Some of the best and most authentic Japanese food in Victoria! Their Karaage chicken is amazing, and the restaurant atmosphere is fantastic. Staff are always super kind and welcoming!
I've spent some time in Japan and Sen Zushi is easily the best, most authentic sushi/Japanese cuisine in Victoria. There's a reason every time I go here it's packed with Japanese ESL students. There's a reason lunch is almost always packed here. It's the real deal.
You want sushi. You want to be eating here.
Don't be fooled by the random 1 star reviews based on a series of mishaps that could, and in fact do, happen in any restaurant on any given night. The staff and service here are always excellent.
Having gone here regularly for years, (and when they were at the temporary location on Store st.), I have a slightly larger, and thus more accurate pool of experiences to draw upon than your random disgruntled diner with wifi and some emotional, knee-jerk mud to sling. Not once have I ever had a bad experience at Sen Zushi.
Great to have you back after the fire Sen Zushi! The new place looks amazing! :)
Senzushi is one of my favourite Japanese restaurants of Victoria. The sushi rice is beautifully seasoned and the ingredients are always fresh. The portions are good for the price and they have more traditional and authentically japanese menu options that other restaurants do not which is nice.
The restaurant is always clean and th service is always top notch. The servers are always pleasant and the food comes quickly even when it is busy.
Always super happy after eating here!
We haven't been here in many years. A friend mentioned they really enjoyed the food there from a recent visit so we decided to go back. We went for lunch and was very impressed with the service, the food was excellent, and the ambiance was intimate and welcoming. Went back for our daughter's birthday lunch and she absolutely loved it as she is vegetarian and they have a lot on the menu to offer. Recently, my wife and I went back a 3rd time for my birthday lunch and we tried something different on the menu and came away equally impressed and absolutely loved quality of the meal, the presentation and the great service. Highly recommended.
It's a good Japanese food place in Victoria. Love the vibe and atmosphere. Service was great but a bit slow which was understandable since they were super busy.
The main dishes and sushi rolls are okay. Special rolls are really good👌 there were no sits available so we sat at the sushi bar. But it was okay since the bar table was bigger than normal.
overall a 4.5 experience and recommended 👌
The atmosphere and the food were both fantastic! The sushi rice was a bit salty, making me drink a lot of water, but it was delicious. I can't wait to go back!
Fantastic restaurant, great food, exemplary service. We will definitely be back again, a lot of great things on the menu. Some of the atmosphere slightly dated, but that adds to the charm.
Great food, the portion is fair compared to the price. We are very happy about the food. Love to come back again!
First time I went to this restaurant and I couldn’t suggest a better place to get sushi! The menu has a wide variety of food choices and amazing drink selection, our server was a very kind and professional man who made the experience even better and was lovely to talk too! And as someone who has worked in a sushi restaurant this was such a great experience and the atmosphere was a very comfortable space to be in and has lots of beautiful artwork to admire while eating! My boyfriend and I got the takoyaki, miso soup, negitoro maki, dynamite roll, BC roll and the karage Roll and it was all so good!!! We will most definitely be coming back :)
It's easy to miss this spot if you're just strolling the street - look for the Cigar shop that it's connected too and you're in the right place.
It's spacious and beautifully decorated. Every staff member has been lovely in my 2 visits.
I love the combos/bentos and will be back. They seem to do everything well but it's more like a great everyday sushi spot vs a knock-your-socks-off experience.
sen zushi is best sushi restaurant in greater victoria. If you choose this place, you will never fail.
Hands down this was the very best sushi I've ever had! The fish was so incredibly fresh, tender, and flavourful. I had the chirashi don and while on the pricier side ($35) it could easily feed 2 people. The coconut ice cream was a perfect way to end the meal. Great atmosphere, great service, and truly outstanding food. 10/10, would go back in a heartbeat!
