| - The short version? Go, enjoy some of the finest sushi in town (they have absolutely no fear in running out, even around dinner time, which means super-fresh sushi), the most fun staff (especially Aki, who is one of the friendliest Itamae that I have ever met in my life) and the most modern in decor.
The long version? Truthfully, As far as sushi in Calgary goes, you will be hard pressed to find a restaurant that is all in all better. IchiRock brings sushi that results in art, savory food and excellent service to Calgary. Some people I know have complained that you sometimes have to repeat yourself a couple of times for the servers, since English is not their first language I do not mind! Especially considering I never manage to have servers understand me the first time when I say "Asahi"...
I always get the spider roll here, always! It is easily the best I have had this side of the pacific, a must in my books. As for everything else? I will repeatedly go back, for everything else. From the creative textures and flavors of the appetizers to the quality and portion size of the toro, I cannot complain about anything.
As far as I am concerned, five stars describes it. All in all, I find no real room for improvement in a market flooded with sushi restaurants, including many good competitors.
