Sushi Sky

Sushi Sky on Urbanspoon

A very small sushi restaurant near Davie St. in downtown. It has 2 small tables, so most of the orders are for take out. It’s very crammed, and did not look sanitary. It was run down, and dirty. I wouldn’t want to eat there, nor the food that comes from there, but Sheepie insisted I try it out. Also, there was a guy before us who was waiting for a take out, and another single guy dining in. Ok, so there are some customers…I guess that’s a good sign…

We ordered the negitoro roll $2.50, 2 salmon nigiri and Combo 4 $7+ which had ebi, salmon and tuna nigiri with a 6 piece California roll. I thought the price for the negitoro was very cheap, but the Combo is pretty expensive!

Presentation wise, the negitoro rolls were falling apart. One of the salmon was a bit discoloured so I didn’t eat it, but Sheepie did and he was fine. The flower carved into the carrot was a nice decor, but appearance wise, that was it. Even though we didn’t order that much, they gave us 4 packs (those little plastic cups with lids) of soya sauce. A bit excessive, but I guess it’s good for those who like to use a lot of soya sauce. As for taste, it was ok. Nothing spectacular. I think for the same price, the negitoro is better at Jako. And for the same $7, you can get a better deal at Momo Sushi by ordering one of the bento boxes!

Combo 4 $7….expensive!

Negitoro $2.50

They were quick and efficient, and the offer of tea, even for take out is a nice gesture. However, with so many better options in downtown Vancouver, it would be at the bottom of my to-go-to sushiya.
