| Globefish Sushi & Izakaya www |  | Japanese | Informal | The menu is extensive with lots of pictures for the uninitiated. There are many traditional favourites along with some of the more trendy recent concoctions like California rolls and even some local specialities such as Flames and Alberta rolls. The portions are smaller than at some other restaurants, BUT they are also less expensive. So just order a bit more. The food was well prepared and presented with an emphasis on milder flavours. Good vegetarian selection.

| Hana Sushi |  | Japanese | Informal | This popular Fourth Street eatery serves a wide variety of Japanese food. However, we found that none of the selections really stood out from the crowd, and the batter on the tempura was a little heavy and soggy. | 1803 - 4 St. SW 403 229-1499 | Lunch M to F Dinner daily | |||||
| Sakana Grill www | | Japanese | Informal | For years this restaurant has been a magnet for business people on their noon hour. The selection is wide, mostly Japanese with a little Chinese (egg drop soup) and other (mud pie) thrown into the mix. The sushi boats continue to circle on their endless journey, and the teppan yaki grills continue to sear to bring the patrons good business lunches. And who notices if the dumplings are a little soggy and the tempura batter is a bit heavy? | 116 - 2 Ave. SW 403 290-1118 | ||||||

| Sushi Kawa |  | Japanese | Informal | The décore is simple ecclectic with a touch of Japanese, but the food is Japanese all the way. And you may even get to watch sumo wrestling on TV as you eat. This help you keep the calories in mind. We visited Sushi Kawa when it first opened, then again recently, and unfortunately the service has slipped a little, but we hope will be back on track soon.
