Sumibiyaki Arashi · Restaurant · Vancouver
A one-Michelin-star, 14-seat counter where chef Pete Ho builds a 16-course yakitori omakase over binchotan charcoal.
Sumibiyaki Arashi is Vancouver's yakitori answer to the omakase counter, a one-Michelin-star, 14-seat room that turned charcoal-grilled chicken into one of the city's most sought-after reservations almost overnight. It opened in March 2025 and demand has outpaced its size ever since.
Chef Pete Ho brings both his Taiwanese heritage and years of Japanese training to the grill, with a yakitori mentorship that traces back through chefs he met in Japan. The understated counter seats just 14 and is built around a binchotan charcoal grill, specifically kishu binchotan from Japanese ubame oak, which burns extremely hot and clean.
The centerpiece is a 16-course omakase of chicken skewers: heritage birds, expertly butchered, with every part put to use, framed by supporting courses like a red crab
Address: 363 East Broadway, Vancouver, BC V5T 1W5, Canada, Vancouver
