Squamish Samurai Sushi

I love samurai sushi. they have lots of vegan option. brown rice. very healthy and tasty foods. I would say this place is little gem of squamish! I love avocado roll and veggie roll. spicy akedashi tofu is pretty awesome with some miso soup. this place has very nice atmosphere. I have tried samurai sushi in whistler and I liked their restaurant. I liked it a lot so wanted to check out samurai in squamish. This place did not disappointed me I Highly recommend this place

A great stop by place, if you’re willing to wait. We waited for 15 minutes whiles scanning for any open tables! The food was good. I ordered the yam roll and the veggie roll which were both really good. Also, the agedashi tofu (spicy) but it was not good. It was more sweet then spicy and the sauce was off. It was ok.

Decent sushi in Squamish! I stopped by for a quick lunch on a Thursday, and grabbed a miso soup and a few rolls.
The interior is pretty standard, and definitely has the feel of somewhere people come to eat and go. You order at the counter (although I didn’t see any signage indicating this) and there are cups and water to the side so you can fill your own. Food is reasonably (ish) priced, and I got some pretty decent sushi for ~$ 20. The California Roll was a bit disappointing as it just looked like a fake crab stick mushed with quite a lot of avocado; don’t get me wrong, I LOVE avocado, but that was too much to be balanced. The yam-​avocado roll was good though — I liked the ratio and the flavours were good. The rolls are quite loose, but not so much that they were hard to eat.
Good for a quick lunch, but not somewhere I’d linger.

We always hit this place up when we are in the neighbourhood. Fast good food! Love this place. Great sushi good service and great options. Great value, check it out!

Came up from the states to visit Whistler And made a pitstop to grab a bite to eat. Didn’t really expect too much, but this place is amazing. Great food, great quality, and fast service.

There’s no where else to go
It’s pricey but decent for the area.
Only thing, sashimi was TINY PORTIONS and not very fresh at all

Well, after trying a few of the standard menu items, I now only order the vegetable donburi. Smoked tofu with fresh vegetables on rice makes this one of the best vegan options in town.

Surprisingly good sushi! Came here after a day of skiing and was pleasantly surprised with the selection, quality and freshness. Had the Samurai combo (includes California roll, chicken teriyaki on rice, salad, edamame and miso soup) and negitoro roll (large portion and delicious!) Will definitely come here again after Whistler.

Despite the name, I don’t think this is the same samurai sushi company as in Vancouver. They offer a lot more food options, which also includes hot food. The prices are reasonable, and the food is tasty. They also offer a brown rice option.
At this restaurant, you order first and then sit down. They will bring the food to you.

Solid Sushi served quick. You won’t find mind-​blowing creations are extravagant rolls but if you want good sushi for good value this place is solid. The nigiri is always fresh and the rolls I’ve had hit the spot.

Yum. Perfect for a late supper yesterday evening. Had the combo C which included 4 nigiri. Delish and fast.

I always enjoy the sushi here, I feel as though the SMALL town of Squamish gives this place a bad rap because they hate change. This place is Amazing for a quick fix. The salmon nigiri melts in my mouth and the house samurai roll is also amazing. I also really enjoy their spicy agedashi tofu.

We eat here often and the food is decent and not too pricey. The kids enjoy it as well. I like the spinach gomae, and I usually don’t eat spinach. 4 stars.

Horrible experience and don’t think I’ll come back unless I’m desperate for a Japanese fix while in Squamish. Ordered the beef terriyaki dinner box that said it came with spinach gomaee and salad. When I got back to the hotel to open it up, the gomaee was made with green beans and the «salad» was just some plain steamed edamame beans. Wasn’t quite looking for a side of beans and beans.
The beef terriyaki was ok — cooked with some sliced onions and served with a side of steamed white rice. A bit over-​sauced and I just don’t think this is worth $ 9. Last qualm is that everything was sprinkled with an abundance of sesame seeds. Need to chill out on the sprinkling.

the only sushi place in the plaza. good for a quick bite.

I only stopped by for an udon on my way up to Whistler, but it was pretty good.
3 stars, since it seemed like the only decent place (not to mention, one of the only places open that wasn’t a burger joint) in the strip mall to get food at 9pm.

Originally registered as «Squamish Sushi» this store is now owned or franchised just like the Samurai Sushi stores up in Whistler. I’m not sure if this store is related to the Samurai Sushi stores in Vancouver downtown and on Fraser St. near 49^th. But this place serves a mix of sushi, maki, bento box combos, donburi, and udon noodles. Food was good for the family, and extremely well priced. Taste and texture were decent for sushi. Appetizers good as well, and the salads exceptional. I have to say, the best tasting spinach sesame cold compress salad since my days hanging out in Kamakura Japan! Yeah, really! But not all the items were exceptional. The teriyaki is not truly grilled and both beef and chicken have more a soggy stewed texture like you’d get from a Yoshinoya chain store. Some folks might find this completely unacceptable, but my family and I find it quite edible. Moreoever, the tempura is fresh, crispy and whomever cooked the rice knows how to cook Calrose rice the Japanese way with correct texture, water, and process. You might not find this on older GPS units of mapping software because this strip mall extension only opened in Fall 2010. My 2009 GPS does register Glenalder Street/​Place in Squamish which is the street just behind the strip mall. Approaching from North Van/​Lions Bay/​Britannia Beach, just head north on Hwy 99 approx. 2 km past the Squamish Walmart/​Home Depot, and just before the Canadian Tire hang a right onto Manquam, then immediate left onto Glenalder which is the short road on the back side of that mall. Keep going past Cinemas and you’ll find it before reaching London Drugs. Take out boxes are popular here. At sub $ 9 CDN for a bento combination with rice, appetizer, salad and main course, this has got to be far better than doing the Tim Hortons/Wendy’s run 2 miles south or the Burger King across the street. And you won’t wait for an hour to get your food like at the Boston Pizza. For price-​performance, this place gets 5 stars. But I dinged it one star due to flavour on some of the items. And if anyone reads this and works there, maybe add Katsu-​Kare-​Rice to the combination menu and I’ll be eating there 3 times a week when the Family and I are up north in BC.
