Reviews for Tendon Kohaku - Downtown in Vancouver, BC

This is addictive. The tempura is a light batter so it doesn?t feel heavy. Coupled with an amazing tempura sauce drizzled over... the rice and fried tempura - I feel like I can eat this forever. I got the seafood don and the shrimp and squid wereamazing. We also got a side of chicken wings - it?s not fried but done with a sweet sauce. It reminds me a little of the sweetKorean fried chicken sauce (honey garlic perhaps). Read more

Finally got to try this place and it's as good as hyped. The bowls are so tasty, the sauces is really good! The interior is also... super cute, very calming. Definitely going to try the combo of tempura and sashimi next time, as well as the melon milk ???? Read more

Fantastic tempura bowl that made me feel like I was back in Asia. Could have used a bit more rice but the quality of the food... was top notch. Would come back more frequently if tempura were healthier (not a knock against this place). Read more

This place was amazing. Been looking for Tendon since moving back from Tokyo. Great ambience, food was fresh and delicious. Had... the Ebi (shrimp) and Vegetable bowls spicy. Took us back to Japan. Price was very reasonable to or maybe just so coming fromToronto. Tempura was on point - light and crunchy. Read more

*We arrived for a late lunch, so we were really hungry and that might have influenced our perception of the food* ???? The... restaurant was very clean, bright and welcoming. The host greeted us, checked our vaccination cards and promptly showed us toour table, then offered us a choice between water and green tea. The drinks came immediately and shortly afterwards a servercame by with menus. She took the time to explain the menu and offered us her suggestions when we asked for them. The food camevery quickly and was absolutely delicious! I loved that you are offered a dish to place your tempura so it doesn't get soggy.The tempura batter was crispy and light. I was worried it wouldn't be enough food since we were so hungry, but the serving sizedturned out to be plenty filling for us. We really enjoyed our experience: quick, friendly service and delicious food! We'lldefinitely be back. Plus it was nice to see that the staff were very multicultural; we heard the staff speaking English,Japanese, Mandarin and Korean. Read more

I really loved this little place! It does get busy, but even on a Friday night me and one friend managed to be seated in 20... mins. The food was delicious and filling, and the flavors are authentically Japanese. Keep an eye out for the extra sauce on thetable! The cheesecake is served with an adorable shovel spoon! It wasn't too sweet or heavy, it was sort of like eating a crossbetween whipped cream and yogurt with a delicious strawberry compote. The wait staff is kind and quick, but they do get busy sotry to be patient! A fantastic place to hide from the rain in. Read more

Great place! Service is great and the food is very tasty! You'll leave full and satisfied. The staff are very efficient and... friendly as well. Their menu consist of mostly fried food so I felt lethargic after our meal but that's just me.They offer yougreen tea (it helps) and check on you if you want more. Will definitely come back! They still have a lot on their menu that Iwant to try. Read more
