Review from Wes N.
Atmosphere, Service, and Food: That's how I review.
Atmosphere: Kanda (on Bishop St.) is clean, proper, and cozy - perfect for those cold nights in Montreal. For the summer time, they have a comfy terras in front - a nice touch. You'll enjoy being at this place.
Service: The service at this location is pleasant, but I've been to others where the waiters and waitresses attitude left more to be desired. The service at bishop is friendly, but not dotting - it may sometimes come a little late if the restaurant is full.
Food: The sushi is middle of the road - not haut japanese cuisine by any stretch - however it is well made, well presented, tastes great, and there's a fair amount of selection options. The place does most of its business due to the "all you can eat" buffet option - but watch out, the price for this option varies depending on the time of day and wether you're visiting on the weekend or during a holiday. For the price - regardless of the differences due to time etc. - I find that what is received is good value.
Hits the spot. -
Review from Elleni T.
I always have a personal challenge at Kanda...to out eat the kitchen. I never succeed (thank god). The food comes fast, you can order what you like over and over again. The beauty is that you get to try everything and then decide never to eat something again. The problem is that the pictures on the place-mat do not always match the menu.

Review from Renaud B.

Meh.
One word says it all.
Given its prices, this place is really not worth your time, money, and appetite. With prices hovering around $25+ for a dinner, you would really expect some better quality cuisine. Not this place. The staff is unapproachable, the food was cheap, and the menu is rather limited. The quality of food was especially unimpressive. You can sense that the food was made several hours ago only to be left out at room temperature conditions until you scribbled down your command on the order sheet. In fact, Kanda has recently been identified by Resto-Net, a food safety watchdog, as having FAILED multiple food safety inspections (see here http://resto-net.ca/).
At this rate, you really should just do your wallet a favor and walk across the street to the Burger King. At least you know you are paying for junk food at that joint. -
Review from Sabrina G.

In the past I found Kanda a great place for all you can eat sushi as well as some other hot dishes.
I was very disappointed recently. My parents had received a coupon booklet that had Kanda coupons in it, back in May. We decided to finally take advantage of our $20 off for 4 people coupon that would expire in Dec. When we arrived at the restaurant, they wouldn't honor the coupons, telling us someone was trying to make fraudulent copies of the coupons. We left at this point because the manager was extremely rude with us.
All this said, my parents and I went to another restaurant in our coupon booklet and they accepted our coupons with no questions asked. So we decided to speak with the management at that restaurant about the coupon scandal and they had never heard of it. So at this point, I think Kanda is lying through their teeth to not honor their own coupons.
Given the attitude of Kanda, I will avoid all their branches as much as possible in the future. They are not an honest business. -
Review from Bora L.
I visited Montreal for a conference and some of my friends recommended this place for sushi. Coming from central PA, "fresh" seafood is not something you can get easily. But the sashimi at Kanda was very fresh! They have a variety of side plates, such as mussel, sushi pizza, and tempura. There were not a lot of kinds of rolls but most of them, I thought, were creative in some way. One thing that took me some time to adjust was that they serve you instead of a you serving yourself, which is more typical for a buffet place. All in all, I would rate this place a nice place to get fresh food at a good price.

Review from sophie p.

it's a good place for lunch, a shorter menu but still an all-you-can-eat for 15$ and it goes really fast, you don't have to wait for your order.
for dinner it will cost you 25$, with a larger choice, but unless you really eat a lot (not my case), i found 25$ a bit expensive as the quality is correct, but not impressive, and when it's crowded the service is really poor, we had to wait a lot the waiter each time we wanted to reorder some food (and also wait a long time for the food, each time) -

Review from Mario M.

good sushi at a good price. kitchen items are good too, their all you can eat lunch buffet has limited items but for 15 dollars its MORE than worth it. I would avoid going there friday and saturdays when its more expensive for dinner. You don't go there for the service, that's for sure. But it used to be A LOT worse. Now they at least look at you, and reluctantly bring the menu. They hired a new girl last year and she still works there, she is the BEST. So grateful they got rid of most of the rude staff...

Review from B M.

Really good Sushi, all you can eat menu for 20-25$... pretty reasonable price if you can pack in 25-50 rolls of Sushi in one sitting. Ingredients are always super fresh, the caviar eggs are small and delicious, and the chefs do not get lazy and douse rolls with a mayonaise based sauce to make up for a lack of flavor. Definitely the best Sushi place on the West Side, although there might be some better deals east of downtown that merit a look.
