| - Reasons for 4 star rating. Free parking. Lunch special. $2.00 oysters. $4.95 for 2 pc uni sashimi or sushi. The waitress let us take the massive (kinda private) booth even though it was just two of us. Roll was not put together well. Sashimi was fine, but not the best I've had for that price point.
Food:
Oysters - $2.00 a piece. First round came with a lime wedge and this "sweet and spicy" red sauce on the side. Second round came with lemon slices. She asked if we wanted more red sauce, we didn't and asked for a couple more lemon slices.
The sizes of the oysters were good. A little bigger than I'm used to, but it didn't bother me. I guess plump would be the word for them. The flavour was a little sweet, but mostly briny.
We asked what kind of oysters they were, through her accent I was able to catch ... something "cove". Not my favourite oysters, but for that price I would come back to try this again. I'll ask them for the name again when I do.
Uni sushi - Just under $5.00 for two pieces of uni sashimi or uni sushi. We went for the sushi. For this price, it did not disappoint! Comparable to Gal's sushi uni quality. For this price, I will order it again. The sushi was the right ratio for me.
Sashimi bento box (lunch) - $13? Ish? Came with 13 pc assorted sashimi, miso soup, salad, two piece deep fried tofu, two piece futomaki and white rice.
The deep fried pieces in the box didn't seem freshly deep fried, but they didn't seem old at all either. I liked the tofu more than the sweet potato fotomaki.
The miso soup was good. The salad was better. I always enjoy that carrot, orange, ginger dressing.
The rice was white. Don't think there were any substitutes available.
Sashimi tasted good, but I felt it could have been cut a little more uniform. For assorted they also gave more salmon than anything else. The other pieces were butterfish, snapper and red tuna.
Golden tiger roll - The roll was just okay. It fell apart easily. For that price point ($15), I've had much better. I felt like it was missing some kind of different texture... maybe... either cucumber, tempura bits or eggs could have saved this.
Complementary tea in western mugs. This was nice because this means I can drink my tea without burning my hands since it had a handle.
Complementary jap chae (sweet potato noodles). These were a nice added side to our meal. Much appreciated.
Service:
Waitress was really nice and she did her best to answer any of our questions. I wish I could have had one more tea refill though.
Final thoughts:
For a small sushi restaurant, I may be back for specific items. I would likely pass on any rolls. Will be back for the uni and oysters... I don't think I would come back for dinner, but would be willing to try something else for lunch.
