California Roll
Crab, avocado and cucumber — no raw fish.
View California RollShrimp tempura is the appetizer that disappears first. Shrimp in a light, airy batter, dropped into hot oil only once your order is in, and served crisp with dipping sauce. It is the hot counterpoint to a cold sushi order — and one of the most requested plates at Watta Sushi in Winnipeg.
Tempura is deliberately restrained: a thin, cold batter and a very short fry, so the coating stays light and shatters instead of turning heavy. Done properly the shrimp inside stays sweet and just cooked through. That only works if it goes in the fryer when you order it, which is exactly how we do it on Sherbrook Street.
Shrimp tempura is also the bridge dish for anyone unsure about sushi — it is fully cooked, familiar and easy to share. Order it for the table while the rolls are being cut, or add it to a bento for a bigger meal.
Tempura is best within minutes of the fryer, so we time it to the end of your ticket. Pickup is quickest from West Broadway, Wolseley, the West End and the Health Sciences Centre area, and we deliver across central Winnipeg. Order online at our ordering page or call (204) 774-7777.

“Amazing as always. The chicken teriyaki dinner combo arrived hot, fresh and really well packaged.”
Shrimp tempura is shrimp coated in a light Japanese batter and deep fried briefly so the coating stays crisp and the shrimp stays tender. It is served hot with dipping sauce.
