Sushi Garden
Japanese Restaurant

4635 Kingsway,
Burnaby, B.C.
(604) 436-0104

My favorite sushi restuarant.
Great prices, huge portions, fresh food.
Korean-owned, not Japanese,
but you'll get over that after one visit.

MY FAVORITES :

APPETIZERS:
Miso Soup (very hearty!)
Ebi Sunomono
(huge, but not as good as other places)

ENTREES:
Tempura Udon
California Combo
Spicy Tuno Combo
Sashimi & Sushi Combo
Spicy Tuna Sashimi
Toro Sashimi

SUSHI!:
California Roll
Alaska Roll (best ever!)
Chopped Scallop Roll
Bill's Roll
Spicy Tuna Tempura Roll

MY IGNORE LIST:

not too impressed with the Chicken Katsu Roll

EXTRAS:

OK, number one thing is that you have to expect bad service.
For some reason, they like to be short-staffed.
I usually start to feel sorry for the servers working so hard
and thus find it easier deal with the service.

They've recently renovated and expanded to twice their original
size... which is a good thing because the old place was small and
uncomfortable.

As for the food, I only listed the stuff I've tried.
But I hardly ever order something that I don't find delicious.
So go nuts and experiment!!

Finally, if you order out, if they say it'll be ready in 30 minutes,
and it's peak time for dinner, expect it to take more like an hour.
Believe me, I've waited many times for over an hour
(almost an hour and a half once!)

If you end up loving their food,
you'll forgive them for it later when you eat.

Oh yeah, and the Alaska Rolls are to DIE FOR!!!
