I was SO impressed by the service offered by this restaurant. The waitresses were really polite to us when we walked in and constantly came back to check up on us. We ordered, and literally less than a minute later, the food was already ready, plated and handed to us.
Tastewise, the sushi is nice, but not exceptionally good. I ordered the SC Roll (8 pieces of cucumber, cream cheese and smoked salmon sushi) and the Chopped Scallop Roll. I enjoyed the SC Roll more because of the cream cheese. The chopped scallop roll was very average; it definitely could have been better. I also tried Maki A, i.e the California Roll and Dynamite Roll, both of which weren't super exceptional to me either.
Would definitely recommend coming here if you are a big sushi fan!
Tokyo Joe’s is one of those local favourites. Everyone in the neighbourhood raves about them. Prior to this visit, we had bought take-outs from Tokyo Joe’s, and we were always amazed by their speedy service. We would order a 30 to 50 piece party tray, and the sushi would be rolled and packed within five minutes!
Love this place!! Service is great, atmosphere is nice and the sushi is spot on!! One of the best miso soups I’ve had. Prices are also better than other places in the city.
With so many options for Japanese restaurants I have never thought to dine at Tokyo Joe Sushi. One day I was by chance nearby and decided to dine there. The restaurant is small but despite that, they have a huge selection of sushi. Take a look at their extensive menu here :). It’s a really simple but cute restaurant. There were not many tables but so many servers! (I saw maybe 10 outside?). The employees were dressed in cute Japanese uniforms with those white bands tied around their forehead (soooo cute). Service was really quick, we got our food fast. I would recommend this place if you want is the place to go for cheap and fast sushi. I don’t say that they are the best, but for their price, the food is tasty and they give generous servings. Not to mention they have a self serve miso soup station with garnishes (all you can drink miso soup! 🙂 ).
Stopped by to satisfy my sushi cravings before heading to my friend's house. Had their Tokyo Joe roll (you can't go wrong with avocado and tuna tataki), tried their Soo Special (it's an inari and listed under nigiri), and had an appetizer sashimi. The inari was delicious and surprisingly had no rice in it. It was filled to the brim with spicy tuna!! It was delicious.
This is your typical Korean Sushi place. Large portions and great prices. There is nothing fancy about the location as it is simply for a quick meal and go!
My go to place when I want a quick fix of sushi. Their party tray are great for dinner as well! Service is very friendly and fast. I'd recommend trying the chirashi Don, comes with variety of sushi on rice.
and I mean, who doesn't love free miso soup?

Had a late lunch here yesterday with a friend on her recommendation. I'd frequently heard Tokyo Joe's name being thrown around whenever I discussed sushi joints with fellow Richmondites so I had to give it a try! The rolls we ordered were: jumbo scallop roll, ackroyd roll, jumbo dynamite roll. and a white tiger roll. The scallop roll was rather underwhelming, but given it was one of the "budget rolls" this was to be expected. The ackroyd roll, labelled on the menu as a "spicy" roll, was also a bit of a let-down given its steeper price. It wasn't very spicy... SURPRISE! Whereas we found the jumbo dynamite (which was HUGE) and the white tiger roll to both be quite tasty! Lastly, we had a prawn tempura; portion size was generous though the fried coating felt a tad under cooked in my opinion. I was definitely surprised by how fast all our food came! Service-wise it was a bit of a hassle flagging down a waitress, yet to be fair we did go at a rather busy time. All in all Tokyo Joe's is a slightly above-average sushi restaurant. There are better sushi places (especially in Richmond), but you can also certainly do worse.
This place is one of those hole in the wall, zero atmosphere places, but with good, quick, tasty food. They are fast and give you good value. Unlimited miso soup (delicious!) and good sized rolls. Their party platters are a good mix of different rolls and great for sharing.
Solid sushi place. Not high end but great service and tasty rolls. Not a fan of miso myself but pretty cool they have it free.
Dynamite and spider rolls were ridiculously oversized but I don't mind getting messy for good eats so didn't bother me. They held together well enough to bite them in half and pick up the second bite without dropping it everywhere.
Really friendly service too.
Delicious rolls. Black dragon roll has a fancy tail on each roll. Crazy rolls are big and tasty. Tempura were properly cooked, not oily. Will skip yam tempura next time, they were very thin and can hardly taste it.
My cousin lives close to this restaurant so we always buy from here. It's affordable and taste great. Although it's not the best quality, it's really good for the price especially their spicy sushis. Their service is extremely fast, but there is nothing much to say about anything else. The chicken karaage is not that good but still ok. It's a good place to grab good and budget friendly sushis quickly.
Ordered take out. Was ready for pick up in 10 minutes. I got the party tray D. I thought it was a reasonable price for the amount of sushi. I liked it. They take cash and debit only.
Always such good food for a good price. Particularly love their House Roll, Salmon Avocado Roll, and Agedashi Tofu. Party Tray B is a good choice for our family of 6.
Great experience, friendly staff, fantastic value.
We were walking in the area when we found Tokyo Joe's Sushi and went on a whim, why not?
Pricing was super affordable, so we got an entire platter to share.
The sushi is high quality, fresh, and delicious.
Highly recommended the Beef roll, my personal favorite. My friends said the California Roll was incredible, same with the Dynamite roll.
Definitely our go to Sushi for the area now!

I would strongly recommend this restaurant if you are near the skytrain in Central Richmond. Their chicken teriyaki rice plate was delicious. I loved when the staff echoed the orders which was so unique. The staff was very friendly. High turnover makes me trust the food here. The tea and tufu miso that came with my meal was so Yummy! I saw the huge portion size of sushi being served at other tables and the portion size of the hot food was great, see pics.
Some improvements should be done regarding the following constructive feedback:
- I should have said I wanted it saucy when I placed my order. LoL. The rice plate could use some more not watery teriyaki sauce to finish the rice with.
- The salad came with something like a white ranch dressing instead of a clear japanese vinegrette. The customer should be given the option to choose the type of dressing or vinegrette.
- My friends prefered a lemon slice instead of an orange slice on the salad for dinner.
- The ambiance was not authentic japanese but looked like a fast food joint.
- The service was great, eating area was clean, the waiter was knowledgeable and I did not smell anything fishy even though sushi was being prepared nearby.
- The yam tempura was 6 slices of white yam, cut into thin slices under 1/8" thickness, each slice was inconsistent and it was overpriced. Not good value for money and I hope this will be addressed to create value for customers. I pulled out the thin sliced yam that looked like a potatoe chip but I was left with more tempura batter than yam. Some spots in the tempura batter was raw because the oil was too hot. The quality of the food leaving the kitchen should have been checked before serving. The chef and food prep staff should be retrained. I am used to the 6 slices of 1/2" thick cut bright color yam not white yam at other japanese restaurants which is better value and cost less than $10.
- The hot meals should come with an option of a tempura side which will give a competitive edge.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
