I'll definitely keep coming back!

We came here because of the reviews on Google, and like a lot of people have mentioned, parking is…read morefairly difficult. There are only about 4 to 5 spots in the front, and while there are some smaller plaza parking lots nearby and another parking lot across the street, most of the spots are marked for whatever store they're in front of, so park at your own risk. Upon entering, there aren't that many tables either. There isn't a lot of room for bigger groups but they can merge some of the tables together. The biggest issue for us was definitely how long and uneven the wait for the food was. We ordered at 12:15 PM and got our salads about 10 minutes later, but after that, the food came out pretty sporadically. The first actual dish didn't come until 12:44 PM, which was the tempura from the two-person set. Parts of the other meals and the rest of the two-person set slowly came out between 12:46 and 12:49 PM. The 30-piece sashimi and sushi set didn't arrive until 1:04 PM, almost 50 minutes after we ordered, and the actual salmon teriyaki which was just a small salad, salmon teriyaki and steamed rice from the bento was the last thing to come out at 1:09 PM, about 54 minutes after ordering. By that point, we had already finished the entire two-person set and another person had finished their udon and sushi combo. It's just not ideal when you're eating with a group and some people haven't even gotten the main part of their meal while everyone else is already finished. It also didn't seem like it was only our table. The table in front of us had a pasta order that seemed to have been missed. We heard the server say it was about to be ready, and then heard someone from the kitchen respond with something along the lines of, "There's another order for it?" So I do think the timing and communication between the kitchen and servers is something they need to improve on. We were served our salads first, but didn't get our miso soups until we asked for them. They were planning to serve them with the meals, but since we had already been waiting so long, we ended up just asking if we could have them first. For food, I got the two-person lunch set for $52, which came with a large veggie udon, 9 pieces of sashimi, 6 pieces of sushi, an additional 6 pieces of a classic roll, and tempura. We chose the spicy scallop maki for our roll. The sushi and sashimi were good, and the tempura was good as well. The veggie udon was a little disappointing though. It had one bok choy, a few pieces of mushroom, and then was mostly just strands of onion. The spicy scallop maki was also just okay since I couldn't really taste much scallop. Price-wise, I do think it's a little on the higher side for what you get. The quality was good overall, but for the price I would've liked a little more, especially considering the wait. Between how difficult parking is and how long and unevenly the food came out, I'm not really in any hurry to return. I think the wait bothered me more because we were eating as a group, and by the time two people finally got their food, the rest of us were completely finished. If they can improve the timing of getting everyone's meals out somewhat together, it would make the experience a lot better. 5% off with cash.

Eddie's Maki 8 pcs ($23). 4. Sake Don ($27). 5. Chicken Teriyaki Set ($23.75). 6. Kinmedai Sashimi 3 pcs ($22). Each main dish comes with a dessert. We chose vanilla ice cream, black sesame ice cream, and yuzu pudding x 2. The service was excellent. Sashimi Moriawase had 18 pieces of Sashimi. It was beautifully plated with vibrant colours. The pieces were very fresh and some were thickly sliced. Delicious. The Tamago Maki had 6 pieces and were entirely eaten by my son. It's like he hasn't heard of sharing! The Eddie's Maki consists of Seared Salmon, Unagi, and Avocado. The Sake Don is Salmon Sashimi on Sushi Rice. My son ate this entire dish. The Chicken Teriyaki Set comes with miso soup, green salad, and steamed rice. The chicken was quite tender. The Kinmedai Sashimi was on the daily specials menu. It was presented well. The Kinmedai is a highly prized deep-sea fish and had a mild unami-packed flavour. There is a sushi bar where you can see yhe sushi chefs work, but there is no counter seating. The diners were very loud. If you pay by cash, you get 5% off. If you have a VIP membership card, you get 10% discount when paying cash; I got that card. The colour scheme is black and gold, with Japanese waves as their theme. There were a few private dining areas, separated by curtains. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are separate male/female washrooms. There is free parking in the mall's parking lot. There are 2 booster seats and 3 high chairs for little children. Review 2026-116

The rolls and individual pieces were excellent, soft and fresh. We were completely satisfied considering we trusted this place on Chinese New Years Eve 2026. It was an easy process to order, I thought there would be a massive wait. But upon calling was told 10-15 minutes to make the platter. So Good food, good prices and fast service. Can't beat that. An easy recommendation from me and I will be back for more of this deliciousness.

The restaurant had patrons but it wasn't full as we saw empty seats. Perhaps they were back logged by having too many other take out orders. If that's the case, we expected them to have been able to plan around it as they committed to the 30 min window. We assume the delay may also be due to having only 2 sushi chefs were present so understand they need more time, but if that's the case an updated estimated completion time, an explanation as to the delay, or any type of communication would've been appreciated. Instead we were told to pay first before the additional 20 minute wait after. We got the Maki sashimi sushi combo A. 32 pieces. The best item was the spicy salmon roll. Nice crunch, good salmon to rice ratio, and the sauce was just spicy enough that those with a low tolerance could eat it and still deliver a kick to those who like spice. The sashimi was a little smaller than some other sushi take out restaurants, however. But the variety was wide. I'd come back for the variety in combo options, but not on a Friday or Saturday to avoid the wait times.

Luckily I had a chance to return the other week and it was still great. The servers are very polite and attentive. They also have a variety of combo options for meats, sushi, and sashimi. I often used to get the teriyaki combo but their rolls are surprisingly good too. They also often have extra bonus dishes on the house such as salmon collars like when I visited, or bonus rolls. Their small noodle appetizer is also a nice touch. The sashimi was good and they allow minor substitutions which was definitely appreciated. One small observation was their shrimp tempura was actually using fried shrimp batter but it was still yummy. If you're in the area and looking for sushi, they've done it for a long time and do it well. I hope to have an opportunity to come back again soon.

From good reviews from a friend, I finally decided to check it out. Its small local sushi spot, that has many takeout sushi platter options and has a good daily lunch special from $15.

All Bento boxes come with 4 pieces of California roll, miso soup, salad and big bowl of rice all in one tray The steak was very tender cooked as medium well which is my preferred option. I think from this short lunch, I enjoyed the experience if you looking for a quick sushi lunch. Service was quick, sushi and steak was fresh and reasonably affordable in this economy. Definitely check it out!

However, she texted them prior to our arrival and responded with "no problem. Have a safe drive". We were greeted warmly and taken to our table in a back room. We asked to be moved to the sushi bar to see the chefs work despite the privacy of the table. We immediately received a couple large cups of steaming green tea which was delicious. The space is simple & contemporary in its bright & clean design. We ordered the omakase sushi chef's choice (13 pieces each), dancing tempura mushrooms and seared & marinarated duck. We most definitely ate more than 13 pieces though! The courses covered sea bream, toro, oyster, eel, maguro, chopped scallop muscle wrapped in nori and a chopped maguro hand roll stand out in my memory. Some preparations were brushed with soy and others topped with a delicious bead of Japanese green onion & ginger or yuzu/ginger. Absolutely wonderful additions that still make my tastebuds sing! We shared a chilled 300ml bottle of hakkaisan sake with our meal. The chef explained each bite he delivered and the staff was consistent & attentive without interfering at all. The evening was extraordinary and very memorable. I recommend at least a visit to this exceptional spot!
