| - Last week my boyfriend and I checked out Hokkaido.
I liked this restaurant for quite a few different reasons, good location, quiet, good food and quick service. This place is located at mount pleasant and eglinton which is not far from our house which is a plus, they also have free underground parking Which is another bonus. We came for a light lunch, and I was surprised to see the price was only 11.99, which was nice because most sushi places run around $12-15 for the same type of selection (plus parking). Aside from us, the place was pretty empty. There was one other family and one other single lady. It seemed strange but it was actually quite refreshing considering how most other AYCE sushi joints in Toronto are usually packed full, even at lunch (akkaido). We ordered dynamite roll, California roll, sweet potato tempura avocado roll, and vegetable tempura. It all came quickly and the presentation was nice. They were smaller rolls with less rice which is exactly what I was looking for. The tempura pieces were also very large.
They staff was very nice and friendly and encouraged us to order more, unlike other places I've been to that give you less and forget your order. I didn't feel rushed at all. 4/5
