This cozy yet vibrant restaurant serves a thoughtfully curated menu that showcases a rich variety of traditional and contemporary Japanese flavors, expertly crafted to satisfy every craving.

The highlight at Sushi Nara lies in its impressive assortment of sushi rolls and Japanese classics. Diners rave about signature rolls like the Payday Roll and Red Dragon Roll, which burst with fresh, delicate flavors balanced by bold, spicy accents. The Salmon Sashimi is a standout—slices so tender they almost melt on your tongue, revealing the freshest quality fish. For those who enjoy heartier fare, dishes like the Salmon Teriyaki Box and Beef Teriyaki bring savory comfort, with perfectly grilled, juicy meats served alongside crisp salads and steaming rice.

Vegetarian guests are also thoughtfully catered to with options such as the Vegetarian Bento Box paired with Yam Roll Tempura and Gomae, or the delightful Veggie Bowl bursting with fresh textures and umami-packed seasonings. For a taste of variety, the assorted tempura and Chicken Katsu offer crunchy, flavorful bites that speak to the mastery of Japanese cooking techniques. And if you’re looking to share, their Party Trays, like Tray A and Tray B, present an enticing spread of rolls, nigiri, and sashimi — an ideal centerpiece for group dining or celebrations.

The dining atmosphere at Sushi Nara exudes warmth and intimacy, with a modest number of tables providing a sense of exclusivity while allowing for attentive, personalized service. Guests often share how servers like Mei make visits feel special through their kind and accommodating approach, turning each meal into a memorable event.

    You must visit Sushi Nara. The chicken garage is juicy and delicious, the spicy tuna melts in your mouth, everything has lots of flavour and the presentation are beautiful. Our server, Mei, was so nice, attentive and accommodating. It made the whole experience enjoyable. Excellent job!!!

    Food is always really good. Miso comes to your table hot, my favourite place for miso. Lots of options for rolls, and lots of food in bento boxes. It can get busy, that’s just how good they are!!

    Went after Castle fun park. Food and services are great. Space is not big, there are about 8 tables but no waiting for lunch, bathrooms were clean too. The only downside was the water they serve smell tap water too much I could not even drink. At least I wish they serve filtered water.

    Great food, I'm a vegetarian (not by choice, medical reasons, pku) and they have Great vegetarian options here. Quality of food is great, portion sizes are good. Good atmosphere and servers are friendly. Good place for a meeting as it is not super loud either.

    Our favourite sushi place. Decent pricing with larger proportions. The sushi could be rolled a bit tighter so it does not fall apart easily, but the large size could be the culprit too. Quality of freshness is great as well.

    My husband and I visited twice in two days. The first day for a lunch combo and the second for a bowl and sushi sashimi combo. Both were fantastic and filled us up. I spilled my water and the waitress was so nice about it and remembered us the next day because of it.. Mei was amazing and kind. definitely recommend coming here!
