Sushi restaurants are a dime a dozen here in Winnipeg, but what really sets one apart from the other? Is it the quality of the fish? The types of rolls offered or some other factor? This is a question that we may have an answer to in 2023! We’ve compiled a list of the top 5 sushi restaurants in town.
BluFish (Bannatyne)
If you’re looking for the best sushi in winnipeg, blufish is what you’re looking for.
Tucked away in a small street near the corner of Main, at the heart of Winnipeg’s Exchange District, blufish is a gem of a restaurant.
If you want to experience amazing food, this is the place to be. The interior is simple – clean and elegant. The service is friendly and efficient but not overbearing. The menus are easy to read and although it is not a cheap restaurant, you will definitely get your money’s worth.
Our favourite dish in BluFish is without a doubt the Ben Signature Roll that’s topped with an incredible smoked salmon.

Sushi Kuni (Provencher)
Another great sushi place to try if you find yourself in the St. Boniface area (just off the Provencher Bridge).
This small place is not as “fancy” is the other places, and with more down-to-earth prices, you can enjoy some great sushi, without losing your pants.
Right now, during the latest Omicron wave, the place is only open for take-away and you can order their great sushi on Skip.
Our favourite over there must be the Hurricane Roll with spicy tuna and avocado.

Lastly, in the heart of St. James, just across from Polo Park, you can find Sushi Cushi.
This comfy, unassuming sushi bar serves traditional dishes, as well as some modern and contemporary takes on sushi.
If you want to try something different, we recommend their SOS Cow Roll a California roll topped with seared beef tenderloin.
With fair prices, you’ll got your money’s worth at this nice establishment.

Wasabi (Broadway)
If you’re looking for the best sushi in Winnipeg, or for a fine dining place, we’d recommend Wasabi Sushi on Broadway. This is not your typical sushi restaurant. The atmosphere is great and it’s also one of the more elegant sushi places in Winnipeg, with great service and atmosphere.
The food there is fantastic – we loved their Winnipeg Jets Roll 30 (with lobster and shrimp tempura) and the East Meets West (with lobster, mango and avocado).
