Hon-jin Yaletown Sushi

Hello hello! How is everyone doing? I can’t believe that it’s already the long weekend and somehow April is practically over. Time flies when you’re busy…hence this short and sweet post. Get it? That’s why there’s a picture of a mini blizzard? It’s short and sweet? Oh nevermind…

We had several robata items: ebi shiitake, saba shioyaki, tara miso, yaki nasu, unagi kabayaki. I like how they didn't put too much spice or sauce for their rotaba items, so the original taste of the food is still there. They all look presentable; however, the unagi can be less blackened (I hardly see the color of the unagi). For the hotate and hamachi sushi, the rice portion is small but the fish portion is big. The tuna and salmon sashimi look and taste fine.<br/ <br/ The service is good for take-out. The staff gave us all the details without us asking on the phone: he repeated the order, gave us the total, and told us the approx. time for pick up. He also asked us if we want regular or sockeye salmon for the sashimi, and they use the Japanese motif box for the sashimi instead of the regular styrofoam box. These attributes make me want to try the other food from them.

Always delicious! Service is great. Sushi is very high quality and fresh. Love the Fish Karage, Yaletown and Rainforest rolls and the Teriyaki chicken!

Second time in this restaurant, it's probably one of the best Japanese restaurants at this price range in Yaletown. Roomy atmosphere with very friendly staff, not overly attentive just to the right amount of service.<br/ <br/ Ordered the seafood okonomiyaki, salmon sashimi, and sanma shioyaki. The okonomiyaki is a not dry enough, nor is it flavour rich enough compared to those I've had in Osaka, but I'd say it is of a pretty good standard. The other 2 dishes as expected no surprises, but good quality.

Love this place ! Always fast and very friendly service, with good prices ! They have a incredible outside eating area where you can enjoy the sound of children laughing and playing ! Fun place and great food ! Will be back !
