| - I can now declare this as the best sushi I've tried in Mississauga (emphasis on Mississauga, as I have had better outside of this town).
I chose this restaurant since this was ranked 2nd best sushi spot in the location. I initially went to the restaurant that was ranked 1st position, but since I didn't make a reservation, and it was Friday night, and it was a fairly tiny restaurant, I did not get a table.
Masamune has a very traditional decor, and has only like 5 tables by the entrance that can sit a max of 4 people. Apart from these tables all they have are tables by the sushi bar and private dining rooms that are meant for larger groups and have those traditional low floor chairs.
We luckily got the last table from those 5 by the entrance, which was a relief as I was in no mood for searching for an alternative restaurant following rejection from the previous.
Our server was very friendly and gave us hot tea immediately. The prices here were a bit steep from other sushi places in the area that I've been to. I also noticed that the crowd had many Japanese groups, which would suggest authentic food should be served.
I was craving for a selection of maki and sushi, which they had but was too large for one person, so they happily accommodated me by replacing some of the rolls with vegetarian ones so that my vegetarian brother could share with me. This I really appreciated.
My brother got the vegetarian soba noodles, which come in a broth, and they were courteous enough to come back and warn us that the broth contains fish flakes- another bonus.
The food took some time to arrive, but when it finally came it did not disappoint. I could tell that the sushi was the best quality because there was not too much rice and from my experience after eating at Hiro Sushi, I learned that traditional sushi should have just a bit of rice, while the fish on top should have a longer 'tail'. This is exactly how the sushi was here. It almost replicated the sushi from Hiro Sushi.
The last piece of sushi was the one that made me realize that they do serve quality, as they gave me one sushi that consisted of the fatty tuna, which literally melted in my mouth. It was divine.
The soba noodles was served piping hot and according to my brother it was good, but he still prefers ramen rather than soba noodles, so I can't really say much on that.
From now on this restaurant is on my top list of sushi joints in Mississauga.
