9 Best Japanese Restaurants near Kanata

“Had a great experience at Windbell Sushi. I tried the torched salmon bowl with avocado salad and maki rolls — everything was fresh and absolutely delicious. The place was very clean, and the owner was so friendly and welcoming. It really feels like a family business, and I definitely love supporting places like this. Highly recommend!“

“Otroligt god mat! Rekommenderar starkt deras halstrade lax i kombination med chilimajo. Deras rullar och poke bowls är också storfavoriter här hemma. Vardagslyx; 10/10!“

“I’ve been coming to Sansotei Ramen in Kanata for a while now and it continues to be one of my favourite spots in the city.

A huge shoutout to Kei and the entire team for always providing such an amazing experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with friendly service and a great atmosphere that makes you want to stay and enjoy your meal.

The food is consistently outstanding. Every bowl is packed with flavour, prepared with care, and served exactly as you’d expect. You can tell the chefs take pride in their work because the quality is always there, no matter how busy it gets.

What keeps me coming back isn’t just the ramen, it’s the combination of great food, great service, and the positive environment the team creates. Everyone works hard to make guests feel welcome, and it shows.

Thank you to Kei, the chefs, and the entire Sansotei Kanata team for always delivering an amazing experience. Looking forward to many more visits! 🍜👏“

“Best AYCE sushi place I've ever been to hands down. It is really good, the service is fast and the portions are big. The sushi was amazing and their sides and appetizer we're also phenomenal. Without exaggeration, the lamb skewers were the best lamb I've ever tasted, do not sleep on the lamb skewers or the takoyaki.

Highly recommended!“

“Excellent food! Amazing service! Sushi was incredible. 10/10. Food had flavour and was made to order fresh. Great work! Definitely recommend“

“I dont usually give praise.. however I wanted to tell you guys about the experience I had with Maki sushi. Something happen to our order and David is a lowkey superhero. He defused the situation and provided a solution and covered 100% of their most expensive platter. I have not seen such amazing customer service in my life, let alone the sushi being pretty good and reasonable priced. One negative I would add was I wish there were more selection though. However tuna and salmon are my fav and that was fully on their menu

Thank you David for taking the inititive! I totally recommend Maki sushi“

“We made an order for Valentine’s day and unfortunately the driver chose to take another order before ours so the food came an hour late. However the food is amazing and service wise there wasnt much they could change about the situation except they gave us free cheese and chocolate cakes ! 🤓Thank you ! I was still happy once we finally received our food its the best sushi I’ve had in Ottawa. We’ve ordered before where it was fast just note the orders are delivered by dash drivers so on a busy day mistakes can happen.“

“Extremely fresh ingredients, extra crispy onions on top and perfect other ingredients-rice ratio.

It's not cheap, but also quality comes with a price most of the times. I forgot that here in Canada prices are displayed without taxes, I was hoping to pay 17 dollars for this dish, but I ended paying almost 20.“

“Sushi was very fresh and tasty. A bit pricey for the size of the smaller rolls but delicious nonetheless. They were generous with the pickled ginger and soya sauce. Service was friendly. Staff made some suggestions and gave me a sheet that explained what was inside the different types of rolls. I enjoyed them all.“
