| - Going into this, I'm going to say that this will be a fun review to write. Here's why.
The place opened only four or five weeks before writing this review. I'm glad to report that for an all you can eat restaurant, the food was pretty much the best I've found in the city. That's saying a lot and they have dethroned my favourite Sushi place up near Yonge & Eg.
As an AYCE Sushi place, I'd like to give them a 5-star rating but they are experiencing some growing pains. For the time being, they are understaffed and thus the service is slow. When we arrived, there were only 4 or 5 tables of customers, out of many many more, and it still took 20+ minutes before we got to place our first order.
As I understand, they are also having difficulty setting up their iPad ordering system so that will take a few more weeks to get in place. Once that's done, our first "problem" will be resolved.
I would say that their staff are also fairly inexperienced because we never had our water/tea refilled without requesting it and even then, it took 10-15 minutes after several requests to make it happen. With all of these "complaints," I can't give too much of a hit on this review because I'm confident that they will be resolved over time.
On the way out, the manager spoke to us and asked for feedback on how they can improve so I'm sure the place is in good hands from a management perspective.
The price is also a bit high compared to the competition BUT that increased price is reflected in the significantly higher quality and selection of food. Their dessert menu is shockingly diverse and interesting compared to any other AYCE sushi place in the city!
KaKa, you've won my loyalty and you will see me return again several times as we wander through the year.
Congrats!
