In my books, this place was just OK. It should be noted that this was my first time having sushi in…read moreOttawa, and this place is supposed to be the best sushi place here. I've had sushi plenty in Vancouver and Toronto, and this place was disappointing in comparison (even to Toronto sushi). I think AYCE sushi is more popular in Ottawa. This is one of the few places that do a la carte. I found the prices to be a bit expensive for what you get. 3 of us shared a sushi and sashimi party tray. It came to around $30 a person, and was quoted on the menu to be for about 3-4 people. I would say it's barely enough for 3 very small people, let alone 4. It did not come with miso soup or salad. The quality of the sushi was nothing to be amazed about. Although it was probably a bit better than AYCE, I think for the prices, I'd expect better quality sushi. If I had to, I'd choose AYCE sushi over this in Ottawa. Also, in terms of authenticity, I think this place is Chinese owned. It is a small establishment, so if you want to be sure you get a table, I'd recommend reservations. There is street parking available on Somerset. I likely won't be back, and will definitely try my hardest to persuade my friends to go elsewhere if they want to come back.

It doesn't look like much from the outside and even when you walk in he's still making It home. But this restaurant has only been here 4 months so we have to give It a go.

It's right across from the maxi and there is also Uber eats that can bring this right to you. If you haven't tried It, you must. The rolls were fresh and delicious. The spicy dinner was sooooo good !!! There was some paneo crunchies which always make me happy and sesame on the outside of my veggie rolls. Highly recommend!!! Try It out!!

IT's a husband and wife team and they are so cute! I had the spicy tuna sushi with cucumber, avocado, tobiko and crushed tempura flakes. Yum! It was ready in a few minutes, but they had a lot of pre-made sushi ready to go, too, so I recommend stopping in if you're in a rush and need a quick bite.

This is a great option for takeaway lunch or dinner if you're staying in the area. I stopped in to…read morepick up dinner and there were still some premade options available.

The salmon roll was light on salmon but It was good. The house special was so good. Lots of flavor!!! I would try It again for the first time based on this visit.

It is a Japanese restaurant with a large selection of appetizers and mains, many are seafood bites and sushi rolls. I was here for lunch and they do have lunch specials that are similar to regular Japanese restaurants'. I ordered the braised pork belly ramen. It was ok. It could have used more flavour. It was a little bland. The noodles were nice. The pork belly was fresh but also could have used a little more taste. The ramen were also accompanied by sliced shiitake mushrooms, baby bok choi and asparagus. I would go back and try something sushi like when I am not pregnant.

Gourmet Sushi is a takeout/delivery only restaurant, no dine-in space whatsoever. I found out about…read morethis place while walking around on my lunch hour, re-exploring the area, since I was working at a different location for the past few years (the businesses in the Byward Market and Lowertown have changed a lot in the last few years, but that's another story). Their sushi is delicious, especially for takeout sushi. I decided to get a platter for dinner for my husband and I. I got their Maki Platter A, which is 36 pieces for $47.95. You get 8 pieces of California, 8 pieces of Spicy Salmon, 10 pieces of Dynamite and 10 pieces of Orange Dragon. UberEats was having a special where if you spend $40 or more you save $11. So I ordered through UberEats for pick up and saved $11 :) Note that with this deal you pay taxes on the regular price and then get $11 off the post-tax total. It took about 25 minutes and pick up was quick. Staff were nice. The rolls were delicious. I loved that the rolls were mostly filling with very little rice. I had requested no sesame seeds and that was no problem at all. The California rolls had cucumber and surimi crab and was topped with masago. The Spicy Salmon rolls had raw salmon mixed with spicy mayo and was topped with tempura bits. The Dynamite rolls had shrimp tempura, avocado, cucumbers, and surimi crab and was topped with masago. The Orange Dragon rolls were Dynamite rolls with the additional topping of sliced raw salmon and sliced avocado. While everything was tasty, I did feel that this platter could have used more variety. The Dynamite and Orange Dragon rolls were too similar. Nonetheless, my husband and I enjoyed the platter. I feel it's a good size for dinner for 2 people. Glad to have discovered this sushi takeout joint near my current work place. It's so convenient to pick up a platter for dinner. Street parking or paid parking in the various nearby lots only.

I think the quality has gone up significantly. Highly recommend!

Sushi Sunrice recently opened up on November 23, 2023 where the very short-lived Little Amsterdam…read moreused to be. It was Das Lokal before that and a Kentucky Fried Chicken before that! I didn't even know they existed until they popped up on my UberEats feed. I was looking to grab something for dinner, they are right by my current work location and I'm always up for trying out new places, so I went for it. Their UberEats page was a bit wonky only listing nigiri. So I picked out some nigiri and then got a pop up that said people who ordered nigiri also ordered the Thai chicken stir-fry. The Thai chicken stir-fry wasn't an option I could have originally chosen, but I could add it from the pop up, so I did. I got the smoked salmon nigiri ($5.50 for 2 pieces) and the Thai chicken stir-fry ($18). I was a bit shocked that as soon as I submitted my order, it said my order was ready for pickup, lol. I walked over, which took maybe 10 minutes and they were almost ready. Looks like someone jumped the gun in hitting order ready, but hey, they are new, and I didn't have to wait long at all. I was pleasantly surprised when I got home to discover I received a free miso soup with my order. Yay! The miso soup had chunks of soft tofu and seaweed in it. As well as green onions. The broth was flavourful and not too salty. The Thai chicken stir-fry did not look too appetizing, but let me tell you, it was delicious! It had lots of pieces of tender chicken, yellow bell peppers, onions and basil leaves. The sauce was spicy and bursting with flavour. I loved it. I would totally get this again. The smoked salmon nigiri was also delicious. And the presentation of this one was great. I loved the thin spiral carrots that came with it. It also came with wasabi, pickled ginger and soy sauce. I loved that all the cutlery was compostable Staff were courteous and friendly. They were busy but efficient. There were 3 food couriers picking up food while I was there. And they had other bags ready for pick up. The inside of the restaurant is bright, clean and pretty. They have a painted piano there too, from the Das Lokal days. Prices are pretty reasonable. I discovered that the Thai chicken stir-fry is $15 directly from the restaurant. I'll be buying directly from them next time. I'm looking forward to trying out more items from this restaurant, like the General Tao Chicken and some sushi platters. Glad they opened up near my work. Street parking only, but easier to find since they are a bit north of the main Byward Market area. There's also paid parking lots around. Oh, their UberEats listing has since been fixed and all their menu items are showing up now ;)

Looks like they took over an old diner, and didn't spend any money on the decor. But looks are always secondary to the food. I tried the following; - Everest Combo Momo: Excellent.

A good sampling of various dishes, all new experiences for me and all good. Chicken was a bit spicy for the uninitiated. Service was nice enough and food came out quickly. Overall, a good visit.
