Reviews for Guu Original Thurlow in Vancouver, BC

Awesome little original place serving up a Japanese plates. Really enjoyed everything we ordered off of their seasonal menu.... Very reminiscent of drinking and eating at izakaya's in Japan.. we came with two small children and they were really awesome atfinding a place for our stroller and being friendly and welcoming to them. All in all excellent service, great food, and fundrinks. Definitely recommended! Read more

Came here for dinner on a Wednesday night at 6pm. Food and service were outstanding. All dishes went well with the small plates... we ordered. They gave us 2 hours limit to finish up before turning the table to another group. Two hours are just too short oftime to get the proper izakaya experience properly so 1 star off Read more

Visiting from Montreal and wanted to try an authentic Japanese pub. This place was above and beyond my expectations. Sat at the... bar and watched the friendly cook make excellent food all night. We tried the sashimi plate, the udon noodles with beef and theKorean fried chicken. All very fresh and tasty. The service was impeccable. Read more

Really packed space and always lots of customers. Good value for your money as it’s quite cheap and has good portion. I feel... like this restaurant gives me Asian street food kind of vibes, you know, the noise, the grease, the mess, the yummy food, thesmoke from open kitchen; it was a good dining experience. My 2 y/o daughter enjoyed it very much as the servers were very niceto her. Read more

Solid izakaya in downtown Vancouver, in keeping with the Guu brand. I visited here at the end of December, and had a fairly... decent experience. Unfortunately, the heat was not working that night, so much of restaurant was uncomfortably cold, even withmultiple layers on. The food itself was solid, although unfortunately a number of our food selections were sold out by the timewe ordered. The food that we did get, however, was definitely very good. Overall given the choice I would probably choose theGuu with Garlic location over this, but this location is certainly not a bad choice if you're in the area either. Read more

Great taste and food. Great staff that are taking care of your order and table. Pumpkin ball they have, was amazing and unique... ???????? I got an oil smell after leaving the restaurant which is almost common in open kitchen restaurants. A little tight in acovid situation otherwise you will enjoy everything. Read more
