  • I had teppanyaki dinner here last night and overall the food was unsatisfactory so I won't be back any time soon. I already had a bad experience at the Matsuda at the Steeles location which I gave 2.5 stars to. However, I tried to have an open mind and enjoy the food. The parking situation was a little iffy because they have about 10 spots at the front of the lot which were all full of course and the space at the back is all owned by a school which had "Private Property" signs all over. I'm sure it's extremely rare for someone to get their car towed there but I couldn't help but feel agitated thinking about it. The service was much better than the other location because it was much less busier. To put a disclaimer though...the group I went with had regular customers so I feel that my opinion on their service would be heavily biased since I felt like they went out of their way to treat us better. However, I can say with confidence that they are not understaffed like the Steeles location. Orders were not missed and the overall atmosphere was better. I found the menu to be lacking in variety compared to other AYCE restaurants for this price. The raw fish was not good enough even considering it is winter season so the quality in fish is worse than normal. The beef tataki was OK. I did not order any hand rolls. The sushi rolls were really mediocre. The tempura was way below average quality because the batter was bad and the sweet potato tasted strange. Their miso soup again was really mediocre. However, the fish/mushroom soup which came in a large pot they specially made for us (perks of going with regulars I guess) was delicious. The saving grace of the meal was the meat they used for the teppanyaki specifically the sirloin steak. It was high-quality, tender and cooked to perfection. The duck breast was not bad either. The dessert options are similar to the other Matsuda which all come in the small glass like mango yoghurt, jello and various mousses. Ice cream options were limited to vanilla, red bean, green tea and mango. I tried the mango one and it wasn't as good as the one at Ten Ichi but it did not taste cheap and overly sugary at least. To sum it all up nicely, this Matsuda has better service than the Matsuda on Steeles but has worse food and vice versa. I would not go to either Matsuda's because there are much better options for Japanese AYCE for the same prices that do not falter in service and food quality.
