Honjin Izakaya continues to be a top destination for food lovers, offering incredible service and a welcoming atmosphere. The lamb chops and beef tongue are seasoned to perfection, while the wagyu beef sushi melts in the mouth. The hot sake remains a must-try, and the prices are very affordable for the quality of food. The Honjin Trinity and Special dishes still come highly recommended.
The restaurant is a great spot for both couples and larger groups, and it fills up quickly around 6 PM, so arriving early is advised to avoid waiting. Customers have enjoyed a variety of cocktails, with the margarita paired with the Honjin seared scallop roll receiving particular praise. The rolls are noted for their unique flavor profiles, showcasing fresh ingredients that stand out compared to typical Japanese restaurants.
While the BBQ skewers may vary in quality depending on consumption timing, the attentive service has been appreciated throughout the night. Recent visitors have found the atmosphere friendly, making it an enjoyable dining experience. The unagi rice has been rated highly, with its special flavor, alongside the lobster sushi roll and mango tempura shrimp sushi roll. Overall, Honjin Izakaya remains a hidden gem for sushi lovers in Alberta.
