Todai Sushi in Delta

Took the family to Todai today and we were absolutely impressed with the quality of service given by Sandro. My brother whos visiting from out of town ordered the Unagi don and was commented that hes never seen its presented so nicely. Honestly wish we had take some food photos but the quality was really good and the service top notch.

They mess up orders even after clarifying several times a donburi and teriyaki entree are 2 separate things (I m surprised their own employees don t know considering it s their own menu). They still mess up the order, make customers wait double the time, don t offer an apology for the inconvenience (instead they give attitude when I ask again to make sure it s the right dish). And they still mess up. Go elsewhere. After being a repeat customer, having a single I m sorry or accountability can go along way.

Tofu teriyaki was quite tasty. Salmon teriyaki tasted good but portion was quite small. The crab miso soup was also a very small portion. Was charged extra for brown rice and it was about a 1/4 cup. They first tried to charge us extra for the miso soup which came with the teriyaki (was told by waitress). The waitress didn t know the menu that well (how all the ramen is made with pork) We also ordered a roll and never got it the person next to us ordered carpaccio and received sashimi, she was very confused, but like us had appointments and couldn t stay for longer. Atmosphere is a 1 because we felt we were very close to the people around us. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level no stair steps

Consistently great food and friendly service! Would always recommend .

The best sushi of my life. So much exquisite mouthfeels. - wife

Good food with quite an extensive menu for a small restaurant. Noisy though, because its small.

Compared with a year ago, the food quality improved so much. I ordered a sushi lunch box, the box presentation was nice, California roll is good, 4 nigiri were perfect, tempura is crunchy, surprisingly the 2 deep fried gyoza was very good!

Updated my review from a couple years ago: Our server SANDRO WAS EXCELLENT... But unfortunately with the change in management theyre no longer honoring gift cards that are from 2023. Our $30 gc was rejected. Their gift cards have no expiry date on them, just an issue date. Previously I had forgotten the gc and was reassured that they dont expire. I was discouraged from using my gc on a previous occasion because the total of my bill was half the gc. They told me to save it for a family dinner or for next time!. It was a lunch rush so they probably didnt want to write up a new one. Really disappointed that new management wouldnt honor the gc and that they preferred to lose a customer instead. I work nearby and encouraged my admin to purchase gift cards from Todai as thank yous for staff so they could support local businesses. Wont be doing that again.

The food is always amazing and the staff are great!

My card was a little weird and when i tried to pay it didnt work on the machine which was my fault. So since my house was nearby i came back in cash and THEY GAVE ME FREE MISO SOUP. Food is amazing best place to go too :]

Great place, small, cozy atmosphere. The food is delicious and friendly staff.

Overall its good in our neighborhood. Something quick and easy Was there just yesterday (Aug 4,24,,), for take out an it was not consistent, the salmon wasnt as fresh and taste kinda off, I was kinda disappointed and not able to enjoy my meal.

It is only in this restaurant where the waitresses wear odd and awful rib-knit crop tops while serving clients. We termed it decorum/etiquette; perhaps the administration would enforce a suitable dress code. I had the impression that I was at a bar or pub rather than a restaurant.

I LOVE LOVE Todai Sushi. I come every Sunday and they always know what I want. It s nice to walk into a place and feel at home. Thank you for being so welcoming.

This is probably the most underrated sushi restaurant in Vancouver. Tastes as good as or better than Miku or Minami in my opinion. My favorites are the spicy wild salmon roll and crazy girl roll. Soo good

Very warm and kind servers

Great food, wonderful ambiance, superb service!

I lab all of it

The best broth, seafood ramen soup, tastes amazing

Got food sickness from the food server was kinda rude but not that much I liked the music and the booths I would not eat here ever again tho

My favourite sushi place to go to. It s just the best!

I use to come to todai sushi a lot because it was very close to my house. I have always brought my friends and family here. April 1st around 3:30pm I encountered the rudest waitress! The restaurant was absolutely empty! We asked for the booth and just because she didn t want to clean a booth for two people she refused us saying it s only two of you and that she would have to clean a whole booth!! I m sorry, but your the restaurant is empty!! That is your job!! I also brought to her attention that I ve come there numerous times and it s always mean two customers and never in life have I had anyone say such a thing to me. She ignored me and walked away and put water onto the little corner wooden table. She was so rude and mean about it! I m was shocked. I told my cousin I feel uncomfortable and will not give my business to such a place. We then went to nordel sushi!! And let me tell you!! I guess the owners changed and it s a complete glow up in there! I m slightly very happy that I went and tried a new place which was soooo fresh and well presented, soo good!!! Now I m obsessed and can t stop going there ps. Customers are a holy grail for businesses, who should not be treated the way we were treated, it was disgusting behaviour. I will not ever be coming back. Please train your employees simple costumer service and morals. And who ever this waitress was, she got to go. It s not looking good for you restaurant.

Highly recommend to all the lower mainland people.. food is so delicious ,staff is so welcoming Place is clean and cosy . Will be my go to place for sushi.. Parking: Easy parking , free parking

Excellent food at a very reasonable price. California Rolls and Bento Box are outstanding. Food

Prices are on the higher side and quantity is less. Taste is ok though.

Food is great, but this place is INSANELY understaffed. They have 1 person working and it is not a good experience. Other customers were literally complaining as they were leaving that youre understaffed.

I love this place, its become a personal favourite for my partner and I. The sushi is amazing, and the building is small in a cozy way. My only negative is that Im not a fan of the ramen and udons broth, but everything else on the menu is very good.

We love Todai sushi for its delicious food that is superbly plated. Everyone is so friendly there even when they are rushed off their feet. I love their food! My current favorite is their seafood salad. Fresh crispy baby greens with fresh salmon, tuna, tofu and a delicious dressing is delicious. I also love their crazy rolls. Parking: Its at a Nordel Centre, a plaza and theres ample parking.

A tale of 2 visits: First visit: great service, good food. Next day, different server. Worst and rudest server Ive encountered in years. I changed my order to to go about 8 minutes into sitting down to get away from her. Will never go back. Food

Always friendly service and really good food Sweety roll is my favorite, but everything Ive tried is great!

One of the better Japanese restaurants in North Delta. My family regularly visit Todai! Sushi and sashimi is done right! Definitely recommend!

After my favorite sushi place closed down I definitely go here versus the one across the street Vday update: they were drowning in to go orders that the table service suffered greatly, they had a constant line of people waiting for Togo.

Great spot - stopped in with our kids on the way to the ferries. Food was incredible--and beautifully presented. So glad we discovered this gem!

Best sushi in North Delta no doubt...Im a sushi snob and this place always fills my needs

Best sushi in Vancouver, the food is amazing and the staff are great. The place is a bit smelly. But overall 5Stars for sure! Parking: I didn t have any problem to park during g the dinner time. It was easy to park.

We have tried this place again since our last experience and were pleasantly surprised. The portions are back to regular and quality of the food was excellent. Glad we gave them another shot!

This place is awesome awesome awesome, if it ever closed down I would literally cry. So many good meals here throughout high school and in through Uni. Theres this one particular waitress that is just the human definition of kindness. Yall gotta try their Gyozas!!

I am editing my review from 3 yrs ago for the current situation. I do not recommend this restaurant anymore. The ownership seems to have changed hands, as all the people are different. The once friendly attentive staff/owners are now cold and indifferent. Isnt one normally greeted on the way in and way out in a small sushi restaurant? The normally cozy but tidy place had boxes all over, and the sushi counter was covered in stacks of take out containers, you cant see the chef, or even sit at the counter anymore. The food was not the quality we were used to there, and when asked we pointed out the enedibly teriyaki jello ( the sauce was quite firm you could say), the server said that is just starch, you dont like it? And then she giggled and walked away when we said no. The maki were rolled poorly and fell apart, the tempura was oily and soggy, and the veggies under the teriyaki were undercooked and cold. The only things we enjoyed was the beer. Spend your sushi dollars elsewhere.

Went with my boyfriend on family day, and they were so sweet! Helped us with our damp jackets, very attentive and kind, and they genuinely had the best sushi we have had in some time. Will definitely be back. :)

Great food, the rolls are filling and always consistently good!

This is my favourite local sushi spot!! The food is great, definitely try the Tuna Bites. My favourite dish is the Dragon Roll! All staff are very pleasant, a very welcoming experience.

the place was downright lovely, one of the best dining experiences Ive had in my life!

I had salmon teriyaki the salmon still had skin on it which was slimy. When I went to pick my food up I had to wait a long time because the server forgot about me.

Of all the sushi places I ve ever eaten at, no one has been able to make better yam rolls. Todai is my favourite for yam rolls, Avocado and cucumber rolls, avocado and salmon rolls and inari! 100% love this place for all the foods! Parking: Lots of parking Kid-friendliness: Super nice to the kids and make sure they are satisfied Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level and door service

Great place. Gyoza is to die for. Fish is top quality. Wonderful service.

Honestly the sushi is not bad here but the workers are all just rude, grimey & stingy. Also, If ur indian this might not be the ideal spot for u especially if u wear air forces as they profile there customers & give there service based on that.

fire

Found a cockroach in my food. This wouldnt have been a problem if they had given me another dish but they wouldnt replace the food. Horrible management.

Good food and good service!

We didn t finish our dinner the waitress Cristal or Crysell ruin our dinner, with her comment when we were ordering she said are you ok!,I think that is to much that was supper offensive I don t recommend this place

First time ordered from them. I am a big fan of sushi and sashimi. The food was good but I was impressed with service because I wasn t expecting maybe. I will surely go back for more

Really enjoyed our meal and the service was good. Will definitely be back.

Please don t pick the order for door dash and skip 0 service

New owners have done. great job, i cant remember our servers name but she was lovely, food was fresh and tasty for a great price.

Awesome food

UPDATED REVIEW: *** This place used to be a hidden gem, but quality has dropped significantly over the years in food and service. Weve given this place half a dozen, another chance visits and have left disappointed each time. Even tried their take out and delivery options... The quality is drastically poorer compared with dine-in. Eventually we gave up. Havent been back for years. Too bad. Would give 2.5 stars if I could. ORIGINAL REVIEW: ***** This place is a hidden gem. The food is consistently excellent. Artisanal handling of all their menu items, paired with great value. The meat quality is high and very refined. Atmosphere is very quaint, but adequate. Service is always friendly. I always leave feeling fully satisfied. Highly recommended. It is my weekly indulgence.

This was the one of the best sushi i tried in my WHOLE life and the waitress answered all my questions really kindly! The price was okay. Gonna bring my sister next time

we used to get their chicken katsukush. but they got a new menu. their chicken bites are too saucy. it does need some rice to go with. Food : 4/5

Cute sushi place and even tho they recently got new management, the food and service is still great.

This is a little gem of a restaurant - small but nice ambiance and great service and the food and service was great. Price point very reasonable. I had the beef yakisoba and it was served on a hot plate. My two friends had miso soup which looked really good and rich and vegetarian rolls - mango and beet, and asparagus and yam - both beautifully plated.......highly recommend this little restaurant.

I ordered Deluxe sashimi today.. OMG.. how can I eat this.. it is so pretty!! Usually I visit this restaurant cuz it is delicious and sevice good!! :) Food : 5/5

I ve been going here for nearly a decade, every single time the food and service has been wonderful. Consistency like that is rare.

The food is awful, and the service is worse. Ordered a roll from here and they made something completely different, it did not taste good at all. I went with my son and the waitress just kept brushing us off and acting like we were just a nuisance. Dont recommend this place and definitely wont be returning.

Excellent place, delicious and well priced food. The place is a little more cramped then they deserve, but it makes for a cozy experience. Ive ordered many times before, but I decided to go for something simple. So I got some california and dynamite rolls, which were very tasty as always. I also tried some chicken yaki soba for the first time and it is my new favorite. The server is always polite and sweet, I adore the brightness she brings to every visit.

Good portion size for the price.

A beautiful place with the best sashimi Ive had in my life!

The food is good. We went two weeks in a row and we had exact the same service both time one of us was almost finished food that we ordered and still waiting for the other one. It happened the other table people next to us, too. This time was same. Almost finished the food and forgot order I brought my friend from Vancouver Island and I felt embarrassed she was excited to eat Japanese food. Good thing was her came first but mine didn t until almost finished hers. I asked them twice where was my order? The staff said sorry, we are busy that is NOT excuse not a good customer service I won t go back again even food is decent. And still asking for the tip?

The quality of food was fresh and good! And their service was attentive when I went for pick up. Also the parking was convenient Food

One of the best I have had

Very saddened by todays visit. The size of the meals and sushi rolls have shrunk significantly! The rice in bento box comprised of about 5 tablespoons! Not a gross exaggeration. The vegan mango sushi (btw it has deep fried yam that is NOT vegan, but fried in same oil as seafood etc) was sparse. One piece just had 2 small pieces of beets in it. Ive had this dish 3 times in the past and I know what the taste and appearance should be. Even the shredded beets on top was scarce. The beef bento box someone else at the table ordered had raw vegetables under the beef which is typically pan fried. Only 4 pieces of California roll, normally there is 6 to 8 pieces. The cost went up to triple or more and portions decreased to below single value. Unfortunately, we wont be returning in future. Also, the heat is never turned on. Even the sweet lady who took our order layered up in a big fleece coat even though shes moving around so imagine how patrons sitting fir over 30 minutes feel. Our total was $61 something. For this experience, it was not worth what I paid.

I absolutely love this place! I went this place with my parents last night, and it was awesome the foods were good especially rolls! I loved the service too! Definitely will visit again!

I have been a regular customer for a while but their food quality has definitely changed. I understand the inflation but I don t feel it is worth spending $22 Sushi& Sashimi bento box anymore. The package box has been getting smaller and smaller as well as the size/amount/quality of food and now I just see a lot of salad filled in the space. I am sad to experience frequent changes over the course of the year. But still, they are always friendly and still have great sushi & rolls.

Seems like this place has changed owners. I used to order from her 2-3 times per week. Their chicken Katsu used to be amazing. Last 2 times I ordered it tasted hard, and not fresh. Couldnt finish my.plate and I had a big appetite. My family had a similar experience also both times. Sadly, what used to be a neighborhood gem is now no more. I suggest you go to Minori sushi across the street where their quality is still great.

My friend took me this place, and it was awesome! Also the service was very nice

I particularly enjoy their karaage, tempura, and sushi. The staff is courteous and friendly.

I was here with my niece yesterday, and Ive been wanting to try their meal again. The ambiance is pleasant, and the personnel is courteous. Expect some waiting, but itll be worth it.

Delicious sushi and excellent customer service

One of the best sushi places in North Delta. Honestly its better than many in the lower mainland also! Great people. Husband and wife run it and they are very nice. Changed my review. Unfortunately there are new owners. I went there three times. The man is very nice, but food isnt the same quality. Also some of the staff are not so nice.

Good sushi. Good service

Tasty, fresh and reasonably priced!

Love the food. Ordered a party plater there.

I had Sushi here a couple weeks ago and got severe food poisoning. I will staying clear of this restaurant from now on.

Friendly service, decent prices and decent sushi.

Fast and delicious and very nice staff

Sushi tastes great and priced well

Excellent Japanese food and service.

Todai has become very cheap in the amount of ingredients. The chopped scallop roll is mostly cucumber. The spicy tuna had scales. Unfortunate but will not be going back, especially with better options nearby.

Ordered over the phone for takeout, I thought I heard the waitress say the wrong item over the phone so I went to confirm and she hung up. Got there and it was the wrong item, they didn t fix it and made me pay for it anyways. It was cheap but I m not very happy they couldn t have made a new roll while I patiently waited!

Have been a customer for years! Delicious fresh sushi. They always get it right. Personal favorites of mine is the house green salad, gyoza, sashimi, gomae and all of the veggie rolls! Christine and the ladies always welcome us with a smile! Consistently really great service and they even recognize our voice on the phone when we call to order in. Talk about amazing memory!

Fantastic sushi. Everything was fresh and well prepared

I had ordered some sushi before hand and when I went there they told me they have never gotten my order, it was very frustrating because I had made it there on time.

Quality has diminished significantly. Takeout rolls have shrunk in size. My cone was mostly rice with a tiny piece of fish. I wont go back.

fire

Their fish is actually quite good. Sushi rolls are really tasty and the owner is a very nice lady!

We ve been regulars here eating in or taking out at least once a week. The last time we did dine in - they gave us an extra roll when our food came to the table. We tried waving down staff so it can be corrected but the staff was so busy making sure they clear tables and get in more customers. We decided to eat and they can correct the issue when they come to the table. We ate the food we ordered and let the staff know. She came and actually took the roll away from the table. We were shocked, and really hoped the roll doesn t go to someone who orders that next. It sat at our table for almost 20 minutes with us breathing over it. I hadn t finished my miso soup and that she took away as well and dropped off a bill. It seemed like we were being rushed out so someone else can be seated. Today we just ordered take out and realized that a few extra rolls were added to our order and were were charged extra. Called in and let them know and hoped they can give us credit for the extra rolls. She had asked us to return to the restaurant with the rolls so we drove back from our house. We won t be retuning to this place now as this has happened twice and I don t feel comfortable having my rolls possibly be given to other customers and returned.

Always fresh and delicious!

I usually had lunch at this place during 2013 and 2014 and I really enjoyed their sushi: very tasty, plenty of soy sauce available and very good prices. After 8 years, I came back to Vancouver and decided to eat at this place again, and to my surprise, quality is still as good as I remembered! Avocado and salmon rolls are delicious. I find crazy that I hate 16 avocado rolls and 6 salmon rolls for 15 dollars. These prices and this quality is nowhere to be seen in Europe

Have come here for years was the best sushi until recently have gone and both times the quality has been garbage the chicken karage was raw 3 times in a row and they then argued it was fully cooked while it was clearly red/pink throughout

Imma keep it 100% honest this is the absolute best place in Delta to get sushi. Do not waste your time money or energy eating anywhere else BUT avoid eating in at all costs. ORDER TAKEOUT!! Wait staff is extremely rude, ESPECIALLY to their long time customers & generous tippers. We ve been coming here for at minimum 5 years, we tip graciously and never leave a mess but it seems as though all we get in return in rushed service, dirty looks, forgotten items and no care for comfort. They pour you a glass of water and look at you funny if you dare ask for a refill. They don t owe us anything but it s really hard for us to want to dine in these days. If you want good treatment don t tip and leave a mess those people seem to be taken care of nicely

Awesome service. Food hmm.. Takoyaki was not hot as you normally expect it to be Proper bite size sushi rolls perfect for sushi eaters who really get serious about the size lol Spicy salmon. I swear i had to double check i got the right order coz that looked like salmon salad

Always delicious and fresh. I told my daughter I brought her sushi, but not from the place close to our house. She was skeptical, but then realized it was Todai! She was so happy! I didnt get a pic because the food smelled so good, we had to dig in.

Went here again recently for the dinner box for takeout. Satisfied as always - food tasted good, great portion, priced right, great value!

Best sushi in Delta

My husband and I eat there at least once a week if not twice, we find the atmosphere very relaxing and the prices are excellent!! The food is awesome!! We highly recommend the teriyaki chicken!!

Food was great and staff are so nice! Great value too!

Fantasic suchi for a cheap price, quick and reliable if you are in the area. Not much seating inside but you are able to order ahead and pick-up inside.

The salmon sashimi was super fresh . The Dinner Bento box is an amazing deal. You get so much food . I highly recommend

Very delicious food and really friendly staff!!!!

The prices are the same as most sushi places. But portions seem to be bigger. I had the dinner sushi box. They give more tempura pieces than most and the California rolls were bit bigger than most places so prepare to go in starving come out full. Definitely a place to go to.

I guess for a sushi place in Surrey people would say its good, but not a repeat for me. Oyster motoyaki was not in the shell and there was only tiny pieces of chopped of oysters. Yakisoba, the flavour was off for me. Udon noodles were ok.

OK, but not great compared to other sushi available in the region.

Ordered skip the dishes from here tonight! Best sushi I have had in awhile! Everything was fresh and yummy. 10/10

Great food and love the ambience

Love this place ! Nice serving crew ... always nice and kind. I highly recommend this place for lunch !

Excellent and fresh

Good food but gave for stars because they never give you enough soya sauce and ginger when taking out.

Extremely disappointed with this restaurant. I had just found this place and had loved the food. Until I went back and they didnt look at a single vaccine card. Not even when I had mine ready. Will not be back.

Always good service and good sushi.

Very good, friendly staff, fast service, will go again when in the area

Best sushi place in delta. Tea is yummy and not watered down. Service is fast. Nigiri and sashimi so tasteful. No rolls disappointed us. Seating is limited inside, only downside but you can order online which is very user friendly and food is ready in 15 minutes.

Always great. Quick and always fresh.

Writing this review from another Sushi restaurant.This is the best sushi in Delta. We keep trying other places and keep realizing how good Todai is. Itll keep being our Friday date night spot as long as they keep that awesome vibe and delicious food!

Thank you! it is delicious! Neat. Karaage wasabi mayo. Thats right!

Sushi

My wife and I love this place, it is our favourite sushi and luckily right by our home. We are vegetarian, and love their mango vegetarian roll. Highly recommend trying this place!

Just moved to area, my new favorite, actually ordered twice today.it was so good

Great sushi

Stopped in just for a snack and it felt a little overpriced for what we ordered. The sashimi was cut a little thicker than some other places we ve visited but they were also shorter in length. The oyster motoyaki was also a little sweeter than most I ve had. Nothing too special here but not the worst sushi restaurant in the area. Although, a little creepy when the waitress just stands there and stares at all the tables.

Great food, Great service

Typical sushi restaurant. Nothing special or done particularly well. Has plenty of options so everyone can get something they like though.

Best Sushi in North Delta, fast service and friendly staff. Quick to fulfill takeout orders as well.

We have been to several of these and always a great experience.

Amazing sushi definitely one of my go to places!

Really like the atmosphere and the food.

Small Japanese restaurant in North Delta that offers excellent variety. Love their sushi and dinner combo vegetarian meal. The service was excellent. Worth going back to.

Best sushi ive ever had. Eat in or take out its consistent. The ingredients are important with sushi. They always have the best sashimi.

Find a worm from the food!! Avoid!

Bento combo is good

Sushi came out in 5 minutes, pretty nutty if you ask me

Friendly fast service. Quality fresh menu.

No that difference from other.

Great spot for sushi. Great service and excellent food.

Very good

Very tasty!

Great local eatery. Good value. A little small inside but perfect for takeout.

Im a regular because the service is always friendly and the food is consistently delicious

Sushi was good staff was a little quiet

Food was great and the fish tasted like it was high quality. Service was quick and friendly.

Food was bland.

Excellent food. Great staff.

The only good sushi place in delta
