Boy - what a let down as I got a reco about this place from a someone who is of Japanese descent from Japan and works in Calgary. Waiting for a business associate in their lobby area, I thought at first that this place would be a great dining experience as some of the posted reviews were in Japanese from a Japanese magazine publication. Unfortunately, this place can best be described as comparable to the type of standard sushi one would find in a grab and go area of the deli section of a major supermarket that offers take out sushi.
Rolls of 4 pieces are small and being from the states did not quite understand why Kinjo does not offer more pieces (standard rolls - I'm talking about) while adding some more fish to each piece. Both my dining partner and I felt that the only roll that was worthy of a hand clap was their dragon roll.
Our server was great as was the manager who was overseeing the rate of how we wanted our dishes to come out. I thought that the greeter (MC) who came to everyone's table and introduced himself was a little over the top but hey - if one ever watches those crazy Japanese game shows that are on TV - it makes sense.
Two stars overall with one of the stars for service and one for the food. Sorry Kinjo but "that's how I roll"
