Nice japanese food with organic ingredients. The highlight is the sushi which is made with brown rice but still tastes delicious!
Items had:
- Vegetarian roll : Really good and delicious
- Lotus root: Different than expected but still yummy!
- vegetarian udon noodles : good but a tad sweet. I would skip these and just order more of the yummy sushi!
- cauliflower tempura: great appetizer and definitely recommended.
The service also was really good and our waitress kept checking on us to make sure we were happy. Definitely recommend this place to fulfill Japanese food cravings for vegetarians.

Found Shizenya on Yelp and we came to here for breakfast because of the review and the price. The price turned out to be not much cheaper than other restaurants, but their ingredients seem healthy.
We ordered an eggplant appetizer, chicken udon lunch combo, tuna nigiri and shiawase for dessert. The eggplant might be the best out on all, because the sauce was nice (a bit too much). The udon flavor is a bit lacking and I think it might be because they are going for something really healthy. They used chicken breast in the udon and it's just chicken breast tastes like chicken breasts, nothing special (although I've had really good chicken breast from Costco). The shiawase was misleading because on the menu it looks like jelly, but it's just pudding. The nice thing about the pudding is that it's vegan and made out of pumpkin.
Overall the experience is okay. Healthy ingredients but I do expect slight better tasting food as I'm eating at the restaurant. It would be nice if they figured out how to really balance their sauce and flavor (ex. Eggplant sauce and syrup for pudding was too much, udon is too bland). If you want to come here, I would recommend coming during lunch time and get the lunch combo special. It has more variety.

Might have been my choice of order, but the food was not good. It had no flavour, good nor bad. Meat quality was good but the dish was basic and a waste of money
I chose the braised chicken with rice. I thought it would be like Oyaku Don (or a not deep Fried Chicken Kutsu Don).

I really like that most of the items on the menu are organic. Good was delicious and the service was great. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.

As a vegan, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here. The yam tempura rolls and the pumpkin dessert is life changing. The miso udon is a little sweet but very flavourful. Really loved this place and hope to come back if I visit Vancouver again!

I love this restaurant!! Me and my husband are almost regulars of this restaurant for many years. The quality has always been very good; food is always fresh, healthy and tasty. Service is very friendly and prices are good. We've brought many friends and family here over the years who enjoyed the food and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for some good sushi!

Great quality ingredients and nice service, but the food was quite bland. I was really disappointed with the beef udon, and spicy salmon roll that I had. There was nothing spicy about that salmon!!!!
