Annie was absolutely amazing during our visit. She was so friendly and paid close attention to every detail. Since my dad is going through cancer treatment, he has many dietary restrictions, and Annie went out of her way to make sure everything worked for him. She thoughtfully removed garnishes, served sauces on the side, and checked in with us often to confirm everything was okay. Thanks to her care, my dad was able to enjoy the meal comfortably, and that meant the world to us. We’re truly grateful for her kindness. πŸ₯Ή

They give 100/100 service,
First off really welcoming
Second you got a try the lobster udon it's the best ramen ever. Flavour on point and egg be perfect and honestly I don't write reviews but I'm really happy with the service there super kind and patient and will explain the menu to you and let you know the specials. I got a fried shrimp with some oil I didn't like on it and they gave me a whole new plate of fried shrimp for free and a new dip sauce and was super considerate and nice. And there waitress are attentive and can get there attention really easy. You know it feels like bare minimum service in restaurant nowadays are so hard to find and here they go above and beyond to make it a great time. And great food. ANNNNND IM TELLING YOU! the.lobster.udon.is.Great and then at the end they gave me 2 pocky for free😭πŸ₯ΉπŸ«Ά they are so sweet.

Love my neighborhood sushi restaurant. This place never disappoints. Had the raw oysters, then they had a golden menu which had some different items so had to try the crispy chicken skin was very delicious. Then had octopus Carpaccio was so tender & very flavorful. You can't leave without having the lobster roll and the truffle california roll, scallop roll. We're absolutely amazing! Can't wait to go back.

πŸ₯— Taste: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
πŸ‘‰πŸ» The Ocean Jewel was a standoutβ€”fresh, cold, and bursting with flavor. I loved the smooth, briny oyster paired with rich uni, salmon roe, and quail egg, creating an incredible texture and flavor harmony in every bite. The Yaki Abalone was tender with a buttery, umami-rich flavor, while the grilled scallops on shells were juicy and perfectly charred. The Wagyu Uni Donburi was indulgentβ€”melt-in-your-mouth beef topped with creamy uni over fluffy rice. The King of Chirashi impressed with its generous, colorful variety of sashimi, each piece fresh and satisfying. 🍚🐚🐟

πŸ’πŸΌ Service: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
πŸ‘‰πŸ» The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, offering great recommendations. Dishes came out promptly and were beautifully plated, showing both skill and care. πŸ˜ŠπŸ™ŒπŸ»

🍽️ Environment: 🌟🌟🌟🌟
πŸ‘‰πŸ» The izakaya has a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere, perfect for enjoying fresh seafood and grilled specialties with friends. The table may need more clean✨

I was amazed to find such fresh sushi in Calgary! I expected more flavor from the wagu beef, but it was fine.
