- AArunGoldVancouver / British Columbia •43 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoAdrianne and the entire Team at Minami were wonderful! Minami was gracious to change our table, and Adrianne is a wonderful server, who described dishes and cocktails, timed out the dishes, and provided great conversation. The dishes — such as the scallops — are delicious, and the sushi is excellent, as usual. Thank you!More infoMinami Restaurant$$$$• Japanese• Yaletown•4.6

- PPaigeToronto / Ontario •1 review4.0Dined on 1 Aug 2026Enjoyed the meal! We had around 6 dishes to split, a cocktail per person, and a shared small bottle of sake between us three and the bill came to around $100 per person. I’ll certainly try other Guy locations as I think the menu changes slightly between each one.More infoGuu Otokomae - Gastown$$$$• Japanese• Gastown•4.2
