What on earth happened to this place??
Used to come here almost weekly and it was fine. Great selection, good food quality vs cost ratio i.e. great value for money, decent efficient friendly service.
I'm not usually that bothered by slow service as I tend to eat slowly but this place pushes even my calm patience!
This happened a couple of months ago, but we decided maybe it was just an off night and were willing to give it a second chance this past weekend.
Nah - sadly seems the new norm!
*If you have about three hours to kill and you enjoy looking at the ceiling decor for extended periods while your stomach rumbles in agony starving then come to Sushi Island!
*If you enjoy re-ordering the same items three or four times in the hope that eventually they might remember your order and you'll actually get it then come here!
*If you have absolutely amazing company to chat with and don't even notice that the gap between each plate being brought to the table can be an excruciating 20-30mins then eat here!
*If you like erratic AC - one minute restaurant is stuffy and hot, next AC is on full and it's like sitting in a freezer then come here (and bring lots of sweaters)!
Kitchen/Sushi Chefs - SLOW SLOW SLOW SLOW, did I mention how slow they are at producing orders?
Got to be the slowest Kitchen I've ever ever experienced.
I've never been in a restaurant where you catch all the customers at different tables rolling their eyes, giving acknowledging looks to the other tables, looking bored, playing with phones while waiting for a few morsels of food to hit their table. This happened during both my recent two visits.
Then this past weekend another first for me in a restaurant; all the Customers at different tables started talking to each other in exasperation at the slow service - all asking the same question - What Happened to this Place?? (not to mention it looks dirty and tired now, it needs fixing, repainting and deep cleaning).
