Surprisingly good..... 3.5 Stars
The food gets 4 stars on this visit
Restaurant / atmosphere more like 2-3 stars
The Good:
- Polite and friendly staff
- First time trying sushi Pizza - pretty good here (I know, not very traditional)
- The fish was high quality and all incredibly fresh. On par with some downtown restaurants charging much more
- Broad based menu with Omakase options
- Deluxe Sushi was limited to only 3 choices but incredibly fresh and delicious. A little pricey at $19 for 6 pieces but the quality was well worth it
- They have a menu page for specials - We tried the Tuna Tata (reminds me of Poke from Hawaii) and deep fried Octopus balls - both good
BAD
- "0" atmosphere and it's tiny - 5 tables and 3-4 seats at the sushi bar
- Hard to find the restaurant - a hole in the wall
- I smelled like a small sushi restaurant for the rest of the evening - agree with other reviewers
I had a terrible experience at the sister restaurant - Solo Sushi Ya in Newmarket. It was dirty and the Fish was not all that fresh. Given some questionable recent food quality reviews for Bekkan, makes me wonder if these guys have the correct standards in place. In fairness, I was perfectly fine after my visit to Bekkan.
P.S. - Make reservations
