Not a sushi fan, but the sushi pizza, and spicy salmon combo is amazing here. As of April 2016 I'd recommend this place. I'll have to update this review if it changes.
Great place. Great food and prices, and very friendly staff. Highly recommended
Went on a Saturday night and it was extremely busy. Service was quick and attentive, and was impressed with how the staff handled such a busy night. They provided complimentary miso soup. Ordered maki and nigiri, and everything was done well. Would visit again and recommend to others.
Of almost all the sushi places in North Burnaby on Hastings, this one is the best so far. Variety for maki is great! This is the only place I have had sushi, and I didn't end up with an upset stomach. Service is quick and friendly. Dinner hours are crazy busy. Get takeout if you don't want to wait. I've recommended this place to friends.
UOmo looks like a dive from the frontage, looks crowded and cluttered on the inside and the presentation of their sushi and maki could use some work. But what gets it a 4.0 rating is that the ingredients were fresh, well put together and delicious.
They also have items I haven't seen in a while, like ume rolls and nattō. The service was great, very friendly staff and it was not at all expensive.
So nice, good service and food. Overall environment is soso but taste is so good much better than other fancy restaurant. Reasonable price
I think I should have tried the special rolls. The dynamite combo I tried was okay and it's filling but I am looking for more variety. This play is easy to find parking. Food is good but as mentioned would try the special rolls next time (yes, there is a next time). Service is fast and good. My tea is always filled. When you sit down , you get a tea and miso (even before ordering). Yes, I'll recommend
This place is UNREAL.
We get take out as much as we eat in.
The service is always amazing and the take out is always amazing and fresh and ready for our pick up time.
The sushi pizza is the best in all of Vancouver hands down. Their crazy bacon roll is unreal and my favourite thing ever is there Cheetos roll.
This place is a must Try. I won't eat anywhere else.
Decent service and food is not bad in that price range. The deluxe assorted sashimi comes in 18 pc for $18.50. Not the freshest fish but rather mild and huge portion. Next we had the chopped scallop roll and Hastings roll. The Hastings roll is my favourite item of the night. It consists of avocado, cucumbers, prawn tempura, and seared salmon on top with spicy mayo. The rice has the good chewy texture with the right amount of vinegar. The chopped scallop roll is standard but I found it with too much sesame on the top. There's nothing special about it. Another decent item was the assorted aburi don. It was a big bowl of rice with different fish items on top. I liked it mixed together with the spicy mayo although that's not the authentic way to eat it :P. One item that was not in the pic was the lady mango roll. I assumed the mango would be sliced nicely and lay on top of the roll but apparently that wasn't the case. It was chunks of mango (some not so fresh) and with mango sauce on top (yuck). I don't recommend this dish. This is a Korean operated place so don't expect authentic Japenses dishes. Items are hit and miss. If you go often enough, you will know what to order.
It seems every year every corner a new sushi restaurant pops up. It feels as if the whole city is being over taken by sushi restaurants. Sushi UOmo is a sushi restaurant I want around. The price I paid for the quality of food was pretty good and pretty tasty. The sablefish at sushi Uomo in contrast with Aki that I recently ate at tasted pretty similar and it was a slightly bigger piece. When the bill came I was surprised at the price of my whole bill, with the sable fish still fresh in my mind It was few dollars shy of just the one piece at Aki. After tax and tip) I will defiantly be returning for another visit. The dynamite roll wasn't to my liking though. A little odd. The Hastings Roll was fantastic.
It was my 2nd time at this restaurant for lunch. I ordered something different from last time. I really enjoyed the Sushi Pizza. It was different. Big portions. Lots of food so we packed the rest home. Love the food and good service.
Updated Review Sep 18th:
Delicious food but the service left a bitter taste in my mouth. Have you ever been asked to move after you are literally almost done eating my answer was no until today. Absolutely rude behavior! My impression of this restaurant went down in less than a month. You want service don't come here. You want to try the food? Get it to go. Seems like common sense and manners aren't practiced here. Half hearted apology not accepted.
There's many good sushi restaurants in Burnaby and this is another one. Nothing I had was amazing but was good value and good flavour.
I was nervous getting one of the box dinners as there's a few things I know I don't like and it listed chef's choice. My friend got it and I would try it if I go here again. It had multiple cuts of salmon and tuna nigiri, as well as some other fish.
I tried the Boston roll Maki, stuffed inari, and saba nigiri. I'd never heard of a Boston before and liked it; lots of crunch. The Inari pocket with ceab meat was huge; I took 4 big bites to eat it. The saba was lightly picked. I enjoy a strong pickled flavour; this was nice too.
Excellent, fresh sushi. Always a very good service. Great spot for casual lunch.
Friendly, quality service in a super clean little shop. All the fish was fantastic, especially the yellowtail and salmon belly. Really good prices, nigiri was huge.
Simple place but very good sushi fresh and delicious never disappointed, one of my favorite place in North Burnaby.
Fresh ingredients and very nicely plated. Must try the inari pocket! The portion was generous and delicious ❤️ The staff and chef were extremely friendly. We were hungry and ordered too much to eat but was happy to have the leftovers for a second meal 🤭 there were plenty of pics of the menu items around the restaurant so it's easy to see what you would want.
Great food at a reasonable price. This place seemed really popular with take out orders, but their dine in service was great! Great option if you're feeling like having a sushi night!
