| - I have only dined here once, but the combination of dishes we ordered on that particular night were exceptional. We were quite simply blown away by the food - with the standout, for me, being the "Spicy Tuna Sashimi."
The sauce in that dish was unique, and extremely flavourful. I give big props for something that doesn't taste identical to every other restaurant.
In fact, all the dishes, compared to their peers at other restaurants, had a little something special about them. At least it seemed so on our visit.
However, pricing seemed to be a little higher than comparable dishes elsewhere. It's a consideration, but I think you get what you pay for sometimes.
Atmosphere-wise, the restaurant seemed especially quiet. Even for a weeknight. Not a lot of pop or vibe to it.
Still, very enjoyable. I came to eat a great meal, and I was not disappointed.
And upon reflection afterwards, a big intangibles jumped out as well: convenience.
My usual sushi standby is in Kensington, which I visit fairly regularly for lunch. But I never bother going there for dinner.
Why?
Well, if something is too much of an ordeal, I really can't be bothered. And the parking situation in Kensington quite often sucks.
So a GOOD sushi restaurant next to adequate parking is welcome for someone like myself. As I have been known to say, "minimum effort, maximum gain."
