In the land of Vaughan where Italian food rules supreme, a decent AYCE sushi joint is hard to come by. And a futuristic one is even harder to come by!
I had seen Shiitake Sushi open its doors in vaughan near Pine Valley Drive and Hwy 7, several months ago while pulling into the same plaza to enjoy a calorie infused burger at Holy Chuck. It's been on my list since then and only recent did I remember to stop in.
To begin the devote here is amazing. Very modern, almost club/lounge like. Fits within the Woodbridge culture perfectly. We were seated quickly for lunch.
The innovation of having the iPad for ordering at every table makes for the lunch experience to be even quicker. No more waiting for your server to fly by and pick up your scrap of paper.
The food was on par with most AYCE lunch offerings. But the selection went far beyond just rolls, maki and hot options. I gorged myself on massive Korean short ribs. Like massive. Had noodle dishes, a miso soup as well as the regular tempura, sushi, rolls, make etc offerings.
Price for lunch was great $38 for two, tax and tip included.
Id be back again to try dinner to rate them on their sashimi offerings.
