604 Just Eat: Japanese Izakaya @ Gyoza King [餃王]

Feb. 26th, 2015

Gyoza King [餃王] @ Robson Street

Food:  3.5/5   Service:  3/5   Atmosphere:  2.5/5   Price:  3/5

Gyoza King is one of the popular Izakaya place in Vancouver Downtown since 90's.  I haven't been there for a long time.  We came here tonight for my good friend's birthday.  We remember that we used to come a lot in the old days;  good old memories suddenly all came back!  LOL.   
MUST EAT:  Gyu Yukke, Ebi Mayo
 
Gyu Yukke
Beautiful!  Chopped raw beef was so juicy and flavorful with the sweet soy sauce and raw quail egg.  Must Eat item.
 
Negitoro
Chopped albacore tuna sashimi with Seaweed.  Fresh, above average quality.
 

Ganso Gyoza
Homemade Gyoza (Pork and Vegetables)
It was good but not extremely impressive.  Compared with my memories, the flavor was much better before.
 
Avocado and Tuna Salad
No special. 
 
Ebi Mayo
Pretty shrimps were deep-fried lightly with tasty seasoning and not oily at all.  Must eat item.
 
Robata
Nicely grilled, it was good.
 
Yaki Udon
The taste was mild, light sweet soy sauce flavor.
 
Agedashi Tofu
No special, average quality.
 
 
It was nice to know that they're still doing pretty good on the food quality and services.  There are many options of Izakaya restaurants in Vancouver now.  I think Gyoza King should work harder on their signature dishes and new seasonal dishes in order to stay competitive in the market.  Worth to come back in the near future.
