“Nagomi

I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been here a few times already. Any town I move to or live in I make it a goal to try every sushi spot!

We went for the Prix Fixe menu as this is the best time to try restaurants in Whistler.

Few notes, it’s a good deal! You don’t feel like you’re being ripped off for the price of $39.

You get 4 course and there’s a lot to choose from but here’s what I picked.

Blue Fin Tuna Tartar (8.6/10) they give you a hearty portion of tuna much more than I was expecting! Flavour profile was pretty good overall but a little heavy on the onion.
Biggest issue is they give you 3 wonton chips which wasn’t enough for the ratio of tartar.

Deepfried Softshell crab: (9.5/10) by far the best softshell crab in Whistler! Yes I know it scares some people but it’s one of my favourite dishes to ever exist. If you haven’t tried it before I highly recommend if you can get over the look!

For the main course you get a choice of 2 sushi rolls or 5 Nigiri (personally I find you’ll get better value going for the rolls)
I went with the Beautiful Roll, and the Spider roll.

Not shocking I went with the roll with more softshell crab it’s my favourite, sadly this roll lacked actual ingredients inside of it.
The beautiful roll on the other hand was fantastic, great texture, great flavour, would recommend!

Dessert is a choice of ice cream mochi ball. They’re pretty tiny but luckily I’m not much of a dessert guy. It’s a nice touch at the end of the meal though.

I’ll be back again!“

“An amazing night . Food was great ,service outstanding just a great night“

“Fantastically fresh! Great atmosphere! Great service!“

“Surprised I haven’t done a review by now. I’ve eaten here probably 80-100 times. This place makes me feel like I have a home in Whistler. The Korean family/friends that run this place treat me as their own, a warm smile and a friendly welcome back when I show up, always gives me joy. It’s probably the cheapest sushi in town as well!“

“Affordable sushi in Whistler. Great for takeout or dining in. Never had a roll I didn't like.

Parking: It's located in Nester's Market right outside the village. Free parking for all the shops in the market out front.“

“Always up for some great Teppanyaki!“
