| - This isn't the best sushi in Toronto. (That would be Solo Sushi Ya, or Solo Sushi Bekkan.) Nor is it the best Japanese. But it's pretty great, and it's always reliable. Nothing tastes fishy, the rice is never cold, the tamagoyaki is always sweet, and they have plenty of eel. The vegetarian options are also pretty great: the veggie roll is good (it's hard to miss with sweet potato and avocado), the veggie tempura is still crisp after delivery, the agedashi tofu is soft and lovely, and the salads are surprisingly big for the price. I can't speak for the grilled items, but I really like their spicier rolls and, well, anything containing eel. They also put a dab of wasabi/horseradish on the nigiri before placing the fish over it, which I think is a nice, refreshing touch.
Service-wise, they're always careful to tell us if it's a busy night for them and the delivery might take a while. It's a nice touch, and I don't recall anything ever being really late. Do order early: sushi can't really be rushed. At least, it shouldn't be.
