Japanese Village - Edmonton, Alberta

It's our first time, and it's really great here. The staff were very friendly and approachable And, YES, the food taste great. It was just me and my husband but I think it is more fun to eat here with group of friends or family.

The chief is really entertaining doing those knife blade tricks its quite fun to watch. The shabu2 soup is like an egg drop soup but its to salty. Veggies are nicely cook same as my shrimp misonaise. This place is really busy and pack so its a good to do ... reservation before heading to eat. Read more

Lunch with some entertainment. This was a team lunch and quite an enjoyable one. We had some of the meals cooked right there in front of us. The chef/waiter had a sense of humor and kept us entertained all through the meal preparation. Tasty meals, clean restaurant with a lovely ... ambience. I enjoyed the visit and would definitely consider another. Read more

I enjoyed my visit to Japanese Village, this location wasn't too loud like the one on the south end. Staff were friendly and very accommodating checking in for beverage refills and asking if we wanted anything fairly often but not so often as to be annoying. Our chef Zach was ... friendly and very open about his inexperience, which we didn't mind because the food was cooked to perfection. If you come here you know that you're paying mostly for the tepanyaki experience and having a chef perform for you. The food is pretty good, the sesame sauce is my go to sauce for dipping. This time I had the chicken and steak dinner, you really can't go wrong with anything you order here. At this price point it's not a place you'd come often but it is worth going for special occasions like birthdays and what not. Would recommend it if you haven't tried it before or if you have a special occasion to celebrate just because it's fancy without being pompous. Side note, if you're going to park here, there's a parking lot where you can park for around $5, just go to the lot right beside it, register and pay for parking inside the restaurant and save yourself however much the lots are charging for their event night fees.

An awesome experience. Our chef was very personable and entertaining. We were at with about family, which had me worried at first, but by the end of the meal I was very okay with it. The meal was cooked well, and the beer was a good price. ... This is not an inexpensive restaurant, but a fun treat. Read more
