Basho Menu Prices Canada 2026
Basho Menu Prices Canada 2026
Basho menu prices in Canada start at $9.00 for the bar snacks and run to $54.00 for the Omakase Toby Plate on the official menu page for Basho Restaurant in St. John’s. The Tuna Tartar is $22.00. The Filet Mignon is $51.00. Most sushi rolls sit between $12.00 and $22.00. I read the whole Basho St John’s menu on the restaurant’s own site so you can see the real figures before you book a table on Duckworth Street. And honestly? For a downtown St. John’s evening room with this kind of menu, the starters look fair. The mains are a treat-night spend. That is the honest split.
What Are Basho Menu Prices in Canada?
Short answer: starters $15.00 to $28.00, bar snacks $9.00, mains $30.00 to $51.00, and sushi rolls $12.00 to $54.00 for the Toby Plate. These Basho menu prices are in Canadian dollars from the official menu page at bashorestaurant.com, checked October 27, 2026. One honest note before the tables. The menu page itself carries no date, so I am not calling it a 2026 menu. The prices below are the prices printed on that page when I read it. This is the St. John’s Basho, on Duckworth Street in Newfoundland and Labrador, not the Boston restaurant of a similar name. If you like comparing sushi rooms before you pick one, the Sushi Nami menu prices page covers another Canadian sushi spot worth a look.
Starters
Starters run from $15.00 to $28.00. The Basho tuna tartar price is $22.00, and it comes with roasted garlic avocado, essence of white truffle and tomato yuzu salsa, upon availability. The scallops three ways at $27.00 is the priciest starter, and it earns that spot with three different sauces on the plate.

The Tuna Poke Bowl appears in two places on the official menu page, at the same $22.00 both times, so it is listed in both tables here just as the menu prints it. Drinks are a short list, not a full table, because the menu page prints a selection. The Basho Mojito is $16.00 and the Basho martini is $16.00. The Iceberg Mojito, Shaken Daiquiri, Shaken Colada, Cuba Libre Basho Style and Creamsicle are $14.00 each. The Sapphire Collins and Bombay Gingerale are $13.00 each. The Mikan and Sakenade Ginger are $15.00 each, and the Big Apple Martini is $13.00. Wine by the glass runs $11.00 to $16.00, and wine by the bottle runs $40.00 to $180.00, with the Veuve Clicquot Brut at $180.00. Non-alcoholic choices run $7.50 to $11.00, including a $7.50 Budweiser Zero.
Two things I could not price, and I would rather say so than guess. No dessert prices are printed on the official menu page, so no dessert price is printed here. Reviewers mention a chocolate mousse dessert, but no price is given anywhere I could verify, so it stays unpriced. And no delivery listing was found for the St. John’s Basho on DoorDash, SkipTheDishes or Uber Eats, so no delivery prices are printed here either. The restaurant offers take-out per a listings site, but no take-out price list was found.
Basho Menu Card Canada 2026
Here is the core menu on one card, so you can scan the starters, mains and sushi fast. It is a render of the current official online menu, not a photo of an in-store board, because no genuine current menu-card photo exists. The full list sits in the tables above, since the card shows only a subset of those lines.
What Should You Order at Basho in St. John’s?
Here is my honest take after reading the whole menu twice. Start with the Tuna Tartar at $22.00. Roasted garlic avocado, white truffle essence, tomato yuzu salsa. That is the dish that tells you what this kitchen is trying to do. Is it worth $22.00? In my opinion, yes, for a starter that does this much work on one plate. Then order rolls to share. For another Japanese menu to compare before you commit, the Akira Back menu prices page shows how a Toronto Japanese restaurant prices its plates.
Basho Sushi Rolls St John’s
Basho sushi rolls St John’s visitors ask about most are the $12.00 California roll and vegetable roll, the $13.00 tempura shrimp roll, and the $16.00 super roll. The Basho omakase Toby Plate price is $54.00 for 6 pc nigiri, a super roll, a BC roll and an eel and avocado roll, and it is the sharing plate for the table.
For a main, the pan seared cod at $39.00 is my pick over the two $51.00 steaks. Cilantro aioli, citrus soy glaze, and a fish that suits the room. The lamb shanks are the other smart main: $36.00 for a single, $48.00 for a double. And if you want the room’s signature touch, the Nobu New Style Sashimi at $22.00 is the one to try. Salmon, beef or tuna, upon availability. Ask your server what is in that night before you order it.
Is Basho Worth It in St. John’s?
Short version: yes, if you order like you know the menu and you know the price going in. Basho menu prices put starters in the $15.00 to $28.00 range and most rolls in the $12.00 to $16.00 range, which is fair for a downtown evening restaurant in St. John’s. Where I would pause: the Filet Mignon and the dry aged striploin are both $51.00, and the Toby Plate is $54.00, so a table that orders all three is in treat-night territory fast. Where the value shows up is at the start of the meal. Bar snacks at $9.00. A vegetable roll at $12.00. A tempura shrimp roll at $13.00. My favourite trick? A couple of rolls, a starter to share, and one main between two. It works every time.
