Just off main street in downtown Canmore is this little gem of a sushi restaurant. While intimate, the dining room seems spacious with both high and low tables and plenty of natural light pouring through large windows. In the open kitchen the chef creates tasty Japanese cuisine including specialties like the ‘Three Sisters’ outside rolls each piled high with salmon, ahi poke and shrimp salad to represent Canmore’s iconic triple peak mountain. Order off the menu or pick dishes from the buffet, where ready-to-eat sushi and appetizers await and plates are colour coded based on price.
