Great food with well sized portions. The oil was fresh and the tempura wasn't greasy. They are losing points on service. Long waits for tea and water.
1/2 Roll opened not too long ago and is situated on Main street off King Edward St. We were actually planning on going to Hawker's Delight, but because that was quite packed and it didn't seem like it had air conditioning, my friend suggested we go across the street for some sushi. 1/2 Roll used to be Itadakimasu, which is where the sushi in cute little balls (that were surfacing on my Instagram) came from. Unfortunately, I never had a chance to try Itadakimasu and now it has probably changed owners and is now known as 1/2 Roll. As their name says it, this sushi restaurant allows you to order half rolls, which I think is quite nice. If you're just going with one other person (like I did), then that allows you to have more variety. However, it didn't seem like their menu was promoting the 1/2 roll concepts as when the menu came, I totally forgot that we could order half rolls.

Excellent food. Best sashimi salad I've had so far. The Salmon Oshi (as others recommended) Is a must-try. Had the Bara Chirashi bowl and Chicken Katsu bowl. Both were amazing. I think this place is high quality. Will return.
Love it!! Lunch sushi boxes are a great value and they only use wild sockeye salmon for sashimi, nigiri and grilled. The owner is super friendly and quality of food is very fresh! We visit this restaurant at least once a week!
Fantastic Resturant with great food and even better service ! Very much recommended
Great Food and Service I li.... Great Food and Service
I like this place!Servers are very friendly.Both sushi and cooked food are great.This is one of my favorite sushi place in vancouver!
Love their fresh food and 1/2 roll idea. I can try different rolls and all I tried are good. Will recommend to my friends.
Fresh Oysters. Sooooo fresh
Highly recommend ! great food, reasonable price.. Great sushi place. very clean, nicely renovated, it has a huge Tokyo street photograph on the wall gives you a very Asia feeling. good for few friends to have cup of sake spend a nice evening. Anyway , the food is GREAT , I love their Tuna Tetekki, it is the best, Highly recommend. I been to so many other sushi place, when they make tuna tetekki, they only seared the edge, but 1/2 Roll sushi sear the whole thing, so it won't taste so raw, but still has the fresh and melting tasting. And, the most amazing thing is I could just order a half roll !!! so we tried many different variety of rolls, I really think it is so smart to sale the roll by 1/2 order ! And the price is very reasonable. I already been there two time only last week !And I will sure go again. : )
