A hidden basement Japanese restaurant that looks outdated and quite a bit of odd smell upon entering but food was extremely satisfying to consider that the prices of the food menu is decent and affordable.

This was the most disgusting Yakisoba I have ever eaten in my entire life. The noodles were like packaged ramen, super bland, and the chicken had loads of cartilage and other chewy and crunchy bits and was slimy and fatty. I complained and told them how bad it was and they still made me pay! NEVER AGAIN!!

This is a very cozy basement restaurant with kind staff and amazing food.

Went here for dinner with some friends and it was a lovely experience. I ordered the beef udon and the udon was yummy, cooked to the perfect consistency. The broth was rich and tasty and the only thing that was less than perfect was the beef. The beef was a bit tough to chew through and in comparison to the rest of my meal, it tasted quite bland.

Our server was very friendly and she constantly checked in on my table to make sure we were okay. My food arrived in a good amount of time and I was in a group of 7.

This will definitely be a restaurant I will visit again!

Came here for dinner with friends. I liked the “hidden gem” feeling of this place which you go down to enter.

Menu selections were plentiful for dinner, and if you come for lunch they even have specials which are neat! The food was okay, sashimi seemed fresh, and not too bland, not too salty. The other options like the teriyaki took a while maybe ~15 mins. Then for some reason 2 orders Bento A took 30+ mins, which was pretty disappointing for us. If you ordered Ramen, that was the fastest thing to come out only 7-8 minutes.

Service was not the best as there were lots of misunderstandings with the waiters that night, and it seemed they “forgot” to input some of our orders— even though we came and ordered everything before they had a party of 25 people.

Have you ever had a hunger attack while shopping for clothes?

Halfway through my stroll on Robson street, I became extremely hungry and the first sign I saw was "Yan Sushi". Even though I didn't know anything about this place, I decided to go....well...climb down rather.....It's in a hole in the ground.

The place was clean, the service was good and the sushi?
I don't know how else to put this, but it was the freshest I've had in a while. We ordered again a week later for takeout and it was again just as fresh. Also, their rolls are super creative culinarily impressive and colourful.
I love the fact that it was inconspicuous and unassuming.....very different and refreshing from the current world we live in. No glitz, no glam, no pretend, no...."oh let me distract you with our million dollar decor while we serve you subpar food and charge you up the wazoo." Nope.....just good food and grateful service.

This place came along at the perfect time, as our regular sushi place started serving moldy ginger, and I draw the line at moldy anything.

YAN...you got it goin' On!
