| - There are four or five Kanda sushi restaurants in Montreal and this Kanda on Queen-Mary is definitely the best of the lot. In order to get high value for your money I'd suggest that you go to Kanda for lunch during the week. This way you'll only pay around $20 (tips and taxes included), however if you go there in the evening or on a weekend you could end up paying around $35 with not much improvement on the menu.
They have got a big dining hall with very friendly staff and very efficient service. I stick to Sushi but you can order rice, chicken or soup dishes (they're on the menu) or dumplings and vegetable Tempuras as well. Their best item in my opinion is Salmon Sashimi which is basically a big morsel of raw salmon. Try it with their pink shredded-ginger and you won't be disappointed. As for their Sushis, you can go ahead with Kanda Special, California rolls, Caviar and Eel varieties, all of which are excellent. Their Japanese dumplings and vegetable Tempuras are very good too.
The dinner buffet has all you can eat ice cream too but in my opinion it's a bit of an overkill. After having stuffed yourself with all the Sushis, Sashimis, Dumplings and Tempuras, it really would be difficult to have a go at your ice cream. That's why, in my opinion, the real value for money for this buffet comes out if you go there for lunch when you can have an AYCE for only around $20.
I go there once or twice a month and their quality is very consistent (both for the food and for the service). This restaurant is always crowded at lunch time from people from nearby offices or even from UdeM students (it's that inexpensive hehe).
So if you want to have a go at unlimited good quality Sushi without spending a lot of money, I'd recommend you go to Kanda Queen-Mary.
