    The sushi and sashimi were okay but not great. For the prices they charge the quantity and quantities should be far better.

    Nice atmosphere, amazing service and delicious food. It’s a high end sushi restaurant so don’t expect a $3 tuna roll. I would return here for a special occasion.

    Very sad trip to Tojo’s. Used to be great. They took a $50 deposit per person. But the place was dead. They give free ice cream with your dinner and sang a loud, comic happy birthday to one table. Did we stumble into the old spaghetti factory? True, we had an early table but we finished after 7 and there were still only 3 tables. Chicken karaage was the food highlight. Handcones we’re drenched in cloying mayonnaise. Nigiri sushi was priced at the very high end and all seemed like it had been brined. $25 a piece Hokkaido uni tasted like a salt bomb. Also had beef sashimi appetizer. Sloppy presentation, watery sauce sprinkled with whole pepper corns. Couldn’t eat it. Steak was served with mostly cold steamed veg. Sitting on a pile of soggy mushy mushrooms. Steak itself was anaemic looking. Grey and pink. Sauce with a very sweet, shiny sauce that you’d swear was grocery store teriyaki. Staff were kind and tried. Took the beef appetizer off the bill within being asked too. But really shouldn’t have to be passing off that kind of quality.

    When I knew I was going to be in the Vancouver area, the first thing I thought about doing was making a reservation to Tojo’s. The opportunity to experience the mastery of the team at Tojo’s was too good to pass up. It absolutely exceeded expectations! The fish was the freshest ever, the ambience was relaxing, and the service was exceptional!

    Honestly I'm not the one to post bad reviews but i feel like i have to post this so people don't make the same mistake. Firstly, I'm not trying to slander this place and I'm not purposely trying to talk bad about Tojo's as the place is pretty nice and the staff were super kind but this is my honest review of the place. I went here and got the 330/per person omakase. I've never had omakase and I was genuinely very excited to try this but it was very disappointing. For 330 per person I expected a very lavish meal and high quality food/to leave full as one should if they're paying that much. The food was just average and I felt like I definitely didn't get my money's worth. There was 7 dishes and the only 'expensive' dishes were the wagyu dish and the 1 slice of b toro. The tempura included 'snow crab' but to be honest it tasted like imitation crab which is ridiculous. I asked the server if the crab was imitation or real and they seemed nervous when I asked and said it was real but I opened up the tempura and it tasted and looked exactly like imitation crab, my gf also used to work at a japanese restaurant for years and even she agreed it wasn't real. I could be wrong but the fact that I couldn't immediately tell if it was real or not is a red flag. Fresh seafood compared to imitation should be easily distinguishable but the fact that I even had the doubt bothers me. The rest of the dishes were just okay, the wagyu was good but its pretty hard to mess up a cut of meat like that. The 'premium' sushi was just average too and everything just felt simply put, the other dishes they included besides the sushi and wagyu were a chicken breast dish, raw beef dish, steamed egg, tempura, and a dessert. I'm honestly very disappointed in this experience and I wish I went somewhere else. For the price it totally is not worth it, I paid close to 800 for 2 people after tips and tax and I regret it 100%. I could've gotten way more/better quality elsewhere

Amazing top shelf sushi, super having the chef prepare while we watched and explain each dish. Real wasabi, and amazing variety of foods! A real treat!!

    The Omakase Seasonal was really good. It was like the chef-orchestrated meal of assorted specifically-picked dishes. We loved the Omakase's Sushi. It was miles apart from the regular sushi we eat at other restaurants.

    We had a terrible experience- I thought this was a high end restaurant but food quality, atmosphere and service has suffered. People seem to go there for birthdays. They scream the happy Birthday song so everyone has to listen. I was trying to have a business discussion and we kept getting interrupted by TERRIBLE singing/screaming by the waiter. The food is normal sushi that you would get in a food court- why did I put $100 deposit down?? Why high prices?? I will never go back to this place. It’s terrible. I recommend not to go!!
