We love the food, and service. It is always busy, but worth the wait. My family loves celebrating their birthdays there. Great deal on birthday days.
Great food. Large, descriptive menu. Prompt and friendly service and almost no time at all for our food to arrive. Decorated nicely and it went from empty when we arrived to completely full when we left! Definitely our new local sushi joint.
Food and customer is awesome! We come here every week as we live a few blocks away!
Delicious Japanese food in a cozy spot.
Just off West Broadway & Granville, it’s a convenient place to get to.
Been here a couple of times & always great service & food.
The sashimi always top quality as it’s sliced perfectly & melts in your mouth.
The assorted tempura is crispy & crunchy with the standard root vegetables & 4 lightly battered prawns. Great share plate.
The sushi variety is amazing. The Nude Boy replaces the seaweed with rice paper roll, the crab meat & the finishing sauce complimented the overall roll.
The Bacon Mountain is an impressive roll, bacon wrapped around the sushi roll topped with crisp shards of tempura.
The salmon oshi is good portion, large slices than others I’ve tried.
My recommendation- try any of the special rolls & if you are definitely try the Nude Boy. The sashimi is also a go to dish.
I wasn’t expecting much from this place: it’s really humble looking; the chefs and staff are Korean; and it’s so cheap, I was wondering: is the food going to be good? But it’s a favourite of my mom’s and I ended up going there with her and my brother on my trip to Vancouver. Some great dishes, like the black cod.
First time going here at the suggestion of a friend. We came here on a weekday around 12. It wasn’t too busy right before noon, but as soon as it was noon several groups started coming in and a line began to form. Good thing I got in here before then lol. It was louder in here than I expected. This is a Korean run sushi restaurant and we were given Korean chopsticks as well which aren’t great for picking up sushi.
My experience here at sushi van was pretty decent. It was almost a 4 rating, except the decor kinda dampens your experience. Service is friendly and prices are very friendly. It's definitely a great place for people wanting to eat frugal. I would come back again for take out. I got the Spicy salmon roll and chicken katsu. They were delicious!
Try the Love Love roll (❤️) and the salmon rose sashimi. If you are dining alone get the Tokyo Tower ("donburi"). This place used to be better when they used green tea rice in their sushi rolls. I'm not sure why they decided to take that out but now I'm disappointed and it has become more average.
excellent choice for sushi in Fairview. The sashimi was delicious and the rolls that my kids got were good too. I couldn't believe how cheap it was. I would have given a 4.5 but the food was much more excellent than the setting and decor.

Sushi Van is located on Granville near Broadway, and is among one of my favourite spots to have lunch with my colleagues since it’s close by and we don’t really have any other sushi restaurants nearby. It’s tucked away underneath the Vancouver Bullion Currency Exchange, so is a bit of a hidden gem for some. The tiny, but busy restaurant is run by Koreans, but the food is still pretty authentic and there are some decent eats.
i go here often for lunch, the lunch specials are good, beef and chicken bentos are good, rolls are good, the tempura was off, i think the oil should be changed more frequently.
but all in all, a good spot, try to get their before 12 or after 1 to avoid the busy lunch queue
Sushi Van is one of the few sushi restaurants in the Broadway/Granville area. Their food is of higher quality than Sushi Town/ Garden and their service is friendly and efficient. 12 pieces of tuna and salmon sashimi is only $9- a great value in my books! The "Tokyo Tower" has a tasty mish mash of flavours as it contains layers of rice, spicy tuna, imitation crab, and chopped scallop!
