I've always loved fujiya for two simple reasons. One is convience and two is a healthier option. Whenever I'm in a rush doing errands or driving all day in and out of traffic, it's better then junk fast food. I wanted to highlight one particular item that this fujiya location has and the Grandview location doesn't.
The mini salmon box set. It's $4.95!
You get your omega 3 for the day and this meal fuels you better then fast food drive thru junk. Can't go wrong with this on the go, or even for people who work downtown on a lunch break.

Great variety and relatively cheap compared to all the other food nearby. I just started working in one of the Bentall Towers and find lunch an incredibly difficult time in my day. The food around here is either too expensive (think $12+ for lunch) or fast food. One of my coworkers recommended me going to Fujiya in Bentall 1. It took me 3 lunches to finally find where the Fujiya was (walking on West Pender, if you see the Quiznos, the Fujiya is literally right behind it). This little market also carries a modest selection of Asian snacks (Pocky, chips, drinks, bowl noodles etc) along with their varied sushi, soups, gyoza, bento boxes, and rice bowls. Today I got the Nigiri & Hosomaki combo $3.95 and the chopped scallop roll $4.75. It was okay, somewhat fresh, but nothing special. I can't say it was delicious but It was definitely filling and overall satisfying (better than supermarket sushi). I popped in at around 1:15pm and there was no line up and still a good variety of sushi left (my coworkers say there may be lineups during the lunch rush, but it moves fast). I definitely see myself coming back for lunch a few times a week. If you work in the area or want a quick eat I would recommend checking the place out!
And my pick from Fujiya is Spider Roll ($4.95) and Gyoza ($2.25). As I cannot find a sushi roll that’s over $6 at Fujiya, I just grab Spider Roll, one of their priciest ones. Spider Roll is one of my favorites and it constantly reminds me how I fell in love with sushi for the very first time back in California. Although the roll is not not freshly made per order, I can still taste the crunch from the deep fried soft shell crab. There is a lot of crab meat which tastes quite decent. I even found crab roe in one of the pieces! Gyoza isn’t bad either for just over $2. But it needs about 30 secs in the microwave – I like my dumplings warm!
Cheap pre-made sushi. Not the best in terms of taste, but adequate. Good place for a quick bite.
Really cute little shop, lots of choices in food and drink for a very good price. Enjoyed every bite, just sad I didn't find this place sooner.

Hard to find, but worth it.. Fujiya can be a little hard to find - it's buried in a ground level warren of lottery ticket and sandwich shops at the base of 1050 W. Pender. Once people find it, though, they tend to go back. Fujiya sells a wide variety of take out Japanese lunches: ten to fifteen different kinds of sushi and maki rolls, donburi, several deep fried pork cutlet and salmon dishes, sunomono and much more. Today I opted for a small triangle of rice with salmon wrapped in nori ($1.50), and a chirashi donburi for $5.95 (see photo at top left). Because the food is all pre-made, the rice is very cold and a little on the tough side, but the rice in the chirashi don broke up nicely when I mixed it around with the seafood. The place feels very authentically Japanese, and aside from the take-out lunches they have a wide variety of Japanese groceries - soups, cookies, candy and more Pocky than I've ever seen in one place. This would be a fun place to pick up a picnic with someone from out of town - it's a quick walk from Fujiya down to Coal Harbour. Recommended for a cheap-and-cheerful lunch.
Simple Sushi. A-la-carte sushi at its best. Simple, tasty and express.
I don’t why I have never written anything on Fujiya Downtown. I go there at least 2-3 times a week, and even more during a period when I’m on a tighter budget. Although there are quite a few other tasty choices in my office building (1050 Pender st): Greenday Salad, Quizno, Koffi, and O’Love Bistro. I go to Fujiya the most, where the value of the food is unbeatable. I had a Black Cod lunch bento box today. Although they did not give me the best cut of the black cod, but the 2 generously sized pieces of black cod collar just happened to he most flavourful parts on the fish. The preparation was simple: just seared or grilled then finished in the oven with a little miso and soy. But the freshness and the richness of the fish were just enough to please. There were also other condiments that came with the bento box: half of a boiled egg, a little chunk of konjac jelly, a taro root ball...
Woah this place is bumping during lunch hour! With the flood of office bees buzzing in (too corny?) this place was packed with a huge line up! Thankfully the ladies working there were fast, and sent everybody on their way in no time! Tuna Tataki 3/5 stars I saw someone with this and I just had to get it haha, cause I love tuna tataki! There were about 12 pieces and also came with some ginger and soy sauce on the side. It was garnished with some ginger and onion for some added flavour. Aside from the ginger, the tataki wasn't marinated in any kind of sauce so I guess that's what the soy sauce was for haha! Black Cod Bento 3/5 stars This was a steal! A bento for under $6? No wonder this place is packed! They have a microwave and a little seating area for you to munch on your food! It came with 3 huge pieces of fish,
Fujiya is a sushi takeout store that sells freshly made pre-packaged sushi, miso soup, donburi bowls, bento boxes, and some grocery items.This is the home of the $2.95 California roll! If you have a small appetite, this will be enough to fill your tummy till dinner time! As a bonus, tea is complementary with a purchase (self serve on the left of the entrance), don’t miss out! Try to avoid peak lunch hours where the lineup is crazily long all the way outside the door! I picked up the infamous $2.95 Califonia roll today. The roll is quite good considering the price paid and that it is in downtown!! It’s fresh and standard. There’s some consistency issues though with the rice I had before. For a few times, the rice was too hard when I went too late in the afternoon while other times, the rice was too wet and sour. But how can you ask for more for only $3?! Summary & Rating: Service: 7.6/10 – great service as the cashiers remained calm and efficient with a smile and kept eye contact even
