Murasaki Japanese Restaurant
Murasaki Japanese Restaurant has been a Port Moody favourite for over 15 years, best known for fresh, approachable sushi and homestyle Japanese dishes that keep locals coming back. Walk in and you’ll notice the relaxed dining room, friendly sushi bar and a menu that balances classic favourites with seasonal specials.
Their menu covers everything from nigiri and sashimi to comforting donburi and hot plates. Expect salmon toro, unagi kabayaki and a signature Murasaki roll alongside daily sashimi selections sourced from B.C. waters when available. Bento boxes are popular at lunchtime, with precise portions of tempura, teriyaki chicken and pickled vegetables. They also offer vegetarian options such as agedashi tofu and a shiitake-miso udon. For larger gatherings, Murasaki provides party platters and omakase-style sushi trays on request, prepared to order by their experienced sushi chefs.
Service at Murasaki feels personal and unhurried. The team includes chefs trained in traditional sushi techniques, some with more than a decade of experience. Staff take time to explain menu items, recommend wine or sake pairings and accommodate dietary needs, whether low-sodium requests or gluten-free soy sauce alternatives. Plates arrive with care, and portions are consistently generous without being wasteful.
Murasaki is deeply rooted in the Port Moody community, supporting local events and catering neighbourhood gatherings. Locals choose Murasaki for weekday lunches, family dinners and special occasions because the food tastes honest and the atmosphere is dependable. If you want consistent sushi quality, a friendly neighbourhood vibe and the convenience of takeout or catering, give them a call.
