WHAT I GOT:
- Torched Salmon, Torched Unagi, Torched Red Snapper, and Torched Tuna. A promotion of buying 12 pieces led to an additional salad, soup, and pop for free.
TASTE: [4/5]
- I'm a big fan of blow torched sushi and pressed sushi. I liked how their menu had options I haven't seen at other sushi restaurants. Each type tasted unique and my favourite had to be the Torched Salmon and Torched Red Snapper. Both had toppings and sauces that complemented the torched flavour. Additional ingredients were tucked away inside each pressed sushi which kept every bite interesting and flavourful. The Torched Unagi also had an interesting seaweed seasoning on the bottom of each piece.
PRESENTATION: [4/5]
- At first I was questioning why it took about 10 minutes to make 12 pieces of sushi but once they came out, I found that each type of pressed sushi looked unique and skillfully assembled.
SERVICE: [5/5]
- The cashier was attentive to the details of my order and kept me updated on how soon our food would come. He also went out of his way to provide additional servings of the sides (e.g. salad and soup) for my partner and other guests in the restaurant. But wait there is more, they ran out of simple salad but made and offered us seaweed salad instead. They went above and beyond for us and other guests in the restaurant.
THE LAST WORD:
- I would come here if you like blowtorched sushi and pressed sushi. TORCH has types of sushi you won't find at other restaurants and therefore deserves a visit. Expect friendly service, beautiful pressed sushi, and interesting flavours with every bite.
