| - The food is good here - but it's pricey.
Service is good, but very leisurely, and the place is usually quiet and only moderately busy even at peak hours, so be prepared for a long relaxing meal as this is no place for a quick lunch (strange considering its proximity to the airport).
As this used to be a pizza hut, I am very surprised how well they've managed to re-decorate the place and the overall visual ambiance is much better than a lot of sushi places I've been to. That being said, for some reason they usually decide to play annoying pop music from the radio (which means there are commercials all the time) at a volume that is too high, which definitely kills the mood.
Also, the menu is a little on the pricey side and does not compete with downtown/Brampton prices. Because of this, it's hard to choose lots of different things without spending too much, and there aren't many good combos that have a bit of everything, which makes this place not so good for a first time sushi-goer.
The food is actually really great. I can't vouch too much for the Korean side of things, but all of the Japanese dishes are top quality, and the sushi chef is extremely traditional with presentation (even when you get take-out). However, the staff were unwilling to make a simple substitution usually common in downtown sushi places, even though I offered to pay for this substitution. (I wanted yam tempura roll instead of California).
In conclusion, this place is definitely not worth going out of your way for, but it's one of the only sushi places in the area and definitely is not the worst I've been to. For take-out, I'd definitely recommend Sushi-Ya across the street instead as they are faster and better quality, but if you want to sit down and have a meal (or care for some Korean food) Sushi Dragon is better.
