We have been frequent customers at Honba for years. In fact, after each of our children were born at St.Boniface my first request was sushi from Honba! We have never had a problem, service is always reliable, prices decent and sushi great! The size of their rolls are generous too.
Excellent place to pick up sushi. The Avocado rolls have a very generous amount of perfectly ripened avocado. I stopped in here several times while having treatment at St Boniface Hospital and each time my order was prepared quickly and deliciously. There’s not much seating and all tall chairs, so I would not dine in here, but excellent for takeout.
I work at the hospital and I always come here for lunch when I feel like it. Overall, great experience and service. Never been unsatisfied with quality of sushi. I would say order ahead of time if your planning to eat in because there may be others waiting in line with you when you arrive. Usually only two people working. Husband and wife, I believe.
Was at the hospital and needed a quick bite to eat for lunch. The sandwich shop next door was utterly packed so I decided to give Honba a try. Am I ever glad I did!
This place is mainly counter service with only a few bench and a couple of tables to sit at. Service is super quick and they really try to accommodate. Communication is somewhat difficult, but they make it all up with effort.
I came in and tried the salmon bowl. This is the first time I've had a salmon don with so much stuff in it. I was leery at first, but the flavors worked together very well. I will definitely be back to try something else on their menu.
I placed a takeout order on their website. They had to call me to confirm the order, which happened in about 8 minutes, and the website said within 10, so that is good. They also said the order would be ready in 20 minutes, which it was, right on time.
I ordered 2 rolls, bakudan tuna and sumo, and salmon nigiri. The sumo was really tasty and fresh. The bakudan was excellent as well. The only complaint on that is the hot sauce stuck to the takeout lid on a few pieces. The salmon nigiri was a perfectly made, 2 bite size, with very fresh salmon. The texture and flavour of the fish was as good as I've ever had.
Overall, the value was very good for what I ordered, staff was friendly, restaurant was clean, and my order was ready within the timeframe they provided.
good food, slow service. the sushi was pretty good, pretty typical. but it took forever to get pur food. would definetly recommend although I'd recommend ordering in advance
Deluxe Platter. I ordered the deluxe platter for a birthday party- it was so good. Fresh, tasty and looked beautiful, There was five of us and we ate the whole tray, although we shouldn't have- we ended up very full. I would definitely recommend them and will order again.
We ordered for pick up an assortment of rolls, sushi, tempura and miso soup.
It was very good.
I can tell the restaurant makes an effort above and beyond other sushi take out restaurants in winnipeg based on two simple, but important facts:
1) they trimmed the tempura takeout box so that steam can escape and keep the fresh tempura from going soggy. Instead, theirs was deliciously warm and CRISPY!
2) They FRY the tempura on the bakudan roll. Other restaurants will simply sprinkle raw tempura (basically like raw bread crumbs) over the rolls. Honba went the little extra step and did it properly.
Everything else was tasty and high quality as expected, but the fact they made the extra effort very few winnipeg sushi restaurants take to improve quality means we will ONLY ORDER FROM HONBA from now on.
Go for the lunch special since it's close to work! So good and fresh!
Best Sushi place for a quick lunch. I have been to this restaurant many times for lunch. Service has ALWAYS been friendly. Not everyone who works there speaks English as a primary language so sometimes patients is a virtue. Price point wise I'd say the are about average within the city but I would say quality and freshness puts them up at the top. Chirachi Donburi and Sunomono salad are a must try!
This place is more of a take out restaurant. There are some tables with communal seating. They have a hot water dispenser serving barley tea that is complimentary.
We ordered an assortment of rolls to take home as well as 2 salads and a miso soup.
I felt everything was good. The rice isn't the best, but most sushi places in Winnipeg aren't... The fish to rice ratio is much better here than at other restaurants. I also like that they cut their rolls smaller so it's easier to eat.
It's one of the better ones in the city. Not a lot of high end stuff but if you want a solid experience with the Staples, this is a good choice. Pricing is reasonable for what they were offering (not expensive, not cheap).
Service was pretty much non existent. They were polite but do not speak much English.
Always take delivery from the store. In my mind this s top1 sushi in wpg. Love it. And always patience. Offer me ex piece salmon Nigiri. Tasty. Love Love love☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
I thought I knew good sushi for decades. I tried this place today and I was in heaven! This sushi melts in your mouth with freshness. Everything was packaged nicely, and they even added a mandarin orange and a candy to the delivery order! Don't pass on this place! Expensive but worth it. Keep up the good quality!
Had my fair share of sushi from a bunch of different restaurants and thought I had my favourite locked down... until I tried Honba Sushi. I swear it was some of the best sushi I have ever had! The nigiri and rolls were so flavourful, and quite generous portions for the price. They had a lot of great Vegetarian options and also some really different roll combinations which I liked. Highly recommend trying this spot out if you are wanting to try something different!

High quality sushi for a reasonable price, the service is fast and prompt for takeout orders. The food was ready when we got there and was exactly as ordered.
Place your order on their website for the best prices.
I have to love a place that enforces 'no sanitizer no sushi' policy, I know they will respect my safety.
This place deserves respect.
Order it from SkipTheDishes and it is really delicious
Also it have Toro to order
Will try it again:)
Best chopped scallop roll and salmon/fatty salmon nigiri I’ve had in a long time. Melt in your mouth and very hearty pieces. This is going to become my new go-to sushi place
Some of the best sushi in town!
