Taiyo Japanese - Calgary

Was able to walk in without a reservation at 5:30 on a Friday evening. The staff were very friendly throughout the meal and had no problem making accomodations with the meal. All the sushi tasted fresh, nigiri, sashimi, and cone rolls. All the hot plates came out hot and stayed hot rather then cooling down quickly. They do have larger tables for bigger parties, but I would make a reservation for those as they do fill up quick after 6:00. Specialty rolls are more than the average sushi place here but they have plenty of other options if you wish to eat without coming up with a heavy bill.

I ordered from here because on Skip the Dishes, Kinjo raised their prices up $2 for all items and changed their online menu (less variety)..I chose Taiyo from their google reviews and it was a great choice! The prices were so much cheaper, the portion sizes were larger and the presentation of the food was great. All around I was very pleased with my order!

Local sushi in Symons area. Staff super friendly and menu well balance of hot and cold Japanese food. There are dinner combos for 2 or 4 people and priced nicely with a good mix of sushi, apps, soups, salad, meat and ice cream. Good for first time sushi eaters. Dining area is small with seating up to 35-50 people max. Lots of take out action and there is a sushi bar with a few stools. Very clean restaurant and recommend if you in surrounding area. On the pricy side but most sushi restaurants are in YYC.

Very good value for good food. I have tried their lunch and dinner menu and I'm always satisfied in every visit. I love their lunch combo with miso soup and salad. It's a bento box thats very filling and just costs $12+. I tried their vegetable ramen and beef ramen, it's perfect to warm you up this fall/winter season. The serving of the ramen is big enough to share for two! If the other person ordered another dish to share you'll feel super full already! Their dinner menu is also good though the combo of soup/salad/sushi is not available for dinner anymore. This is my Japanese spot and I'm so glad it's just 10 mins walk from my house! My go to for Japanese craving!

This restaurant is right by my house, so I decided to try it out since I love sushi! The restaurant itself is very nice and modern and the service was good. I got a variety of different rolls, gyoza, and some udon soup. They don't have all you can eat here, so it can get a bit pricey! The rolls however were very big, so they fill you up! I like my gyoza pretty crispy and the server told me they couldn't do that, so that was a little disappointing! The food though was all good with fresh tasting ingredients. I would come back since it's so close to home!
