Yet another great sushi place in Etobicoke that I love to go to from time to time is Momiji Sushi Bar & Grill on Bloor Street & Royal York. This place is more upscale and fancier than your typical sushi restaurants, so I like to go on special occasions.
They have a small space for parking beside the restaurant, but it's usually pretty full as they share with other places in the plaza. There's another parking lot across the street, which has way more space. It's also a very walkable distance from Royal York TTC Station.
The atmosphere is romantic and warm - perfect for a date. The servers are super friendly and doting as well. They check up on your frequently during your time there and make sure you have everything you need.
For starters, you get the typical salad and miso soup and the appetizer (if you order any). we got the shrimp & vegetable tempura.
The tempura is delicious here. Perfectly crispy and you can tell the freshness of the shrimp. The vegetables were yummy as well.
Finaly, the main... I love getting the love boat combos or love bridge combos - they are a combination of nigiris, sashimis and various rolls on a boat or a bridge. It's perfect for sharing and is of good value. There are different sizes you can choose as well. For this visit, we were hungry, so we got the Love Bridge B.
The nigiri sushi isn't the freshest I've tasted but the rolls were pretty good. I really loved the dynamite rolls and the spicy salmon rolls here.
Overall, it's a great place for a date - but the price is a bit more expensive compared to other sushi places locally... This is probably because of their service standards and atmosphere they're trying to create. I've had my friend say that they served her bad sushi here twice - so this place was a miss for her. But so far, for me it's a hit!
