    Food is good & price is reasonable. Service needs to be improved as they're understaffed. It's really hard to get attention from the waitresses for ordering or the bill, no free tea or water for us either. I liked the chicken karagae which goes so well with the sauce (I guess it's a mixture of condensed milk & lemon/lime juice). Sushi is okay, nothing special.

    Sushi 🍣 Well Japanese Ambience: Casual/modern/clean Parking: Street Meter Food: Excellent Service: Exceptional Costs: Good value When majority of the reviews are of the same possitivity, it only means they are consistently good and deserves to recognized! Inconsistency just doesn’t work for me. My sanity, time and money are just too valuable for businesses that constantly needs justifications, having to right the wrongs, etc. Afterall, we eat out because we want to enjoy! So why not do it right the first time? This place understands that! Service: We came 1/2 hr b4 closing. Greeted warmly by the server with warmed hand towels (usually done but rarely now in upscaled chinese banquets). I told the server that I’m not a fish person and my partner so I’m just gonna regretfully order bento box instead of the high end items. She said it’s fine and even recommended things she felt I might like. The servers and owner proactively attended to us with smiles through the entire meal. Food: I’ve seen photos of their food prior to coming but they don’t do them justice! The bentos were lavishly presented! 🤩 Everything in the boxes were so fresh and delicious! Especially the beef teriyaki was so tender that I had to ask what cut of beef. The owner told me it’s sirloin. I was expecting the skewers of shrimp to be overcooked, but it was just right and so were the tempuras. Loved croquettes which are rarely included in bentos. The sashimis my partner told me were not skimpy. We also liked that they didn’t pile on the rice to make food appear “big” instead, lots of fillings! We also loved the spicy tuna roll. I was told me that the spicy sauce is homemade. 👍🏻 Yeah, we can’t help but kept comparing all aspects to other restaurants of alike that are more expensive but lower in quality. Just because it was the end of the day, the tired servers were still diligent; the food were still fresh and tasty. The lemon slices in the water, warm hand towels add a nice touch. IMO, they don’t cost a lot but small gestures like these speaks huge about a business’s integrity and value for customers. I told Jenny that IMO why some restaurants fail soon or later but I can feel that Sushi Well isn’t gonna be one of them!

    Meticulously prepared sushi dishes that are fresh and delicious. The service staff are very upbeat and always carry a smile. Their special pink sushi rice is terrific. Sushi Well has become our favourite sushi restaurant in the South Burnaby and New Westminster area. We visited their new location which is nicely decorated and comfortable.

    Well, I finally got to the new location of Sushi Well today. It has been years since I’ve been there, so it was like a brand new experience. I rarely eat alone, but tonight was a night where I was eating alone. I walked in the door, and they actually had a nice little bar at the window that you could sit by yourself and not feel out of place eating alone. The moment I came in, they added water to a little puck that turned into a napkin. I have them at home and they’re super fun and a great thing to start with when you’re going to eat sushi like me, with my hands due to lack of chopstick finesse. 😅 The staff just made me feel very welcome and wanted. I looked at the menu and the price point was awesome. But then the food came. I could not believe how fresh the food was. Every element of the Bento box that I purchased, was well thought out and was not thrown together. Starting with the salad, I can’t tell you how many salads look like somebody threw them on the plate and splashed dressing on them with no thought whatsoever. My salad was crunchy, crisp, flavorful, and well presented with the cutest little carrot on top, and the two chef specials of the day were really adorable. One was two spring rolls I think they’re called with plum sauce, and the other one was a prawn skewer. The sauce on the skewer was perfect. It brought out the flavour of the prawn. I had not had pink sushi before (unless I did the last time I was at the restaurant,) but I do not remember that. I spoke with the lady and she explained to me that it was made out of beets and I believe she said carrots. They had to get a special license for it. It’s very healthy and it just had a different flavour to it. so it was like eating dynamite rolls, but next level. I moved onto the chicken teriyaki, and the alfalfa sprouts were just so crisp and crunchy. There was also a really flavourful sauce. I’m guessing that they make the teriyaki sauce themselves or else it’s high end and not Kraft lol. No matter what, it’s amazing. I really enjoyed the tempura. The batter was delectable. And even though I ate far too much because it was so good, I still came home with enough to have lunch tomorrow. Definitely glad I went and I will be back for sure.

    This is a great little spot with funky pink rice! Yes the Rice is pink, moist and delicious! I had the Surrey street veggie roll, edamame beans, veggie gyoza, and miso soup! It was really good! My non veggie buddy had Crazy Boy roll, and he reported that it was also really good. The tea was hot! The miso was also fresh, tasty, and robust ( I dislike watery miso, but this was substantial). The servers were really fun, borderline entertaining. Overall, try this place out! It’s fandabulos! 😂❤️🍣🍣🍱

    Okonoki special roll was excellent. Monkey brains was good too. Both had similar flavor profile though so just one of the two would be ok. Decent sushi. Good service. Was very clean and the place looked nice.

    Sushi Well is definitely on my go-to list now! The sushi is a masterpiece of flavor, with a menu that caters to both traditional and adventurous tastes. What sets this place apart is the exceptional service (especially from the delightful Jenny). Her friendliness and happiness is so contagious!! And the insightful recommendations added a special touch to an already outstanding dining experience for us. The restaurant's ambiance is perfect, striking a balance between sophistication and comfort. Sushi Well has secured its spot as my go-to sushi spot, and I can't wait to return for more delightful meals. Kudos to the Manager Jenny, servers and chefs for a truly five-star experience!!

    Sushi to start, then noodle soup, both of them they served very fast. At the end the chicken appetizer was delayed because the restaurant got busy, a lot of people. It means people know this restaurant it's good so they got busy. It's a good signal. I enjoyed a really good meal. I'm not good with the name of the dishes, but you have to know that most of them are delicious.

    The best sushi in New West is back! We frequented the other location before the building was torn down. This new location is a little smaller, but the food is better than ever! We went at peak hours on a Friday night, and we were seated quickly. Absolutely delicious sushi rolls and the appetizer spicy chicken karaage was so good!

    Great sushi, nice service. The pink sushi rice is no different than other sushi in flavour, so no worries on that. Very fresh and fulfilling. The Maple Roll is very good, definitely hoping to try new options again.

    Sushi Well always exceeds our expectations with its exceptional sushi and service! The food is always presented so beautifully and fresh. All the staff are super attentive and friendly. It was so nice to chat with the servers, Jenny and Sarah, who are the most warm and lovely people ever! We're so glad Sushi Well is open again after the renovations but it was truly worth the wait. They continues to impress us with their delectable cuisine and unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction! My favourite is the Salmon Toro Nigiri Sushi and Bento Box C 😎👍
