Minato Sushi Japanese Restaurant

Minato sushi is closing at the end of September. I have been going here since it opened in 2002 and it is still the best sushi in Halifax. Go here for a last chance to have a delicious meal from owner and chef, James. We will miss you! Enjoy retirement.

I'm going to miss this place! They are closing in September, and we have had many great memories and delicious food here. The tempura and gyoza in particular are excellent.

This is my all-time favourite restaurant!! I’m so sad they’ll be closing at the end of September :( I’ve been going to them for years. They make THE BEST sushi I’ve ever tried. All food is made fresh, super delicious and always prepped in a timely matter. The owners are the kindest people I’ve ever met and are very accommodating to all my preferences. I recommend if you are in the area, to go there before they officially close down.

Great little sushi spot in Halifax. The ambiance of the restaurant is really cute, the hosts are welcoming and friendly, and most importantly to me the sushi is really good! Recommend giving the Minato roll a shot -- sometimes when you get avocado on sushi it's an afterthought or brown, or underripe -- this was perfect and reminded me why people put avocado on sushi in the first place. Little details like that matter and Minato nailed it! Would definitely eat here again.

When we entered the store, there wasn't a greeting from the chef. Instead, he just pointed at the empty desk. We ordered a Tokyo set, but it lacked variety; I would say 70% of it consisted of salmon nigiri. Although the menu stated that two soups and salads would be served, only the soups came, and they weren't that good.Additionally, we ordered an appetizer (Agedashi Tofu), which was priced at almost $7-8, but only three pieces of tofu were served.Overall, it's not the authentic sushi experience I was looking for, especially considering my experience in Japanese cuisine and having lived in Japan. It's not worth visiting.

I only got 6 pieces of sushi because I was hungry but not a lot, and the salmon portions were pretty generous. It was pretty tasty.

Tasty!!! Really friendly owners!
