| - It was nearly 9 PM when I ventured through the dark to Sushi 7 for my first visit.
I wasn't getting my hopes up, knowing that many "quick sushi" places would only have dried-out, premade combos sitting in their display case by this time of night.
Sushi 7 was an exception. My combo was made to order while I waiting in the dining area, and everything was as fresh as could be.
The service was outstanding. The cashier/server greeted me enthusiastically, and recommended a few popular combos. Both she and the chef gave me a warm thank you on my way out, saying they hoped I liked it.
As for the sushi itself, I was pleasantly surprised. Even items as simple as an avocado roll were well-made, using attractive and generous cuts. The large maki were varied, fresh, and had great flavour. The fish was very good, and not at all dry.
I wouldn't say this is the place to find the absolute highest grade of traditional sushi, but for the hybrid rolls we know and love here in Canada, Sushi 7 is a cut above your average sushi shop.
