Best Japanese Restaurants in New Westminster

Team MacDonald went to The Victor for a pre-concert meal (Lewis Capaldi at Roger’s Arena). We had Surf and Turf (3 course meal for $75), the Adult Happy Meal (Wagyu cheeseburger, fries, apple turnover and a Grey Goose Martini for $39) and a selection of sushi. Everyone was so pleased with the quality of the food and the service. We must confess that we love The Victor and frequent it several times a year. Still, this was the best overall meal we’ve had. I had two bourbons, my daughter had two espresso martinis and all of the food above was consumed by the 3 of us. The bill including a 22% tip was under $200. We couldn’t have been happier. Well done to all The Victor staff!

Amazing experience and hands down the best sushi I have ever had. Miku continues to exceed itself each visit. Same server as previous years, as always an immaculate professional and that alone is worth the visit. Amazing curated meal experience with every request accommodated. Loud table behind us, but that's not their fault.

We had a mini birthday celebration here, personally have been here twice before over the past 3 years, and the service and quality of the food has been very good! The staff at this location are very accommodating and efficient, the food is always great. SEAFOOD PLATTER is very worth-it, their mocktails especially STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE is surprisingly good too, and their CREAMY CHICKEN RAMEN and PORK TONKATSU RAMEN are must-trys.

A truly refined yakitori experience. The charcoal aroma is incredible clean, subtle, and deeply layered, exactly what you hope for from proper binchotan grilling. You can really taste the difference. What stood out most was the chef’s control over each ingredient. Every skewer is cooked with precision, bringing out the best texture and flavor of each cut. The chicken, in particular, was exceptional perfectly grilled on the outside while staying incredibly juicy inside, almost bursting with flavor in every bite. Simple dishes, executed at a very high level. An intimate counter experience that feels both focused and effortless. Definitely a place for those who appreciate craftsmanship.

We enjoyed the 3 course meal. Great service! Enjoyed the drink recommendation from the server.
