Nupo, nestled in Calgary’s East Village, is a culinary homage to Chef Darren MacLean’s roots, inspired by his mother’s love for plant-based dishes, vegan recipes, and a passion for Fish and Sushi, as reflected in the menu and the restaurant’s name, derived from her maiden name Nuponnen.
While the interior design pays tribute to Alberta through elements like birch, shale, and burnt woods, Nupo offers a unique Japanese-style dining experience with a focus on plant-forward, vegan cuisine alongside exceptional sushi, including aged varieties from Canada’s only dry aging chamber.
The restaurant boasts a first-of-its-kind counter service Omakase Sushi Experience in Calgary where guests can indulge in a 12-course nigiri extravaganza sourced sustainably from around the globe, expertly served piece by piece in a setting that marries tradition with innovation.
