VMarch 16, 2015Salmon Oshi Sushi and Ebi Oshi Sushi are the best. The Minami Zen box is great value and includes two of the Salmon Oshi Sushi. You can also order half orders of the sushi and rolls.
Nina NguyenSeptember 28, 2014Loved the sushi à la carte, decently priced, fresh and creative. Happy hour on Thursdays from 3-6 consists of $10 for a pint of Asahi beer & a plate of gyozas. Cool and crisp ambiance for trendy crowd
Vivian ChanAugust 31, 2014Tried their 3 course Minami set, starts with a 7 pieces sushi selection, entree of sable fish and beef tenderloin, finished with green tea ice cream and cake. All for $60, great deal!! All yummy too.
Mariana OliveiraMay 20, 2016Sooo good! The sushi are amazing and I just love how tasty the kaisen soba pepperoncino tasted! They carry a more simple menu for afternoons! If you wanna have all options go for dinner!
Tania RAugust 31, 2018We learned a lot about sake while enjoying the delicious tasting course. If you're looking to go for drinks afterwards this restaurant is very well located with loads of bars on the same street.
Behi ShAugust 26, 2017Not a sushi fan ?? Try this restaurant! You will fall in love with sushi.. Staff were amazing! Beside sushi order the prawn! It was incredibly delicious!
Sean HuangJuly 1, 2017The salmon oshi and mackerel oshi are to die. The salmon oshi is buttery with a jalapeño kick. For those of you that love mackerel, the oshi has a perfect balance between smoky and salty flavors.
Valerian BanuOctober 21, 2018Amazing sushi selection! Excellent service. It's a fancy dinner restaurant, that's why it's pricier than a regular sushi place. The green tea cake was very good as well.
Gaston Motola AcunaSeptember 26, 2017Supposedly a high end Japanese restaurant, great service, prices are not cheap, portions r small and they taste decent. Not the best value if you ask me, but it's decent and has great decor/atmosphere
Maria FarkasJanuary 13, 2017Doesn't matter what food you order @Minami everything tastes so delicious. We had octopus, pork trio, aburi sushi..Couldn't get enough of it.
Angela ChangJuly 6, 2016My favourite at Minami & Miku will always be the Aburi Salmon Oshi Sushi, hands down. The Saba one is also quite tasty also. For dessert - Green Tea Opera!
Dominic RiosMarch 26, 2019In my opinion, it’s only a matter of time before this restaurant earns a Michelin Star. Definitely worth a trip for any of their specialty rolls.- JiMarch 16, 2015Don't over think it. Salmon Oshi Sushi and Ebi Oshi Sushi. In fact getting the minami zen is great value and includes the Salmon Oshi.
Jennifer LiuMay 7, 2013Aburi anything is amazing, the saba was my fav. For dessert: green tea opera, so good!
- If your not sure what to order: try the Aburi select. You get a variety of their popular signature Aburi Dish! (it's the one on the right side on photo)
Solid lunch and dinner menu, a great follow-up effort to parent restaurant Miku. Any of the aburi sushis are a must to go with your meal!
Sharon FungDecember 9, 2015More farm to table concept than Miku. You'll find more chicken and beef here than seafood but still as good!
Cath TanJuly 2, 2016The squishy salmon sushi never disappoints. Other dishes are pretty solid too but the salmon sushi is a must.
Esther EstebanOctober 1, 2016Nice place, nice staff, and nicefood! Let your waiter drive you over the menu.
Brenno Luiz GraciottiSeptember 7, 2016most amazing sushis and nigiri I've ever had! go for the "salmon oshi" (or something like that)
If you're going as a party of two or maybe even three, sit at the Sushi Bar. The Chef are quite entertaining:)
PaulineMay 5, 2013Try the aburi salmon roll it's extraordinary and try the cocktails with Japanese alcohol it's the perfect combination !
- Patti MJune 21, 2012Sit at the sushi bar and watch the amazing, super friendly chefs make the tasty aburi salmon oshi sushi
Yaletown Business Improvement AssociationJuly 11, 2012Yaletown workers, be sure to present your Yaletown business card to receive 10% off of your lunch at Minami, between the hours of 11:30am-3:00pm, Monday-Friday!
Felipe CastilloJanuary 22, 2014One of the best sushi in my life, also if your lucky try the breaded tempeh!- Júlio VizaMay 20, 2016It's an outstanding experience, the staff are cordial and friendly, I totally recommend it!
The spicy pork gyoza is one of the best ever gyoza I have ever tried- Maria FarkasJanuary 13, 2017Doesn't matter what you choose to eat @Minami everything tastes so good.
- The aburi Ebi Oshi Sushi and aburi Salmon is so yummy. Get it! It's worth it.
Y SOctober 11, 2016Very limited sushi and sashimi options. The best option is their signature sushi, which i found just alright and not authentic. The hot dishes we had were not good.
Chefs FeedSeptember 24, 2015David Hawksworth, chef of Hawksworth Restaurant, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Aburi salmon oshi sushi. Read more
Carl TydingcoOctober 10, 2015The aburi oshi offerings are quite delicious. The rest of the menu is kind of meh. Service was spotty.
