I'm beginning to think that the smaller a restaurant is, the better quality food and service you will receive. Tenshi is a great example! As a side note, when my husband and I go for sushi, we eat the real stuff (not just California rolls and Avocado rolls), so please keep this in mind when reading my reviews.
- Reasonable prices
- Cozy atmosphere
- Quality fish
- Good service
In particular, I'd like to talk about Inari Nigiri or tofu cakes. I don't usually eat this, but Tenshi Sushi's version definitely made this particular dish one of my favourites! Tenshi's Inari was not overly sweet and contained sushi rice, black sesame seeds and fresh slivers of cucumber. Yum! It was quite a hefty and delectable dish compared to the Inari I ordered from Sushi Ichiban on McLeod trail... ack, too sugary with barely any rice inside.... and no sesame seeds or cucumber!
We also ordered Tuna & Salmon don and although the fish was fresh, the rice was a bit too dry for my liking. I won't knock off a star for this because their sushi pieces were just too good.
I was not a fan of the sketchy tenant-shared restroom which is located just behind the kitchen area in the unglamorous guts of the building.
