Expect an "authentic izakaya experience" at this midpriced chainlet where the "original", "modern Japanese tapas" offer a "mouthful of mmmm"; servers "yelling out orders" add to the "boisterous" environs, and if a few find the "shouting" "disruptive", "diehards" deem the overall experience "too guud to be true."

Izakaya can be thought of as Japanese small plates, like tapas, and Guu offers up tasty dishes that are affordable and great for sharing with friends. The Thurlow location is the original space that they opened up and due to their ever-growing success, they have four other locations in Vancouver and have two in... more
