Back in February, we shared the news that a new aburi sushi spot, Zenbu Aburi, was setting up shop right beside Aberdeen SkyTrain Station.
And now, thanks to another Noms Mag community member (@every.stephy) for the tip, we can officially sayโitโs open.
Soft-opened last Friday, this spot is serving up some flame-seared goodness.

And if you needed an excuse to check it out, theyโre running a 20% off promo for their first monthโbecause letโs be real, we all love a deal.
Zenbu Aburi stays true to its name (Zenbu = โeverythingโ in Japanese), offering a lineup thatโs all about aburi sushi.
Their menu is packed with options, from classic sockeye salmon and hamachi oshi to crispy tuna oshi and even beef oshi for those who like a little variety.
You can grab them by the piece ($2.50 each) or go all-in with an 8-piece set for $18.
They also serve inari sushi, with toppings like spicy tuna and negitoro, plus combo platters for those who canโt decide (we feel you).
And if youโre the type who trusts the chefโs picks, a huge 46-piece omakase platter has got you covered.
The space itself is minimalist yet cozy, featuring light wood tones, corrugated metal walls, and decorative ceramic bowls mounted on small floating shelves.
Itโs giving modern Japanese eatery with a touch of warmthโperfect for a casual sushi fix.
Next to the cash register, youโll find a display case showing off their aburi sushi selections, so you can literally see whatโs calling your name before ordering.
According to staff, Zenbu Aburi is an independent spot (no big chain affiliations here) and theyโre just getting started.
The grand opening is set for March 21st, and theyโll be adding even more aburi flavours to the menu by then.
With Richmondโs food scene booming (shoutout to other new spots like SWEET7, LuckyJ, and Dinestyโs new Richmond Centre stall), this is one more solid addition to the mix.
If youโre craving some casual flame-seared sushi, nowโs the time to check them outโand maybe flex that 20% discount while you can.
