About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Traditional and new? Yes we have them both.



Established in 1976, Kamei Royale was the first Japanese restaurant to introduce the now famous BC Roll and various original sushi dishes found in Vancouver. Presenting the largest counter-top sushi bar and an exhilarating Robata grill showcasing the chef's skills.



Kamei Royale has renovated and renewed itself again in 1990. Bringing forth a brand new bar lounge and Tatami rooms the massive floor space can easily accommodate up to 200 tour groups. Also, with the karaoke lounge now bustling, everyone can enjoy our popular drinks and dishes while singing away to the latest songs ranging from every corner of the planet!

    Always very good food, but for first time in 6 years 1 was “short changed” when it came to a sashimi order- very surprised but was quickly rectified when I asked for the menu and pointed it out. Other than that all good

    Kamei Royale Downtown is an authentic Japanese dining experience. The environment is pleasant and the service is excellent. The food is utterly delicious, some of the best tasting Japanese food I’ve had and I eat a lot of Japanese food. The dishes arrived very quickly, too. I’m in town for only three nights and I’ve already eaten here twice. I highly recommend this restaurant.
