| - Went to Edamame Sushi for dinner last evening with some trepidation, having read some lukewarm reviews, to say the least.
As soon as we walked in the door, we were assaulted by the extreme noise level; the place was busy, and there is nothing whatever to help absorb sound. This was actually the biggest fault we found.
We enjoyed everything we ordered:
Kaiso Salad (seaweed, cucumber, mixed seafood, Japanese vinegar)
Miso Soup (served with a spoon, which is unusual)
Tempura (shrimp, mushroom, eggplant)
Siu Mai
Enoki Beef Roll (very tiny)
Calamari (plate, which was 3 small rings)
Pad Thai
Korean Beef
Thai sauce shrimp with veggie
Tokyo Roll
Toronto Roll
Sashimi (Butterfish, White Tuna, Red Snapper, Snow Crab (shredded, but nice flavour)
Desserts: Chocolate ice creaam, Mango Yogurt (actually an ice cold milk pudding with mango puree on top, served in a small bowl, looked like a poached egg and was very refreshing).
Hubby is not a huge sushi fan, so Edamame is a great choice for us. There is more of a diversity of flavours and cuisines, as well as a good selection of sushi - which will keep us both happy.
Next time will order the grilled salmon belly; when a diner at the next table tasted his he just kept repeating "Oh my God" - said it was delicious.
Service was very good. The only two issues were that we ordered 4 shrimp tempura, received 3, and when requesting our bill asked for 2 glasses of ice water, which never came.
We will definitely return, but would very much like to see something done about the noise level.
