| - This is a Japanese restaurant that is located right around the corner, adjacent to the Westin, Toronto Prince hotel. Upon arrival and check into my hotel, I was given a $20 gift certificate to a dinner at either the Japanese, Chinese, or Persian restaurant that they have there. I Katsura-the Japanese cuisine. On the second night. I decided I would go there to redeem my coupon. It was fairly busy but I did not need a reservation, I walked right in. It's took over 10 minutes for anyone to come up to me. I ordered a water, pretty simple. That took about five minutes to get to me. Again, I only saw one woman working there and she had about eight tables. I ordered a miso soup and a seaweed salad. That took a while to get to me. Once the soup came to me, I asked for a spoon and it never came. Maybe it's custom to drink out of the bowl, but that's what I ended up doing anyway. There is Wi-Fi there, thank goodness because my main objective was to get two hours of work done while enjoying Japanese food. The Japanese food is pricey for the quality of it. It's probably the worst quality of Japanese food I've ever had. I then ordered an eight piece sushi sampler so that I could taste the variety of everything. The portions were big for one person as I think it's designed for sharing. I only ate half. And it wasn't great. I had two coupons and they only accepted one. The $20 gift certificate they accepted. But, the five dollar gift certificate that I had from not having my cleaning service come, did not work there. It took a while for me to get my check, again. Also, I trying to figure out what I was going to give her fir a tip by using my currency calculator, and she stood over me with the credit card machine as I was trying to figure it out. I asked for more time and I don't think she understood. Overall, between the service and the quality of the food I would skip this one. Even with a $20 gift certificate.
