Carp Sushi and Bento is a little Japanese take out restaurant located near Kingsgate Mall. A friend of ours highly recommended this place for their sashimi and rolls.

M and I decided to come here after work for a quick dinner, it would have been quicker, but I ended up wanting to try so many items off the menu. Sometimes I can be such a pig.

Once you walk inside this small space, you will see a few things for take out in the fridge, a counter, and 3 tables.

I think they can fit about 10 people in here. Maybe less?

We put in our order at the counter, paid and found a seat. They also have a kids combo too.

You can find other items on their chalk board.

They gave us hot tea as we waited for our meal to be prepared.

I couldn’t stop staring at this moo-cow creamer as their soy sauce dispenser. Super cute.

carp-4

Salmon and Tuna Sashimi were very good quality. That tuna was so fatty, that it might as well just be toro. 10 pieces of $12 isn’t bad considering the quality of it.

Moo-cow creamer in action with the soy sauce coming out of its nose.

Tuna Tataki Salad has the tuna tataki on the bottom topped with greens and a light dressing.

carp-6

Truffled Mashed Potato was surprisingly good. The truffle is subtle, but it works well together as a side item to your meal. It is served cold.

carp-7

Mini Japanese Curry comes in a small bowl, think of it as a little taster.

carp-8

Sea Eel Candied Salmon Roll comes with 8 pieces. avocado, cucumber and candied salmon on the inside topped with the eel.

carp-9

OMG Roll has 8 pieces as well. It is topped with spicy salmon and these crunchy ball bits. Good rolls as well.

carp-10

Inari is a tofu pocket with rice, seasoning and these tiny crunchy balls. Good and simple.

carp-11

Cone trio comes with California cone, crunchy prawn cone and a spicy tuna cone. All three were tasty and put together well.

carp-12

Sesame Ice Cream and Green Tea Ice Cream was a nice sweet treat to end the meal.

Overall, all the items were really good. If you want to try a bit of everything and not want to spend too much, the bento boxes are a great option for under $10.

I would come here again. Awesome hidden gem.

  1. Great find! And I was obsessed with moo cow creamers when we traveled in the States years ago. Looking forward to saying hi to this old favourite 🙂
