    Salmon nigiri & wild rice California rolls

    Been a full year since I was in Cochrane last. This is still the best sushi place I have found anywhere and I travel all over the country for work. Salmon nigiri is fresh and well cut, the wild rice California rolls are truly like nothing else! So rich and flavourful a definite must try.

    For a smaller place like Cochrane, I was surprised to find a pretty good Japanese place. I had the Poke Bowl. The presentation was outstanding. The food was fresh and flavourful. The portion size was just right. The amount of sauce was just right. I also liked how the place was very clean and tidy, with friendly employees.

    This is the most amazing Japanese restaurant I have ever come across in western Canada thus far. The food is crafted with the care of true masters . The saki is amazing ( I had the moon drop pear). I would go here anytime I want to enjoy a culinary masterpiece.

    Beautiful decor, tranquil and relaxing. Service is excellent, prices a little on the high side or would have given five stars

    Japanese-for-beginners in Cochrane. Very safe menu. Very muted flavours. Nothing too adventurous here. Kinda like a fancy Edo. Meh.

    *Late review* Came here at the ending of last year…read more Walking around the Banff town and heard good things about this place on social media and we saw the line was long outside so maybe there was some hype? The inside is very small and everyone sits around the conveyor belt. It is first come first serve so plan ahead if you wanna beat the lunch/dinner rushes. We went around 1:30 and it took us maybe ~40 minutes to get seated for a party of six (we didn't want to be separated). There is a sushi chef in the middle who makes the sushi right in front of you which is pretty entertaining. As for ordering, you can either ask the chef or your server. They are always putting different things on the conveyor belt so there is always an assortment of sushi to try. We weren't a fan of the sashimi but we did order a lot of the rolls. Their spicy ahi is different from what we're used to - it's just plain ahi with a drop of sriracha on top. Our favorite roll was probably the deep fried shrimp roll and California roll. You can't go wrong with that. We ordered the seaweed salad and potato croquette a couple of times. Price wise it's pretty expensive for the amount and quality that you get. All the food on the menu ranges from about $4.95-$7.95. IMO you're paying for the experience - sushi chef in front of you, conveyor belt, plates on a sushi train. There is one server for the restaurant because the seating area is so small, but the staff in general is pleasant. It's OK but hits the spot if you want a little sushi fix.

    Ok, so I was a bit apprehensive about this place because of it being "revolving sushi"; however, I…read morewas pleasantly surprised! You won't find an extensive menu with lots of fancy rolls, but you can get some delicious salmon, yellowtail, or tuna. They also make shrimp tempura rolls, California rolls, and desserts. My favorite was the atomic mayo tuna, so good! My husband enjoyed the scallop. The staff here is so friendly. It's a tiny spot, so depending on when you go you might have to wait. If you are craving sushi this a great place to grab a quick bite!

Our server, Rob, was incredibly attentive and friendly--plus he gave some great menu recommendations. The decor was beautiful, and we were seated in a circle around a fireplace. Alberta Beef Tataki, 5/5 -- Not a huge portion but we savored every bite. This was incredible. Maui Wowie Roll, 4/5 -- So delicious, but could've used more ahi tuna King Salmon Sashimi, 5/5 -- No notes, this was amazing Spicy King Salmon Press, 4/5 -- Loved the red miso flavor. Would've liked more salmon on top of the rice. Smoky Ginger Margarita, 4/5 -- Great tartness and not overly smoky. Great drink!

Good sized cuts. Lobster Fried rice Small portion - however rich with flavor. Needs more lobster. Maui Wowie Roll Glazed with a nice green sauce. Above average. Black garlic Broccolini Sounds better than it is. I thought the stalks were undercooked and too crunchy. The garlic toppings are amazing but I've had better overall. This was a tough one to place between 3-4 stars but im rounding up because of the extremely cool vibe. That's all.
