| - Disclaimer: sushi was amazing! If my rating was based solely on the sushi itself, it would have been a 5.
Bestie and I were craving some sushi this afternoon. Did a quick YELP! search today to find some! We were directed to Sushi Crescent.
Walked in, were warned it was closing in half an hour - which was fine. We are sushi queens and have no issue speed-ordering. The gentleman who greeted us was very pleasant and welcoming, even though we walked in so late.
We were served some water as we sat down; however, not really spoken to by the waitress. We wrote down our first order, sat it on the edge of the table and waited. A minute passed... 5 minutes passed. The waitress had been in and out of our section a few times by this point. Finally, we had to call her over to take our order. She snatched the paper off our table and disappeared. We were not offered drinks.
It was a longer than average wait for the sushi. Which wouldn't have been a bad thing if the restaurant wasn't closing in fifteen minutes. We prepped our last call order of sushi just in case.
Sushi and rolls showed up about ten-twelve minutes later. We had to call her back to our table again to take our last call order because she basically threw the plates on our table and turned.
The shrimp sushi I had was amazing. Fresh and appetizing. The rolls - dynamite, red dragon, kamikaze, mango salmon, avocado cucumber, and spicy shrimp tempura - were great! They had just enough rice in them! Every flavour could actually be tasted and enjoyed. Overall, the food was great! Definitely recommend to anyone.
Last but not least, I had basically just taken my last bite when the waitress showed up again with bills in hand and asked us if we'd like to pay by card. So, being rushed out of the restaurant, we decided to pay by card. Next thing I know, I hear the waitress say 'you know the tip isn't included right?' to my friend. My friend tips in cash, typically after the waiter/waitress leaves our table... As is typical at any reataurant. We were both quite taken aback by this and decided to just get up and leave (we had both completed our transactions btw).
We thanked the man who initially seated us and took off.
Service = Boo.
Food = Great!
Do I recommend? Yes. If you are patient enough to wait around and enjoy the atmosphere.
