Reviews for Ora Sushi in Richmond, BC
We were looking for sushi for a late lunch today. Unfortunately Ichiro and Kun were closed for the afternoon, so we decided to... try Ora Sushi. Service was quick and friendly; however, the food was only so-so. Rice is an important component of sushi, yetall three rolls had mushy rice despite the fresh ingredients. Portion size was somewhat small as well. I don't think I'llreturn unless they improve the food quality. Read more
This is the first time I go and probably would be the last. I seldom give a low star rating unless it?s really bad. This place... is overpriced and food is mediocre. The portion of the food is so little. Especially the pork katsu, there?s only 2 bites ofrice and the pork chop was dry and thin like paper. There?s too many choices out there. Service was not bad though. Theserver would refill the tea for us when served dishes to our table. Read more
We went here on Canada Day and it was packed! Even though the resto was full of customers, the servers were able to serve our... order quickly. Prices are reasonable and the owners and crew are very nice. Food tastes yummy! Read more
I used to be a loyal customer, but I don't think I will return to this place. Last time we noticed the food hadn't the same... quality, but we thought it was a specific problem. Today I had the worst experience. I don't know if they changed the owner ormanager. It's not worth, it's overpriced! Actually, the price is the same, but they reduced the food amount a lot, the qualityisn't the same, the service were lack. The sushi thickness is now 1/3 in comparison to the sushi in the past, the food werebland, We waited too much for our food and my husband's food arrived about 10 minutes after. The waitress used to offer tea orwater, checked if everything was ok with the food and paid attention to customer needs. I don't know if they didn't receive atraining. I am really sad for writing this review because I always recommended this place to my friends. Read more
The Japanese restaurant we regularly visit was packed so we came to Ora sushi but will not be returning. Service: Terribly... lacking When we went in the server (lady with pony tail and glasses) just looked up from the bussing station and didn't botheraddressing us at all. The place was emptied so we seated ourselves. There were no other tables, yet she didn't bring us anywater nor come to take our order for 20 mins until we called out to her, then she acknowledged us but continued to organizeempty take out boxes/folding bags and came over 15 mins later stating she was ready. We were quite ready, to walk out the doorfrom being ignored. When the food came, instead of placing it on the table, she would hover it and wait for us to understandshe is passing it to us and have us to take the dish and set it on the table ourselves. There were no refills of water andwhenever we asked for anything, it would take her awhile to bring it. When other tables started coming in, another server cameout to help, which was much more friendly and competent. Hopefully the restaurant would be able to properly train the firstserver to up their game. Food: Edible but low quality The sashimi still had fish bones. Food portions are very small, almosthalf the size we'd get at the other restaurant but prices were par to other places. In general it was an unpleasant experience,there would be a lot for this restaurant to work on. Read more

We intended to have Greek food that day but ended up here coz our original choice was closed, and we're glad we came in. This is... one of the best Japanese restaurant in Richmond. The salad is loaded with seafood, i kinda want to ask for extra greens. Thesauce has a nice touch of spicy flavor that's good to the palate. Unlike other teryaki don I have tried in Richmond where thebowl is heavy on rice that is almost losing its flavor, this rice bowl is just perfect to make tummy satisfied. Although ourorder of soft crab came in late, it was still worth the wait. I will come back to try the Ora tower next visit and will updatethis posting. Read more
Foods are okay, but a bit expensive for this quality. Love that they have high chairs and changing table for babies and... toddlers! One thing have to mention, personally I think the music was just ... didn't suit the restaurant's environment. Read more
