A great balance for lovers of teppan-style food and excellent sushi, Kinjo does both effortlessly without the usual teppan price.
You can sit at the sushi bar and pick your treats right off the often-refreshed sushi boat, particularly during peak dining hours. A comprehensive list allows you to choose small portions of cooked fare, (such as steak, chicken or seafood) at a reasonable price, as well as sushi selections.
For fans of yakiniku sauce (Japanese-style steak sauce) be sure to ask for a bowl of rice with a side of "Magic" sauce. Fans of the Japanese Village steak sauce will not be disappointed!
If you're lucky, Peter, the owner, will stop by your table to crack a joke or offer you one of his Japanese pearls of wisdom. As you prepare to leave, you will surely be offered your choice of either strawberry or chocolate Pocky...that is IF you are female!
Overall, I prefer this restaurant over any other of its kind in Calgary. I hope you will too!
