I’ve been coming here for years, moved from Airdrie to Banff, and they STILL remember my order! The service, the atmosphere, and the food are always top-notch. Easily a 5-star spot every day of the week!

We went there for dinner, what an amazing place. The atmosphere was great, the food was really great and service was amazing. Food tasted so fresh and flavorful, later we got talking to the owner and she said they get all their meat and vegetables fresh and you could taste it in the food. Would definitely recommend this restaurant. We had the sushi platter, teriyaki chicken, Ramen noodle soup,tofu teriyaki and spicy Korean chicken
Everything was great.

It was my first time at this restaurant. The seaweed salad was very delicious, and the green tea was good. I ordered the Zenbu combo 14 pieces, my first bite of the California sushi was disappointing, the rice was not cooked properly, it was crunchy not soft like a good sushi rice would be. I gave it a chance and ate 1 of the salmon sashimi the salmon did not taste fresh. I did not finish the plate, I stopped eating at 3 pieces. I tried my best to be polite, but I ate many sushi before and this was not good. Maybe the chef had an off day, I hope it would be better next time. The wait staff did asked me if everything was OK, because I did not finish the plate. I told them the truth, no apologies at all. I paid full priced, but I did not expect any discount or anything, but maybe an acknowledgement that the food was not good.

The food was fresh, varied and delicious. We ordered a bunch of different items and everything was excellent. When we ordered 2 orders of ramyun, the server came over to check in because she said it might be too spicy for kids. She recommended we order one and if it was ok, they would bring the second one. I really appreciated that advice because we didn’t need the second one. The serving size was large enough to share. We will definitely be back!

A True Hidden Gem – Zenbu Delivers an Unforgettable Japanese Dining Experience
From the moment you step into Zenbu, you're transported into a serene, elegant atmosphere that perfectly balances modern minimalism with traditional Japanese aesthetics. Whether you're a seasoned sushi lover or simply looking for a memorable dining experience, Zenbu absolutely delivers on all fronts.
Food: The menu is a thoughtfully curated blend of authentic classics and innovative twists. The sushi is undeniably the star — incredibly fresh, expertly sliced, and beautifully presented. The otoro practically melts in your mouth, and the dragon roll was a perfect harmony of flavor and texture. Their miso-glazed black cod is a must-try — tender, flaky, and rich with umami. Even the simplest dishes, like their miso soup or agedashi tofu, are done to perfection.
Service: The staff at Zenbu are warm, attentive, and knowledgeable. They're happy to guide you through the menu or recommend sake pairings without being intrusive. You can tell they take pride in both the food and the experience.
Ambience: Calm, clean, and intimate. Whether you're here for a quiet dinner, a date night, or a special celebration, the atmosphere is always inviting. The soft lighting and tasteful decor make it feel upscale without being pretentious.
Final Thoughts: Zenbu isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a place where culinary craft meets hospitality. It's rare to find a spot that nails flavor, presentation, and service all at once, but Zenbu does exactly that. I left already planning my next visit.
Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates high-quality Japanese cuisine.
