Reasonable cost for some of the best sushi in Edmonton. They have the most unique rolls I've found anywhere in the city! We go every few months! We bring our young kids (which is a bit chaotic) and they are very kind about it .

Yokozuna was recommended to us by one of our Japanese friends as one of the few authentic Japanese sushi places in Edmonton, and it did not disappoint! We have been coming here for more than two years now, and it continues to be one of our favorite spots for authentic Japanese food.
The menu is large, fairly priced, and designed in izakaya style, so you can order multiple dishes and share. Over time, we’ve had a chance to try a variety of items and keep coming back for more. The skewers, sushi, and sashimi are standouts — always fresh and flavorful. The miso soup is comforting, and the clear soup is light and pleasant. Their teas pair perfectly with the meal and are a must when dining in.
For dessert, the sesame ice cream is a true highlight — nutty, rich, and memorable. The mango ice cream was also a pleasant surprise, with a fresh and natural taste that rounded out the meal beautifully.
On rare occasions, the rice hasn’t had the same fresh texture we usually enjoy — perhaps depending on the timing of our visit. Most of the time it’s spot-on, but once in a while it can be less than ideal. That said, the overall consistency of the food has kept us returning regularly.
The restaurant itself has plenty of seating options — booths, tables, bar seating, and even room-style sections with tall walls for added privacy. Service has always been fast and attentive, even when busy, and the calm, unhurried atmosphere makes it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal.
Our only wish is that one day they start offering fatty salmon sashimi or sushi. It would be a perfect addition to an already excellent menu.
Overall, Yokozuna offers consistently great food, attentive service, and a peaceful atmosphere. A wonderful choice for anyone looking for a quality Japanese dining experience in Edmonton.

Went there because of good reviews online. But we we're was not impressed with their service. We have a toddler and require a high chair or a booster chair but they don't have any. Ordered drinks for us and the kids, I asked for straw for the kids,again they said they dont have straw. They also forgot to put one of our order, if we didn't remind it we could have been waiting for nothing. The food was okay, nothing special about it.

This is my gem. Not many people know about it but I firmly believe it is the best Japanese restaurant in Edmonton . PERIOD. Staff/food/atmosphere all great. I’ve come here for over 10 years before the renovation and I will continue to come. (Ask for the specials on Fridays and weekends)
Great experience. Tasty sushi, well made.
