    Shinka Sushi is, in my opinion, the best sushi restaurant in Ottawa. The ambiance is fantastic! The service is second to none! The Manager and the server were incredibly helpful and they were incredibly attentive. We were able to order items not on the menu. The sushi was so fresh and tasty. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant to anyone. A beautiful experience. Thank you!

    The service was phenomenal and the food was outstanding. We were hesitant to ask but did end up politely asking to move to a quieter/cozier area and the server made it a smooth process. The explanation of the origin and background concept behind the restaurant was interesting. The bao buns, sushi, waygu sliders were perfectly cooked. We also loved the angry chicken! The view of the spa and twinkly lights was lovely.😊 Everything was reasonably priced too:)

    Food came out quick and we were greeted promptly at the door. It did help that we were the first people there. The tempura, nigiri and tuna rolls were good. So was the salmon roll. Wife got chicken teriyaki and that was delicious carrots were seasoned well. A bit over priced for the entire experience though.
