Kiriri Japanese Cuisine & Sushi Bar

I decided to splurge and ordered the Chef's 9-piece Nigiri Special ($36), which included premium fish from Japan and the West Coast. The selection featured Aji, Kanpachi, Sake King Salmon, Maguro Red Tuna, Ikura, Tako, Kimme, Madai, and most importantly, Uni from Hokkaido. At $10 a piece for Uni alone, I felt this set was a great value. Each piece was fresh, delicate, and perfectly prepared in terms of temperature and consistency. This meal was the closest I've come to the sushi I enjoyed in Japan since my trip there last November.

This is place is a non descript little hole in the wall restaurant in a small strip mall. Don't let this dissuade you from checking this place out, we did this past June.The sashimi is one of the freshest that I have had in the lower mainland outside of Japan.They offer sashimi that some other places likely won't have available and prices will reflect that.We had assorted sashimi, a coupe of rolls, chicken karrage, assorted tempura and the chicken teriyaki. Sashimi was a standout as well as the tempura. Batter was light and wasn't greasy.Food 4.5Service 4.0Ambiance 3.0PriceyWould come back if in the neighbourhood and was craving some super fresh sashimi like we have had in Japan.

The interior of this restaurant is nicely decorated, but it is on the smaller side so reservations are recommended. I thought it was neat that the server showed us the daily specials on an iPad. The food was served promptly. We tried the special tamago with unagi, which had a different flavor than expected but was still enjoyable. We also ordered beef tongue, chirashi don, and assorted nigiri. The beef tongue was cooked at the table on a hot stone plate and paired well with a white radish puree with salt. The chirashi don was beautifully presented with pickled vegetables and miso soup, although the pickled veggies were a bit bland. The variety of fish in the chirashi don was fresh and tasty, with the ika and chopped scallop being particularly delicious. Overall, the food presentation is above average for a sushi restaurant, with fresh fish and tasty dishes. Prices are on the higher side for some items, but the quality justifies it. The service is welcoming and efficient, with an open view of the sushi chefs at work. It's definitely worth a try, and I wouldn't hesitate to return if I were in the area. Lastly, the unique tea selection was a pleasant surprise and added to the overall enjoyable dining experience.

Very classic and traditional Japanese cuisine. Strongly recommended who truly loves Japanese food in Japanese style. The food is so fine, and always make me feel touchy and happy afterward. I truly understand the meaning of the chief's love and effort in the dish, such exaggeration only exist in manga or TV drama. I cannot express how much I love to dine here. It is truly my No1 restaurant in my heart.

Good sushi/ sashimi place. Prompt service. Expect a long wait at peak hours. Chinese establishment. Generally ok surroundings but the decor is getting worn by inconsiderate customer.<br/ <br/ All the fish we ordered were good quality though smaller sized. The ikura was notably thin. Uni was brightly coloured and shiny.<br/ <br/ They do have daily special fish, some from Japan, which sounds quite interesting, but were sold out by the time (7:45 pm) we ordered. Suggest reserving a table at an earlier time for best selection.<br/ <br/
