Firstly, I want to say this: I have eaten at Hub Sushi at least a dozen times in the past year alone. I must have credit card receipts to prove it lying around here. I have noticed that in the past half year, the quality of their sushi has gone down. It USE to be my go-to sushi joint but something has changed recently.
My most recent experience was tonight. Out of nowhere, I had a craving for sushi (thanks Instagram feed), and so I ordered their sashimi/sushi combo (15/20 pieces) which came out to about $45 after taxes.
Upon arriving home, I unpacked the take out bag and realized they didn't provide soy sauce. Fortunately, I have soy sauce at home but come on, sushi take out without soy sauce is like fish and chips without the tartar sauce. Inexcusable.
Finally, the pieces of tuna they provided were not just fishy.. It was borderline rotten. Have you ever left a piece of fish in your fridge say past two or three days it's fresh date? You know that strong smell? Well yah.. That's what I had AND I was stupid enough to bite into it. Look, I totally get that I'm not paying for Jiro Ono quality sushi at $45 but I've had experiences of sushi at places like T&T (keep your snickering to yourself :p) and Mac Sushi (end of day sale anyone?) where even they managed to not serve me fish past its due date.
Sorry but that straw broke the camel's back. I do NOT recommend going there ever again. It's sad because I've actually recommended so many people to eat here in the past. No more. I'm usually pretty easy going about giving places a few chances (which I believe I have done with this restaurant) because I can appreciate that sometimes, we just don't have our best day everyday but my past few experiences here have exposed a serious problem at this place.
TheRealPY gives this place two thumbs down for now.
Happy eatings everyone!
