I went to Sushi Hiro tonight for dinner with my husband. The service was amazing (as always), they greet you the moment you walk in and let you chose where you would like to seat (they have both Japanese style tables and classic restaurant tables). The waitresses came around multiple times to check on us and brought the food at a nice pace (not too slow not too fast)! The food was great starting from the super fresh sushi and sashimi! The appetizers were delicious ( we had chicken kaarage, Japanese pickles and pickled crab). The tempura was piping hot and crunchy while the rice was very fluffy! Even the salad and the miso were great! The atmosphere is typical Japanese and perfect for a relaxing dinner with friends or family. I can't wait to dine here again!
Selalu ke sushi hiro.. tempat favorite 😊 paling sering pesen siok maki, da best ever.. dan yg bikin seneng ada aplikasi zomato free ice cream. Restaurantnya juga nyaman. Pelayanannya bagus
A great place to go for lunch. Come early for the lunch specials as they seem to run out quickly. The food was delicious and high quality. Our lunch box came with tempura, sashimi, soup, salad and another small soup dish.
The nabeyaki udon was fantastic, filled with traditional vegetables, a molten egg, fish cakes, and chicken. The broth was rich and mellow. Every single vegetable was perfectly cooked: meaty shiitake mushrooms, nega negi (long green onion), carrots, spinach and cabbage. The tempura could have used some salt, but perhaps not. I asked for the tempura on the side, instead of served in the broth. I shouldn’t mess with tradition. The portion was large and served piping hot. L and I both raved about the nabeyaki udon and agreed we’d come back for this dish.
Sushi Hiro Japanese Restaurant is a casual Japanese restaurant, which located on 5th Ave Southwest Downtown Calgary. It is a medium size of the restaurant, but the location of the restaurant is not very easy to find. It mainly serves sushi, bento boxes, and kitchen entrees.
My friend and I had a late lunch at Sushi Hiro Japanese Restaurant. We arrived at the restaurant around 1 pm. Even though it was weekdays, the restaurant was still very busy. But, we had no problem to get a table. After we sat down, the server came to us and brought drinks and menu to us. The menu was very simple, but there were no many selections and no pictures. We had very hard time to order our lunch. The server was very friendly and helpful, who helped us.
We ordered $9.50 Chicken Teriyaki and $16.50 Nigiri Sushi special to share. After we ordered the food, our food came out the kitchen very fast. The Chicken Teriyaki was in the large portion and came with a salad with house dressing and a bowl of rice. The taste of the chicken teriyaki was very different from other restaurants. There were large pieces of chicken and the taste was very awesome. The salad was in Japanese style so delicious. It was a great deal for two people to share. The Nigiri Sushi Special was not that excited, which were fresh raw fish on sushi rice, included 8 pieces nigiri sushi and 2 pieces maki roll. Very easy, simple, and expensive. If two people share this dish, I would like to recommend people to order more stuff to eat.
In summary, both my friend and I love Chicken Teriyaki more. The prices of the food were expensive in this restaurant. But, it was very nice to try different Japanese restaurant in Calgary.
Traditional ambience, very attentive service, and stunning food. If you know traditional sushi, Japanese style, then you know that this restaurant is the best in town. Sushi Hiro has been in this location since the beginning, and that is going back at least forty years, if not more. This is the real deal, not a trendy approach at all. If you're looking for top quality cuisine and the freshest fish in traditional ambience that takes you out of Calgary, this is the place. Absolutely superb.
Honestly such a hidden gem in downtown Calgary! A Japanese owned restaurant with fresh offerings. We had the toro, salmon, ikura, amaebi nigiri, all of which were great. It's also great that they have more traditional items such as Japanese hot pot and chawanmushi. We'll be back again for sure!
Best sushi restaurant in Calgary. For great sushi, it's all about the rice, and Hiro does it best. It's soft and vinegar'ed to the right texture, which holds its flavour when biting down with the fish. The only other place in Alberta with such good sushi rice is Chef's Studio in Canmore, which also knows proper sushi rice.
The service here is always great for dinner, when it's slower than their lunch crowds. They provide the traditional attentive Japanese service.
I come here just for the chirashi bowl. I prefer the lunch version to the dinner version (more popular fishes for lunch like salmon, tuna, ebi). Tried various rolls and while the fish was high quality, they weren't worth their price tag imo.
Sushi Hiro is a classic sushi restaurant serving quality seafood skillfully prepared. Don't go there expecting trendy rolls that look like creepy animals but rather expect fresh seafood and good portions.
This is the first place I ate such over thirty years ago. I was converted to a sushi eater then and have eaten sushi in a multitude of establishments.
Hiro's cuisine is as good as any I've had. I'll be back there soon.
We were very lucky to be able to catch the store at the time of their reopening. The quality of the food is great, our meal averaged out to about 25$ per person and it was just enough. I would recommend for anyone looking to enjoy delicious authentic Japanese cuisine .
If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! As soon as you walk in the place is warm, welcoming and extremely clean. The service is second to none. Also the skill of the chef is on display as you can watch him work his sushi magic, the years upon years of dedication to his craft is certainly shown when you eat anything (and I mean anything!) on the menu. Everything you can possibly order is very fresh and handcrafted to perfection. 10/10 recommend! This seriously is the best sushi restaurant, anywhere, that I have ever tried!
Best sushi & sashimi in Calgary 😊! Its fresh, authentic and delicious. Their Shabu-shabu is tasty, and they also offer Omakase (if requested ahead of time.) We did Omakase for our anniversary, and we highly recommend it.
Its worth trying this local restaurant that is owned by the nicest family. Not to mention, their service is impeccable.
For traditional and authentic Japanese cuisine, this is one of the gems to look up in this city. The menu is sophisticated and does NOT offer the overdone maki sushi offered almost everywhere that's covered in tempura bits, mayonnaise, and sauce that you can't even taste the fish. Worth trying are the yamakake maguro, kawari mushi, shishamo, and unadon. The daily special on the shima aji nigiri sushi that they had on my visit was absolutely amazing. I also found this place's iterations on saba and tamago to be quite delicious. The aji tatake was out of stock but I really hope to try it next time (I hope soon!). Very much recommended.
All the staff were really nice and helpful, it was busy when I was there and I came without a reservation but they were very accommodating. The sushi was fantastic and probably the best price in Calgary. I'll be coming back!!
Most authentic Japanese restaurant in Canada. The food was great! One of the highlights of my trip to Calgary.
The best Japanese restaurant in Alberta! My previous #1 was Sushi Wasabi in Edmonton but now Sushi Hiro takes the place!
