This place was surprisingly good, and I would say better than the Steeles/Middlefield location. Just the past Sunday around 8:45 p.m., we made a last-minute reservation for 9 people. We arrived at 9 and still had to wait a good half hour to be seated. I'd highly suggest making reservations ahead of time no matter which part of day, especially on weekends. I was surprised to see this place so packed on a Sunday night with customers continuously walking in after 9.
Food-wise, everything exceeded my expectations. All the small things and tiny details made this place a 4-star. The beef rolls with enoki mushrooms was cooked to perfection- which is often not the case. For once it's not overcooked and didn't taste like rubber. We had to order a few rounds! Loved that tako wasa was on the AYCE menu- wasabi was overpowering though. Sashimi was fresh. Chicken wings weren't the normal kind but seasoned like Taiwanese popcorn chicken. The batter of fried food was served crispy and hot- shrimp tempura was impressive.
Most important thing- 98% of our order came quickly and ACCURATELY! And with the forgotten order, we just reminded the staff and they were fast to respond. Service here was great and they were attentive to our needs. I'll be visiting for another round of AYCE!
