I decided to try this place based on Bernie C's review.... for a new AYCE sushi joint, I was not disappointed by the quality of the restaurant.
Food:
- Salmon sashimi was fresh and not too thinly sliced. Order up!
- Regular rolls (ie. spicy salmon, dragon rolls)... the rolls were quite thick and heavy on the rice...PASS. Order specialty rolls instead!
- Didn't get to try a lot of specialty rolls as the regular ones filled me up... I would definitely recommend Volcano Roll though! Very cheesy with salmon/crab meat and cream cheese deep fried in spicy mayo.... YUMMY!
- Fried pork cutlet soba noodles (which were ramen and not really 'soba')... pretty good and not a huge portion either!
- Menu quite extensive; dessert menu for example had sesame and red bean ice cream which a lot of other places don't have... deep fried banana and mousse cake slices were also bonuses!
Service:
- There's a bell you could ring so that you don't have to constantly flag down the waiter... yay!
Price:
- Adults are $13.99 lunch, $21.99 dinner + $1.00 Fri/Weekends/Holidays.... this seems to be pretty reasonable to go when you're super hungry on a non-holiday
- I docked 1 star because I went on Christmas day and they charged dinner price for lunch ON TOP of the $1 holiday premium... (didn't expect them to charge dinner for lunch though). Even with 15% discount with cash, it was pretty expensive for lunch.
Consensus: Decent new AYCE in town to go when it's not a holiday or weekend... may be back to try again with a bigger party. Next time I might try the spicy salmon hand rolls that everyone else is raving about...
