| - +.5 for service
Now that I'm in Seneca College for 8 months, I'm most likely going to be in the Yonge/Finch area for food quite often. Checking off the list of places I haven't been to yet, I decided to try this place for lunch.
First reaction to this place is that the A/C was either not enough or was simply not on, because it felt rather uncomfortably warm inside (especially today considering it was hot and humid). At least I got a seat and didn't have to wait?
It took a bit for me to be served a tea and menu, but eventually I was. The place was full for 11:45am and there were only two servers, so I'll excuse them. I eventually ordered the sushi and sashimi lunch (L16), which came with a soup and salad.
The soup and salad tasted quite decent, not too bland and not too salty for the soup and a fairly delicious dressing for the salad. My order came in almost immediately after, and my initial reaction was the little flower decoration to my top left of the plate. Quite cute!
Fish variety was definitely lacking compared to other sushi restaurants, but considering it was simply a lunch special I didn't take it too personally. However, the pieces were quite lukewarm. I generally like my sushi/sashimi/roll to be somewhat cool, but these were definitely on the warm side. The salmon and butterfish were definitely fresh, while the tuna was not as fresh. The california roll didn't come with tobiko, which kinda disappointed me as that's the best part in my opinion.
Total amounted to $13.50 and I paid $15 total, which I think is reasonable for this place. It's overall nothing special, but not bad either; a passable place that I would stop by if I'm craving sushi at Yonge/Finch.
