50 Best Sushi Bars in Calgary

“Great staff, great decor, and amazing food! Always love to come here with my wife and family. This is a great place for parties or a date night and their sister restaurant Ajito is very trendy.“

“The service was attentive, the food was delicious, and the prices were very reasonable.

The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, making for a comfortable dining experience. Great value for the quality of food and service provided!“

“We came to celebrate a birthday and were not disappointed! From the second we sat down, our server Stephanie was kind, attentive, and informative…our chef Alvin was engaging, fun, and entertaining! Both of these staff members made it truly an unforgettable visit…they both went above and beyond, and interacted with our children throughout the entire meal and made it an incredible experience for our entire family. This is definitely more than just a restaurant - it is absolutely an experience and we would recommend 100% (especially for kids - they won’t stop talking about how much fun they had)!“

“Food was excellent. Love how they served the sashimi on top of ice cubes to keep the fish cold. The mango rolls was a delight and different from other Japanese restaurants as it was filled with small mango pieces inside the rolls. Yummy! The service was great, and the staff was super friendly.“

“Truly spectacular food, chill environment and attentive staff.

It was my first time trying crab, and I’m glad it was in this place. The tuna and salmon were really flavorful, you can just taste the freshness. I did regret not ordering the tempura udon because it sounded great, that gives me an excuse to come back though, so it wasn’t a total loss.

That being said, the establishment makes it perfectly clear that due to its small space, you do need a reservation. Luckily, we did make one, but knowing me I would’ve just barged in and things could’ve gone side ways.“

“I came here yesterday because I was craving sushi and let me just say the food is insane. I ligit had to come back the next day to have it again. The food is also very well priced and the portion size is huge. I’m from Edmonton and by far one of the best sushi’s I’ve had and want to come back to Calgary just for this spot. Also such friendly hospitality. Love it here!“

“I almost don’t want to write this review because I’m scared it will become even harder to get a reservation but credit absolutely needs to be given to Zushi Calgary.
Hidden inside Avenida Market in south Calgary, this tiny 4-seat omakase experience feels like stepping into a cozy Tokyo Tsukiji Market. We were lucky enough to book the Omakase experience for 4 adults, and every moment was unforgettable.
If you are looking for a luxury fine dining room with fancy decor and white tablecloths, this is probably not it and that is exactly why we loved it so much. It feels authentic, like sitting inside a hidden fish market sushi spot in Tokyo 築地 where the entire focus is on the chef, the fish, and the experience itself.

The chef carefully prepared and plated each piece of sushi like a work of art. Not only was everything visually stunning, but the umami flavors were absolutely mouthwatering .Every bite felt like a masterpiece. This experience left us so happy and satisfied, and we even ordered extra scallops and salmon because they were just that incredible.

What surprised us even more was how reasonable the pricing was for this intimate omakase experience. Every single plate was thoughtfully crafted, and you can truly feel the passion and care behind the experience.

We left with full stomachs, huge smiles, and immediately booked our next omakase for next month already.“

“Food was fabulous. Nigiri Sushi Dinner was top notch. Everything from apppitizers to dinner was great.“

“I'm in love with the with their pizza sushi.“

“Delicious Japanese food in Calgary with actual Japanese people working here.
We had the sashimi platter with otoro from Tsukiji market in Tokyo, kyushu style chicken nanban, the oshi sushi, and panacotta for dessert. Everything was incredibly tasty and thoughtfully prepared. Highly recommended and we will be coming back 👌“

“Amazing, simple menu but some of the best Japanese I've had in the city <3. the staff is so friendly and kind as well.“

“Loved my experience here!
Was super intrigued about the Sushi Pockets & they did not disappoint!
I got the Spicy Salmon, California, Spicy Beef & the monthly special Butter Chicken. All tasted amazing, great price & very filling! Will definitely be back to try other items!“

“Great place for sushi, delicious and didn’t wait to eat. Plenty of options to choose from and the price is reasonable. Parking is a little limited but that’s normal for downtown Calgary. We’d come back again and we will be back!!! Thanks“

“It’s really wonderful food. Amazing like a live in & testing Tokyo Japan. Hana Sushi’s restaurant“

“The food here is always incredibly fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Compared to many Japanese restaurant chains, you can really tell that a lot of care and attention goes into every dish. Each meal feels satisfying and fulfilling, and the quality is consistently noticeable.

The restaurant itself has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are always friendly and kind. After trying many Japanese restaurants over the years, I still find myself coming back to this small spot. It remains one of the best options in the city and continues to be my favorite for both quality and overall dining experience.“

“Super sweet place. Sushi is solid. We get take out and dine in. The staff is so kind. Our children love picking out a complimentary candy at the end of the meal. Really hope the locals support this place so that it sticks around! Great neighbourhood sushi joint!“

“Excellent experience both times we came. Impeccable service that was welcoming and kind. They offered us hot towels and a container to put my bag. The menu is slick and not over complicated. The food quality is unmatched. The fish is so fresh and buttery. The rice is done uniquely with a fluffy texture in each roll. Their grilled squid dish is so flavorful and tender. This is a pricey experience, but it lives up to the quality of the fish and delicate preparation of each item. This is one of the few locations in Calgary where you can get Hamachi or Yellowtail. The only item lacking was the matcha experience; the grilled match mochis were a tad underwhelming, but not enough to deduct any points. Highly recommend this resturant for a high quality, fancier eating experience.“

“I went with my two very young daughters for lunch and we all shared an absolutely delicious bowl of traditional ramen on a slow weekday afternoon. The server was lovely and brought child friendly dishes for the girls. (they also enthusiastically slurped soup noodles and loved the soup too).

Also kudos on a happily accessible restaurant and ladies washroom where things like the mirror and sink and dryer were at a height someone in a wheelchair could actually use(I can't speak for the men's).“

“From the food to the service to the staff, it honestly is just the perfect spot. FRESH sushi made to order within a beautifully lit space that feels warm and welcoming! Have been several times and what they deliver on every level is always consistent!“

“first time eating here with a diverse group with limited Japanese food experience. mind blown!! beautiful atmosphere, staff were amazing made the 2 birthdays in our group very special. The food was beautifully prepared and tasted amazing! one in our group is a meat and potato's guy but is now a sushi lover! expecting a huge bill at the end of the night but was shocked at how very reasonable the price was for a total of 7 people. Definitely will be back a new favorite restaurant.“

“Excellent service from start to finish. The servers and manager were attentive, offered great recommendations, and made sure we had everything we needed. They went the extra mile to celebrate my dad’s birthday, which made the night feel special. Highly recommend.“

“Was craving some Karaage Chicken and a bowl of ramen. This place does not disappoint. We were the only ones there initially, so the food came quickly, was well presented, hot and tasty. Went with our server's recommended action for the ramen and it was quite good. Will definitely go again when I'm in the area.“

“Fusion Sushi is a warm and welcoming place, it’s busy but the staff are friendly and very accommodating. The green tea matcha ice cream blows my mind and is a must try.“

“Food was outstanding. Fresh, tasty, great variety. Will definitely return soon.“

“I was shocked by the good quality of the poke bowl of Netsui Sushi! The vegetables are very fresh and delicious and the style of the poke looks artistic ! I really enjoyed it. Also the price of the food is very good to compare to the other Japanese restaurants. I would like to be back by the next trip.“

“I just want to thank Kinjo for their exceptional service! We had a little mix app with our order tonight and the management/staff went above and beyond to help! I'm truly grateful, what they didn't know is that it was my 9 year old son's special treat for doing so well in school which he was looking forward to all week so they just made his day (and mine)! Not to mention how amazing the food is and the Almond Pocky's which we are now obsessed with!!!! Thank you so much, I can't wait for more sushi! :) Your loyal customer, Jackie“

“The whole family really enjoyed the ambiance of the place.“

“hands down one of the best sushi places in yyc, the teriyaki chicken was phenomenal. the sushi portions were huge. the flavour was
unreal. we live on the opposite side of
the city and will likely come up
here just for this place.“

“Lovely staffs and great Food 👏👌“

“Sushi Kimu is now one of my favorite go-to spots for sushi. The food, service, and atmosphere are just as amazing. The staff were very friendly and attentive, the service is quick, and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality you get. Most importantly, the sushi is consistently fresh, authentic, and absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend Sushi Kimu to anyone looking for a top-quality Japanese dining experience. It’s without a doubt one of the best sushi restaurants in Calgary!“

“Unique Sushi Bar, with your orders all done on tablet menu on the table with your menu selections delivered to on a train right at your table. The sushi itself was premium quality, prepared and presented perfectly. We tried several different menu choices, but the sashimi and cowboy rolls were the best. Considering Calgary is at least 1000 kms from the nearest ocean, choose wisely where you go to dine on sushi here. Point Sushi is a good choice, and would go back any time.“

“My go to restaurant!! Food is consistently great!“

“It’s really wonderful food. Amazing like a live in & testing Tokyo Japan. Hana Sushi’s restaurant“

“THIS is the best spot in Bow Valley Square. The poké bowls are customizable and absolutely delicious. Even better is the customer service - the woman who runs it is amazing and the staff are fast and make the food perfectly every time. It's my go-to for lunch.“

“Amazing food at great prices“

“This place has the best sushi in Calgary. The staff are amazing and the food is so good. I would highly recommend it.“

“This is great sushi and the staff/owners are great.“

“They finally reopened last week at their new location, I was dying having to eat mediocre sushi in Chinatown, but now, no more! Always fresh, big pieces and prices are reasonable. Not the cheapest but the quality you get surpasses any of the cheaper places.“

“Amazing family owned restaurant. The service here is phenomenal and so personable. The food I'd delicious and always prepared so well. This has become a favorite of mine recently. Highly recommend.“

“The oyster was fresh and delicious, we really enjoyed the oysters. Happy hr oyster is a great deal. We tried the bang bang shrimp , chicken kara-age, beef tataki.. it was delicious too.. highly recommend this place to everyone. Can’t wait to go back again soon.“

“Takeout only. Sushi incredibly fresh and tasty. Service excellent. Male cashier professional friendly accommodating. Perfect spot to grab a bite and head to picnic tables at the park on Patterson Blvd when warm weather. Three gluten free choices of sushi.“

“Used to eat here once a week when I lived in Calgary. Now that I have moved away I go here every time I visit calgary!!! Please, Please, Please open a restaurant in Edmonton!!!!!!!!!!“

“This place I like. Their sushi tastes much better than a lot of places in Calgary and reasonable rates. I would love it more if they have more sushi nigiri combos catering to Koreans and Japanese and most of the time the sushi combinations tend to cater to westerners where it’s mostly salmon and tuna when there’s a whole world of ika, uni, scallops, ikura, hamachi, tako, masago, etc and that’s because I trust this place can deliver the quality.“

“by far my family and mine favourite resturant in chestermere! the staff and owner is amazing !“

“Soji Sushi has quickly become one of my favorite spots in the city. The owner is so kind and genuinely cares about every customer, which makes the whole experience feel warm and personal. The sushi is always fresh, flavorful, and prepared with great attention to detail. I love that it’s also convenient for grabbing something quick without sacrificing quality. it’s perfect for lunch on the go or an easy dinner. The consistency, freshness, and the welcoming atmosphere keep me coming back again and again. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great sushi with amazing service!“

“Fresh Fresh Fresh. Everything we ate delicious. Second time there this month.“
