J	Jul K on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing! Just amazing! Now, I love love love sushi. I haven't been to Japan, but I've eaten sushi everywhere I go. I eat it often. Now I realize, that I'm not sure what I was eating before, because this place raised the bar so high. The chef is Japanese, and what he does with the ingredients and textures and flavours is incredible. I felt moved by his food and was compelled to go and tell him so. This is an izakaya, a bar with food/small plates. Keep in mind, they don't do take out, it's all about the sitdown experience, freshly made food, drinks, atmosphere. One reviewer here left them a bad review for not making him cucumber rolls for takeout, but he should really have looked at the name of the place, the menu, etc. He wouldn't go to a fish & chip service demanding white linen sit down service, or ask a french sitdown restaurant for an order of fries to go.
C	Chad Nehring on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This was probably the nicest sushi restaurant we’ve ever been to. Totally upscale, rustic looking building, and incredible food and staff. Bella was our server, and she was so kind. We would 1000% dine here again when in Victoria.
R	Randy Lau on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really liked this restaurant, it's pretty popular so definitely make a reservation. The menu is pretty expansive so everyone should be able to find something they like. The unagi don,, chirashi, and karage done bowls are really good and are just right for one person.
e	eliana nielsen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely delicious, which is stunning considering the massive menu! I love the gozen boxes, so fantastic to have that little variety plate. I will say - the tantanmen had me fighting for my life with the heat, so I’d recommend caution there. The sushi is always terrific.
J	Jonathan Lee on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the better places we had dinner while at Victoria. Prices were slightly higher than your usual Japanese place in Vancouver but the service and food quality reflected the prices. We ordered the dynamite roll, California maki, and spicy tuna roll. All were excellent. We also ordered the Yakisoba which I personally found a tad salty but the wife loved it. Recommend you call ahead and make a reservation as we tried to call and they said they were full and only took walk ins. And we got lucky when we got there. There’s also plenty of parking around the restaurant. It’s kid friendly where the provide either a booster seat or a normal kids chair.
H	Hoan-Vu La on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The food is great. Super tasty and the portions generous. The price is very fair for the quality of the food. I liked it enough that I came back the next day for lunch because I wanted to try other items they have on their menu. The presentation is really nice. The soup was fantastic, the fish and salads are also very good. If you like Japanse food and are in Victoria, I definitely recommend you try this place out. We were served by 2 sister and they were so sweet. Made our experience that much more enjoyable.
J	Jeff Seto on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Decent place with a wide variety of Asian fare - Korean, Chinese and Japanese. The service was great and the food tasty. Brown sushi rice is a trendy but tasty touch. Good place for beers and eats.
J	Juston Tran on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gozen has a massive menu that stretches across a wide spectrum of Japanese cuisine! Overall an excellent place to dine. Personal I would order the rolls. With so many to choose from, it would have to take a couple of visits to try them all. Their prices are fair, averaging around 8-17 dollars, the fancier the rolls the pricier it gets. I would highly recommend the rolls with mango! It’s also Vegetarian. Surreal atmosphere and friendly service makes for a great time, I will definitely be coming back!
