Traditional and new? Yes we have them both.

Established in 1976, Kamei Royale was the first Japanese restaurant to introduce the now famous BC Roll and various original sushi dishes found in Vancouver. Presenting the largest counter-top sushi bar and an exhilarating Robata grill showcasing the chef's skills.

Kamei Royale has renovated and renewed itself again in 1990. Bringing forth a brand new bar lounge and Tatami rooms the massive floor space can easily accommodate up to 200 tour groups. Also, with the karaoke lounge now bustling, everyone can enjoy our popular drinks and dishes while singing away to the latest songs ranging from every corner of the planet!

Love this place for its delicious food and affordable prices. The staff is always welcoming and helpful. It is now our go-to place when in Vancouver and with its proximity to the attractions near Canada Place, it’s awesome!

Decent but not remarkable. Cocktails undrinkable, some of the sushi was quite good, others less so.

Lovely experience. Went there for my wife's birthday and we had a great time. Our server made some suggestions that we enjoyed. The Vancouver Sashimi, wagyu sushi and katsu don were spectacular! I had requested a special dessert as a surprise for her and they didn't disappoint... Brought in a lovely cake for us at the end. We had a great time! Thank you!

We almost didn’t go because of a negative review. Great staff and food. Could not beat the value of this place. Coming from Seattle we are picky about our sushi, but for $120 American, we got a lot of good food and drinks. Highly recommend. Only downside is the grill smell on the bathroom side is strong. We asked to be moved to the bar side and it was perfect.
