Oh wow, this is the best Japanese restaurant we've been to in New West! The flavours of the teriyaki sauce are perfect, the service is good and the tuna Maki are awesome (it's always my go-to roll). I even liked the Miso soup & I don't tend to enjoy it at any Japanese restaurant. Also, good pricing!!!
Hi Dozo is a MUST try.
The staff are amazingly friendly, make great recommendations, hours are great, prices reasonable for the sushi, and entrees.
The environment is clean and welcoming.
And the Food ... It will not disappoint. The sushi is so fresh and the rice rolled tight and thin so you don't feel heavy afterwards. It is plated beautifully and will have you wanting to gorge it and savour it at the same time! I have tried a variety of sushi, appetizers, and an entree to get a feel for consistency and never have they erred on taste, playing, or service... Which is rare in my books for sushi.
Kudos to the chefs and staff at hi Dozo , I have been back and will continue to return.
I've eaten an entire pint of Luna & Larry's vegan ice cream everyday for the past 3 days. I just can't help it okay. With this kind of weather, how can you not eat ice cream? I try to ignore the fact that each pint has 300% of your daily recommended saturated fat and a whopping 920 calories ~ hey, I'm still young right? I can totally get away with it ;)
Anyways, the weather was just too beautiful today, it would've been a pity to stay at home!! So I did what any sensible person would do...I WENT FOR SUSHI!! (Raymond would approve.)
We didn't want to venture too far from our house, so we decided to go to Hi Dozo for lunch!! Hi Dozo is a Korean run Japanese restaurant located in downtown New Westminster, directly across from Royal City Centre!! The service was super friendly; the waitress was polite and didn't seem bothered by the fact that we asked for one too many tea refills (5 in total.)
After lunch my mom and I went to Moody Park and explored the surrounding suburbs, admiring all the old houses (old houses are the best, they have so much character!!)
Amazing food! Try the angus roll and salmon passion. It's excellent! The staff are friendly. Tea was refilled often. Atmosphere is gorgeous.
Hi, Dozo Sushi. Okay, I admit that I used to think that your name meant that you were saying “Hi” to someone named “Dozo Sushi”. I don’t think that I’m too crazy… after all, you usually have a comma after the word “hi” and before someone’s name. As it turns out, “hai, dozo” roughly translates to “please, go ahead” or “go first” when you’re in polite conversation.
We just moved into the neighborhood and decided to try Hi Doza. I do love the fake cherry blossom tree at the front. When my tea came I noticed it was in a plastic cup, tea just does not taste right in plastic. Rainbow crab had the California roll box. She enjoyed it. I had chicken karage which was battered chicken thighs, I like it this way best. It was served with mustard sauce!? They had good flavour but a bit doughy. I had avocado roll, it was a standard roll. I also had asparagus roll. This roll I loved. It is close by so we will return. Nice service too.

The rest of the dinner combo came in a large lunch box. There wasn't a chance that I could refrain from having any of the tempura, because it looked and smelled good. At the very least, I had that healthy slice of watermelon plopped in the middle to balance things out!
Good food, good prices and decent service. We've been at least half a dozen times and have enjoyed it each time. The food is good, the prices are reasonable and the service is decent. We've also been given free appetizers a few times.
We took some family members last Christmas, including my father-in-law who swore he didn't like Japanese food. When his teriyaki bowl arrived, he happily cleaned the dish.
My FAV local sushi place! Friendly and efficient service... Peanut Grinch Roll is a must-have.
New renos looking good.... This is as close to a Japanese sushi bar/rest as you may find in New West. Yes actually operated by a Japanese sushi chef and assistant.
No coloured sushi rice, great offerings of rolls and more rolls. From the traditional to the new era sushi favorites.They have many items not on the everyday "sushi" menu :)
Bento box at lunch is superb. Always specials to pick from ;)
Is it me or do servers not serve and pick up drinks/glasses on a tray any longer? My only bee-atch!
The sashimi is the freshest I have had in New West. Their spicy sesame sauce is fantastic. Excellent ebi gyoza.
Nice place!. Hi Dozo was slow to grow on me, but grow on me it has. I gave it a second, then a third, chance, since it's located close to the New West Public Library, and getting a library book then heading next door for lunch is a nice routine. An excellent tuna tataki roll and a fancy suicide roll (a more expensive, and spicy option) are the stand-out menu items for me. Udon soups are generously portioned and also very good.
This is actually spelt wrong. But, I go here atleast once a week and I love it!!!
I have yet to figure out what Hi Dozo actually means, and if this place is called Hi Dozo or Hi Dojo. In any event, the food is consistently good, the rolls are a bit more imaginative than your standard Dynamite/California combo, and the staff are incredi
Excellent place. Great service and good food. Had Monkey Brain sushi.Tasted fantastic and really good presentation. Go in and ask what's in it.Also had the Udon soup with beef,well presented and tasty. Prices are average.
I work in a nearby mall.
I eat Chirashidon at this restaurant once a week.
Their food ingredients are very fresh. The food ingredients and taste are very good.
The server is very kind.
I highly recommend this restaurant
Their food is delicious! It's my dad's favourite sushi place and he's a very picky eater. Miso soup has a lot of seaweed and tofu which most restaurants don't include. Sushi is fresh tasting and their special rolls are really good.
Definitely one of my absolute favourite sushi restaurants… not just in New West 😁 Not only is the food great and very reasonably priced but the staff are so nice as well! The chefs always thank you before you leave and wave from the kitchen as they busily prepare food. You don’t encounter that often these days.
