesthetic as it is tucked into a very vintage little shoppe, that you can barely see in the Lower Lonsdale community. The only thing you can spot is that little sign hanging right outside the window. This is one of those places, if you know, you know it is a Green Leaf Sushi.

I was in the Lower Lonsdale area, because I work along the North Shore now, and had to come drop by for a light lunch before going back to work. I searched it up on Yelp where to eat, and this was the spot. I parked and then walked along the street, passing by this place a couple times and couldn't find it until I looked up and saw that sign. LOL. Yup, it is Green Lean Sushi alright!!

I walked into the restaurant and was greeted with a great big smile from the person at the front. The guy at the front was extremely nice and welcoming. I told him it was hard to decide because I have always love the Green Leaf Sushi in K-town Burnaby area a lot. And I told him I have always love their Mackerel Oshi and I always ordered, but I wanted something different that day. I ordered their Aburi Tobiko Roll, and my god it was delicious!!

It is different in how they made this version of the Aburi Tobiko Roll, because they have to roll it first in order to then aburi the top of the sushi. The best part was the little japeleno at the top of it to make each bite just a little bit more fruity and spicy. Amazing!! On top of that, they gave me a small side of cooked Mackerel as a side piece! When I told them how much I love mackerel!! I was so happy! It really made my visit so special for sure!! And yes, I will be back sometime in the future bringing co-workers for some sushi!!

But to be honest, the best part is just the restaurant itself. It is so beautifully aesthetic to the Vintage North Shore style it fits perfectly. I love the little lights and their decor. It wins for me in every aspect. And of course, they play KPOP on their speakers, I was dancing to Twice and eating my sushi. Perfect atmosphere for sure!! Love the place, and will be...

ordered off of Uber eats and absolutely demolished that aburi platter sober 💀

It came packed in this nice black box, I felt like I was opening some treasured article. Plus there was a sticky note that had all the sushi’s as reference. The care in the packaging was obvious and very sweetly done 🥺💓

As for the rolls themselves, they all tasted great. The rice was soft but one could still taste the sushi vinegar so it didn’t make it as heavy. You could tell every thing was fresh, and despite the delivery it was still good temp. My only complaint would be that they could have cut the pieces more neatly but it didn’t change the taste or experience at all.

So the yukke was soft and warm, comforting with a sweetness from the onions and then there was freshness from the alfalfa. The mackerel tasted liked the grilled ones you would have when camping and it just gave me a nice warm fuzzy feeling. The scallop was a melt in the mouth, silky yet still crunchy from the fish roe. The salmon was pure creamy comfort, no shocker haha. The tobiko was crunchy and spicy, but not a burn in the mouth spicy thanks to the tuna inside. And the basil ebi was my absolute favourite. The pesto taste gave it another dimension I could only wish there was more of it.

Thank you for the...
