I would say 3.8 is more precise. My mother in law enjoyed tempura udon, but tempura looked a bit oily in my opinion. Overall, salmon is quite fresh, red tuna was still a bit frozen when I had it, so I didn’t really enjoyed it.
Great little Japanese restaurant located on 17 ave. The sashimi here is really fresh and the prices are decent too. The menus boasts a large selection or rolls, appetizers, Korean dishes and sushi combos. The staff were really friendly and accommodating. Will be back!
From the slightly char-coiled unagi to the sweat tasting smoked salmon, this little gem hit on everything from friendly staff, tasty meals all at a cheap(er) pricing.... ohhhh how I will return.
Side note, free miso soup!!
We don't normally eat downtown a lot because of how expensive it tends to be, but we were short on time, needed something relatively quick and not overly-filling, and spotted this place. For fun, we thought it would be a good idea to share a couple of rolls and a pot of tea, so we went in. It was quiet, we were really the only people in there but it was early afternoon so the lunch rush was over. That worked for us, sometimes we like it quiet.
We ordered Gyoza, the Crab Salad roll, the Alaska roll, and the Fire Cracker roll for sharing. The tea was light, flavourful and very hot. The funny thing was the cups kept trying to walk across the table from the little bit of moisture on the bottom breaking the friction between cup and table surface, so they would glide a little. Brief amusement while we waited for our food.
The gyoza were delicious. They were very fresh, delicious and the sauce had some sort of a sweet vinegar hit to it that was amazing. The crab salad rolls were fresh crab, love the crispy tempura bits throughout, and the hint of spiciness was perfect. The Alaska roll is one I normally shy away from but in this case the fish was fresh and delicious, had a really nice smokiness, and the avocado was just right. My favourite was the Fire Cracker roll, not as spicy as I would have imagined from the ingredients listed but it was a different kind of spice from the crab salad rolls. The Fire Cracker ones were crunchy and delicious with an awesome heat to them.
Honestly I'd eat all of those again any time! Next time we're in the area I wouldn't mind trying a few of their other rolls as well.
Sushi is very tasty here, gyoza are perfectly crisp and tender on the inside. Very small place so it's great for pick up or causal dinner. Service is always really nice.
The service is slow but the food is amazing and their staff are extremely nice! I've tried several of their sushi rolls and have been extremely happy with every single one!
Pretty decent place for quick sushi. The service is a little slow, but the servers are really nice. The sashimi is quite fresh and I have never been unsatisfied by any of their rolls. If I am ever downtown and craving sushi, I always go to Midori. They also have a patio area which is nice when the sun is out, there are not very many Japanese restaurants that have a patio. Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for decent sushi!
Pretty good sushi. Staff are very friendly and always get my order correct when I order pickup. The only thing is I wish they were open on Tuesdays :(
Great little sushi place. I've only ever had good quality and good service. It's also open on Sundays, which is a bonus.
Gotta say it was one the best restaurant experiences in Calgary. Service was excellent. They have some amazing rolls. I've tried Midori Roll and another special roll with cream cheese in it (forgot the name..) along with udon and tempura. They were absolutely fantastic! The rolls were fresh, clean and well balanced(it really matters for sushi and roll lovers u know it;)). Udon tasted the way it should be- Not to salty not to plain. Tempura was also very well cooked and fried with just the right amount of frying powder. Crisp outside tender and juicy inside. I was full, but the food was so good that my friend and I had to order another additional roll to kill it- it was called Fried yam flake roll if I remember correctly. Very tasty. I don't usually, perhaps, never wrote a review in my life, but this time I had to because I want people to have some really nice experience just like the one I had that worth you spending.
