Okay. I’ve been sleepin on this one. Walked by several times, but never went in. Tonight I stopped and had a look at the menu. Went for it. RiDicuLous! This will now be a staple of mine. Admittedly, I only had one menu item and some hot Sake. But what I had was excellent and I’ll be coming back for more. My menu item tonight:Chili Goma (S)$19.00Tonkotsu broth, braised pork, sprouts, greens, sautéed corn, scallions, soy egg, fried garlic, sesame seeds.Full flavoured tonkotsu broth, with the addition of the greens/veg and all the rest. And my favorite, noodles that aren’t too thick. Just my preference. I loved everything about this. And when they suggest the House Chili Oil? Say YES.I’ll be back.

Today we visited 5 Senses Ramen & Sushi Bar and tried two poke bowls — Jaws and The Classic. Both were incredibly delicious and fresh. The ingredients are perfectly balanced, the fish is very tender, and the sauces enhance the flavor without overpowering it. The portions are generous, and the presentation is neat and appetizing. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is friendly and attentive.We’ll definitely be coming back!

Been here a few times and always very satisfied. The atmosphere is lowkey and informal. Servers are friendly and enthusiastic. And the food is great! I am gluten free and have not been able to have ramen since cutting gluten, but this place made my dreams come true. I cannot recommend the chilli goma ramen enough. It will live rent free in my head for all of eternity. They also have gluten free fried chicken and fries. Whether you are gf or not, you should check this place out!

I was well surprised that I haven't written a review for this place yet as it's my favourite ramen place in Calgary and I pop in once a week usually.

We came to this place on a Sunday lunch in a cold day. We started with the Fries with Mayo. Excellent. The chives sprinkled on the fries were delicious. kids shared the traditional Tonkotsu, I had one with an extra egg. The broth was flavorful, not too salty. The noodles were al dente. Wife had the chili goma ramen - it had the right amount of spice without overpowering it.

美味又新鲜! ... 和朋友一起去了5 S 17吃饭。从Tuna Poke开始,这只是一小部分,但很棒。对于主餐我有一个鲑鱼捅碗,你可以根据你的需要建立。碗很新鲜,很大一部分。非常值得15美元。 他们喜欢的朋友有拉面和寿司卷饼。 餐厅的气氛还可以 - 我们在周五晚上630吃的时候只有另外一张晚餐桌。 肯定会推荐这家餐厅!

Excellent food. Located on the 2nd floor of the mall, this restaurant is situated in a prime corner, which gives it great visibility.
