September 6, 2019 Yuk Petri

Discover Restaurants offering the best Japanese food in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Looking out over the city of St. John's, you may be reminded of a mini San Francisco (minus the cable cars). St. John's provides the ideal balance between nature and nightlife, from the East Coast Trail and its stunning scenery to the colorful entertainment district along George Street. Although it's the largest city in Newfoundland, the vibe is still very small-town. You'll feel welcome in the City of Legends!

This little spot is a hidden gem of the west end of St. John’s. The gentleman who made the sushi was incredibly nice and the sushi was fresh, delicious and a generous serving size. The decor is very cool! Wooden bench style with Japanese cushions. I highly recommend!

Sun Sushi

Reviewed By backpacker31

Let me preface by saying, this is NOT a buffet-style sushi restaurant. Rather, the all-you-can-eat option is basically pay-as-you-eat, which is a nice alternative. Upon arrival, I perused the menu which offered a large variety of la carte dishes (appetizers, mains, sushi, sashimi, rolls, tempura, soups, etc.). I opted for the all-you-can-eat option for around $30CAD which allowed me to sample a wide variety of items. I ordered several sushi rolls, many containing salmon, which I found to be somewhat tough - not what I would have expected from St. John's. Also, the sushi rice was not as sticky as it should have been, therefore leading to my rolls falling apart upon being picked up with chopsticks. Service was on the slow side as there was clearly not enough staff to handle the large volume of patrons.

Sushi was acceptable, but not as spectacular as you might hope given how close St John’s is to the ocean. Prices were reasonable. Selection of vegetarian rolls was very nice. Service was terrible and made it hard to enjoy the food. If this aspect of the dining experience is important to you, go elsewhere.

Basho

Reviewed By leaftreader

We have lived in Vancouver for 15 years and have never encountered food so delicious and elegantly prepared as Tak's menu at Basho. The sushi is world-class, and there are also many other entrees and side-dishes that will delight any palate. Tak creates his offerings from only the highest-quality, freshest ingredients. The service is attentive but unobtrusive. The wine list is excellent, and Basho's mohitos are to die for. We visit St. John's at least once a year, and Basho is top on our list for fine dining.

Bad Bones Ramen

Reviewed By Twofunnewfs

I was looking forward to finally going here but, honestly, not impressed. The wait staff, while knowledgeable and attentive, forgot food at our table. The menu is very odd and difficult to know what you’re actually ordering. I ordered the pork and, while the pork back was amazing (hard to screw up pork back), the rest of the meat was bland and tasteless. Presentation was awesome; atmosphere, very nice. Food? I’ll never pay $17 plus for a bunch of salty broth garnished with seaweed and literally, Ramen.

Sushi Island

Reviewed By hungrygirl97

They have a variety of items on the menu for very reasonable prices ($10-15 range). Our table had the ramen (excellent), udon noodles soup, and one of the sushi combos. Everything tasted great. Service was also excellent. Would definitely return if we are in the area again.
