I'm always up for trying different sushi places.
There is also a new all you can eat place in Calgary, outside of sushi ichiban and sumo, isn't there?

Alright, just got back, so here goes.
We ordered
Assorted sashimi
appetizer tempura
3 rolls -
avocado/crab meat with fresh eel
tuna/salmon/sweet potato tempura
salmon with tuna tataki roll
Sashimi - usual fare of tuna/salmon/yellowtail/surf clam and shrimp
The tuna and yellowtail weren't fresh, pretty blah. The salmon was ok. Surf clam is surf clam and shrimp is shrimp, not awesome but not bad.
I would not order sashimi from them.
Tempura - We saw the guy make the batter fresh and fry the tempura. The tempura was good. Would order it again.
Rolls - Avocado/crab meat with fresh eel was awesome! basically a California roll with eel on top. (shredded crab)
salmon with tuna tataki. Not so awesome, the same non fresh tuna was used, so you could definitely taste that.
salmon/tuna/tempura roll. It was decent, couldn't taste the stale tuna. Maybe a new cut? came with a special sweet/hot sauce that looked like fish sauce because it had carrots in it. Was a nice change of pace. It was call the refreshing roll and it was refreshing.
So overall, I wouldn't go back because the fish wasn't fresh.
But the 1 roll that was good, was really really good. The tempura was excellent.
So maybe it was an off day? Caught the end of the fish stock? maybe they get their fish on thursdays? Who knows.
Pricing is cheap and portions are large.
