Originally located on West Hastings St in Coal Harbour, Miku first introduced 'Aburi-style' cuisine to Vancouver in 2008. The new location offers a full bar and lounge area, waterfront patio, private dining room and full service sushi bar.

“Come to Miku for the experience of seared sushi and walk around the waterfront area.“

“A beautiful experience that is well worth it. Stellar service, food and ambiance. “

“Delicious. Nice ambiance and amazing service.”

Their Aburi (seared) Style Sushi and Seafood definitely stands out amongst other dishes. The fresh oysters are excellent and sashimi is top grade. The fish and chips are made light and crispy but juicy and luscious at the same time. The Ebi Fritters and spectacular designer rolls are recommended also. They have SAKE FLIGHTS and plum wine flights. The drinks at Miku are also wonderful. Not too strong, full of fresh flavors and pretty to look at too. Try the Green Tea Opera Cake for dessert, it is classic, magnificent and gorgeously played. Deliciously made and sweet to the eye.

Aburi Sushi inspired by the innovative idea of sear-flaming sushi. It has been familiarized since early days of history that a light sear direct from the flame enhances the natural flavor of the fish.The idea of flame-searing the fish goes above and beyond normal sushi style. By creating specialty sauces to go with each different Aburi style sushi and introducing flavors beyond peoples’ expectation, Aburi Sushi brand has successfully established its reputation.

Aburi sushi is a symbol of Miku that breaks the stereotypes of both Japanese and Sushi restaurants and creates a new style of culinary terrain. However, pursuit of something new also means to nurture the tradition while continuously carrying it to the future. The secret of the flavor of Aburi sushi comes from the method of making shari (rice). Persistency to the flavor of shari maintains the flavor of Aburi Sushi while pursuing the new Aburi style.
With a fierce determination to become a destination restaurant loved by the people of Vancouver while representing the best of Japanese tradition and creating innovative food, Aburi continues to be a staple of bliss in this city.

Traditional Japanese flavours and techniques are combined with local, west coast elements to create a truly unique dining experience enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. Innovative desserts made in house, created with perfection to the culinary experience.
