THIS. This was the best Japanese food I have had that wasn’t in Japan. I can’t even believe it’s here, tucked away unassumingly in a corner street in Squamish. If you want Japan prices, and great food look no further. If I could give more than 5 I would’ve

Manpuku Sushi is truly exceptional! The food quality is outstanding, with fresh, high-grade sushi that melts in your mouth. The staff is warm, welcoming, and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. The Manpuku curry is an absolute must-try—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Every dish reflects the authenticity and skill of the chefs. If you're looking for top-notch japanese food and an unforgettable meal, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!

The hosts is very friendly and all smiling. We went there for the lunch buffet but we are too late. Instead we ordered their Bento Box. The serving is large and filling.

Incredible and authentic food. Delicious. We had two types of ramen and several sushi rolls. Everything was incredible.

Authentic Japanese sushi restaurant with amazing food for great value prices. Their location is very easily accessible. Quick service and friendly staff. The only downside is during busy hours you may not be able to get a table. However they have great takeout services to counteract that! 😊 I've tried their famous aburi saba sushi and spicy tuna and salmon poke bowl. Both are great dishes!

Everything is good, I like the ramen and the curry, reminds me of little restaurants in Hokkaido.. go here if you like the authentic taste and atmosphere. I suggest not ordering too much at first as portions are a good size. They also have small snacks available for sale and some canned drinks. Ran by local friendly Japanese staff 👌🏽

I had a spicy tuna roll and a small Udon curry and WOW the curry was freaking delicious!!! Not much meat in the small but just enough with the rich broth to fill me up. The flavours are so vibrant and comforting. Really lovely staff too! 😀

Small family style Japanese Restaurant. We love how cozy it was. The food was delicious and service was great (even though they had only had one server). Come in to the restaurant and put in your order then you'll be seated. Enjoy!

Ive been travelling around vancouver, whistler and squamish, eating out almost every meal and worrying about my travelling budget. But not here. You can get full for as low as $5 for a teriyaki beef roll or $10 for their specialty karage roll which by the way is hands down the best karage ive ever had. Suits my asian palate perfectly. A true hidden gem in the heart of downtown.

It replicates authentically the feel of a greasy, oil filled atmosphere in a neighborhood diner in Japan, just with prices that are sadly inflated due to cost of living issues. The food was about the level of what you d find in a lower end Japanese izakaya like eatery. Definitely recommend checking out other options nearby instead if you want better Japanese food

A cool hole in the wall sushi joint ran by legit Japanese people. Had their beef and chicken ramen, similar to street ramen in Japan. Chicken karaage could have been fried crispier though. The sushi rolls were okay too. I think the best thing going for this place is the price and value to taste. Only have like 3-4 dine in tables that seats various amounts per table, so probably best to order take out if you wanna do sushi.

Hands down the best sushi in the lower mainland.

December 23, 2023

Would absolutely not recommend, they had no salmon, which is weird in Squamish, they and no sashimi available, so ordered rolls and cones, cones had basically nothing but rice in them and the rolls were dry and terrible, should have hit the dumpster in the alley for something better, just tossed out $40 worth of sushi

Nice little Japanese restaurant with good selections and good prices. We ordered poke bowls, udon, ramen and sushi for lunch. Fish and ingredients of the pokes are fresh. Udon s broth is light and the beef one comes with sweet tofu skin, but the beef portions are quite small. Ramen s pretty good but the broth is a bit too salty. They also have Japanese snacks and cards for sale.

Finally, Squamish gets a high quality, authentic, Japanese restaurant (and reasonably priced, OMG). I have eaten at every Japanese restaurant in Squamish and Manpuku Sushi is by far the best. Dont let the hole-in-a-wall mom & pop decor fool you, there is excellent food (and service) that comes from this shop. Their menu offers up some unique items not commonly found in typical North American Japanese restaurants and of course they have the usual items as well. Well made, timeless, traditional dishes and not just trendy rolls that are stuffed with every hipster ingredient popular this second. Highly recommend this place but to be honest...Id rather you not go there so I can have the restaurant to myself and not wait in some ridiculous line that is so common in Squamish restaurants that are actually good...but then theyd go out of business...so alas...

Certainly a nice and friendly bunch of folks running this place but most of the food was just terrible. Either too salty or too spicy, and I love spicy. I cant think of a single one of a dozen dishes I would order again. ... sorry...

Amazingly delicious and varied. So many great options we had to order thrice in a sitting. The karaage was crispy and juicy. The sashimi was thick cut and fresh. The service was fantastic and the view unbeatable. Browsed online and seemed very different to the one in Vancouver downtown and seemed more unique. More varieties of handrolls, chirashi bowl, etc. Just fantastic!

Very small dining area but the people eat and leave quickly, and the staff is quick to clean the tables, so there is not much of a wait time for a table. The spicy ramen was great and the karage (fried chicken) was delicious. My daughter had the California roll and she said it was good.

As a long time customer of Sushi Geomon, I had missed out on visiting before they closed down. When I visited very recently, I was excited to see a menu I recognize from the previous owners. As long as they keep the pan-fry style Geoza (deep-fry is never as Goodland!) and their Beef Udon, I will only visit here for my sushi. Good work!

Manpuku is amazing! The owner, Hideya-san, is a humble master chef who creates authentic Japanese dishes such as ramen, curry and sushi.
