Japonais Bistro

Excellent fusion Japanese food in Edmonton! Great drinks, sushi, appys and dessert. Came on a week night and it was packed so reservation is recommended. I really liked the premium nigiri plate which consist of 3 pieces of blue fin tuna (akami, chutoro and otoro) and 3 pieces of aburi nigiri, other than that, wagyu beef was also very good and melts in your mouth after cooking table side, save room for dessert! $$$$ slightly on the pricy side about 100 dollars per person spent including drinks and dessert.

Got the spinach gomae which tasted like sweet black sesame dessert dumplings except that instead of dough it’s with hot water rinsed spinach which tasted amazing. Chicken karaage on its own is amazing, the mayo and chili oil sauce is just okay I wish it came with something sour like a ginger yuzu sauce as standard but the karaage itself more than makes up for it. Dynamite roll is good for what it is. Pressed salmon sushi is amazing. Chill atmosphere. Will visit again.

Really nice place! Food was delicious and we had a great time there. We order cold Sake and it was amazing too. Staff was really nice too. We’ll be back soon.
