My family and I always enjoy the delicious food at Lakeside Sushi. The attention we receive is very appreciated and we always leave very satisfied. Thank you very much for many yummy meals!
Quite good, especially for a little hole in the wall place in a small town. Staff were friendly and the tuna was delicious!! Would recommend if you’re looking for a place to stop for dinner after a day on the lake.
Good food. The lunch boxes were a good deal. The tempura was tasty. Excellent choices on the menu but unfortunately that day they didn't have enough salmon. Good service too. I'd be back.
I highly recommend the monkey brains and sushi tower. The fish was fresh. The miso soup was okay, sadly no seaweed. Service was good.
Simply delicious. Our sushi was fresh, the wasabi was my kind of hot and flavorful. I was quite surprised by the price and service. Great prices and service! Thank you. We will have to visit Lake Cowichan and Lakeside Sushi more often.
Unfortunately food was not great. Fish was not fresh. Miso was too salty. I wish we could enjoy the place.
I love sushi, and you could imagine my pure joy when I found this place to have some of the best sushi I've had. It's a hidden gem and they give you extra here and there too ;)
Competent sushi, at tourist-only prices. Lakeside Sushi is a place where you can get tasty sushi that tastes fresh. Right away, I'll let ya know that you don't have to worry about this sushi being terrible; because it will be totally acceptable. The service was good, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. I think they could spend a bit more time making the restaurant feel more welcoming (the tables and chairs are pretty basic) but that doesn't matter to most people. The miso soup was really tasty, and is my favourite miso on the island. The rolls I tried were well made, but contained fake crab (which, oddly, wasn't listed on the menu) so I had to pick it out. The sashimi was bizarre. I ordered 8 pieces, but received 10 thin strips of fish. I have a feeling that they are pre-cut for nigiri, and simply dolled out as sashimi. I'm not a big fan of this technique, as sashimi should not be served in thin strips; and considering the price/size, this might be the most expensive sashimi on the island. I've had less expensive sashimi in New York (which is saying something) This restaurant is clearly aimed at tourists who don't mind paying inflated prices. Considering the lack of combo deals for supper, and the 30% inflated price tag for most items; this place seems to price locals out from eating here (which would explain the emptiness of the restaurant). The food was good, save for the sashimi; but I won't be coming back due to the high tourist tax.
