Taste: 9/10
Appetizers are good in general. Steven really likes the chicken cartilage and the yoshinoya's beef. I was excited about the grilled jumbo shrimp but it turned out to be just regular sized shrimp. It was still good. Curry cuttlefish could use more salt. Baked avocado seafood was quite heavy.
The special rolls are really good (snow season, jade roll were unique, black dragon and spider rolls are good too). Their sushi have a good fish to rice ratio, and the fish is fresh. The dinner menu has a nice selection of sashimi, including scallop sashimi that I've never seen at other places before. Steven likes the beef sashimi and the herb salmon sashimi (salmon sashimi marinated in some lemon juice and herbs). The scallop sashimi is tender and slightly sweet, though no matter what quantity of it you write down on the order sheet, they only give you a small lump of it.
Desserts here are pretty much the generic AYCE sushi desserts. Mango yogurt is really yummy (I had 10 huehuehuehue), and so is the creme brulee. The amber cake is really a jelly with goji berries in it, wasn't so great. Puddings and mousses were pretty on point.
Value: 7/10
Decent selection for the price, fish to rice ratio is pretty good for most rolls. The portions are not too big, so you don't have to about not being able to finish what you ordered.
**Average cost per diner: $20 per person for lunch, $30 per person for dinner (add $2 if for weekend/holiday)
Service/Convenience: 7/10
The place is easily located in Bridlewood Mall. The seating is not too crowded and we were seated fairly quickly on a Friday night. Our first round of orders arrived quickly, but subsequent rounds took a lot longer. I'm actually quite impressed with the fact that they never missed a single order, even if they did bring it slowly.
Would go back? Sure, mainly for the scallop sashimi. Also the place is fairly close to us, so its very convenient.
Would recommend to friend? Yup, great place for AYCE at a decent value in Scarborough/Markham region.
Similar places: Any AYCE sushi restaurant, but as far as we know this is the only one that serves scallop sashimi
**Disclaimer: Average cost per diner constitutes the amount (per person) we eat to get full without drinks. Total cost is usually divided between 2 diners, one of whom can regularly eat 7 slices of XL pizza
