| - I had been craving sushi for a few weeks now...Thursday night after work, my fella decided that after cashing checks, we would hit up Sushi Mon.
This location was closer to where we were, so rather than driving ALL the way over to the other location, we came over here.
In terms of service, it is hands down GREAT service. I'd venture to say better than their other location, as I have NEVER had bad service here. All of the servers were polite, and even joked around with us a few times.
There was one order of unagi that we ended up sending back, because it looked significantly less cooked/seared than the last 3 orders we had received. The servers took it back with no problem, apologizing profusely, and asking if we wanted it prepared again. They brought it back and it was perfect.
Now for the fish!!
The quality of fish at the location, just like the Sahara location, is always good. I've never had anything that was downright BAD, or off.
This trip we had:
Super white: my favourite of all time!! It almost melts in your mouth.
Unagi: Yum. We order this 4 orders (each order is 2 pieces) at a time
Cajun Albacore: Light spice, and very delcious
Ebi: perfect!
Sardines: These were on special, and I'm not a fan. The texture was good, but there was a very fishy aromatic flavor that I'm not fond of. Fella liked them.
Negi-toro: weird texture, but good. (blue fin tuna belly wrapped in seaweed.)
Conch: almost a lemon flavor...delicious.
Garlic tuna: My second favourite of the night. SO flavorful!
Tako (octopus): My first time NOT having this in a salad. It was surprisingly tender, and very good.
We also had fried gyoza (3 or 5 orders, or something like that), seaweed salad, and sake. (Ok, I had a lot of sake. It was delicious, I couldn't help it.)
I love the AYCE option here, as it includes anything off the appetizer menu, and also dessert.
For dessert, I had the green tea creme brulee. If you have NOT tried this yet, you must. It is amazing.
All in all, Sushi Mon remains my favourite AYCE sushi place, and both locations are equally good.
