| - I don't typically have a high opinion of AYCE sushi, but I have to say, Hockey Sushi blew me away. The first thing I noticed was the variety. Beyond the normal sushi and sashimi, Hockey Sushi has a variety of donburi, yaki, noodle dishes, and various stir fries. You could easily have a full, varied meal here and not touch an ounce of a fish. I was surprised to see katsu on the menu, along with other Japanese favorites (no oden, unfortunately, but a guy can dream!).
As for the sushi... the rice was excellent, and in my opinion, better than that of Sushi House just up the street. The fish was fresh, and though some cuts were certainly better than others, I didn't get the sense that they were pulled straight out of a refrigerator, as you'd find at many other AYCE sushi places.
I come to Toronto on business regularly, and going to Hockey Sushi is quickly becoming a ritual for my coworkers and me. The service is fast, the dishes come quickly and well presented, and the loyalty card is a great icing on the cake. Go here.
