| - Ahhhh, sometimes I wonder about my decision making skills, tonight was one of those nights. I was in a sushi mood but it was 10:30 and not too many options at this hour nearby. Mikado's, my first choice, was too late for pick up, I would have settled for sushi shop but they were closed. As I drove down Sherbrooke I saw Soba and Noodles, they were still open and quite a few people were inside, I quickly thought over my options, which were pick up something at Metro or McDonald's, neither one appealing.
I had my heart set on sushi and I should have waited till tomorrow but I was in a stubborn mood and thought, what the hell, can't be that bad so I parked and went in.
The staff was nice and I could see the cooks working and I didn't get a super clean feeling but it was too late for much else so I ordered.
I'm not really into rolls, so I ordered Nigiri, eel, red snapper, salmon and yellowtail tuna. Against my better judgement I decided to check out their reviews on yelp while I waited, oh no , not good...mediocre and someone got really sick. I already paid and my order my order was ready so I surrendered to the experience...I got into my car and I peeked into my container and felt that the rice was warm, hate that...as for smell, seemed ok.
I got home and quickly dove in, free of expectations. Not great... Big slabs of mediocre fish on huge slabs of warm rice, not the melt in your mouth experience I was in the mood for. The ginger had an overly sweet, chemical taste which didn't help either.
All in all, it's one of those places that serves up a ton of food, too many choices to truly excell at anything in particular.
I obviousky wasnt expecting amazing but i wasn't impressed, I won't be coming back....
