| - I've been here twice in February, with vastly different experiences.
For my first visit, we ordered the Kalbi lunch box and Toronto Roll. I figured $11.99 for Kalbi was a good deal since it's usually a premium item at other restaurants. But the roll that it comes with is a yam roll, not a california roll. I used my yam roll to compliment the fish from the Toronto roll. The Toronto roll is actually great. I like to think of it as a chirashi on a salmon roll instead of rice. It's their most expensive roll, but for good reason.
My second visit, we ordered a kalbi bento, a salmon bento, and an udon combo (comes with california roll). I don't know what happened during this visit, but the service was non-existent. We didn't get any service... no tea, no spoons or even soya sauce. Why would they serve udon without a spoon? Or a california roll without soya sauce? Asking them for these things took forever. The spoon took so long to come, that I had to personally walk to the front of the restaurant to get one. The lady took a dirty spoon, wiped it with a nearby towel and gave it to me. I re-wiped it with a napkin and tea when I got back to my table. As for the food, the salmon bento wasn't worth the money, nor was the udon. Udon came with just veggies, crab meat, a fish ball and naruto.
AYCE sushi in Markham/Scarborough for lunch is $14.99-$16.99. It's hard to justify coming to an a la carte sushi for the same amount of money but with worse service and similar quality of food. I can't recommend this place unless you stick with the rolls (try Toronto roll) only.
