| - Despite having many years of restaurant eating experience, this is my first review on Yelp. My first visit to Sushi D more than four years ago was very good so I've been eating at here since 2006 on a regular basis even though it's not in my immediate neighbourhood. I've been going to sushi restaurants for more than 10 years and I still come back here for celebrations with friends and family (all who are big experienced sushi eaters) so I can say it's my favourite and everyone pretty much leaves with a positive experience.
The Google search seems to have the address wrong and the street view is outdated (address shows 705 College but actually it's 671 College St.). The owner knows me by face and name though I don't know hers. Most Japanese restaurants in the GTA area are owned by Chinese or Korean and this one is Chinese. Japanese owned restaurants are usually pricier, rarely AYCE, the quality and service is often more refined but not always better (depending on your expectations).
I'm usually the designated person to do the ordering since I'm quite familiar with the menu so we don't waste time trying to figure out what we want (we often do 3-4 rounds as a group). My first suggestion is go as a group of 4 or more when eating sushi if you want to try different things in AYCE places. The service here has always been decent and they are pleasant though they do occasionally miss a dish or two when it's busy. No big deal, order it again on the next round. The price is reasonable and they do charge extra $2 on weekends. Reservations are recommended if you have a group as the restaurant is not big.
The menu and sushi selection is great. The rock shrimp here is probably the most unique item on their menu and a big hit for most of us. It has mayo and garlic so you need to like that too before ordering it. Fresh seaweed salad, mushroom miso soup, fried scallop, spider rolls, enoki maki (mushroom beef), california hand roll (big), tempura squid and shrimp (lightly battered so not as heavy), salmon sashimi (excellent quality) and kani sashimi (crab stick) are our menu favourites. Don't forget to leave room for ice cream... vanilla with chocolate kahlua sauce and tempura bits is my fav but others like the green tea. Overall, a 4.5 star rating based on value for this type of eatery and I'll post some others when I have time... enjoy :)
