This is a real Japanese sushi restaurant. Food is excellent, with beautiful presentation, and service is superb. Chef Shige's wife is always courteous and kind. If dining in, make sure to have reservations, as this location has only around 20 seats. But I noticed they are always busy with takeout.
Sushi Shige is absolutely delicious and fresh. There are plenty of options for vegetarians. I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend!
Feels like a low end sushi shop when I walk in but the food was amazing. I had omakaze for takeout and it was fresh and good. My kids had udon and salmon terriyaki, both were very good. They use traditional ways to make the broth and your taste the fish in the soup. The only not so good feedback was the tempura roll that came with the omakaze has too much mayo and rice.
The best Sushi in Halifax!
You can have authentic Edomae sushi which is provided by Japanese chef here!
There is also Canadian style sushi.
Sushi which is made by Shige-san is not just a dish.
It's kind of an art I guess!
Definitely come back to this place :)
Got the sashimi dinner and it was nice. Fresh fish. Delicious.
Ordered the Omakase dinner for $70 and it was well worth the experience! The taste, portions and presentation of the offerings were superb! Even the fruit dessert dish at the end was delicious! Thank you for introducing me to sea eel and for such a lovely time.
I've been coming for years now - still the best sushi I've found on the penninsula. The owners and staff are super friendly as well. It is probably worth booking a table in advance if you want to make sure you can go!
THE most authentic, exquisite sushi by master chef Shige. The Chirashi is fresher, better price point and most variety than Chirashi in all of North America. The chef inspired Omakase is second to none. Highly recommend this sushi experience.
The food was delicious, make no mistake. The broth in the udon was amazing, the Inari and sweet potato was so delicate flavourful. However, the place gets 4 stars out of 5 because of portion size. I don't know if I'm just too used to North Americanized sushi portions which might be larger but this seemed like a small roll even with 6 pieces. Definitely delicious but don't come for a massive feast unless you want to pay premium dollar.
WOW. I wish I had discovered this place sooner! Incredible sushi, best I've ever had. Blows every sushi place downtown Halifax out of the water. I will be back asap.
I recommend the fresh tuna sashimi, sushi rice, eel cucumber salad, and edamame.
