My favorite sushi restaurant in the city. I highly recommend Sushi Ai to anyone!
Sushi has always been so fresh and tasted so wonderful!
Awesome service and a great atmosphere!
Sushi Ai is my absolute favourite place for sushi in Winnipeg. The service is always really good, the decor is beautiful and set the mood well, and the sushi is amazing every single time.
I recently went there for my birthday and I got my usual rainbow roll, then I also tried the evergreen and vegetable caterpillar roll. The rolls were bomb as usual and I would for sure get them all again (hopefully soon).
Really fast and friendly service. Sushi was reasonably priced and very good. Restaurant was clean and had a fresh and modern atmosphere. I would definitely go back again!
Great cozy place. Food great tasting and fresh. Great service. Clean bathrooms. Kids even tried sushi for their first time and actually ate them!!
Sushi Ai.
My No.1 go-to place for some good food. I'm a traveller, and I've been in every place of Canada. It's not enough to say this reataurant is the best sushi restaurant there is. And trust me, I've been to plenty in the country.
Not one sushi restaurant I've ever been to has such great interior and service. The chef is extra friendly and the sushi is such high quality. The prices are kind and the sushi is perfect sized for that good bite. Such a beautiful atmosphere and so professional. If only I didn't have to travel so much, I'd eat here three meals a day. I highly, highly recommend this place, you gotta eat here.
Went on a first date here, by recommendation of my date.
The quality of fish and everything was good. I like simple/traditional one-ingredient sushi, and the rolls were made as expected with nothing seeming out of place. The price vs size of rolls seemed like the rolls could be larger for the price. However considering the quality, decor of the restaurant and service, I would say this is a good restaurant to go to.
Sadly my date didn't transpire to a second date, however the restaurant itself was good that I would totally bring another here, or at least I plan to visit again.
Love this little gem in the South End! Been here many times and never disappointed! Service is great, and the sushi rolls are the perfect size to fit in your mouth! Highly recommend this place!
Sushi AI is one of my go to places when I'm in the mood for sushi. Their teriyaki beef is incredible too, I didn't even know that beef could taste so flavourful. Everyone there is very friendly and I've always had a great experience at Ai. Highly recommended!
One of my favorite sushi restaurants in the city. Service has always been friendly and quick, restaurant is clean with a great atmosphere and the rolls are delicious. I actually appreciate how small the rolls are in comparison to other sushi restaurants as I find them much more enjoyable to eat. They are also reasonably priced with a decent variety.
We always went to SushiN but tried this when SushiN was closed. This is now our sushi restaurant. All fresh, and great tasting. The tuna is always good. And the shrimp tempura is great.
I frequently eat here and absolutely love it. In addition to the delicious, excellent quality sushi, the staff is always so welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and cozy as it is a quiet, quaint spot. I highly recommend it to any sushi lovers. They also give extra sashimi when you order..what more can you ask for??
One of the best sushi places in Winnipeg! The only downside is they're closed Sunday's and Monday's. Phili rolls and octopus rolls are Awesome!
Sushi Ai-
10/10
Clean, beautiful interior.
Unbelievably cheap yet delicious food.
Best sushi restaurant in the city, no doubt.
One of my favorite places to go anytime, with anyone.
Friendly service.
Definitely recommend.
It's our first time here and we will be back ASAP !!! Sushi was fresh and reasonably priced. Staff was friendly and food came quickly :)
Iam a fan of sushi so everytime theres a good review in urbanspoon ill go to that place and experience the real service of the restaurant as a i went to sushi ai the service was very fast the staff was very friendly they accomodate us right away., but the only thing i dont like is the menu!!!!
As you see they have a menu in urbanspoon wchi is different from what they have in restauranf the prices are different. If someone can fixed that problem so the other person looking to the menu would not be dissappointed., coz you were expecting to pay $3.75 for agedeshi tofu but they charge you for $4.75.
I absolutely love this place! I have been coming faithfully for about four years now, and the sushi is just as good every time. When I order to go it's always ready and fresh. One time they made me three huge party platters based on my $100 dollar max. They even put the sauces on the side so it would stay fresh. Every time me and my boyfriend dine in, the chef comes out to make sure everything tastes okay. Always a very positive and helpful attitude! Always clean! Always impressed! Very reasonable pricing for the amount of sushi they give you! I admire that the sushi rolls are not all rice, and have lots of fillings! I have been to many sushi places, and this is by far my favourite. Anyone giving this place a bad review, you seriously must of just had a bad day.
Nice comfortable surroundings, fairly attentive staff but most dished lacked basic seasoning. Tempura veg without a pinch of salt were watery and tasteless, fish all had an odd bland watery texture as well...almost like everything was flash frozen then quick thawed in water. Disappointing given the expectation set by the attention to detail in the surroundings and food presentation.
Excellent. Phoned ahead for pick up food was ready when I arrived. Sushi was awesome, rolls were awesome. Very good value will definitely be back.
Yummy!. By far the best, freshest sushi in South Winnipeg. Very friendly staff, and I always get a great big thank you from the chef when I leave. The rolls are perfectly sized and hold together well. I wish they were open Sundays!
Best sushi in St. Vital! Take out is fresh. Even the shrimp tempura was great once we got it home. Definitely a new favorite.
Above Average. I went to Sushi Ai for lunch after reading all of the glowing reviews. We decided to order five rolls in order to get a decent cross section of the menu items offered. The woman who took our order was very polite and friendly as well as informative. The restaurant has a lovely ambiance to it, and was not what I expected based on the appearance of the strip mall from outside. The prices were on par with those of other sushi establishments in the city. The rolls were fresh tasting with a nice balance of ingredients. I wouldn't describe them as amazing, which is what I was expecting after reading reviews, but they were better than average. Sushi Ai is the best sushi restaurant I've been to in the St. Vital area and I would likely return if I were in the neighbourhood.
Wonderful! Good service, food was served quickly, food was hot and was the best, freshest tasting sushi that I've had in Winnipeg, and I will totally go back again, and the prices are good for the quality of food. There were only two things I would change. The size of the seating area is tiny and super cramped if you sit along the Window and the water tastes bad. Other than that it's amazing. I think they should expand as they had to turn ppl away for being full. Seriously check it out!
Good food, good place. Good food. Nice environment. Comfy chairs. All around good place to eat .
Best in the City. As a snobby former-Vancouverite, I've long looked for a solid place for sushi in Winnipeg for a good price; that's Sushi Ai.
All menu items are great, fish is fresh and sashimi is great size and never frozen. Rolls are great size, plenty of fish and just the right amount of rice. Salmon, Tuna, Negitoro, Chicken Teriyaki Maki, Yam Maki, Dynamite.. really I don't think I've ever had something I didn't like here. If you'd like to try something new, Takoyaki is great here.
Bill for two shouldn't be more than $40, (and I eat a LOT when we go.) Friendly prompt service, nice ambience with comfy seating. Only problem for me is it's a bit of a drive, but that's not their fault obviously.
Highly recommended!
Wonderful! Recommended!. Amazing sushi, service and atmosphere! I love going here with my girlfriend! It really is a wonderful place and in my opinion is the best sushi restaurant in the area. The prices are good, service and sushi is great!
Sushi Ai is now very special to my girlfriend and I and I STRONGLY RECOMMEND this restaurant to everyone! I only wish they were open on Sundays though (hint, hint... lol).
Amazing Sushi + Excellent Customer Service. If you are in the St. Vital area, this is the best place to get your sushi fix! Not only will you get delicious Japanese dishes, the customer service is phenomenal. The prices are very reasonable, too.
Personally, I am a huge fan of their benidon. Their miso soup is probably one of the best I have ever had.
DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!
Best sushi in winnipeg! Food is always fresh, great pricing. If you havent tried it i suggest you give them a try, youll be satisfied
I was looking for a good and cheap sushi in St Vital and Sushi Ai had good reviews. Everyone was right; the quality was good and the prices were reasonable. While we were there, many people came in picking up their take out. I would recommend this place and I plan on going frequently.
Awesome sushi for an awesome deal!. Became one of my favourite go-to place. Even if you get a take out the presentation is still wonderful! Never skimpy on the ingredients and it is so flavorful. They make a terrific--no wait, OUTSTANDING philidelphia roll. It is my favourite in the city (honestly you won't regret trying it!) Their party tray is a very good value as some people have already mentioned (specially if you are a maki type of person). Expect a similar menu offering that an average sushi restaurant has, but it's the taste that makes it that much better. Love the sauces on their rolls because its not too much or too little and isn't overpowering. Definitely worth a visit.
Great quality and portion sizes. Highly recommend!
I was quite impressed with this restaurant! The prices are decent, especially the party trays, in which a small tray gives you 7 rolls for $28.00. The rolls were decent and were very similar to Sushi N's (not sure if they are sister companies). The only problem I found was that their tempura was quite greasy. Overall, a place I wouldn't continually come back and go to, but if I was in the area, I would go here instead of Sushi N.
Compares to Vancouver!. I am from Vancouver and have eaten sushi allover the place. I have a tried a few sushi restaurant in Winnipeg and Sushi Ai has me comin back for more and more!
The prices are reasonable (for the prairies) and they are versatile if you want to switch things around a bit in the bento boxes unlike most other places i have experienced.
The only negative i have to say is that sometimes it feels as though the chef is staring and watching you eat a little too closely...but definitely recommend it!
Best Sushi and Surprisingly Good Price. This sushi restaurant has just opened, but this is one of the best sushi restaurants in Winnipeg. Sushi served at this restaurant makes your mouth and eyes happy. I strongly recommend you to go and try. The price is also relatively cheep, compared to other sushi restaurants in the city. People there are very kind and professional. Please don't hesitate to go. Enjoy the food!!!!
One of our favourite go to sushi places in Winnipeg! Definitely bang for your buck in terms of quality and price, this place never disappoints and is always consistently good.
Visited Saturday for lunch, started off with shrimp tempura which is your average tempura nothing exceptional or bad about it, then had tuna and salmon sashimi which was good but would have preferred larger cuts of fish, then we had some fatty tuna, red tuna, salmon, fatty salmon and unagi nigiri which were all very good! They make very good sushi rice.
To finish things off we had a Maple roll which was good but the mango on it was a bit too tart for my taste. Overall Sushi Ai never fails to satisfy our sushi itch.
Just hands down the best sushi East of Vancouver. Such wonderful presentation, flavors, and options. The price cannot be matched.
This is really the best sushi in Winnpeg, good prices, such a good service, very cozy resturant, everything is so delicious! I usually go there at least once a month and always happy with them. Would recommend for sure!
We have been here a couple times, I do enjoy dining in but we have gotten take out the last couple times obviously due to Covid. I'm not impressed with the spicy mango shrimp...not gonna lie Wasabi does it the best, but everything else I had was good.
First time ordering sushi at Sushi Ai. The other sushi place we usually pick up from is closed on Sundays. We were pleasantly surprised by our order. We ordered their largest party platter with some veggie and yam tempura. The party platter had a good variety of rolls to choose from. It is actually better than the platter we get at the other sushi place. It would be good to know if you had an option of switching some rolls for other faves we would prefer. Next time. We were very happy with their tempura. The yam tempura is a fave and happy that it was a large portion. Food came packed neatly and looked as good as it tasted. We will order again and when Covid restrictions end have dine in experience. Small dining restaurant with lots of parking in front. The staff were friendly and informative when we ordered.
It had been over a year since I last ate here. They have made some really nice changes since then. They got some new chairs, which are very comfortable! The food was amazing! I think they have made some good improvements here. The presentation of the food is really nice, the portions are good, and it is reasonably priced. Some sushi places feel quite expensive for what you get, but you can get a nice selection of sushi for a good price. Service was also really good. Overall a really good experience with a nice, relaxing environment inside. Highly recommend.
Wonderful choice for sushi! Price wasn't terrible and food was fantastic and fresh. They also accommodated a large order.
