| - I remember going to this place when it was part of the Sushi Palace chain.
It was pretty good with a rather large selection, even at lunch time.
Went with a Groupon when it became a Yamaza and the food was still pretty good and the evening selection was even bigger. Lots of non sushi items and there is a weekend selection with even more stuff!
Went back for lunch time, (HEADS UP) They advertise AYCE for $10.95, all other Montreal area Sushi Buffets charge about $15-16. But there is a catch, $11 only gets you 2-3 kinds of soup, imperial rolls and salad as appetizer choices. You also get a selection of 7 Hosomaki and 7 Futomaki Selections. You can choose to pay an extra $5 and get Sashimi , Nigiri and some Chinese items.
There was something very off about the sushi this time around, the rice was simply un-edible. There was simply too much vinegar in it, drowning it in soy or wasabi did not help.
I known this is not meant to be the best sushi ever, but getting the rice right should be the first thing you do when you run a sushi joint. Anything non-sushi is good (fish, soup, avocado, tamago, eel, etc.)
I really hope this was a one-off since my other 2 trips were satisfactory. The decor is nice and the service is more attentive since it's not as busy as Sushi Crescent and the others in downtown West.
