Guu Tramasa will keep the concept of “For your daily re-charging spot” of all Guu Izakaya and introduce Osaka street food to Vancouver locals.

Osaka is the second largest city in Japan after Tokyo. During the Edo period (1603-1867), Osaka was known as the “kitchen of the nation” and the center of commerce in Japan, where rice and other specialty products were traded. With this background, Osaka’s unique culinary culture has developed, and the region is still crowded with tourists from Japan and abroad, who enjoy both traditional dishes and inexpensive street food.

The two staff members who manage Tramasa are originally from Osaka, which led to the creation of Guu Toramasa based on the theme of Osaka’s food culture.

    I heard there was a new Guu so we tried it for the first time. I was very disappointed with their food. I had the deep fried seafood teishoku but the “Koromo”was way too hard and didn’t taste good at all. Felt like just eating the batter. And the oysters were so small. On top of that, the white rice that came with the meal tasted like it was sitting in the rice cooker for a long time. Our server was nice but that was the only good thing. I don’t think I will come back here as my to go Guu Davie has much better quality lunch meals.

    Great food for both sushi lovers and those in search of cooked options. Service was very friendly but the kitchen was quite slow so the food came out intermittently instead of all together. Took almost 45 minutes between the first dish and the last. Overall the taste and friendliness made up for the rest. We would go back for sure.

    Once decided, service was prompt and pleasant; We didn't have to let them know we had to leave for the theatre; they were so efficient. Food delicious and very flavourful and authentic. Highly recommend especially for seniors attending the Orpheum.
