This is probably my favourite Japanese restaurant in T.O!  I've been here so many times and each visit is consistent in both service and freshness/deliciousness of food. The waiter that I usually get here is very polite and the Chef always says…More »

My boyfriend and I come here often (at least once a month for the past year or so).  They're consistently good, the service is satisfactory and they have really good lunch specials, with nothing over $10.  I've only had one bad experience there where…More »

Meh.  I think this place is okay but nothing special.  The patio on Queen is kinda neat for people-watching, but I just don't like how crammed you feel.  Inside is a bit better, but again... always packed.

My opinion: over-rated.

Just came back from din-din at Sushi on Bloor.  Have been living in the area my whole life, and have never eaten there.

The place is crazy busy.  We were seated right by the front door, which got annoying while the hoards of patrons were dashing in…More »

Um yeah, not impressed.

Just picked-up over $50 worth of lunch specials from these guys and when I got back to the Office, I noticed they didn't include any miso soup and/or salad that usually comes with it.

I get all the way back to the office, notice…More »

  Update - 6/8/2011

As of next week, no more $8 lunch special.

They've introduced a "new menu", and have jacked up the prices on EVERYTHING.  

To put it in perspective, their teriyaki bento box's (chicken, salmon AND beef) all used to be $6.95.  Now their chicken box is…More »

This place is a good go-to when Mazz sushi is too packed.  The sushi quality is very good and quite fresh.  Never any complaints with the food not tasting fresh here.

Salad dressing and miso soup are both SO good.  My BF usually doesn't like miso soup…More »

Their sushi and rolls are pretty damn good, I must say!  So fresh tasting.  I would give these guys 4 stars for their sushi and rolls.  

Their salmon and chicken teryaki should never be ordered again though.  It wasn't my thing. The salmon portion was…More »

Visited here the other day and had the $5.99 lunch special.

What can I say other than you get what you pay for....  I wasn't disappointed because I knew I wasn't going to get AAA quality ingredients.  It's not horrible, but of course, there are…More »

My family and I come here often for the AYCE Lunch and I would recommend this place if you like sushi and you're in Milton.

The restaurant is quite big, but well maintained, and the washrooms are clean.

The service is good. We don't have to wait…More »

Best Sushi place in St. Catharines!  Sushi Jade is a close second.  Both are a little bit more expensive than the others- but well worth the extra few bucks.

I used to come here a lot back in the day, during my college years..... yep those were the days.... (2008, lol.)

I've never been here for Dinner, only lunch but I don't miss out on anything from the lunch menu.  It was $11.99 plus tax for AYCE plus…More »

Won't be ordering from here anymore.
