    a variety of foods on a table
    Cindy L.

    Great value! I actually enjoyed their rolls more than the garlic beef dish. Great salad app, miso soup Sweet potato tempura roll was BOGO and it was on point! The Sano roll had almost everything i liked - soft shell crab, shrimp tempura, bbq eel, fish egg and avocado- but somehow I expected more from it. Overall good value and will likely try a couple other things when I'm in the mood for sushi in the future!

    Ordered the sushi and sashimi combo from the a la care menu which came with miso soup and salad on the side. No substitutions are allowed for the combos according to the waitress so had to stick with the two eel sushi pieces. Decent tasting sushi. Service was quick and efficient, we didn't have to wait long to order and get food (important as we were starving!). The restaurant itself was busy for a Sunday afternoon with most patrons opting for the AYCE but we did not need to wait for a table. If you're looking for a quick sushi bite around the area, this is a solid spot!

    In the last 10 years or so this is the second incarnation of a sushi place in this exact location. Both places just also happened to be AYCE. I find a lot of sushi AYCE places start out strong but towards their end, they slowly but surely go downhill. Usually the service starts to go downhill then the food follows, then the hunt for the next great sushi place begins anew. So is the life cycle for an AYCE sushi joint it seems in the GTA. This place though seems to have a little bit more staying power I largely suspect due to the fact that the owner always seems to be around. Ever since the place first opened there is always a gentleman there. At first I assumed it was just the usual owner/manager keeping things in check then moving on to other things. But over time I noticed that nearly every time I went here, this same owner was doing something different. He would be making sushi one day, cleaning tables and serving the next. A few times I went here and didn't see him and thought he's finally taking a day off, but half way through my meal lo and behold I see him come out of the kitchen with an apron on I assume as he also cooks! It goes a long way for me when I see the owner/manager wear so many different hats. Having said that, it's a great plus to see him around as when he is I know that I will be getting exactly what I ordered. This place has menus where you can check off what you want on a piece of paper unlike a lot of newer places with their iPad. The menu is a very good variety of your standard fare AYCE sushi. If you have a huge craving for great sushi I don't hesitate to recommend this place, as they are very consistent in what they deliver each order and each time i go. Other places, the first order may be great but after that, the sushi pieces can slowly become stuffed with more rice (filler) and less meat. Portions start to get smaller each order and eventually it will look like they just threw pieces together. A pretty standard tactic for AYCE that tells you you have over stayed your welcome, but I never saw the food quality degrade during a meal here. And having been here a number of times I can say whole heartedly that they are very consistent. I would say this place is a very solid 3.5 star out of 5. This is still an AYCE, so keep your expectations in check as it's not an omakase meal here. But for an AYCE sushi place, this is probably one of the more consistent spots in the GTA. And with all the AYCE sushi places coming and going, it says a lot when someone says that this place is consistent in their food. Though be forewarned the service can be spotty, and mixed up orders do occur. Again its an AYCE place, so I can't say it's the best ever, but it definitely hits the spot when i have a craving for an AYCE sushi. TIP: Bring cash as their is a 10% discount if you pay in cash.

    We was going to sit in the patio but they told us there bees and mosquito so they moved us to a private room which is not bad. It is all you can eat and the price reasonable. A lot of stuff to choose from and it is fresh. Will definitely come back here again.

    Salads Drowning in Dressing!

    Everything that served here at Sano Sushi are drowned in some kind of orange sauces and gravy. I know I am in one of those AYCE Japanese nightmare when I saw my salads.. especially my Wakame salad that looks like a soup? My Red Tuna sushi looks so red just like one of those plastic fake one that used to decorate display windows, I really feel like I am falling deeper and deeper in this bad dream... Fried Fish Cake? that looks like a solid cube with a funny texture...and I think this tasted like the exact same sauce that is on my cold Grilled Salmon Neck? Why are the Sano shrimps (deep fried breaded shrimps) so cold and more orange sauces on top of them?! I just cannot do this anymore... at least the green tea ice cream bring me back to reality... 15% off if paying cash... But I don't think this is enough incentive for me to come here ever again!

    I ordered from Sano Sushi last night using SkipTheDishes. The order was confirmed after about 5 minutes, and it was delivered within 35-40 minutes, so it was fast enough. The tempura was not good at all, i only had few bites and couldn't finish the appetizer portion. The breading on the shrimp was too light and tasteless, it was also over done and way over-fried! The vegetables tasted old and barely had any tempura breading on them. The edamame were ridiculously bad! My favourite app is the edamame wherever I go, however, I inly had 4 or 5 of this one, And it did it for me! No taste, no texture, seemed old 100%, no salt, nothing! As for the rolls, the shrimp roll didn't taste good at all, overpowering fish-eggs a d seaweed taste, while the only thing that tasted good was the spicy california rolls. Smaller portion/roll size compared to competition, but charging premium prices. I paid $40 for the above order as in the photos attached! Absolute rip-off for a tasteless bunch of items. I will not re-order from here, there are much better options nearby!

    Ordered a platter for delivery via skipthedishes. I haven't been to much sushi places in Vaughan but this is now one of my favourites. Their fish to rice portion is AMAZING. There's little rice on the sushi and It's amazing. Sometimes, I would take out some rice out of sushi but Sano had a good ratio that I ate theirs as is. Presentation wise, it's not pretty. The rolls were also falling apart. But overall, the fish also tasted fresh. Will 100% dine in sometime soon.

    This is a little Japanese restaurant that serves all your typical Japanese buffet food including sushi, maki rolls, teppanyaki, tempura, salad, katsu, handrolls, and desserts (and also with Chinese, Thai, and Korean options too). This was my first time here and I enjoyed the food! The selection was plentiful and the food arrived quickly and without anything being missed. I especially liked the curry chicken katsu (comfort food!), yakitori (which had amazingly tender chicken), seaweed salad, green dragon roll, cheese mango maki (who would have known that cheese and mango would work so well together?), mushroom teppanyaki, chocolate mousse, and salmon sushi. The cheese wonton was good too and had gooey cheese melting out of it!

    Bento box meals tastes actually ok. Salmon teriyaki - tougher than what I had desired hence not a 4 star or higher Udon noodle soup was ok. Nothing really that stood out. Tastes at par with Smart Cook in Markham though Smart Cook's soup base seem more flavourful (and no or little msg as I don't get the usual getting-so-thirsty effect of msg). Try the beef bento as my kids seem to enjoy that more and didn't bother getting more of my salmon. Chicken katsu was quite acceptable though Nak Won's katsu is a clear winner compared to this. Lots of space here with room for a reservation of up to 20 people. Sushi was ok but not spectacular. Worth a try but not a place I would go out of my way to dine in.

Flavours are very Asian fusion with things like kimchi fried rice and bi bim bap but there are also more mainstream items such as Rigatoni Alfredo with chicken and short rib Benedict. Flavours are still good with decent portions. We were checked on several times so service was good. What was a miss was how the food came out of the kitchen. Food came out sporadically with the last dish a full 10 minutes after the first leaving that person sitting and waiting while everyone else ate. This is still a very popular place. It was almost full for a Monday lunch.

Our server only came twice, which was when we first arrived and sat down and when we paid for the bill. She actually never came during the whole time we were there and never checked on us. Given the price range of this place, I'm surprised at the lack of and poor service. We waited quite some time before having to wave just a random waitress to come and take our order and we had to keep waving for random servers to help us fill our water and get the menu to order a dessert. We were also there to celebrate a birthday and informed the restaurant about it when we made the reservation. We were told that for birthdays, there's a complimentary dessert or if we order one, they could write "happy birthday" on the plate. After being seated, we reminded our server about this (the one who never showed up until bill time), and not only did we not receive any complimentary anything, but there was no "happy birthday" written on our dessert that we ordered and paid for. I think that is quite unacceptable given what we were told and we also reminded them upon being seated. What kind of service is this? This is pure ignorance of customers' requests and lack of follow through of their own restaurant policy about complimentary dish for birthday celebrations. In terms of food, we ordered the following: Wagyu Beef Siu Mai, Handmade Lobster Wontons, Crispy Broccoli, Crab Truffle Chawanmushi, and Black Sesame & Tofu Baked Alaska. We wanted to get the Shrimp & Scallop Toast but was told that it was not available so that was a bit disappointing too. Overall, all the food tasted pretty good and were aesthetically presentable. However, given the price point, I wouldn't say they tasted exceptionally outstanding. None of them were so special to a point that I'd feel like I must come back for that particular dish again. Overall a mediocre experience with pretty food that tasted decently palatable but with very poor (or lack of) service.

Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak: $33 - Buttercup Squash Puree and Truffle Oil - Everything you want Wagyu to be - tender, cooked to the perfect temp which left a nice warm red centre. This was melt in your mouth good! The burgers - these were perfection! Draco Bacon Cheddar Burger: $25 - Aged Cheddar with Crispy Bacon Strips; Crispy Onion Straws, Arugula and Garlic Aioli. This was a very well seasoned patty, so juicy and a substantial sized patty of fresh not frozen beef. The bun was lightly toasted, bacon crispy, easily taking this into my top 3 fav spots for burgers! Options for sides include fries, sweet potato fries, poutine, side Caesar or garden salad or truffle fries.

Good texture and chew. Their signature dish is the Beijing Style Sauce Fried Noodles. You get a bowl of warm plain noodles with a platter of julienned vegetables and a small bowl of sauce. You mix everything together before eating. Flavour was good but I would recommend to add the sauce to taste. We added it all at once and found the dish heavy. The Braised Beef Noodle Soup was good. The broth was light and flavourful with pieces pickled turnip under the noodles. Service was okay. We asked for extra bowls and chopsticks and had to remind the server even though they were not busy. Prices are decent. The 4 dishes came to just over 60 bucks. They have daily specials and on Monday it's was the Beijing style sauce noodles for 10.99.

    Went for lunch today and got a table right away…read more Ordering is through a QR code and your food is brought out when it's ready. Omurice was ok with the sauce on the side which was tasty. But the egg was a bit overcooked, so not as runny as an authentic omurice. The croquette was very runny and a little too sweet. The Hojicha Latte was perfect though! Not too milky and had a subtle sweetness. Probably should have ordered one of their Soufflé Pancakes, but we were already full from our meal. It was lunch time, so the parking lot was pretty busy, but still able to find spots a little further away from the restaurant itself
