Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Canmore

"Commonly known as ‘Sushi Train’, this restaurant serves up a wide assortment of sushi, sashimi, and small plate Japanese eats on – you guessed it – a model train!. It will circle the track around a chef crafting the pieces right before your eyes. Cozy up to your dinner mate and even make a few new friends at their bar-style seating for up to 18 people."

"We love sushi, and we love a good deal, so Banff Sushi is a slam dunk for us. The novelty of the sushi train was definitely appreciated and brought us back to Japan as we nabbed tantalizing bites of sushi off the Canadian train engine. If you like sushi, this may be one of the best deals in Banff."

"For cheap sushi that is authentic and high quality check out Banff Sushi House. It’s a pretty small hole in the wall spot and there isn’t much of an ambiance. However, the sushi is cheap, delicious, and the staff is very friendly."

"Although it’s located right on the 100 block of Banff Ave, you might miss this little Japanese noodle house. This local favourite serves up filling and affordable rice and noodle bowls. If you’re extra hungry, order the hearty Katsu Don."

"Chaya Ramen, Banff – This was a very small Japanese restaurant but offered a variety of ramen and other Japanese dishes. It was always crowded but we took our ramen to go. The ramen were all delicious and hit the spot during a cold day."

"We’ve tried several Canmore sushi restaurants, but we always come back to Mii Sushi. Whether we eat in or order takeout, we feel that Mii Sushi has the best sushi in Canmore. Everyone’s tastes are different , of course, but our favorited at This excellent Canmore sushi restaurant are the tuna sashimi, salmon sushi I, the Mii house special roll, the mango salmon roll and the Flames roll."

"Though it’s only steps away from Banff Avenue, the newest ramen shop, Amu Ramen Bar, feels more like a classic lunch spot on a Tokyo street. Get a welcome dose of culture and warm hospitality with your tan-tan, miso or shoyu-paitan ramen. Don’t Miss: For something different, try the mabo-tofu rice bowl with spicy miso-marinated pork and homemade chili oil."

"Tooloulou’s: more known as a brunch place, but they also have sit down dinners that offer Cajun seafood and burgers.

It has an extensive brunch list that ranges from Canadian specialties (poutine) to French toasts to sandwiches to eggs."

A family friendly place most suitable for parties and regular meals in case you’re in the town for more than a day."

"Self-described as a little Louisiana, a little Acadiana, and a little Canadiana…we call it pretty deliciousana. (Okay, bad joke, sorry.). Tooloulous uses their menu to plot the connection of the Acadians who left Canada for Louisiana and helped forge the Cajun culture."

"Not so much a breakfast eatery, but somewhere to grab a quick snack on the go. Wild Flour bakery sells a variety of baked goods, cookies, cakes and sandwiches, that are great if you just want to grab something on the go.

"Banff Upper Hot Springs is the perfect place to relax after a day on the hiking or ski trails. Visitors have been coming to this Banff attraction since the 1880s to bask in the therapeutic mineral waters, though First Nations were doing that long before the railroad opened up this section of Canada; the native people considered the hot springs a sacred place. Banff Upper Hot Springs is the highest in Canada."

"These hot springs are a short drive from the town of Banff on the side of Sulphur Mountain. Water in the springs bubble to the surface from 1.8 miles deep in the crust. The temperature of the spring water varies through the year and can reach 116 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter."
