I am surprised by the low ratings this place has received as my friends and I really enjoyed this place. The sashimi platters are done so carefully and with such attention to detail that you cannot help but take a photo. The quality was definitely above average (though it is still not our favorite in the city). The service was great even though we had a group of 7 with many dishes split in very confusing ways. They had no problem splitting the bill for us in the end. I will definitely be back to try other dishes since my friend just moved right next to it!
Hidden gem. Good price. Great customer service, and delicious sashimi! If your not on a diet - I recommend the volcano roll and yam fries. The staff are always happy to see you, I love that they remember who you are. Great for a quick bite or take out at home.
This is one of my favorite sushi places in Calgary. I would say it is an underrated gem. It's a pretty humble restaurant that isn't fancy at all but the quality of the sushi is great for the price you pay. The cuts of fish are very generous and fresh. If you go during lunch hour, the lunch bento combo is a really great deal.
The owner of Nami's used to work at the famous sushi spot Miku in Vancouver and a lot of their dishes reflect that. Their box pressed sushi is delicious. The spicy tuna or salmon sashimi and Calgary Flames roll are must try items.
Ordered thru skip the dishes and the assorted sashimi was thick and fresh. The yam tempura was nice and crispy. I thought the spicy roll combo was disappointing and will not get again. The salmon filling was a bit mushy and was not pieces of sliced salmon as we are usually get at other restaurants. We ended up throwing out half of order. Will be willing to try checking out the actual restaurant and trying other items next time.

Sushi on a whim after eating pretty unhealthily during this Cowtown trip, we went on google and found what was closest with the highest rating. Which brings us to Nami Sushi and Grill. Beautiful Sunny afternoon led us to the patio in this quiet restaurant off 17th Ave. Basically empty aside from just one other table on the patio occupied. Decorated with Just-Eat stickers and restless wait staff standing around, the impression and expectations for the rest of this sushi trip was set. Generic and lengthy menu with overly pushy staff that seemed a little too quick to rush us out. Food was decent, prices were fair; but overall, meh. Service didn’t cut it for me and I’m sure there are better places around the area for a more memorable sushi experience.
Assorted Sashimi - ($26.95) - 4/5 - 15 pieces of 5 different kinds, which came out to be salmon, tuna, octopus, and amberjack. Presentation was beautiful, slices were thick and big. I guess you’re getting the bang for your buck with this order. Tasted fresh and decent- not totally melt in your mouth fresh or anything but curbed our hunger and sushi pains.
Salmon Battera - ($10.50) - ⅘ - My love for pressed sushi in unreal. Seeing this on the menu made me ecstatic. Torched salmon with avocado and a nice savory creamy glaze on the top. This was so satisfying, my favorite of the dining experience.
Conveniently located, this is a great place for drink specials and sushi that won’t break the bank. We tried some of the combination plates and the beef tataki. I like that the restaurant offered lots of room for groups, comfortable seating and booths as well. They also have amazing drink specials - so a great option in and around 17th Ave. Staff were incredibly friendly and fast with orders.
Nami is much better than whatever it used to be. I've been doing takeout lately and found it to be pretty good. Particularly the tuna, maybe I've had bad tuna at other places, I found the tuna here to be decent. Last night we went and dined in. It was super busy! So service was lacking but I understand. Food was great, had the Green Dragon roll, tuna and avocado roll and the BBQ squid. All very good! I will continue to eat here.
Good quality sushi at an excellent price! They have a great variety to chose from and the staff are always friendly and provide great service! This is my go to sushi place in Calgary.

The food was great and reasonably priced. 40$ for 42 pieces of sushi, two salads, and two soups. The service was lacking a little bit, as we didn't really see our server, and had to go up front to pay because we had to leave. Would return though
Great place to eat with a reasonable price compare to other sushi restaurants! The servers are friendly even the people at sushi bar😄 Please go and check out!
