“I don’t do reviews much but Sushi101 was incredibly delicious with an artistic flair that just added to the experience! We actually had to admire the artistry before diving into the various sushi roll plates. I am not one to take pictures of my food but the presentation of the various plates made me give-in and I did take my phone out for a few candid shots. I know it’s rude on date night to have a phone out but it really was that incredible!! Service was wonderful and a little wait is necessary when the food is coming out that fresh and beautiful. They were busy with eat in and take out; word must be getting out!! Well done chef and team at Sushi101!!“

“We had a good lunch today at Sushi Nami In Dartmouth. Our server was very sweet, service was prompt and my sashimi, nigiri, maki platter was very good! My man’s beef udon noodle soup was also good!

My problem, and I know it sounds trivial, is with the washroom. It’s just not befitting a Japanese restaurant. I’ve been in much better gas station bathrooms…this one had a cracked sink with rust stains, the metal wall-unit for garbage looked filthy, chipped paint all over. Normally, Japanese restaurant bathrooms are elegant and clean. It’s jarring to walk from a nicely decorated restaurant into such a crappy bathroom.

This is why you’ve lost one star.“

“I was walking by from Public Garden and discovered this place. I tried mango matcha late. I am so happy to experience the authentic taste of it. As the same item purchased from franchise companies look completely different. I recommend this place.“

“This is one of the best experiences I've had on my 5 day trip out in the greater Halifax area. The food was refreshing and tasty, and the atmosphere was absolutely lovely. Best of all, the service was fabulous and the staff were super kind and attentive. Find the time to fit this in your schedule because it was an absolute gem of a spot. Best of luck to you folks!“

“Wow, what an amazing surprise. Best take out (fresh made to order) Sushi I have had in awhile. The Edamame and the Spicy Tuna rolls - perfection! Run, don't walk!“

“We tried Chicking tonight after hearing others rave about it, we were not disappointed! The chicken was AMAZING and the king sauce super delicious! We will absolutely be back!“

“Came here with my friend to celebrate before I flew abroad and we had such a fun night! The food was fresh, came out fast, and everything we ordered was so good!! Our server was super friendly and attentive i think his name was jayjay or smth, the whole staff made the experience even better! Also… whoever had the guys working behind the bar that night knew exactly what they were doing because they were FINEEE 😍😍😍 10/10 experience. Definitely coming back whenever I’m back in Halifax!“

“The other people on here are right about the Tonkotsu Ramen. This probably exceeds most ramen-only shops. I don't usually drink the soup but I find myself almost polishing it off. It's light but filled with umami flavor and the grilled pork is amazing too. They didn't take any shortcuts with the onsen egg too, it has the shoyu flavor it's supposed to and just slightly underdone. The atmosphere is chill and homely and service is quick. You can leave in 15-20 minutes or stay for however long. Definitely coming back and trying other stuff on the menu!“

“Absolutely delicious sushi, our new “go to” sushi restaurant whenever we come into the city! Very accommodating with regard to peanut/sesame allergy and gf options. Generous portions, fresh, tasty maki, outstanding rolls, friendly service, cosy atmosphere. We found very reasonable underground parking close by which is great.“

“Good price and good tastes. I liked all dishes that I choosed. Staff are very kind and nice.“

“Generally I love this spot. Normally the sushi is first rate and a good price for what you get. I pretty much always get the same. The signature sushi this last time was poorly put together and fell apart each time I picked it up. Overall generally recommended but the last time was a bit of a disappointment“

“The ambiance is stunning, with lovely lighting that creates a warm atmosphere. The sushi is incredibly fresh! I also appreciate the charming teapot and the beautiful flooring. I enjoyed a solo dinner and am truly grateful to have met all of you! So inclusive !! Best, Founder of #7GG All my luv Rebecca Wall“
