Hey Ash Does Food ! Thanks for visiting us and leaving such a thorough review!! In Ashley's words: ($11.80) - This dish tasted just as smokey as it was presented, which I loved because smokey flavor is so good. The tuna was delicious, and so was the salad and sauces beneath it.... ($13.30) - The beef in this dish is so tender it MELTS in your mouth. Just like the Tuna Tataki, the salad beneath it was also very appetizing. ($13.30) - Definitely the best bang for your buck AND so very savoury, this udon bowl is a hit. It comes simmering hot (so wait a few min before eating ) and it's a big serving. The sauce was nice and creamy and the pieces of real bacon were not overwhelming. I feel like I could eat this all the time ($13.80) - If you don't usually like ramen, try this one . You'll definitely like it. The bowl comes with a delicious marinated egg and the soup and noodles were also worth every bite. 7212 Macleod Trail SE Calgary, Alberta Back of @sho.sushi #ajitoyyc #ajito #yyccocktails #japanesefood #cocktails #YYC #Calgary #datenight #happyhour #sake #sapporo #japan #yychappyhour #seafoodlover #wine #bartender #yyceats #yycdrinks
