Was in the neighborhood so we gave this place a try. Very worth the prices!! We got two special rolls, 3 pieces and sashimi and a bento box for less than $50! Rolls were huge (even though I prefer them smaller) and sashimi was nice and thick. Service was attentive and fast. Also they have bentos all day which is nice if you want variety but don’t want to decide what to get haha
Frequently dine in and take out as well. The food here is great and very budget friendly. As of this posting, the menu listed is out of date, so the prices are actually a little higher than that.

Decided to try their lunch bento box and was very impressed by the food quality and service. There are a couple things I look for in a bento box, price for value, variety and whether or not it comes out fast during lunch. I was not disappointed. Miso soup and salad was really good. The dressing on the salad was fruity and fresh and complimented my rolls, chicken katsu and sushi very well. Chicken katsu was crispy, not too oily and very very tender. The sauce they give for the chicken was very tasty too. A nice touch and different from the regular vinegar based sauce. The dynamite roll was a little too plain though, had too much rice, lots of cucumber with small shrimp and avocado. However I ordered the flame roll (?) and it was presented beautifully and tasted as amazing as it looked. Crab meat, avocado, cucumber and tempura shrimp on the inside with unagi and avocado on top. Topped with fish eggs and unagi sauce! All in all, a very satisfying lunch experience. Will definitely be back soon to try other items for dinner!
Four of us visited for lunch. Its a nice room and we were well looked after. We tried a couple of the bentos. The food was good and arrived at our table quickly. Overall, it’s a good spot for those living in the ‘hood.
Yet another hidden gem. This location was found carved out of sketchy area/parking lot. Walk inside however and you'll find it is an authentic Japanese environment and was bustling with tables, which we were not expecting.
The sunomono was weak. Over lemoned, and loads of noodles, lacking the tang of vinegar. Didn't like it, and didn't finish it. :(
The rolls and bento box was well portioned and tasted great. The dressing was a big hit, which had me wondering "what the heck is in this?" It was sweet but not too much, and had me thinking about it over the taste of the rolls.
I've been here a handful of times. I am always amazed with the portion sizes. The rolls and sashimi are on the larger size and very tasty. I would characterize the menu as Korean fusion. If you have someone in your group who doesn't like sushi, there are plenty of other things on the menu to sample. The service is friendly and the speed of the food coming out was most satisfactory.
Came here to order takeout for lunch today. The waitress was friendly and gave us the menu to look at. Hubby and I both ordered bento boxes which came with salad and miso soup. I got sushi and tempura bento with 4 nigiris, 4 pc california roll and 5 pcs of tempura. The dressing for the salad was really good along with everything else. Hubby got the deluxe sushi bento and it came with a handcone, California roll and 5 nigiris. Both was around $12-13. Would have to try dine in next time.
Fresh sushi, some stuff is traditional which I like. I would have given these guys a 5 star as I am a long time customer. Where I'm giving them less a score is...they're starting to give lesser things. Their miso soup used to have more stuff in it, their bowls used to have more meat. So yeah I can't give them a 5 for that reason.
I personally like bringing friends and family here. Though one disadvantage they have is it's mostly a korean operated restaurant. So the waitresses don't speak great english and don't speak Japanese. Communicating with them is a struggle.
Sushi Hanami is a restaurant near MRU that has become a favourite for filling Japanese and Korean food. It's not so cheap but it's very affordable, considering the portion sizes. We ordered the vegetarian bento ($15) and a dolsot bibimbap ($12), both were pretty tasty! The restaurant is clean and neat, and tables are plenty. My one irk in the restaurant is the service; service is not the best, to put it simply. They usually won’t fill your glass unless you ask them. If you’re craving some Japanese food or Korean food for a moderate price, come by to eat!
a very quaint restaurant nestled in a pocket just northwest of mount royal university.
the restaurant decor has a very rustic, charming feel. the place itself is pretty small, so there aren't terribly many tables.
although i've yet to try their korean cuisine, i can say the japanese cuisine is good. the sashimi tastes fresh, you get good lot of food for what you order, and there's a lot of variety to order from because of the mixed menu. i definitely recommend grabbing a bento here for lunch. there's nothing in particular to write home about, but the quality is still solid.
as some bonuses, they serve miso soup appetizer, and a little yogurt drink for dessert! incredibly charming, and a very good boost to the experience, i'd say. will definitely be returning.
