| - My cousin recommended this place for us the other night to eat at for AYCE sushi. It was a cousin's night out and we were all craving sushi, so go figures!
When we arrived to the restaurant, we actually had to wait for a bit before we got a table and it was only the three of us. They said it'd take about half an hour but we ended up getting a table in 15 minutes, which isn't all that bad! (the bigger the group, the more difficult it was to get a table, I am assuming)
Walked in, super spacious and the ceilings were high. The restaurant was packed for a Thursday night and almost all of the tables were occupied with people.
The service was great but the waitress should learn to smile more often because great customer service is what keeps folks coming back, always! (Unless the food is bad, then that's another story...)
The decor was very standard, nothing fancy. Dark wooden tables and little Japanese articles to make the restaurant feel Japanesey (but you can totally tell that it's run by Chinese people, not that it's a bad thing!)
On to the food, oh boy, the food was great! The salmon sashimi pieces were incredibly generous. They were thick and the slices were huge. I was almost full just by eating pieces and pieces of the salmon sashimi. Aside from the thick slices of salmon sashimi, they had "Herb Salmon" and it's honestly the BEST thing that's on the menu aside from the spicy salmon nachos, which is what I'll be discussing about next. The herb flavour infused into the salmon sashimi pieces were so delicious and you can really taste the herbs too and when you squeeze a little bit of that lemon juice on it, it's incredibly tasteful. Besides the herb salmon, you've gotta definitely try the "Spicy Salmon Nachos", these little bite-size goody goody goodness are super tasty! It's like tex-mex infused Japanese cuisine, it was absolutely delicious and the flavour profile worked so well together. Not a lot of people will like it but I definitely loved it and it was the highlight of my dinner.
The rest of the menu were pretty standard, nothing fancy, nothing too spectacular.
Overall, definitely give this place a try and it'll be worth your money. It's looking to be one of my favourite AYCE spots to hit up if they do manage to keep the food exactly like how I had it the next time I go. They lack good service but hey, the food's going to keep me going back.
