“ Best sushi in Niagara with take out service at its best. On time and very pleasing to look at. As you can see with the presentation. Ordered two party platters for an evening with the girls and the sashimi & sushi was super fresh and tasty. Thank you for the variety of sushi rolls, entrees, appetizers & sashimi you still offer on your take out menu during this pandemic. Thanks for the complimentary drinks. Looking forward to dine in service soon. ”
“ A true hidden gem of Niagara. Amakara is the best sushi I have tried in niagara. The quality of fish is so fresh and light. Even the presentation of the food alone tells you this is different. The care of how the food is placed shows the owner has high standards. This place is small, but don't overlook it. I do recommend making reservations if you need to eat at a specific time. You will quickly see why Amakara stands out from any other place onces you start eatting. ”

“ First time at Amakara, stopped for takeout to bring at my hotel nearby. Restaurant was full, very nice ambiance. Staff were very kind and proactive even tough they were clearly in a rush. Waited a fair 20 minutes since some maki were deep fried. Everything was fresh, beautifully presented and very tasteful. Will go back when in the area. ”
“ Amakara Japan is probably the best sushi restaurant I've been to in a long time. The location is really small and cozy. I ordered the rainbow roll and it was presented really well. It was super tasty. I also loved the mochi ice cream. The staff was really friendly too. I'm definitely coming back! ”
“ Best Sushi restaurant in Niagara! Great level of quality, freshness and plating is spectacular! Definitely love the food here! ”
“ We had such a great meals here. The food was fresh and generous. Love the atmosphere. We use to go to amakaras more when we were dating about 18 years ago and it's still what I remember it to be. ”
“ This was our first time here. We read reviews and had a look at the menu and chose this over East, the standard AYCE place. Great decision! This is a quaintly charming spot with great authentic Japanese dishes and fresh fish! The staff is as wonderful as the flavour of the dishes. Everything was hot and fresh and honestly the prices are very reasonable. I think my favourite thing was the Amakara steak appetizer, the garlic soy dipping sauce was out of this world! Give this small family run restaraunt a visit and you’ll be impressed! ”
