Maki MAKI!

After driving past this place all the time, I finally stopped in for the sushi dinner I had been craving lately. What a good decision! The rolls I ordered here mostly came with bits of tempura in them, which gave the maki a crunchy texture…More »

This was one of the first places I ever (reluctantly) tried sushi. (I grew up with a brother allergic to seafood, OK?) Even before I ever went down the raw fish route, I still liked Kyoto because of their great bento selections. 'Fraid of the fish? I…More »

Zen is a cozy sushi joint just north of downtown Edmonton. I visited Zen for the all-you-can-eat-sushi"deal for $20. The food was yummy and brought out very quickly. Although the choice of vegetables for tempura was questionable (green pepper?), the…More »

I'll admit, the sushi here isn't amazing, and the veggie tempura is basically limited to carrot and broccoli. I'm also curious as to how the carrot gets that wide, flat shape.

BUT - the sushi here is inexpensive, and it's pretty on par for an Albertan…More »

I was so looking forward to my trip to Banzai after checking out its stellar reviews on Yelp, so I was extra disappointed when it didn't meet expectations, or even come close.

Maybe it was because I had to wake up at 6 AM that day - a Saturday. Maybe…More »

I'm still a new lover of Japanese food, and my love is limited to: tempura, maki, and anything teriyaki.

The bentos here didn't offer a maki option, which was sort of disappointing, but my table mates enjoyed their sushi/sashimi bento combos…More »

No, it's not as fresh or tasty as straight-from-the-coast Vancouver sushi. I'll give you that. But come on, it's fast food sushi in Alberta. It's really pretty good if you come into Tokyo Express with the proper expectations.

Grabbing lunch here with…More »

Really? I haven't written a review for Tokyo Noodle Shop yet? That's so odd to come, considering I freaking love it here.

This is definitely one of my go-to spots for an easy dinner on Whyte Avenue. A lot of the dishes are very western-ized, too, so…More »

Nomiya was alright. Its menu is pretty different from any other Japanese restaurant that I've been to. Bento boxes? No. Tapas? Well, I guess so. They call it tapas, but isn't that Spanish? Anyway, they serve a vareity of rolls, ramen, and Japanese…More »

It's in a bit of an odd location, not in the trendy area of downtown. Don't let that throw you off, though.

The restaurant was quiet when I went, but kind of in a calm sort of way. My gal pal and I were seated quickly for lunch and had fun going…More »

Thank you, Sankyu, for having such a convenient location, right smack dab in the middle of downtown. LRT station right outside? Check. Bus route? Check. Walkable to bars for post-sushi drinks? Triple check!

But really, it is the only excellent thing…More »

I was skeptical of Furusato because of the whole, you-can't-see-in-through-the-w indows thing. It's also past the tracks, and almost directly under Candy Spa. So, y'know, it's a bit iffy when you're walking by. But I'm very glad I decided to venture…More »

I've never been more stressed out over a dining experience than I was at Japanese Village. It's very cool watching your food cooked in front of you, and our chef was very friendly. But knife tricks? I don't want knife tricks! Maybe I'm just a huge…More »
