| - Ugh. I used to come here years ago and my impression of this place was never really good. So I stopped going. Whenever my friends suggested sushi on Queen Street W, I'll say, 'Crispy Roll!' http://www.yelp.ca/biz/crispy-roll-toronto#hrid:AUB_dxKeEyUr3VYoX2iNlw, which is just down the street and has rarely disappointed. The other night, just to try something different, I came here again with a fellow yelper who raved about this place being inexpensive and good. I wish I hadn't listened!
Service was OK. The food was sup-par. There were some snacks that came with the meal - edaname, soy beans, kimchi, some spicy potato thing. We shared the maki sushi platinum combination (6 pieces each of california, spicy salmon and dynamite maki) and a separate maki order where the rice layer was too thick and mushy, the seaweed texture was that of something that's been sitting around too long and had soaked up too much liquid, and the tempura shrimp in the dynamite roll had too much batter and lacked any crunch. Nothing looked or tasted particularly fresh.
Sigh. My stomach, taste buds and wallet are all sad that I wasted precious calories, time and money on this place. Sigh.
