[hamsup]

good stuff sensei ducky ! lol !!! i was so confused what was going on that night !!!! haha

[!Tigger]

i wanna go again... foods always awesome

[Ch28]

Took my gf there tonight for our 3 year anniversary. Food was great just like last time. My gf hates yams and she loved the thunder fries. The tiger mayo was delicious and the dozen oyster special was yummy. We tried the Taco Rice and it was pretty good.

Will be back there next Saturday for a friend's bday. ;) :p hahaha

[S17]

VIP cards are in now Deon? If so i'll be there next weekend haha.

[Ch28]

Thanks for the great service and the bday cake tonight Deon. Sorry about everybody showing up late but I was on time! :p

[wouwou]

Can't Stop Going..

Now I am thinking, if the food there actually has crack in them because they are so ADDICTIVE lol

Oh God please keep the standard of your food. I've been to too many good restaurants that got lazy once they are established

[ineedNOS]

went there yesterday, took a bunch of out of towners and we all enjoyed the atmosphere and the drinks! ...thanks!

[TreyDoja]

Deon: Just a suggestion, but it gets pretty packed and orders tend to pile up, I know our table's did, and wrong orders go to wrong tables and/or wrong things get charged, etc. I would suggest that after every table orders, you print out an order form of what the table has ordered and have the waitress mark it off as it comes to the table (match what was ordered with what has already come, etc.)

I know a lot of Chinese Restaurants do this and it eases confusion and mistakes. The table orders and they receive an order form. When the food comes, it gets checked off of the list accordingly.

[Ch28]

^ That's actually a pretty good suggestion. We had a few mix ups with our orders last weekend for my friend's bday but we know it can get a bit hectic with big parties so we didn't think too much about it.

[Ducky]

Trey always with all the good ideas.
Yesterday our group did cod on the drinks it was flawless took abit extra timewise but it worked out.

:rofl:

lolllll

[enrai]

Went there the past 2 nights for a friend's b-day. Good place to hang out, lots of eyecandies ;)
Is it normal that Friday night's busier than Saturday?

[wahyinghung]

Just been there tonight for my B-day the resturant environment is very nice, I can't belief it used to be Hooters. As for the food the best Jap food In Van so far. Way better than Dozo which we went the night before. Definetly will come back kinda savoring some Taco rice now ......

[Ch28]

^ Their taco rice is good!

Reminds me of the spanish rice my gf and I make at home :D

[willystyle]

Went there again yesterday.. table service was kind of slow... we had to ask several times before we can get our water filled.. i find the portion size for some dishes has shrunk like the chicken karrage.. i remember it being bigger.. other then that.. it was good..

[chynado11]

what time are u guys open till on wednesday nights?

[Obsideon]

Weekdays we're usually open to about 11ish-12. I kind of adjust depending on the flow of business. I won't stay up 'til 12:30am when there's no customers, but I'll stay will whenever if we're full house!

~ D

[kurayami]

Props to D, food there was awesome! Went two weeks ago for a b-day party and again on monday... keep up the good work.

[eternal_angel]

I can't remember what I ordered, but there was a group of 15 of us (apparently it was like some singles party or something) but if the fish was fresh. Wasn't too big on the Oyster Motoyaki, but the raw stuff rocks, assuming you don't chug it down.

i think that's a major understatement

[sil-300]

was just at the resturant today. All in all, it was a fairly good experience although i was pretty disappointed with the crab tartar, spicy tuna, sashimi salad and the taco rice. For what you're paying i figured the taco rice would have been at least a bit bigger. I loved the agadeshi tofu with spicy calamari topping, thunder fries, and teh cheesecake creme brule was great. I also had the beef sashami which was decent (cause i like it slightly cold, and ours was warm), ocean red which i liked, and pork gyozas which came out pipin hot :)

good job on the restaurant overall!

[JSilver]

The music bumps at the restaurant. Awesome!

[Ronin]

The creme brule cheesecake is groin-grabbingly good.

[6793026]

i went early just because I don't have a reservation. i went when the sun was still up so i wasn't able to watch the projector's hockey game, and because i was early, i didn't get all the pretty receptionist to greet me yet.

i tried to sangria which was great, i tried the yam fries, which was awesome because it was different (as in shape) and the sauce was spicy yet compliemented each other. The samurai roll (with eel on top) was good, meh.. nothign too special, colorful i gotta say. The sasahmi (beef and the seafood) were both above par.

i am no chef, but what i did see was a lot of japanese white sweet paste which is the typical sauce people eat in sushi. I see it being used in a lot of yoru dishes. I just want to make a suggestion and see if you can expand and come up with some special sauce. i know this is easier said than done but what Ebisu is lacking is the wow factor in taste. The decor was decent, the color and presentation are just above par (many dishes were just decorated with tomato and free pepper for color) but the taste and shocking value weren't there to WOW someone.

It's hard work to make a good dish at a restaurant eg// catcus / milostone, but its the special sauce, marinates and ingrediences that makes a great dish and a memoriable restaurant. eg//baccus, quattro..etc...

let's make a comparision. Guu, all jap wording, minimal english. sometimes, you really need to know what you are ordering. Chopstick cafe, english menu but lack pictures. you guys have the best of both worlds. i really appreciate the colorful menu and the variety of items with pictures however, the draw back is the high expectations that's setup by seeing the pictures. the sangria was by far the funniest. pic shows tons of fruits and strawberries and pears, but when we got it it was like OH.

overall, i had a good experience. i gotta say the alcohol menu was crazzzyyyyy.

[Obsideon]

Mr. bunch-of-#'s: :D Hehe I really appreciate your thorough feedback and comments! Very useful and informative!

Yeah now that the the sun stays up a lot longer we're having problems with the projection screen being not bright or sharp enough with all our huge windows wrapping the restaurant. I'm thinking to tint the windows or get some curtains in the near future, not sure yet.

Your not the first to comment on the sauce. It's so hard to please everybody, first somebody told me that we use the same sauce for Ebi Mayo, Thunder Fries and Chicken Karaage, our house Chili Cajun mayo, it's a great sauce but it gets repetitive.

So we changed the dip for the Chicken Karaage to a BBQ Garlic sauuce, a week later another buddy of mine says "Aw you changed the dip for the Chicken Karaage? The old one was so good!" ... We are now working on tweaking a few new sauces for the other dishes and see what we can come up with! As you mentioned it's easier said than done but we'll keep trying! We're always trying to improve our dishes.

Oh and the note on the Sangria, lol sorry 'bout that I'm sure it wasn't intentional. It IS suppose to look like the picture, or as similar to it as possible. The bartender probably got busy or lazy. Either way I'm gonna remind her about it to ensure it doesn't happen again!

Thanks again and I hope we improve in time for your next visit!

~ Deon

PS. You should look for me next time I like meeting new people!

[granville]

imma check dat out with my buddys this week haha better be good

[6793026]

AznSiR:
I also had the oysters, they were great, but it was really the pictures that got me into it. I tell you the pictures in your menu does wonders.

Ebi mayo sauce being used as a base for the thunder fries was perfect. what I meant was, my samurai roll, seafood sashimi and I thnik even the beef sashimi salad had the white sauce on it which was just way over doing it, even if it was being used for decorative sense.

i went there super early. there was only like 3 tables.
I really have no idea who you look like or even if you were there so it would be super awkard and say "oh hey... i'm 6793026...
are u the owner...."

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Deon: The Spicy Mayo is great! but it gets pretty repetitive, sorta like all the fried dishes kind of have the same taste in a way. But it's not like the spicy mayo isn't good it's just sometimes change is good =D

[SuperStarrr]

shit i still havent gone yet...
i feel so...out of the loop
all my buddies tell me to go cause its cheap beer and great food

[Obsideon]

LOL That would be hilarious if you say your entire name full of numbers. My waitresses would be like "uh... weirdo" ... haha :rofl:

but no, really you can just ask any of the people working there "Is Deon here?" and they will gladly go grab me or tell you I'm not here. :)

What would be weird is if I went to every table asking "Hi how's the food? Are you six, seven, nine, three .. uh.. and some other numbers?"

I'll mention the white dressing part to my chefs, thanks for the heads up!

[Derek_N84]

went there again last night for a quick meal. deon even came to give me the bill himself ! woot ! lol ...

im definitely putting that vip card to good use lately ...

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Went there today at like 6:15ish, first time that I didn't see Deon haha....Ordered lot's of stuff and tried the Creme Brule Cheesecake and it was pretty good =) especially the top part :D So crispy and good!! The Chicken Karrage was a little too crispy and hard to bite >< but overall it was really good ^^ Also my mom tried Hapa 2weeks ago; Guu week ago and she said Ebisu taste's better and the presentation was also better than either of them haha

Thx again Deon :D

[willystyle]

deon's never there on sunday's man.. what the hell? haha

[jACEDesignsLtd]

i'll be there tomorrow. Gf's friend's bday party

[sh0n]

I'm heading down to EBISU tonight for some eats and to catch the game.

Deon's where's my superbelated VIP card hahahah (I was out of town from the start of the EBISU until now)

[hamsup]

why was i there again !! lol !

[SlySi]

I must be the only one... Ebisu food is really not that great..

[hamsup]

i didn't eat dinner there !

[Obsideon]

Well I guess it's hard to satisfy everyone, some people have some really special preference to taste and other flavours.

SlySi: Is there anything specific that you could point out that I could improve or you would like to see different? What did you order? Your comment was pretty vague and generic :\ Any feedback would be appreciated!

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Deon: How does the VIP thing work? is it 10% + Free Appet each time?

Because I don't think I got a free app =S Maybe I did but I dunno haha =/

ghetto.

[sh0n]

I was there for Nucks Game 3.

First timer. Didn't get a chance to see Deon. I was the guy wearing the Vintage Luongo jersey sitting at the bar by the 2 LCD's.

I think I saw a few other fellow RS'ers (Have seen their pictures on RS) throughout the game.

Had quite the few dishes some hits and some misses.

Hits:
Unachee: Loved the texture and flavours. Cream cheese inside was great!
Agadeshi Tofu: GF absolutely loved it, she gobbled it up rather quickly.
Thunder Fries: Spicy mayo was tasty. Great appy with pint of beer or a drink.


Misses (Guess these need work on)
Fish cake appy: Small in portion, only 3 of them? Taste was alright. I guess just the portion could have been bigger. The picture in the menu lied to us hahaha
Yakisoba: The beef was rather tough. It had some parts of the hard tendon and sinew. The noodle itself was cooked right. But the whole dish was salty and sour. I'm not sure if i remembered yakisoba to be like this. I remembered it was suppose to be more sweet tasty (kinda like a teriyaki stir fry noodle dish)

Hope you can use these suggestion Deon.

Overall, the atompshere, food and drinks are great.

I would come back for sure!

Although I was only there once. That was about 2 months ago.
We had a decent size order.
I wish I could recall what I ate and what I disliked about the food. But it was just too long ago.
Sorry about the vague reply. I know there are allot of people here who like it. But... I just wasnt as happy as all the people here.
I should entertain the idea and try again.

Kingyo is simply the best Izakaya restaurant in DT right now..
just my opinion...

Will give Ebisu another try....

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

oh oh we got a negative one


where is kingyo??

[willystyle]

Hey dude, I was the big guy sitting next to you.. haha.. glad u liked the food there..

I won't. The service was absolute shit. I figured just in case, I'll make a reservation (habit of mine), I get there and magically my reservation has disappeared, no record or anything. So they manage to find my girlfriend and I a table, fine.... But then it takes a girl 20 minutes to get me a beer.... 20 minutes! Not only that, but afterwards it took them another 30 minutes to get us an appetizer.... A couple beside us ordered the same one (after we did, mind you) and got it in less than half the time, go figure. I forget what the appetizer was, but it kicked ass.... Had our meal, the food was decent (not worth the price IMO).... But the service was horribly inconsistent... There was no specific waiter/tress attending to us and it took forever to get a hold of someone, and then took even more time to get what we wanted. I could understand if it was busy, but it wasn't at all, so there's no excuse for the piss poor service. A really bad first impression if you ask me....

[Obsideon]

The Hype: I apologize on behalf of my staff for what happened to you that night. I really don't know what could have been wrong that night, but it's hard for me to pinpoint anything when you never stated what day, time, and what food. I've only ever experienced problems like that when we are totally slammed on a weekend or it was very early like when we first open at 5 because we were understaffed for a short while. Both problems have been noted and rectified a whle ago. About the drinks, I had a really, really bad bartender for about half a week and I fired her, maybe it was that off-day. Nobody's perfect :(
About the reservation, wow I'm really just as clueless as you. Maybe the cashier wrote it down on the wrong date. Sorry again.

Thanks for the compliment on the appy, whatever it was. If you could recall anything that would be appreciated. All these vague comments. :confused:

[Obsideon]

Furthermore I sincerely hope you would give us another shot. Even ask for me and I'd be delighted to meet you and make sure your next experience will be much, much better than your first visit! I'm always looking to improve & learn from my mistakes and if something didn't satisfy you then I would gladly change it to try and meet or even exceed your expectations.

Regards,
~ Deon

Thanks for the 'Hits' ! :D

The misses have been noted;
Fish cake appy, I assume that's the Chikuwa Cheese. Has been increased in portion.
Yakisoba, has been changed, hopefully for the better!

Kingyo is on Denman, new place opened a few months before us, it's pretty good, some dishes are good, some are 'ok'.
I personally think Guu is better than Kingyo. I have a waitress that works at my place and Kingyo too.

[hamsup]

deon.. when did you go to kingyo ??? omg.. i really wanna try it out ! did you go with damon ?

Hey there. I don't wanna be one to rain on the parade too, but I agree the service is one of the worst I've ever encountered anywhere. The food is what makes me even think about returning, but then I remember how snobby/airheaded the waitresses are. I don't remember if they wear nametags or not, but next time maybe I could get you a few names :P

I know its a busy and popular place now, and delay is to be expected. but I think inconsistency and 1 hour wait for food is a bit overboard, isn't it? :)

[Obsideon]

TigerSY: Thank you for your feedback. I make sure all servers are always wearing their name tags so please feel free to tell me who they were, it's important to you, me and everyone else that we fix this problem :) Don't need any bad eggs ruining the entire farm!

It's really quite difficult for me to run around the entire restaurant listening to all the waitresses conversations with customers. Unfortunately GOOD help is actually pretty hard to find. Since we are fairly new the best I can do is hire a bunch of people and weed out the bad ones if they don't show any improvement.

Unlike Guu/Kingyo, they just transfer all their old waitresses over from the previous restaurants so most if not all of them are already experienced. When we opened most of the servers were new people and trained from practically scratch.

Also I'm just curious that these comments are based on just 1 visit or was it always bad for the 2-3 times?
Even legendary Tojo's, ultra-popular Hapa, sleek Shiru-bay get their feathers ruffled every once in a while. Infact if you read reviews around the net some of those places get REALLY bad reviews, and quite often. Yet they are still raved about because it's actually good, most of the time.

I hope I can improve on the bad service that you recieved and cut the 'bad days' to a minimum (impossible to be perfect), at least you have a chance to voice your opinion to me directly and things can be done about it. :)

[What_the?]

On a positive note, some of my female friends wanted me to let you know that you have cute guy servers. I think you have cute girl servers, so it works for both sides :)

[Obsideon]

What?! Just the servers?! :bluemad:


Haha jk :p

[hamsup]

haha yes.. just the servers.. puahahaha !!! OWNAGE !

[gars]

i was there a good few weeks ago. i saw your promo on here, so i decided to check it out.

man, the taco rice is friggin amazing. the waitress recommended it, and man, i loved it. probably one of those gwai lo pleasers, but i loved it...

wanted to come last week, but it was packed (i hate trying to find a place to eat at 8 on robson).

definitely heading back!

[mako]

haven't been back in a while ...

I wonder if Deon still has my VIP card lying around

[funguy]

hamsup, we are still suppose to go there drinking one night. pick a night. i suggest june 2nd.

[Shun Izaki]

A+

went there for a buddy's bday thing, had a beer or two... or something...

Didn't get anything to eat, but it all looked great, wasn't all that expensive, and AznSiR came by himself to greet us.

Would definately return.

[XTC_604_DKNY]

oh god...i've been going back every week to drink :S
sorry about my friend puking all over on saturday, gave him a bit too much to drink for his bday, over where the window/patio was.

I think most to all the mods can agree that our server Kim back at the mod awards dinner was uber cute.

I have yet to see a cute waiter though...hmm....:P

[funguy]

had a good time last night. lots to drink. very nice place indeed. hahaha.

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Damn, I dropped by at 4pm and forgot when it was opened, they said 5 :(

You really need to be open all around =) or at-least 4pm+

Starting this FRIDAY, JUNE 8th we will be opening for Lunch!
Which means we will be open ALL DAY from 11:30am on!

Took you guys long enough :p Will there be a separate lunch menu or will the menu remain the same?

I'll drop by for my bday dinner in about 2 weeks :)

[Obsideon]

Haha well I wanted to make sure Dinner was going smooth before I attempt to sacrifice the other half of my day!

The menu is entirely different, it's catered more to the business rush crowd which don't have time to peruse through our entire dinner menu. It mainly consists of Bento boxes, Seafood Tairyo Boats and sushi roll platters so they can quickly pick a combo which would have a bit of everything and whatever they were craving (ie. Chicken, Prawns, vegetarian, etc etc.)

BUT we'll also offer seperate Tapas (although not as extensive as the dinner menu) for people who still want to pick and choose whatever they want.

[chic604]

PMed ya about something Deon.

[TreyDoja]

i HEART you Deon..


Great times at Ebisu, like always

[Ducky]

I have been MIA for a few weeks now sorry Deon, I still love you though.

[ellzar]

hit up ebisu last night. everything went well, but the projection screen was a bit dim for the ducks/sens game. luckily i was on a first date so i shouldn't have been watching it anyway. Everything else was fine/good. Definetely will go back again.

[Jassanova]

Hey Deon,

It's Jassie from Hamber (if you remember!). I took my sisters to your restaurant as we were downtown for lunch today and I had heard great things about the restaurant already.

2 of us had the Tiger Prawn meal, and one had Noodle Box A.

We really enjoyed the meals (esp. the Tiger Prawn in the Garlic Butter sauce.. the flavour was exceptional!), and the service was really good, the staff was really friendly to us and the drink selection was awesome.

Only hiccup was, the Noodle Box A, which my sister thought came with Chicken in the Udon soup, but there was no chicken in the meal? Not sure if she just read it wrong, or if something was messed up when she asked for Veg. Tempura instead of the Prawn tempura.

For the price, downtown near Robson, I think it was very reasonable (under 40 for the 3 of us, with 1 Lychee slush drink ordered)... and I'm definitely coming back again!

The only other suggestion my sisters had, was that during lunch time (especially with it being quieter) for the music to be different. I didn't mind it, but they aren't fans of the rap :P.

[hamsup]

hey jass... glad you enjoyed yourself... we shoudl go back as a group in week or so.. i haven;t seen ya in ages..

ducky.. EVERYONE LOVES YOU ! lol =) good seeing ya !

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Thanks again Deon. Went today with my friend. Food was good as usual but too bad I couldn't order liquor haha It was so tempting seeing everyone drinking especially with the cheap prices.. LOL

Just a thought but the Chicken Karaage seemed a bit dry this time around. Also you seemed to be quite busy with some of the waitreses bro ;) haha

[Ducky]

aww thanks, everyone loves you move though. lol

[Obsideon]

LOL yeah I hired a bunch of new girls since we opened Lunch and I had to train'em all, sorry didn't have time to talk to you!

I'll check on the chicken for ya!

[Alphamale]

Hmm, I went here with my gf the other day cuz I heard all the good stuff about it. I'm not a drinker and nor it my gf, so needless to say I don't have any comments about your drink menu, although it did look very exhaustive (good thing!). However, the food wasn't as spectacular as everyone said. The tastes weren't anything special the sashimi was okay. I started off with the agedashi tofu w/ the calamari...that was fucking awsome. I expected the rest of the dishes to be as kick ass...but nah, they were just regular tasting, sometimes a bit too much of the saucy stuff.

For the price I paid...it's somewhat expensive but considering it was downtown, it's okay but the quality and tastiness of the food should have been up there. I probably won't come back just becuase I don't think the taste justifies the cost but you do have some things on your menu that people may want to try out, since no one else offers it.

[!SG]

thanx again deon for fitting me in last weekend =)

[hamsup]

yah.. the agadashi tofu with calamari really is delicious !!! =)

[Obsideon]

Thanks for your feedback!

Yeah a lot of people like the Calamari Tofu, if you could recall even some of the other dishes that you ate I could work to improve on them, but sometimes its hard to satisfy every single individuals preferences and tastes.

I guess you don't eat out much in Downtown. I firmly believe our prices are very competitive say compared to Hapa and Shirubay, quantity and quality. Our drinks prices are comparable to that little hole-in-the-wall Greek Taverna close to Denman ($9.99 pitchers), but we provide a great, spacious ambiance for you to enjoy it in along with good food, the rent ain't cheap! :p Every dish cant be 'awesome' as it's impossible to achieve perfection, every restaurant will have their hiccups, positives and negatives.

~ D

[Alphamale]

Oh yeah, that's for sure, and im not saying your resturant is bad or anything, I want people to go and try it out, I just think maybe my standards were too high when I gathered all the feed back from this forum. I guess I expected to taste some godly food..lol. Everyone's palate is different so don't worry too much about mine :P As long as there are (a large number of) people who do enjoy your food.

Made reservations for my bday dinner this Friday.

Time to try the agadashi tofu with calamari and more thunder fries + oysters :D

I guess I expected to taste some godly food..lol. Everyone's palate is different so don't worry too much about mine :P As long as there are (a large number of) people who do enjoy your food.

This thread is just a giant ebisu circle jerk, a few people I know (from clubRSX) went and foudn the liqour nice and cheap but the food to be kinda mediocre.

Personally it's not my kinda cuisine.

I've also heard the atmosphere is pretty good.

[hamsup]

haha RBSX !!! thanks for your three cents =P lol !! I'll go with you and johnny sometime ! lol !

I heart you too buddy.

Ambrose said the good was kinda meh, John said the atmosphere was good, the booze was cheep but the food was meh.

Personally I'm reserving judgement until I go, and probably even then because it's not my niche.

[hamsup]

Yah i guess... well you know my number when you wanna head down on a weekend ... for a few drinks and some food =P

[RbSX]

I don't have ur number budday!

[miss_crayon]

deon, went with 2 of my girls on wednesday night. wanted to introduce myself as a rs member but i didn't

i use to go with the boyfriend a lot too but never got a chance to say hello.

anyways, good job on the restaurant so far. it was my friends first time going there and they loved it!

[arsenic]

Some of the food is just mediocre, but some of the items I love getting are the Tuna Tacos (wicked deal, especially compared to places like Joey's offering pretty much the same thing for a higher price and less tasty), thunder fries (great mayo, and good to keep for dipping other food items in lol), and calamari tofu is a must (I don't even like tofu!).

[jACEDesignsLtd]

someone on here raved about the taco rice, so I tried it for myself today. It was DAMN good! Oysters were a killer deal as always.

Thanks Deon!

I'll check on the chicken for ya! haha nice opened for lunch now too? Sweet.

[SpuGen]

Lunch on a warm day on the patio...awesome.

I think I'm gonna start to go for lunch more often. It's not as lively as the dinner crowd, but it's definately more peaceful which I like. Smoooooth atmosphere.

[Ch28]

Went there for my birthday last week and everything was smooth as usual. I booked it for 9 people but had an extra person show up. The older Japanese man brought us to our booth and I knew right away it wasn't going to be enough for my group. I told him and he found us a table right by the end of the bar. Great service :D

Thanks for the blowjob Deon :p

[Slif]

open for lunch? awesome! you'll see more of me!

[freakshow]

my gf just went there the other day, said it was awesome!


so where do i get this VIP card.. :D

[Peanut Butter Jelly Time!]

went there on tuesday for lunch, was fairly quiet but teh food came promptly and the service was attentive.... the bento boxes are more than enough for just one person... should've split it with the friends as opposed to getting my own lol

[aznrsx1979]

Went there for dinner with a friend on Canada Day. I thought it was great, stayed till close to closing.

[RCubed]

went there today for dinner. Very satisfied. =]

:D

[Shun Izaki]

Went there last night...

for no particular occaision, though the drunk people pointed out it may have been one of our birthdays (which it wasn't) and yes she was 21 not 19 :D

Had some "special drinks" and got fucked...

all for a smooth, reasonably price...

I love this place, and i'm gonna keep whoring it up till Deon tells me to get out :D

Thanks again Deon, top notch service... even with drunkards like me.

Haha, Jay, I never knew your username before. Anyways, yes, the Jolly Rancher shots are really good too :D! And the Golden Balls!

[Expresso]

Deon, is the Ebisu in Richmond affliated w/ you guys in anyway?

[eLuK]

deon.....
hmmm

did deon used to work in Kamei Royale on broadway (near cambie)???

[Obsideon]

HachiSix: The Ebisu in Richmond is a new sister restaurant offering a similar menu but at the same time catering more to the Richmond crowd rather than Downtown based.

eLuK: umm.. ya... who are you? :p

[evilrose]

where is the ebisu in richmond?

and since i know who you are now, i'll be dropping by ebisu soon

cya then :D

On #3 Road by the Save On Foods

[S17]

Me and my friends went on Tues night...i'm surprised how busy it got later on actually. Second time for me and so far i love Ebisu.

One complaint was with the calamari that came w/ the Agadashi tofu. The calamari pieces were so tiny but they looked huge cuz they were covered in lotsa batter lol..it's nothing major just something i laughed at.

Other than that i enjoyed the Taco rice and loved the oysters...super deal. And the crab salad was delicious. As always the drink prices are awesome. All around great place to lounge around and chill. Me and my friends might come again tonight for some fun haha.

[hamsup]

is it the old daimaru ???

cuz i went to that restaurant about 2 months ago maybe.. and it was called Rz2 or something.. i forgot !

[Ch28]

Originally posted by hamsup

Yeah I think they took over the old Daimaru location. It's right beside a Starbucks or Blenz and across from the chinese restaurant "Loong Wong Bao Chi"

[J'zed]

yep... ebisu richmond is the old daimaru, which changed to r2 japanese rolls and tapas, which changed to ebisu richmond...same corporation though..

[MR_BIGGS]

I'm thinking of going to the Downtown location on a weekday for some drinks and some food..mostly drinks

what would a good weekday to go be in terms of drink specials or not too busy

[4AGmk1]

went to ebisu for some drinks on the patio with a long time friend from Vegas last wednesday.

wondering how come i got a "Shark" energy drink to come with my Absolute Bull?
shouldnt it have been a red bull??

not a big deal to me but my friend made a point that legally you should have had the waitress mention it before serving the drink.

just FYI for the manager..

[Obsideon]

Hey 4AGmk1,

Yeah the Shark Energy Drink owner came by the other day and gave me some great offers that totally blow Red Bull away because they were trying to win me over. I am currently using a batch that he supplied for me to see what the general feedback would be if I switched to Shark because Red Bull is a much more popular brand name. We'll see what happens when the Red Bull rep calls me in the near future wondering why I haven't ordered from them in a while ;)

The name, is the name, in the menu it says "Absolute Bull". It was just a tip of the hat to the 2 companies that have thus far been supplying me. Absolut Vodka and Red Bull, but the name just implies what the drink is. Absolut isn't spelled the same as the Vodka nor is Bull directly linked to "Red Bull Energy Drink".

Simply formalities. If I decide to stick with Shark then the menu will be updated very shortly.

On a side note. Back in the day at the clubs I always order "Red Bull Vodka" and not once. NEVER, has the bartender ever asked me "Is Shark ok?" when he was clearly pouring from a Shark can?... legal matters eh? :evil

Haha just kidding! :)

PS: So would it affect your decision in ordering the drink if it was Shark and not Red Bull? Your opinion and others would help in deciding if I should stay with Red Bull or switch over to Shark. If your indifferent then I will pick one that can benefit me financially in the long run so I can pass my savings on to my customers by not raising prices and even lowering them! :D

[Ch28]

Haven't tried the Shark energy drink before. Does it taste the same as Red Bull?

[RTS]

yay for Shark.

[grock]

i went down on wednesday to try this place out

food wasnt bad but I thought it was a bit on the pricey side compared to other izakaya type restaurants downtown

the service was very bad

[Obsideon]

You came down on the Fireworks night?

Yeah it was nuts, it was even worse than a weekend night because it was such a huge rush before the show, everyone came at the same time so the kitchen was slammed and I was short-staffed up front because all the girls I hired wanted to watch the fireworks so they couldn't come help the extra shift that they weren't scheduled for :flamemad:

I wasn't expecting it to be that crazy, the next few fireworks nights will be extra, extra staffed!

[4AGmk1]

aznsir: honestly..to me it tastes about the same..its just my friend mentioned it and she thinks it tastes different.
so i just brought it up here.

[Obsideon]

I sound so repetitive, but ya different strokes for different folks :\

Anyways just so you all know I have a new Chef's Special menu that will be running for probably these few months that just started today with some really tasty new things like Kobe Beef roll, Cream Cheese Gyozas and old favourites like the Baked Snow Crab, etc.

Come check it out, try'em and tell me what you think! I'd appreciate some feedback! :D

[Jermyzy]

I've never been to Ebisu b/c I don't like going downtown. I just noticed an Ebisu just openend up near my gf's apartment in Richmond. Is the menu the same?

I'm gonna assume the Richmond location will have more "chinese" style dishes as opposed to the downtown location

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

Hmm...went there today for lunch and I must say...the quality for Dinner is a LOT better than lunch...

The yakisoba + chicken teriyaki was REALLY salty....

I wouldn't go back for lunch =) BUT however~ I will keep coming back for Dinner =)

[Ch28]

My gf's family went down to Ebisu for dinner Friday night and they all agreed that the chicken karaage was one of the best they've had.

[Peanut Butter Jelly Time!]

whoa what?! did i miss something?! since when was there an EBISU in Richmond?! frick if there's a closer one i'm for sure going to visit there instead of having to tote my ass downtown everytime

[afro1314]

went to ebisu finally today after being outta town all the time.

Food was pretty good except i find that the food a bit on the oily side.
had the oyster motoyaki, thunder fries, tofu w/ calamari, unagee roll, salmon caponocci(sp?) and three raw oysters.
maybe it was because we ordered the wrong foods, but yea, a tad too much oil in the motoyaki, therefore the oil just filled us right up.

i think maybe u were short on staff? I was waiting by the door for about 4-5 mins and the whole time (staff noticed we were there), i just see staff walking back and forth bringing out food, maybe at least tell me to wait a moment and someone will be there to assist me? drinks/food coming a bit slow, and i'm talking abt a glass of water i had wait at least 10 mins for.
but like i said, it was just probably you short of staff.


BUT...overall....great atmosphere, great food, some pretty gd service (well, when they came along) and price was decent. I didn't find it THAT expensive as some ppl has mentioned, will definitely go again, perhaps this week..LOL!!

[Ch28]

You ordered oyster motoyakis and you're complaining about the oil? http://smiliesftw.com/x/hsugh.gif (http://smiliesftw.com)

[Slif]

wow. the Ebisu in Richmond is 3 blocks away from where I live. the Ebisu in downtown is 3 blocks from where I work.

wow.

d*mn you AznSir!!! :D

[afro1314]

just a "tad" bit on the oily said, but IT'S STILL GOOD!

[Obsideon]

Jermyzy: Ch28 is almost dead on. About half the menu is the same as the Robson location but the other half has been modified to cater more to the Richmond demographic whereas D/T has a much more diverse crowd.

SlayerS_`BoxeR`: A brand new lunch menu has been set with my dinner chefs. It will be out soon to replace the much too basic and boring current one so don't write us off yet! :p (We were short on kitchen staff.)

CSKC-7: LOL yeah but keep in mind it's just, not the same. The whole D/T vibe as suppose to Richmond. Richmond is, well, Richmond. ;)

afro1314: Haha well dang Oyster Motoyaki is practically baked IN oil and we give you the bread to dip into the sauce! (not for the faint of heart, or you health freaks) :p
Thunder Fries: Deep fried sweet potatoe ... that's kinda oily..
Spicy Calamari: Deep fried calamari on top of Deep fried tofu ... more oil..
Unachee: Deep fried Unagi and cream cheese roll ... wow you really like deep fried stuff! :D
Salmon Carpaccio: Ah you tried the new menu special! The salmon is first marinated in a sauce that has virgin olive oil as one of the ingredients ... so.. um.. :(
Raw Oysters: If that had oil in it I'm gonna have to fire somebody :rofl:
Well from the looks of it you DID have a pretty greasy meal. I think I would be bloated too after all that deep fried stuff, try some of the sushi an' grilled meat or some seafood next time! :)

Slif: Yes I'm stalking you. Brainwashing you to have Ebisu burnt into your mind! :evil

[afro1314]

hmm...i wonder if reservations are allowed on fireworks night???

[LC21]

soo is ebisu in richmond just as good?? it seems pretty new tooo.....

how much are all you can eats at ebisu??
price includes ice cream for dessert too?(other sushi restaurant..$1 a scoop)

[digito-X]

r2 didn't seem to last very long :p but atsushi and hide are still working there at this new richmond ebisu right?

[S17]

been there wayyyy too much the past 2 weeks...i don't think i'm gonna go to ebisu this week...hurts the wallet haha

[Peanut Butter Jelly Time!]

true, the whole crowd in rmd and dt would be completely different, but for convenience sake i would have to go to rmd, for atmosphere of course i'd choose dt... how how about giving me the address eh?

[iceburner]

I just went there yesterday. The Power of Love Roll and Crunch of Munch was pretty good. The Love Machine had too much mayo though.

My friend thought the waistress, Judy, was cute.

I asked her if Deon was there. I don't think she knew who that was tho =P

[S17]

Yo deon thanks for getting us a seat and for taking our orders over the phone...now that's some great service haha.

The yakisoba was really good last night. The other time my friend ordered it it was a bit different tasting.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

went there last night....


it wasnt...BUSY as i expected it would be

[Klobbersaurus]

do you hire based on looks or experience? cuz my gf went there tonight and it didnt sound positive

[willystyle]

i don't expect them to be hired on experience but to be properly trained and polite should be the bare minimum. to have your dinner served when everyone else at the table has finished their meal is ridiculous and to give attitude when asked about it is even worst.

[Mr.HappySilp]

Originally posted by Klobbersaurus

Well u can't always hire the experience ppl. I think it have to do more with if the person are willing to work hard and do they have a good attitude. Of coz looks is also a factor. Would u want a 300lbs female waiter severing even though she is super nice, good attitude and very helpful?

[TreyDoja]

I would like to make a public apology to Deon for my drunken display and my puking mess while I had my birthday dinner at Ebisu.

Again, thanks for accomodating all of us and I really do apologize for the mess I left on the carpet..

=(

Always a blast at Ebisu. Thanks again bro

[Ch28]

^ Damn son...learn to control your alcohol :p

[1z-0n-m3h]

i finally tried this place out yesterday on robson...

i liked it! i really like the yakiudon yumyum n the prawn and cream cheese gyoza! !
i would definately go again! hehe

[woozzle]

i'd take down that big red sigh saying "open for lunch" if i were you. gives that cheap chinese joint atmosphere

[Full`Throttle]

I had a bad experience with the service. Food is nothing to rave about but it's definitely not the worst u can find downtown.

[Obsideon]

woozzle: The sign is just temporary as we just opened for Lunch recently and it's to let the people passing by on Robson know. Yeah the sign is pretty ugly it was a super quick job haha! It was made in like 15 minutes!

Full`Throttle: uh.. thanks? :confused: LOL

[willystyle]

hey AznSiR

Thanks for the hospitality on Saturday, my friends told me i got a little too rowdy after taken down those drinks.. i hope i didnt scare the waitresses..

oh btw, u hired some pretty cute waitresses recently since the last time that i went before saturday.. keep it up!..

oh yah.. we all noticed that the sangrias are now a bit short on fruits than before, what happened dude? haha

[Obsideon]

Haha glad you enjoyed yourself I hope you made it to the club after!

Really? You should have told me. I never told the bartenders to use less fruits, same amount as day 1. I think they were slammed that night and they started getting lazy to cut more. I'll fix that prob, sorry 'bout that!

[willystyle]

It's all good, AznSiR.

The new cute waitresses made up for it. =P

[Derek_N84]

I take full responsibility for Willy's behaviour, I'm the one who fed him all those Red Dragons and Supermans hahaha.

Thanks for taking care of us Deon.

[ekim]

A shame that I still haven't tried this place out. Maybe I'll be able to drop by sometime next week. Are reservations ever required?

[Ch28]

I'd say Fri-Sun for sure

[mako]

A shame that I still haven't picked up my VIP card yet ... if it still exists

[Delish]

Came tonight with my girlfriends! We were the table beside the door that led to the corner patio.

We ordered so much food (I think she said it was 14 dishes??) the waitress told us we should stop haha.. I can't remember at the top of my head every single item we ordered but I loved the beef sashimi and the Unachee roll. The girls also seemed to enjoy thunder fries. The yakiudon was interesting. It was a bit salty but that was probably because of the bacon. It probably could have used more ingredients in it, like prawns or mushrooms and other kinds of veggies. We tried the taco rice because I had heard so much about it here. The girls didn't seem to think it was that big of a deal. I didn't mind it, I liked how bits of the rice were kind of crunchy. The Tiger Prawns are one of my favourites. AHH! I just realized that I forgot to order the Tuna Tacos.. I had them last time and I loved them.

All in all, I think everybody had a fun time and enjoyed the food. I was expecting service to be slow and crappy to be honest but I was pleasantly surprised! Food arrived promptly and your waitresses were friendly. The only advice I could offer is to have them swing by tables regularly to refill water!

10+ dishes plus a round of drinks and a pitcher of sangria for 8 girls = $257.. not bad!

P.S. your restaurant attracts a lot of pervs :p

[Type V]

and well cute hotties attract basically everything else in the world!

Haha, me too.

[Psyke]

Both times I went to Ebisu D/t with !SG was pretty cool :) Obviously with all the food and drinks that he orders.. everyone has a pretty good time! haha.. Might I add, when we ordered the sangria.. it was STRONG! woohoo! :D

Good food and drinks :lol Have yet to check out Rmd location..

[Meowjin]

me and a part of 3 came on sunday night.

Dissapointed because all the shrimp/prawn items we ordered were sadly overcooked.

although the rest of the items were good.

[Lomac]

So, Deon.... do us Mods get any sort of discount? :D

[Obsideon]

Definitely! I'll hook you up ;)

[ah_cat]

Deon
I'll be there this Saturday for a birthday dinnerrrrr

see you then!

[Mr.HappySilp]

wend on sat night. The tacos was so good!

I also have the chicken. It was not bad but I do find the pieces a bit too big. It will be great if the peces were smaller.

Off topic: Also saw some police arrest some guy in front of London drugs.

[Obsideon]

Yeah I saw that too, everyone at the restaurant was looking over and I was nosy to see what they were looking at. Some drunk ass cuffed on the floor, one of the customers said the drunk almost fell onto his car at the stoplight too.

[Ch28]

I'll be dropping by with my gf before the concert tomorrow night. See you then Deon :D

[SpuGen]

So I spotted an "Ebisu" in Richmond.. it's not the same is it?

[Obsideon]

It's not 'the same' per se.

Richmond is, well Richmond, so we kind of try to model it to appeal more to the Richmond crowd rather than the Downtown crowd.

That's not to say it's worse, just different, give it a try if your in the area & leave me some feedback as I can't be at 2 places at once! I'm in D/T more often. I try to drop by the Richmond one every once in a while to make sure they aren't 'sucking'. :)

[mako]

hey AznSiR ... can i pick up my VIP card from the Richmond location???

its tough for me to find time to go back to the DT one

[Obsideon]

Sorry nismo_s13 all the cards are with me and can only be issued by me. I'm only at the Richmond location once a while so if you do see me there then technically I can get you one but your chances are better in D/T.

[!SG]

#001 :D

[Ch28]

Deon was too busy interviewing some girl at the front of the restaurant to say hi to me :(

[S17]

one suggestion i have for u deon: give free refills for soft drinks!! cuz last time i was the sober one so i ordered an iced tea but i didn't know u guys don't do free refills after i got it lol

edit: sweet so u got the vip cards in now??! oh yeah :D

[ah_cat]

going back tmr :)

samurai power, here i come.

[CRS]

So Deon,

Whats the deal w/ the VIP cards? And mods get discounts?! If so, I'm totally dropping by! haha

And I don't understand what "samurai power" is..

P.S. Nvasion is looking for a place to have dinner w/ a "girl" so you might want to give him a holler.

[Obsideon]

LOL

VIP were issued according to the promotions I held earlier (last year) when the restaurant wasn't open yet. I believe you can still search for the thread somewhere if you look up "Ebisu"

Yeah I'll hook up the mods :D

Samurai Power is a special roll we have and I guess ah_cat really likes it!

Yeah I saw his thread but I don't want to shameless plug every thread in here haha! (BUT somebody can help me ;))

[CRS]

I already mentioned it to him. If ever I go on a random date, I'll PM you.

[ah_cat]

samurai power is my absolute fave!
and the yakiudon too!

and gomae-e ^_____^

thanks for giving us the table Deon!
It was super packed tonight... holy crap

[Derek_N84]

going back again tonight ...paychecks well spent :cry:

[Derek_N84]

Thanks for squeezing me in tonight at the bar while you guys were insanely packed. Much appreciated Deon.

[Ulic Qel-Droma]

alright i went there a few days.. err a week ago.

it was fucking jam packed. so we got a seat outside.

i only have ONE complaint, dude... you need those heater lamps outside. it was fucking cold. the alcohol helped. but heater lamps woulda helped more :p

other than that, it was good.

[Obsideon]

LOL Yeah sorry Ulic, I'm planning to setup the entire patio with a gas heating system, maybe glass roof and the works but I haven't had the time to get the people to come down and install it yet. I'm hoping to get'em in soon!

[kwanzor]

went to the richmond ebisu.. not satisfied.. compared to some of the girls workin downtown..

[Shun Izaki]

was not too happy about this location either...

lots of reasons, kinda ruined the night to be honest.

[Obsideon]

Oh sorry guys I'm usually at the D/T location. I go to the Richmond one like every few weeks but I'll talk to them, thanks for the feedback guys!

[Sandman]

can regular members still get discount cards or anything? .. or was that just a promotional thing you were doing last year =(

tried out the richmond one this time, since i live there... it was pretty good. fast and friendly service, will most likely go again sometime haha =) ...

p.s - send some of those cute d/t waitresses down to richmond as well ;)

[orgasm_donor]

Psst...Deon, clear out your PM box please (also, delete old SENT messages if you wanna make more room)!

[kitsune]

Hehe
FINALLY went for my overdue visit to Ebisu.
I was sitting with a friend at the bar/counter area.
It was yummy. ^-^ There was a hockey game going on so lots of cheering. 3-0 when I left for the Canucks. Haha
I wanted to say hi but you disappeared off to somewhere.
Busy busy~!

[!Shuya80]

went for bday with friends.friendly service *despite me drunk outta my mind the waiters and waitresses were still extremly friendly and didn't look at me funny*...fast also. a really good place to go chill with friends. definetly will go again.

[Mr.HappySilp]

props, i was at the night there, and despite the crowd we were hanging with not being too friendly... the waitresses were nice, and the food came super fast.

Deon i get my VIP card for visiting both locations twice a week? :D

[Ronin]

Deon...

You got a PM, buddy.

[Obsideon]

Yeah I got it, a lil' late buddy I'm totally slammed tonight. I got 300+ people booked up already. Damn can't even squeeze a mouse in here tonight :(

[Kaiten]

Hey I checked it out with my girlfriend last week; I like it a lot! I had no idea the boss was on RS. You can expect that I'll be back. Btw, you wouldn't be looking for a part-timer would you?

Nah, my friends had a good time 'cept one appetizer order that was messed up. Thanks for squeezing them in at the last minute.

[kurayami]

Yo Deon, is Ebisu in Richmond the same company? Cause one of the waiters that work there said it is a totally different company... Holy... it sucks ass compared to the one on Robson.

[arsenic]

Yes, I have to agree that the Richmond location is not as good. The Richmond location is more like a "regular restaurant" compared to a "hang out joint" like the Downtown one, which isn't what I was expecting when I went there. Also, some of the must-have menu items are missing like the fish tacos and thunderfries (the mini ones with the other sauce just don't cut it for me!). The Richmond one is good if you're just looking to get a meal, but not really chill with friends :).

[Jackygor]

Ebisu is the best!

Me and my friends have made it our dt dinner spot, if we are going to the clubs that night, we go to Ebisu for dinner!

Both food and price is decent, love the environment!

[evilrose]

went there last nite for a party....much better than the first time i was there. good job! i haven't been able to go to the restaurant as often as i want

[wahyinghung]

Will be hitting up there tonight for my fifth visit @ the DT location been pretty satisfied every time. I haven't been to the Richmond Location but friends that have been there told me to steer clear away from that location.

[stuff99]

your restaurant sounds awesome. I wanna pop by soon!

[K-Dub]

Do you have a semi-private area for like 30-40 people? Or is that...a bit too much?

Thinking of coming here for a big holiday/christmas dinner with a bunch of my friends...

[Obsideon]

I just held one for 55+ (Althought it felt like a LOT MORE Cman!) this weekend so 30-40 shouldn't be a problem ;) Just remember to call ahead!

[jlo mein]

Went to the Robson location this past weekend for a small birthday group, and I found it to be a very good night. The Ika Meshi (grilled squid stuffed with unagi/salmon/shittake sushi) was unbelievably tender and tasty, I've never had anything like it. I've had similar sushi compared to the Mango Paradise roll (california roll topped with smoked salmon and mango), but the salty smoked salmon makes this version the most appealing.

Some items were disappointing. The soft shell crab dish was soaked in a vinegarette that made it unpleasant, so I couldn't taste the crab. The Hamachi Inferno was disappointing, since the fish was sliced so thinly it had no taste or texture. Others at the table ordered more items and commented that too many of the dishes/sushi came with mayo/cream sauce.

I was driving so I didn't order any drinks. However I noticed the bartender was pouring cocktails filled with cubed ice, and he was free pouring. No jigger, no consistent speed pour spouts, not even pouring into an empty glass and then adding cubed ice after. I doubt his drinks have any measurable consistency at all.

One thing of note is that the restaurant seemed to be packed with a very young crowd, like underage drinking young. There were very few tables with the 20's and 30's crowd. I don't know if this reflects positively or negatively on the restaurant, just an observation.

Overall I was impressed by Ebisu. It is definitely a place I would go back to, especially on a hockey night with the huge projection they have setup on a wall. It's not a restaurant without it's faults, but it's decent. I would choose it over Hapa Izakaya simply because of service and the fact that Ebisu takes reservations. I would say Ebisu also has an edge on Guu based on location and value. (note: I know Ebisu is not an izakaya, but the format and menu are similar).

BTW: I'd really like to see nachos and taco rice removed from the menu lol...but if people like it, all the power to you.

Hey jlo,
Very insightful review and I appreciate it a lot, so first off thanks!

- I will make of a note of the less positive dishes that you mentioned!
- All bartenders have been trained and a couple of them have won bartending championships in Japan and the US so I have confidence in their consistency, give or take a few mL. All the bottles have spouts on them I forbid free-pour so the liquids you must have seen that he was pouring into the drinks were probably juices/syrup, they pour those into Absolut/Gin and other bottles for easier access rather than use juice boxes and jugs. I will still give it a double check though =)
- We always check the ID's of people that appear to be underage, most of the crowd are easily in the mid-late 20's. You know how asians are, always look young haha.

I'm glad you enjoyed your visit and I hope I can make your future visits better!

I'm not at the very least amused by the richmond location. It tends to be blatently playing off the name, as I was expecting it to be the same consistency and quality I've come to expect from DT ebisu.

I've been to the DT one many times, and have always had a fun time, with some bumpin music, awesome drinks, good atmosphere.

Went to the Richmond one, on a Saturday, or was it a Friday... and it was absolutely dead, not one person, nothing really playing on the TVs, all of 1 waitress and 1 waiter that seemed like they didn't want to be there.

When I asked for the drinks, they said they only had straight up vodka, and stuff like that. I was expecting to at least be able to order shots and so forth...

Arsenic is right, without normal thunder fries... it just ruined my night. At least she was there to cheer me up, and Mr. Daniels :D

[Peanut Butter Jelly Time!]

first of all, were you guys short staffed tonight? if so.. then please completely disregard this post... if not... then continue reading

the food was awesome. loved the sashimi advenuture...the yellow tail n the mackerel (sp?) was heavenly.... but sadly the service was quite disappointing. i've been to your joint a few times beforehand and didn't really have any complaints until now, perhaps it may have been because my friend and i were next to a large group, and stuck in a corner, but i must say, during our 2 hourish stay, we were checked on maybe 3 times, if not less. i was left without anything to drink for quite sometime, as well it took over 1/2 an hour for us to get our bill, and have it brought back to us. please feel free to PM if you need any further info. =)

[Jet]

I'm actually going to dinner tomorrow night at the downtown one and I just came by to see if anyone has some opinions on the place ... a friend wanted to try it out so its a nice surprise that its a revscener who owns it ... now I'm looking forward to eating there since it sounds like a great place ... :)

[princeroy]

I went there last friday night.

not satisfied.

Ocean Red sushi's price wasn't correct cuz website says it's 7.71.

I paid more than 12 $ for this roll.

I ordered 2 sushi rolls and 1 hot sake and 1 sashimi n paid $ 50 for 2.

Food wan't enough for 2 . and quality wasn't very good compare to the price of it.

But mood was good. and I liked lunch menu.

:confused:
The ocean red is $7.71 ... unless it's mixed up with another roll? That's impossible.. you can bring me back the bill next time and we can figure it out? We also use Wild Sockeye salmon to wrap the roll and that's not cheap yet it's 7 bucks. The other rolls like the Samurai Power, Ebisu Spiral, those are around $10-$12 but they are also bigger than the Ocean Red and various stuffing (BBQ, Eel, Tiger Prawns, etc).
Which sashimi did you order? The Sashimi Adventure? That's about $17 for Toro, Hamachi, Seared Beef, Salmon and other high-end fish.
I really do feel it's quite reasonable considering the location in central downtown Robson. I always check prices of all the other places in the area and we're quite competitive in terms of quality to prices. I'm not sure what you mean exactly by the quality we have pretty high turnover for food so we order fresh supplies daily but I'll have to look into that if you can be more specific. Thanks!
You should have tried some of the highly popular Thunder Fries, Tiger Mayo, Chicken Kaarage, etc. You ordered sashimi seafood and sake. I would still be hungry too! There are many other dishes that are lower prices that fill you up and taste good!
Also not every item is marked up the exact same way. Like example, a full dozen - 12 fresh oysters for 12 bucks?! ... super value right there considering Joe Fortes would be like $18 for HALF a dozen. It's the same oyster too it's not like they get it from the Moon eh? Most other Jap places go for about roughly $2/pc.

Food for thought. :)

Ah ok my bad haha let me see here..
Yeah I have to agree with you on some of the points there Diggy.
I didn't know the weekends were that bad hmm I might have to go there more often... and talk to the manager there ... ugh
Plus I am not there that much myself. Maybe like once every few weeks.
The Richmond location is made to look more like a restaurant than a lounge due to the Richmond Police being super uptight.

- If it LOOKS like people drink there, the cops will ride my ass raw. Look at all those drinking lounges that have been shutdown. Better safe than sorry. Since I'm not there to moniter the drinking that often.
- Plus too many gangster-wannabe trouble makers in Richmond so I don't want any problems.

Some of those issues regarding quality and service there will be addressed but for a fun time and partying just take the trip to Downtown and visit me! :D

Some people like the Richmond one simply for a good dinner and cheap beer but they don't like the D/T location because it's too rowdy for them. I know of a few regulars that go to the Richmond location for Canucks games too. So it's whatever you feeling you can go to either of them?

Hope that helps, and thanks for your guys feedback. It's always appreciated and I'll do everything to my ability to make improvements!

[mako]

hey deon ... the richmond one shows all the canucks games? ppv?

[Obsideon]

There no P in that :)

forgot to say thanks for your explanation of my complaint

[k20a]

Hmm. So does a Tiffany Yeh work at Ebisu??

[Ch28]

Will you guys be showing UFC 79 on Dec 29?

[beatdownvictim]

Went there this past friday.

Had: thunder fries, oysters, yakiudon and the cheese filled fish thing (on first page of menu, forgot name :o )

i'm coming back, and i'm going to bring more people. Dude named eric there was hospitable, always came to check up on us and made my gf laugh when she was pissed at me. thumbs up! good food and good service!

[IfUCare]

i've been there a few times with my friends.
great place, great girls, great food.
one small complaint, is that all the beef items seems too be wayyy to salty.
It really kills the flavor of the meat, especially, the steak one.

[Obsideon]

Just a heads up, our 1 year Anniversary is coming up this Saturday, December 22nd and we're gonna have a SNOWBOARD RAFFLE (The board is like $400 bucks) and many, many free give aways (lots of alcohol) haha so here's some more incentives to come down if you were already thinking of doing so or change your plans if you didn't :p

Also on New Years Eve I'm gonna keep this place bumpin' until 4am (Yes that's right 4am) so come down and party hard! Those of you that were here last year know how crazy it was I don't think I lasted until 4 last year ... like 3ish? *shrugs* Stop making me chug champagne! Disgusting! :bluemad:

There will be a cover charge of $25 on NYE but for the cool RS people here it will only be $15 but you need to tell me in advance!
Call me or PM me, whatever works! Let the good times roll!

[K-Dub]

kuro..dion...you got pm. =)

Ch28: Oops I thought I answered that already heh ... is it on PPV? If it's not then I can show it but otherwise it's not a good decision considerin how damn expensive it is for a commercial UFC license and not that many people come just for that like other places!

Yeah it's PPV :(

[ekim]

Finally went to Ebisu yesterday. Managed to get there before the hockey rush, was lucky since I didn't even know a game was gonna be on. Anyways to the food.

First up was the Mentaiko Yakiudon, a good start. The fish roe was a nice touch, by clinging to the noodles it held the flavour nicely. Next was the Chiwaku Cheese, good flavour combination and perfectly fried. The Prawn Gyoza was next and was only the real disappointment of the evening.I thought it'd be neat to have a gyoza with the tail hanging out, other than the presentation the flavour was a bit lacking too. There was a lot of gyoza wrapper and not much else to go with it other than the ginger slivers inside. Maybe adding something like some ground meat, a shrimp/seafood paste, some more vegetables or a filler like noodles or crushed tofu would've been nice. The Thunder Fries and the Ebisu Swirl put the meal back on track.

The fried items were very good, served nice and hot and cooked just right. The highlight of the evening came with dessert. The Cheesecake Creme Brulee really wowed us. Nice flavour and a the perfectly caramelized top was great. My friend kept saying over and over again that she was glad we came.

We didn't get to order much since we had been eating before and decided to drop by to try a few items, but we'll definitely be back. The only thing that really bothered us was the service. If we hadn't waved a waitress down, I don't know how long we would've had to wait for our order to be taken. But as long as the food's good I'll always go back.

[azncreationz]

I know this thread is Ebisu on ROBSON but... The other night, (Sunday, Dec 23rd) I went to the Ebisu Richond location. I didn't feel the food was as good as the Robson location. The worst part was, seeing one of the male staff members leave the washroom without washing his hands! I made a mental note to remember to post this, because I know Dion will read this.

Good review :) All things noted. Showed my chef what you wrote about the food. There already is shrimp paste in there but probably add more now. Also originally we did have the tail on there but they said it's quicker to make it this way now that we get so many orders but we'll consider changing it back if popular demand arises heh.
The past few weeks, due to Holidays I've been a little short on waitresses and it's been a lot busier than expected too but I'll be hiring some more soon. :(

EW that is disgusting!! :Puke:
I will call the manager there immediately and inform her to notify ALL the staff about practicing good sanitary behaviour, that is unacceptable. :chop:

PS. BTW it's Deon not Dion, common mistake heh

[Senna4ever]

^^^ Hehe... one chef I worked with was PICKING HIS NOSE in front of customers while working at the sushi bar!!! A customer came to me and insisted I make her sushi, and told me about him. Of course he got a talking to by the owner. Ugh.

So where's this Ebisu place? I heard it kinda sucked.
