I hope you had a good weekend last week. If you are in Canada, I hope you are having a great May long weekend.
This week I’m doing another restaurant review. This time for a restaurant we went to Sen Zushi. The well established restaurant ( the only date I can find is from when they opened their FB page in 2011) is my mother’s favourite.
The decor of the restaurant is like that of an old farmhouse ( without the tatami mats). There are dark wooden beams and traditional Japanese items on the walls.
When one walks in, one is introduced to the specials board, which they encourage to take a photo of to browse at one’s leisure once seated.

The restaurant opened at 5pm and my mother, Ryu-kun, and I were among the first to be seated. The restaurant filled up quickly after that.
The staff were knowledgeable and attentive. I had decided to change my salad choice after I ordered and the waiter did not make me feel like it was an inconvenience, and attended to it right away.
We ordered the Ebi Tempura, Ika Salad, and Grilled Saba (mackerel) Set. A bonus: unlike many other Japanese restaurants the green tea is free.


All the food was delicious and there were no surprises, which is nice when ordering traditional Japanese dishes.
Compared to Yua, the prices are reasonable. $20- $40 per person
Because of the excellent service, the delicious food, and the ambiance, KotsuKotsuLife is giving this restaurant a 5 out of 5.
The restaurant is located at 940 Fort Street, Victoria, BC
