I visited Edokko Japanese Restaurant today with my daughter. Unfortunately, our experience raised serious concerns about food safety. The fried oysters we ordered had a noticeable unpleasant odor. Shortly after returning home, both my daughter and I experienced stomach pain and diarrhea. This is not a matter of personal taste, but of freshness and hygiene. Seafood quality requires especially strict control, and today’s experience fell far below acceptable standards. I am writing this review to clearly express my disappointment and to urge the restaurant to take immediate responsibility for food quality and customer safety.

Excellent place. Great food, great service. I recommend the lunch specials. Great value for what you get. Exceptional quality for the city. There’s a market for Japanese ingredients tucked in the back that’s adjacent to the back kitchen. Looks like they have some good stuff to stock my pantry with. Parking might be tight. Definitely will return. Update 1: Back again for the Karaage Teishoku. And again... Update 2: Nice delicious unagi don. Recommend lighter on the sauce next time.

We made a reservation for our family of 4. The waitress was super friendly and checked in couple times to see if we needed anything. Food was great! Kids enjoyed the toys/ candy they picked out from the grocery store at back of the restaurant.

Not my first time for sushi, but my first visit to Edokko. We tried a variety of new items, my favourite were the scallops and the Sunomono salad. The bagel roll cream cheese was too large for the roll but still tasty with the salmon. The octopus balls have nice flavour and good texture of the light dough ball. It’s a very cozy dining area and full when we went. I really want to get there for lunch to give the ramen a try. 4.5 rolls out of 5.

Hands down the best sushi and nigiri I’ve had in Winnipeg. Appearances can often be deceiving and this place may look drab but the food and service is top notch. Fish was soft and fresh. They even had king salmon brought in from Japan and it tasted delicious! The sashimi was also fresh and the nigiri was just extraordinary. If you enjoy sushi then this place should be at the top of your list. Only suggestion would be to improve the dining atmosphere as it can be little dark and boring. Price is high but you pay for the quality you get.
