Isami Sushi is a small Japanese Sushi Restaurant located on Kingsway, Burnaby. The location is easy to find, but it’s no parking beside. A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I had a dinner at this place. We arrived at the Isami Sushi around 6 pm. It was super busy. We had to stand outside and waited for a while to get into the restaurant.
Once we got into the restaurant, it has already passed 7 pm. We sat down at the Sushi Bar. The server noticed us that our food would take a little bit longer to come. We were fine with that. We have ordered Beef Tataki, Jo Sashimi, Una -Ju, and Eskimo Roll to share. Actually, it was faster than we thought to be. Jo Sashimi was a little bit pricey, which included 7 different kinds of Sashimi. They were all very fresh. Beef Tataki was different from other places. The beef slices were very small, but the taste was very delicious. I enjoyed the crispy fried onions on the top. My favorite dish is Una-Ju. It made by BBQ fresh water eel basted in demi-glaze sauce and served on rice. It was my first time having this food. The rice was soft, which was a great combination of BBQ water eel. The demi-glaze sauce was very well used on eels. I love it so much. It was very tasty. The last dish was Eskimo Roll. It was California roll, topped with BBQ salmon, green onion & special sauce. I like the BBQ Salmon and Green onion on top. The price of the food was a little bit expensive. The taste of the food was very authentic. It was owned by Japanese people and all the servers and chefs are all Japanese. It was a great place to eat Japanese food.
YUMMY! Definitely coming back here! My absolute favs were the salmon aburi (better than the #toroaburi!) and the spicy roll (Cali roll with spicy tuna on top). Bf loves bc rolls (salmon skin roll..not my fav) but it was the best ive had here. Its usually quite fishy tasting but i found it really tasty here without the fishiness! Reviews posted said authentic Japanese owned but I noticed a few Chinese so wasn't sure how true that is. Either way, food was amazing and will def return. Decor was a bit old and all pay park around the area unless you don't mind a bit if a walk.
Our favourite sushi place in the Vancouver area. We've been going here for years and the quality has sustained for all 13 years. I really like the sushi chef - he greets us and knows our kids. The service can be lacking but you just need to know where to sit. They have had a lot of turn over in the past few years, which is unfortunate. We order the wild salmon sashimi, deep fried crab roll, eskimo roll, and the BBQ mixed seafood. It is all good.
