Normally I'd give Kanda 3 stars because the sushi is so so especially when compared to other sushi places in Montreal. Really if I'm coming here it's because I'm going for quantity not quality. That being said after my most recent visit you can sure I'll be avoiding this place like the plague.
My boyfriend and I came here for a friend's birthday dinner. The service was spotty in that they forgot to bring a few items that we had ordered but that turned out to be the least of our problems. The sushi was okay but a few pieces just didn't taste right. I thought it might be a question of personal taste because nothing seemed to taste rotten but boy was I wrong. About 24 hours later those off pieces came back to haunt me with a nasty case of food poisoning. Now if it had been just me who had gotten sick I would have given them the benefit of the doubt and not written this review however it was not just me who got sick. My boyfriend also fell victim to food poisoning as did two of his friends and these are the ones we know about. Coincidence? I don't think so.
I really hate writing one star reviews but this was inexcusable. Like I said if it was only me who got sick I wouldn't have rushed to such solid conclusions that the sushi was the culprit but it wasn't just me. I do enjoy the occasional night of all you can eat sushi but next time I won't be coming to Kanda for that.
