The BF and I came here on the 13th before V-day to celebrate early and avoid the crowds. We had previously tried to Mi Ne in Richmond Hill and liked it so we thought we'll give this one a try. Not sure if they are related, the food and menus looks similar but they have different websites and the RH location doesn't appear on their place mat?
Happy Boat (for 2people) $60
16 sushi, 21 maki, 12 sashimi, 2 miso soups & 2 green salads
Got this to share. Prices are slightly more expensive then the RH location and other sushi restaurants in the area. Sushi and sashimi were decently fresh and a good size(sashimi not too thin & fish to rice ratio good for sushi). I liked that the rice were thin in the maki rolls, but they were huge! Took me 2-4 bites to finish each one! BF really likes the way they make the spicy salmon roll. 49 pieces would usually be a good amount to make us comfortably full, but we were stuffed. Dinner also came with oranges as dessert, which was good for us to help with digestion. Haha.
The ambience was nice, more modern looking then the RH one. It was around 7:30pm on a Friday night and it wasn't empty but it wasn't crowded either so noise level was good for a nice and quiet pre-V-day dinner. Service was good. We were given a small 2 person table at first. The boat came and it was so big, it crowded the table, so they dragged over another 2 person table so we could eat more comfortably. The waitresses came to check on us several times. One offered to bring us more tea and forgot, but when we asked again she quickly got us our own pot.
It was V-day so they gave us a cute little paper rose at the end of dinner. Bonus points for this little extra touch. Overall I like the ambience of this location more, BF thinks the food at the RH location is slightly better. But I think I'll come back to this one if I want a nice quiet dinner with friends. There is also wifi w/ password.
