Once called Sushiholic this restaurant changed owners and underwent a name change and a surface makeover. The menu has also changed with the signatures being the biggest difference. Though some of the menu covers still sport the Sushiholic name.
While I miss Sushiholic's Agedeshi Tofu options, Sushi High has a neat offering where they give you 6 beautifully crispy, I might say even crunchy, pieces separated into three different sauces. Texture is wonderful. Not many places I've been to get the outer skin this well crisped. Exactly how I like my agedeshi tofu.
We had the Crazy Girl Roll and the Mega Roll signature rolls. Both where deep fried items. While the Mega Roll was lightly fried and then topped with a literal mountain of ingredients, the Crazy Girl Roll was all of the ingredients encased in a thin deep fried batter. Both were delicious, but be careful with the Crazy Girl Roll as it retains heat! The nice thing about that one also is that you can eat it in smaller bites whereas trying that with the Mega roll resulted in the remainder of the roll spilling into a mess on the plate - admittedly a delicious mess ;-).
Service was polite and speedy - hard not to be as the place is 40' square. If anything, it is a bit cramped. I'm a big guy and I'm not fantastically happy to share my meal conversation with people up to 3 tables over,...
Read moreCute little sushi spot conveniently located on East Broadway. I have tried many different sushi places around Vancouver, Burnaby, and Richmond, and this is definitely one of the better sushi places around! Went for dine in with a friend recently and we enjoyed our experience there. The place is on the smaller side with only a few tables but we went during a non-peak hour and were seated right away.
From the minute we walked in, service was warm and welcoming. The place is very clean inside so we felt safe dining in and they have good covid protocols set in place. We ordered the California roll, spicy yam tempura roll, salmon maki, edamame, and miso soup. Food did not disappoint. It was fresh, well made, and delicious!
Our server was very polite and friendly, and she came by to check on us and refill our tea multiple times without being invasive at all. Very reasonable pricing for the premium quality and service. I will be going back to try other items on their menu and will be ordering takeout from them in the future. I...
Read moreThis place is honestly fantastic. It has a classic "small sushi diner" feeling that I've missed among the flashier and more loudly Japanese places downtown. The food is exactly what you'd expect, particularly the salmon nigiri and rolls, but I found the udon to be generously portioned! It always felt there was more to eat and the broth had a solid and deep flavor.
The service was nice but the best part about it was that the waitress doesn't approach you while you have food in your mouth! The atmosphere could do a bit more if they wanted a classic but tbh they're right next to a busy street. So if you love the sounds of cars passing by (which I do) you'll actually find this quite soothing!
In any case, I loved this place. Each piece was okay, but together it was greater than the sum of its parts. So...
