Ki Modern Japanese & Bar

1
120-308 4 Ave SW, Calgary AB T2P 0H7

One sexy, sumptuous sushi joint, Ki serves high-end sushi in comfort and style. Settle in at the lounge or at an intimate table in the restaurant, and order some of the finest sushi served in Calgary. Options include bento boxes and sushi burgers, but for a top-end sushi experience, try Ki’s signature plates. And absolutely ask for a sake recommendation.

Go Kakuryu! Get ‘em Goeido! Hurray for Hakuho! You may not know the stars of sumo by name, but you can still enjoy televised matches while you savour the namesake cuisine at this busy Fourth Street Southwest restaurant. Order by the piece, roll or cone, or try a bento box or sushi combo with all the punch of Japan’s national sport.

Goro & Gun

245-225 7th Avenue SW, Calgary AB T2P 2W3

In Scotia Centre, Goro + Gun serves the downtown’s best ramen bowls. Naturally, the place is busy at lunchtime, so reservations are recommended. The sushi menu is also a cut above, featuring a tight selection of rolls, nigiri and sashimi. Also try a beef, chicken or mushroom bento-box, all of which include lobster-California roll pieces.

Kabuku Restaurant

5
103-414 3 St SW, Calgary AB T2P 1R2

Perhaps surprisingly, there are not many good sushi eateries on the Plus 15. Ramen spot Goro + Gun is one, and Kabuku at the bottom of the Calgary Place escalators is another. Featuring booth, table and sushi-bar seating, this is a pleasant street-corner restaurant in which to enjoy a selection of sashimi, nigiri sushi and various rolls. As well, hot Japanese entrees include miso-marinated cod and Fujiyama Alberta strip loin steak. For celebratory meals, consult Kabuku’s list of chilled and warm sake.

The city’s pathway system is one of the longest in North America.
