Taiyo Japanese

This is a nice little Japanese restaurant. food was aright.. We were a big group and we all ordered different food. Their menu have some good stuff : Udon, sushi, karage and other japanese favorite dish. I found food to be aright. Price is reasonable so you get good portion for what you pay. Staff are very friendly and approachable.

Was able to walk in without a reservation at 5:30 on a Friday evening. The staff were very friendly throughout the meal and had no problem making accomodations with the meal. All the sushi tasted fresh, nigiri, sashimi, and cone rolls. All the hot plates came out hot and stayed hot rather then cooling down quickly. They do have larger tables for bigger parties, but I would make a reservation for those as they do fill up quick after 6:00.
Specialty rolls are more than the average sushi place here but they have plenty of other options if you wish to eat without coming up with a heavy bill.

I ordered from here because on Skip the Dishes, Kinjo raised their prices up $2 for all items and changed their online menu (less variety)..I chose Taiyo from their google reviews and it was a great choice! The prices were so much cheaper, the portion sizes were larger and the presentation of the food was great. All around I was very pleased with my order!

Local sushi in Symons area.

Staff super friendly and menu well balance of hot and cold Japanese food.

There are dinner combos for 2 or 4 people and priced nicely with a good mix of sushi, apps, soups, salad, meat and ice cream. Good for first time sushi eaters.

Dining area is small with seating up to 35-50 people max.

Lots of take out action and there is a sushi bar with a few stools.

Very clean restaurant and recommend if you in surrounding area.

On the pricy side but most sushi restaurants are in YYC.

Very good value for good food. I have tried their lunch and dinner menu and I'm always satisfied in every visit.

I love their lunch combo with miso soup and salad. It's a bento box thats very filling and just costs $12+. I tried their vegetable ramen and beef ramen, it's perfect to warm you up this fall/winter season. The serving of the ramen is big enough to share for two! If the other person ordered another dish to share you'll feel super full already!

Their dinner menu is also good though the combo of soup/salad/sushi is not available for dinner anymore.

This is my Japanese spot and I'm so glad it's just 10 mins walk from my house! My go to for Japanese craving!

This restaurant is right by my house, so I decided to try it out since I love sushi! The restaurant itself is very nice and modern and the service was good.

I got a variety of different rolls, gyoza, and some udon soup. They don't have all you can eat here, so it can get a bit pricey! The rolls however were very big, so they fill you up! I like my gyoza pretty crispy and the server told me they couldn't do that, so that was a little disappointing! The food though was all good with fresh tasting ingredients.

I would come back since it's so close to home!

Yum! Finally we have found a sushi place in the NE that is delicious!

The service was so fast! I couldn't believe it. Our nigiri was the first thing to come, and it was delicious, the thickest salmon I've ever seen served. It was at least 50% bigger than other places I've been to. The sashimi was the same thick slices of fresh salmon. Their rainbow roll was heavenly, it had a cajun shrimp in it and was the best I've had. The salmon roll was average, not as much salmon as I was expecting after some of the other rolls. House special was delicious, usually I don't order the 4 piece ones because they are awkward to eat, but this one was worth it. Maki ranges from 5 + and their special rolls are 12+. We went a bit nuts and the bill proved it. Dragon roll was good, too.

Geez, I could go back right now!

Decor was clean and inviting. Nice space between tables, I didn't feel like we were eating with the people across from us. I loved that the sushi chefs at the back greeted us and said thank you at the end, despite being very busy.

Got take out today. Very good dynamite and California rolls! Decent priced, and good portions. Friendly staff.

Good food and fairly priced. The people who work there are very polite and try to help you quickly. Bathrooms are spacious and pretty clean and they have a good amount of seating and walk-ins are welcome. Love this place!

Price vs quality, can't beat this place in Calgary.

I love Japanese food, so when I talk about sushi quality, and I know what I'm talking about. Taiyo is a local Japanese restaurant, so I was skeptical to try it out at first, but their sushi was really really fresh and I was really surprised. Not the best sushi I had though, but I would eat here rather than driving all the way to downtown to get better sushi. I mean it's that good.

Service was good. Very attentive and kind.

A lot of food on menu that I haven't tried out yet, but I will gladly return to try them.

Check this place out my friends! This place serves the best food "affordable" money can buy. Waiting time is reasonable, you get friendly service, food servings are more than the usual and it's clean. Even though the dining area is small, people come back for the food. Appetizers are priced perfectly - 6 to 11 dollar range. My fav is the calamari (ika karaage) and Tako yaki! I don't often make reviews but when I do, its because it has caught my attention.
