Watari

“ If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! A group of us (4/Adults & 2/Kids) drove out from Calgary and a friend recommended this place. There was so many different food choices, it came out super fast, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious! The owner even came over to check and see how our meal was half way through so the place felt very welcoming. It also came with complimentary chocolate fondue which the kids loved and $5.00 draft which the adults liked. We will definitely come here the next time we are in Edmonton again! ”

“ Came for dinner , did the all you can eat with a friend and it was fabulous! Many dishes with tons of flavour and different variations of meats/sushi to select. The staff were so friendly, very fast to bring our food out and so attentive to refill our beverages, as well as remove any dirty plates from our table. ”

“ Today we visited this restaurant for the first time. The food was served very quickly, which pleasantly surprised us. The staff was welcoming, the owner personally came up to us several times to make sure that we liked everything. The food was delicious and the portions were decent. Also a pleasant surprise was the chocolate fondue, which our child really liked. We will definitely come back here again. ”

“ This place was soooo good! Sushi was delicious! I don’t know what the bad reviews are about cause everything was amazing including the service. We ordered a lot is sashimi and all was fresh! Servers were never annoyed or rude. Busy, yes, but annoyed.. no! I think people need to realize when it’s all you can eat it gets busy, the servers are trying to keep up! Tip was on the bill but told to us in advance and well worth it!!! ”

“ Our go-to spot for all you can eat, the food always comes quickly and delicious! The beef teriyaki and pork cutlet are amazing! The sashimi is always fresh and the vibes are great. Good for a larger group but make a reservation, for smaller groups we’ve never had to wait too long ”

“ Watari is a fantastic hidden gem tucked away on the corner of Jasper Ave in Edmonton. This all-you-can-eat spot delivers on every front—from quality to service to atmosphere. The service is impressively fast and friendly, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Despite being a busy spot, the staff keeps things running smoothly without missing a beat. The facilities are spotless, which adds to the overall dining experience. It’s clear that cleanliness is a priority here, and it shows in both the dining area and the food presentation. Speaking of food—everything tastes great. The menu offers a wide variety of fresh and flavorful options, and each dish is consistently well-prepared. Whether you're a sushi lover or into hot dishes, you'll find something to enjoy. If you're looking for a reliable all-you-can-eat experience in downtown Edmonton, Watari is definitely worth checking out. ”

“ Watari offers a decent all you can eat sushi experience with a wide selection of rolls, nigiri, sashimi, and cooked items like tempura and teriyaki. The variety on the menu is great for groups with different tastes, and the food generally comes out fresh and nicely presented. That said, the quality can be hit or miss depending on how busy they are. Some dishes are clearly made with care, while others feel rushed or inconsistent. The service is usually efficient, though at times it can be slow or inattentive when the restaurant is full. Ordering is done through a tablet, which is convenient, but sometimes items don’t make it to the table ,so you may need to follow up. The ambiance is casual and family friendly. It’s not a fancy spot, but it works well for a quick sushi fix or a group dinner. If you’re looking for top-tier sushi, this isn’t it , but for an all you can eat place, it’s fairly reliable and reasonably priced. ”
