| - As an avid sushi-eater, this restaurant is by far one of the worst sushi restaurants I have ever been to. It appears to be packed everytime I pass by so I decided to give it a try and I was very disappointed.
I was fine with the fact that the restaurant was packed with hungry students, enjoying their AYCE sushi and even the fact that walk to the restroom was somewhat fishy-smelly and floor-greasy. However, when our order finally came out, my appetite just slowly submerged into the puddle of water under their sashimi plate.
-Tempura was literally battered too many times and it was very oily that I had to peel off the batter.
-Green salad had very sweet tasting white sauce which was watery and unpleasant. (half of the salad bowl was filled with this watery white sauce that was too sweet)
-Sashimi looked horrible. They just cut it in anyway they want, placed it however they wanted, salmon was mushy and very light orange colour, butterfish had this black spots in them, there was puddle of water underneath the sashimi plate, all sashimi tasted unusually slimy which is NOT what it's supposed to taste like.
-Beef rib was done too rare, I do like my beef somewhat tender and medium cooked, but you don't need to make ribs this rare!
-Rolls was made without any effort. Spider roll in partcular had this terrible rotten smell (reminded me of my walk to their washroom) to it and it just didn't taste right, we just had to stop eating there..I have tried many spider rolls from various sushi places and this did not taste like soft shell crab to me. My friend almost threw up and she was gagging!
After trying each of these dishes for about 10 minutes, we decided that we could not eat any of their food anymore. We didn't care if we had to pay for food that we barely ate but our appetite was just thrown out the door. We called up our waitress and told her that we couldn't possibly eat anymore. After long discussion of her trying to justify herself by saying how everyone else is enjoying it and no one else is complaining, we still did not get an apology from her for us being dissatisfied with our experience at their restaurant. We asked her to try the food for herself and she won't. Perhaps their food on typical days are good but what if this particular dish we had was bad for some reason? She should have at least tried it and she would have known what we meant.
This is my first time having to stop eating at any restaurant due to their bad quality of food. I normally eat anything and everything and tend to enjoy food more than typical people, but this was just wrong.
The owner/manager still didn't apologize, or offered to make us new dishes, but at least didn't make us pay for the little food we had.
I love sushi.. but for now, I need a lil break after this experience.
