| - First time in Toronto, so it's my first time for Toronto sushi...or Canadian sushi, for that matter. Thanks to Yelpers for pointing the place out.
I ordered the Gold Sashimi; it came with 18 pieces, including amaebi, maguro, tako, hamachi, ika, hokkigai, white tuna, & sake. Not a bad spread; and they didn't include fillers like egg(although I do like it), kani, shrimp, and other really cheap sushi. Very generous portions, but I could tell some of the fish was frozen/thawed several times(tuna looked great but was watery, as were the shrimp, and the ika was still icy.) I would give the sushi 3/5.
I also got the grilled squid, a small Sapporo, miso soup, & salad...all for...and here's the kicker... $27! My meal, tax, tip, everything, was $36CAD! And that's not even ordering takeout, which is apparently 20% cheaper. With a favorable exchange rate right now, at $.79:$1CAD, this was probably the most affordable sushi I've ever eaten for the quality.
The decor is lacking, so this isn't a first date type of place, but the food, compared to the price, is a no-brainer. I would like to come back some day and try other things on the menu; the squid was great so I'm guessing their other cooked items are excellent as well.
