Customer Reviews
One of my favorite places I’ve tried on my trips to Vancouver! The portions were generous and our mains tasted authentic. The beef tongue on the hot stone was a fun and interesting experience. My partner and I enjoyed sharing our dishes, and I’d come here frequently if I lived closer. Note: Came during the three-day weekend during rush hour, so it did take them a few minutes to acknowledge us and seat us.
We came here as a group of 4 scared because we didn’t have a reservation ahead of time but they were able to seat us in around 20 minutes! The food is absolutely divine and the server was kind and attentive, giving us great recommendations as well. We definitely over ordered but the wagyu and the sushi bowls we got are a must, and I personally loved the uni pasta!! I wish I could go back in time and experience this for the first time again!
My 13 year old son's one goal was to have sushi while we were staying in Vancouver and after some research we decided on Kingyo and I'm glad we did. This was our favorite meal while we were in Vancouver and to be honest one of the most fun dining experience we have ever had. We got there right at noon and were fortunate enough to snag a coveted bento box as well as some other great dishes included the Kobe beef cooked on a sizzling stone. If we ever get back to Vancouver, lunch at Kingyo will be a must
It's a great place! Fish is as fresh as it can be. We were a party of 12. All ate excellent! Service was extraordinary also. We will definitely be back next time in Vancouver
