Elegant!
For my first time in a formal sushi restaurant, I was highly impressed by the decor and menu choices.
My friends and I ordered a large boat of sushi and enjoyed every moment of our meal.
Looking forward to coming again!

Wow on everything
June 06, 2014My client took us to dinner tonight. I live in Vancouver where we are overrun by many awesome sushi restaurants. The service was friendly and fast anticipating our needs and not being a bother. The place was spotlessly clean. The sashimi was served fresh with shrimp heads. I tried their $ 27.00 lobster roll once again fabulous presentation and the... more

fading from glory
April 17, 2014
We sushi and salmon; nothing special, even boring vanilla. Prices seemed high.
This place used to be great. It is now going downhill. There are much better Japanese restaurants in Edmonton, sorry to say.

Over priced and terrible customer service
January 10, 2014
I had a bad experience at this restaurant 10 years ago, but thought I give them another try since my friends wanted picked this place for our annual get together. We booked a booth, and they messed up on our reservation and tried to give us a table, but didn't even apologize.
After we got our drinks, they told us...

Not impressed at all
June 30, 2013The food is overpriced and tastes aweful. We will not return. Malted vinegar in the sunomono is just one example. The food overall was too salty & the rolls were soft rather than able to hold their form. Overall it was a huge disappointment.

Best Sushi in Edmonton
June 11, 2013I’ve been to Mikado so many times I couldn’t even count. This is by far the best sushi in Edmonton. The food is always fresh, on point with great flavour and quality and wonderful service to come along with it. I’ve never tried, or had a meal here that I’ve disliked. Being a sushi fanatic I was so pleased to... more

Superb Sushi
May 12, 2013
It is difficult to find a better Sushi place in Edmonton as aria2012 also claims.
The Sashimi is always top quality and well prepared. The presentation is excellent and a delight to eat. The service is prompt and always friendly.
I have had most things on the menu and nothing disappoints, however my favourite is the lunchtime Sashimi combo for...

Excellent sushi, friendly chefs
April 23, 2013The service is friendly, the chefs are entertaining and so talented, and the food is incomparable. The chirashi bowl is a fantastic deal, and the sashimi salad is a total winner. My favourite sushi place in Edmonton, bar none.

Not happy when trying to make reservation
April 19, 2013I tried to make a reservation for 2 but was told that I should just do a walk in as they would rather keep the tables for larger parties - last time we did a walk in we had to wait over 40 minutes - will have to find another shushi place to go to.

Don't do seafood? Go for teriyaki chicken
February 17, 2013I hate sushi and all seafood, but went to this restaurant anyways with a group. I ordered the teriyaki chicken, for lack of any more appealing options. To my surprise it was SO GOOD!! Best teriyaki I have ever tasted! I would be happy to accompany sushi lovers to this restaurant again!

December 10, 2012this restaurant seems to have an envious reputation. I'm not sure why. The last two times we went the food was poor and the service was poor. Other places in the same area have far better service and food with far less rush.

Top quality fish and authentic Japanese plates
July 18, 2012I've been eating at Mikado Downtown for the last 5 years. It's easily become my favorite simply because of the quality of fish that they use in there sushi and shasimi. The fish is always fresh and flavorful. The menu is authentic Japanese and isn't to daunting to make choices from like many other competitors. Make sure to order the... more

Real Japanese
May 27, 2012Our time in Edmonton was made better by discovering Mikado's. In our town, the Japanese restaurants are operated by non-Japanese; not that that diminishes their quality, but it's simply the authenticity factor. Mikado's has some fantastic delights and surprises. The presentation is a gift in itself, making the night more positive by the beauty of the food you're eating. This... more

Amazing Food

This has been a favourite restaurant for us for the last decade. The food is authentic, delicious and reasonably priced. The service at all three locations is superb and the staff is always friendly and helpful.
Be sure to try the Dragon Eyes and the Sushi Pizza!!

Lunch. Quick. Order. Food arrives. Oops, for 2/3 of us.
I wait almost 10 minutes more. Complications of a complex order? No, unexplained delay of a veggie Bento box on the Speedy Gotta Rush menu. 2/3 good is not good, and one yam tempura was mighty raw, hard as Hannah's heart. . Green salad was refreshed with misonnaise, avocado sushi...

Average food, good service
November 17, 2011Five of us went here for dinner. Food was just o.k., service was good. With shoes off floor was very cold for those people with long legs whose feet reached the floor. Chicken teriyaki was a good dish. BBQ shrimp was very good.

One of the best ACTUAL Japanese run restaurants
July 14, 2010Although Edmonton has many Japanese Restaurants, it has few run and managed by Japanese people. This is one of them. Although you may find the occasional server or sushi chef who is not Japanese, they are strictly trained and have been coached in the Japanese way which is quality and presentation before the money greed factor.

I don't understand the hype
January 28, 2010This place gets a lot of hype in Edmonton, and I don't understand why. I arrived at Mikado expecting an outstanding meal, understandably, and was disappointed. Nearly every piece of avocado in my dishes were brown...shocking for a sushi restaurant that must go through a ton of avocado each day. The Dragon Roll was really fantastic, but my other dishes... more

If you don't like Sushi Stay Away
December 16, 2009If you aren't a sushi lover stay away. Had the teriyaki chicken ( I know it's pretty boring) but it was by far the worst I've had. It was like 60% fat content and about 20 bucks. Tempura was okay but unmemorable. I've heard the sushi is decent but I can't speak from experience. I know Zen is great.

My family patronized the South Edmonton Common location recently. To sum up in one word - "this place is Awesome!" Make sure to ask for a Tatami room when making reservations. Although you can still hear the loudmouth next to you through the rice paper walls, you don't have to look at them while you eat.

We visited the one on the southside...and it was the best Japanese cuisine we had ever had. We tried the Dragon Eyes for an appetizer, my boyfriend had the single oysters, and we both had Bento Boxes.

Alberta's first Japanese restaurant, Mikado regularly turns up in first place on the local "Best of..." polls, and it's easy to see why. Bento boxes are wildly popular, with neatly compartmentalized portions of beef shogayaki, chicken yakitori, barbecued shrimp, salmon teriyaki, rice and salad. But the menu includes other traditional options as well as more modern inventions. The signature... more
