It's food court Japanese, not fine cuisine, but it's decent and the price is right. Surprisingly good tempura veg. Friendly service.

Love This Family Owned Restaurant...ten years and counting!. When I visit a restaurant, two things I insist on: Fresh food in sparkling clean surroundings. And Little Tokyo delivers on both counts.
I’ve been visiting Little Tokyo since a dedicated and professional family took over ten years ago. One of the things I love about it is the cleanliness. It is sparkling clean and the food is prepared right out in the open with meticulous care.
Tucked away in a corner of the Admiral’s Walk Shopping Center in Victoria, a mother and daughter team work tirelessly six-days a week to provide the freshest and tastiest fast food Sushi and piping-hot Tappanyaki food in View Royal. (Dine in —Take out).
Don’t be deceived by the term “fast food” and its implications. This friendly duo prepares your meal to order right in front of you and you may be surprised at the variety of dishes they whip up; from Seafood Udon soup to fresh sushi rolls and an exhaustive list of Nigiri and Hand Cones (Tamaki) (from $2.25) along with succulent Teppan chicken, beef and seafood dishes hot off the grill. I notice they also have a colourful array of party trays for take-out.
My favourite dish —which I brought home tonight — is the Teriyaki Chicken (Large with Prawns. $8.25 + $2.75 extra for the prawns.) For .50 I substituted noodles for the standard rice. Again it was delicious. The Teriyaki Hawaiian Chicken is another favourite of mine.
I added some Spring Rolls (4) with sweet plum sauce and honestly I overdid it. I dined alone and the meal, which cost about $15.25, was more than enough for two. Not only does this restaurant deliver on the tastiest food and service; the value is unsurpassed.
Although I’ve spent a lifetime in the restaurant business I admit I’m no connoisseur of sushi per se but I know when I’m eating something fresh and flavourful and here Little Tokyo excels. I have an Asian friend who visits occasionally from Taiwan. He has enjoyed sushi in Japan, Uganda, Hong Kong and Macau. He is arriving in November and he tells me Little Tokyo is once again top of his lunch list.
I highly recommend this restaurant. It is well worth a visit and I wish this family another successful ten years in business — they deserve it.
PS: I notice from some comments posted here that the competition in the area isn't too happy with the success of this little gem. Well you know the old adage: "If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen..."
Service was really friendly, and the price was good.
I ordered a Assorted Sushi Tray. It worths the price. Can’t expect superior taste though.
Awesome little family-run Japanese spot. Fast, friendly, reasonably-priced, and delicious.
Little Tokyo is a hole-in-the-wall Japanese restaurant (that is currently only doing take-out due to COVID-19). They are FANTASTIC, but I do recommend that you call ahead to place your order! This all only came to $54 after tax. (My partner and I ordered too much!)
They did a great job of taking my random order of rolls for my kids party into two really nice party trays.
Fantastic and fresh food. The tempura was unexpectedly excellent. Far from downtown, Little Tokyo may be overlooked by many but it absolutely has some of the city's best Japanese fare. Not to be missed by anyone looking for authentic Japanese food!
The sushi is really good for ‘fast food’
What they can improve on is the price. Both the website and menu photos are all the old prices.. Coming from living in Vancouver where it’s incredibly cheap to get 4 rolls for $10 here you’re lucky to get 2 rolls for $12. Please update your website and online google menu to reflect what the prices are now 😁👍🏼

Delicious healthy Asian food cooked right in front of you while you wait. Quick friendly service. Take out or eat in. Very clean and bright atmosphere and convenient location. We will visit again or order take out.
Use to eat here regularly when I worked in the neighborhood. Food is good, priced well, and service is great. Recently went back for old time sake. Still great food and they remembered me.
My family loves eating at this restaurant! They have the friendliest and most helpful staff plus their restaurant is clean and inviting. Their teriyaki sauce is THE BEST in Victoria so we never go to other Japanese restaurants because Little Tokyo is #1! Their soups, sushi, and cooked meals are delicious with large portions and quality ingredients. Now having recently become vegans, we weekly get take-out of their tasty Tofu Teriyaki on rice. I can’t recommend them enough! 10/10!!
Not only was the service amazing, it was fast and the food was DELICIOUS! Highly recommend this place! The atmosphere was nice. I ordered Chicken teriyaki rolls and Beef teriyaki rolls, just mmmmmmm I'll definitely be going back ASAP
Our absolute favourite for Teppan. The staff is super friendly, always remember our faces and greet us warmly, and the food always hits the spot. This is a family restaurant our community should support.
New owner has improved service and quality of food. Super friendly and decent prices for the amount of food you get. Great place for take out😀
Highly recommended.
I had the vegetable bento box. It had grilled tofu on rice with teriyaki sauce, I tiny bit of lettuce only, with some sauce on it. No miso soup which I was hoping for. Small meal, but very tasty and filling. A little pricey for what you receive.
Had yam roll sushi and it was fantastic! Fresh, warm, inexpensive and very yummy! I will definitely go back when I'm in the area! :)
Delicious as usual. My favorite dish is the Tokyo Udon Noodles with the spring rolls. Very friendly staff.. Love this spot. ❤️
I love this place, great food, fast and efficient prep and service. Very curtious staff that always greet me and are always smiling.
