About
Since opening around 2022, Toyo Sushi has quietly established itself as one of Burnaby's most authentic Japanese dining destinations. The restaurant operates as a reservation-only counter where the Japanese chef and owner personally curates each evening's selection of fresh nigiri, housemade aburi oshi, and delicate sashimi. The intimate format mirrors the tradition of small Tokyo sushiya, prioritising quality over volume. Regular guests rave about the personal attention and the remarkably high standard of fish sourcing for a neighbourhood restaurant.
