I’ve been here many times but today, a Saturday at 2pm, it was a solidly mediocre experience. The food had no presentation and it felt like we got the odds and ends of whatever they had left in the kitchen. Very disappointed in this Guu compared to the other ones in downtown.

Visiting Vancouver we thought it best to tackle this cuisine and it didn’t disappoint. It’s a tapas-style menu, mostly small shareable dishes so take advantage of that with your mate.The only real criticism was the octopus was very over cooked other than that, the sashimi is what dreams are made of and the udon noodles were soft enough to sleep on.

I really enjoyed dinner here. I went on a Friday night and the vibe was great. Staff was very attentive. The food here is really good and a very decent price for the location. Can’t wait to go back

We came here as part of a food tour that goes through several places around the city. This place is very cool. We tried a dish that was fresh and yummy. We’ll definitely come back soon to try the food

If you wanna try a traditional Japanese food you have to try here, make sure you reserve before you go as they are usually full but still you can sit on the bar which is fun

We went to Otokomae for Dinner. Its a vibey place up the stairs but it was very cold ( it was a cold day outside but heating was not adequately compensated). My partner ordered a bibimbap and I ordered just plain rice with Ikamaru grilled squid and pork cheeks with kanzuri ponzu. My partner was disappointed with the bibimbap (forget which one we ordered) but it was more of rice with meat on the side and not all the other ingredients you find in a bibimbap. I enjoyed my squid and pork cheeks. However, food came in bits and pieces as they were done, so it was difficult to generate a cohesive meal. Also, portion was a bit small for pork cheeks. The service was a bit stretched and disappointing but I did notice some effort from one of the servers. Maybe better to go for happy hour then a full meal.

Overall, nice experience. It's not highend, so don't go if you are looking for a highend izakaya. I love the food here and the price is reasonable. Their daily special is what gets me to come back time over time. I highly recommend this place if you are in the mood for some down to earth, asian izakaya dishes (not sushi. Although they do have some sashimi on their daily special menu).Happy hour ends at 5PM unfortunately.

Late night food here is the best. Hand written menus every night with the daily specials.

We’ve tried all but one guu on Davie and this one doesn’t disappoint. Was not busy when we went in the morning which was great. Food was tasty and enjoyed all the dishes we ordered.

⚪️Salmon with 7 friends⚪️This was recommended by a friend, and I love it! Raw sockeye, 7 kinds of Japanese side dishes, natto, fried garlic slices, pickled radish, pickled plums, etc., mixed with seaweed and wrapped in seaweed, the taste and texture are very complex. If you can't accept natto, you may want to avoid it.▪️⚪️Cheese Tofu⚪️SOOO delicious, with a little more honey and caramel sauce on top of the cheesy tofu I used to have, so it was sweet overall. It's dense but not greasy▪️⚪️Sashimi Salad⚪️One of my friends' favorite dishes. There are scallops and yellowtail in the sashimi. The large pieces are also very fresh. Surprisingly, there are shredded radish underneath, but I don't think the sauce is refreshing enough, it's not Japanese vinaigrette, it's mayo▪️⚪️Tenderloin Beef Bibimbap⚪️Probably the most average dish in the whole place. Too little sauce, so some are bland. At the beginning, the rice is sticky if the eggs are not coagulated, and the dry and fragrant rice is more delicious when there is rice in the back.▪️
