Great quality of sushi. I'd give it a 4.25 to 4.5. It's consistently good, one of the best spots for Japanese food in Lethbridge.

very delicious food, great and kind service, calming setting. the sushi is delicious and a great place to go for a fancy meal with your family. read more

Lovely place for really great Japanese food! Love getting the lunch bento box, it has choices to make everyone happy!

This place is the biggest rip off 4 tiny maki rolls and 3 small veggie somomuno salads for $60+ Very small portions wasn't enough for 3. And quality is very poor. Very unfortunate. Very disappointing :( PS they put soy sauce in their sonomuno salad read more

Who knew Lethbridge had decent sushi? Great group dinner with four of us. Ambience was pleasant. One side of the restaurant has a rustic feel with brick as the wall. The other side of the restaurant had a lovely lighter pastel feel. The food itself seemed fresh enough for be sashimi portions. We ordered a "sushi boat for 3" plus a roll (dragon roll variation on the boat in he photo). Plus a rice bowl with tempura. Overall, lovely surprise of sushi in the prairies. read more

I was in Lethbridge for work last week and had the chance to stop in to Lighthouse for dinner on Friday night. The room is good, decorations and layout was nice, the building was an older location and done up in a modest Japanese style. The food = amazing! The value was great, we ordered a plate for two and an extra roll, which was unnecessary but still delicious! Their sushi was better than most places in either Edmonton or Calgary and the service was excellent. read more

Been spending a few lunch hours here lately and have gone way satisfied. Tempura dishes are nice, light and crispy. Waiter/waitresses are attentive and fast with orders. Standard sushi and sashimi. a good choice for lunch / dinner in Lethbridge read more

Arrived at 1:45 to place a take-out order and they would fill a $75.00 order because they close at 2:00!

Unfortunately this was a dissapointment. Except for the sashimi, which was fresh and tasty, the rest of the platter was not good. The salad had a peculiar, watered down flavor, barely edible. The green bean edimame was terrible. The rest of the meal was mediocre to bad. It's a let down to read all the good reviews and go out of our way to eat there only to be dissapointed. The service was good though! read more

Absurdly small portion sizes. Ordered two stir fries (salmon and beef) and the portions were astoundingly small. Paid about $3/bite so definitely worth it. $60 very well spent! read more

Lighthouse Japanese Restaurant - a bowl of food on a table - Japanese Near Me - Lethbridge, Alberta

Sushi in a little landlocked Alberta prairie town? Oh yeah, it's thing! Serving up what is essentially fresh fish in a field, Lighthouse does a pretty great job of keeping it sush-tastic despite their Canadian desert conditions. Ok, settle down all you Vancouverites... I'm sure this isn't up to your standards (hey, what is, really? (oooh... burn!)), but let's do a little reality check here. You live by the ocean - the place where fish (a popular ingredient in sushi, and all-time beloved scaly water animal) comes from. This is Lethbridge - Home to students, old people and 300 km/hr wind. There's only enough water to sustain cactuses (cactai?) and prairie grasses (...grassai?) and hopefully have enough left over to cure U of L students' hangovers. Guess what? That they have sushi worth eating - It's a #&$%ing miracle. Lethbridge, believe it or not, was my gateway drug to rolled up seaweed, rice, fish combinations. It was also my gateway drug to, well, regular drugs... because University. GO PRONGHORNS! Jeeze, don't get all uppity! I'm just joking! ...I've never been to a Horns' game. No one has. :P Don't be afraid of the LA sush! (pronounced 'SOOsh Copyright 372 Krew 2005). read more

Went for lunch with my coworkers to have a post meeting discussion. The atmosphere was nice for discussion. Private feeling with the partitions between tables and no ambient music. I ordered the lunch special and my two choices were: vegetable tempera, crab salad roll. It also came with a steamed rice and salad with a house dressing. The meal size was great for lunch and was reasonably priced. I've been to lighthouse many times and have never been disappointed. They have very consistent preparation with nice flavours. The food is all well established dishes that don't push any gastronomic styles but that makes it a great choice for a wide variety of food tastes. read more

Another surprise in downtown Lethbridge!! Lighthouse Sushi has a really nice menu with a lot of unique maki rolls! I got the Rock n Roll and the Neptune Roll. All our food came out super fast and the service was so great too - our waitress Reiko was super friendly! read more

Pretty good for being in the middle of nowhere. Very reasonably priced as well. And Canadians are still the most polite, agreeable people ever, eh? FYI- the toro here is white...and just ok. The Lighthouse Roll is snazzy. read more

I was in Lethbridge for a funeral, and was in the mood for some Japanese food. I naturally used my Yelp app to find a Japanese restaurant. I had been to two others that came up, and decided to try something new. If you've ever been to Lethbridge, you'd know that if their were 3 Japanese restaurants downtown they would all be within a few minutes drive. I believe they open at 4:30 P.M. for dinner. It was a Monday when we came, so it wasn't busy at all. I looked around and found only one other table with a couple sitting there. What we ordered: California roll- on par with any other Tamago sushi- The tamago was sliced thicker, and was made in house. (sometimes you can get the stuff that is very generic and brought in) Agedashi Tofu- appetizer (tasty, sprinkled with bonito flakes) Miso soup- also on par Beef teriyaki bowl- rice bowl with stir fried beef and veggies. (not very much beef) Katsudon- rice bowl, with pork cutlets, then steamed with an egg on top. (the breaded pork was tender and tasty) Tea for all. All in all a good experience at this Japanese restaurant. I will definitely come back here, if ever in Lethbridge. Side note. While dining the restaurant did get busier by the time we finished. Also looks like they do a decent take out business. Also saw a couple who were just married take a couple wedding pics with a photographer at one of the tables. (maybe it's where they had their first date ?). Better than average decor. read more

Best sushi in Lethbridge! Nice atmosphere, friendly staff what more could you want. Everything was great. Wife had a bowl and I had an assorted sushi plate. In a word fabulous read more

Can get pricey if you eat a lot BUT great quality sushi. Food tastes fresh and clean to the palate.

Great sushi, a ton of options on the menu and the atmosphere is good! One of the better sushi places in Lethbridge.

Best sushi in town and I've lived in Japan. I've eaten here a dozen times at least. We even bring exchange professors from Japan here. I am disappointed when they are closed and I have to go to Osho (still a good option though). I especially love the rolls and the sake, though they have a good assortment of stuff including edamame, miso soup, tempura, ramen, udon, sashimi... read more

Healthy food and a nice atmosphere! I had the Caeser Salad with Salmon - the salad was good, dressing good, croutons yummy! the salmon was drier than I like, but still tasty. I tried the vegetable barley soup - very peppery! and the Arnold Palmer was tasty and refreshing. Solid especially for business travelers looking for something healthy. read more

Been here for a nice and quite date night. One of the best places that serves fresh sashimi! Worth a try if you're in town, definitely recommend spicy salmon! read more

Definitely the best sushi option in Lethbridge. Always fresh. The godzilla roll is the best thing on the menu with crispy squid inside. The negi toro is pretty great too. For lunch, you can't go wrong with the bento box lunch special with chicken katsu. read more

Amazing good sushi on the prairies. Strongly recommend this restaurant. Have had a majority of the menu. All very good.

My wife and I accidentally saw this restaurant, we just take a shot and we were so glad we ate here! The service, the waitress and the food is all fantastic! The best Japanesse/Sushi restaurant in Lethbridge. We will absolutely go there again. read more

You would think when you make a reservation 2 weeks in advance for the window table, are told no problem it will be available for sure, that when you arrive you would not be seated late and in the back by the register. Was a weekly customer who now will not be going back. You need to take ownership of how you treat your customers. read more

The best sushi I have had in Alberta. Although this is a small sized restaurant the food and service was fantastic. I would recomend this place to anyone and will be back as often as I can!! read more

Honestly the food is good even though the menu is limited. However they are on the fast track to pricing themselves out of business.
