This is usually my go to place for a late dinner. I like the wide selection of different sushi(they also have brown rice sushi, if you’re feeling healthy). I usually get their chicken teriyaki or salmon teriyaki but they are on the saltier side. If you’re feeling hungry, they also have a lunch box option that gives you a big portion(tempura, teriyaki, salad, and rolls). They also have a nigiri combo. This place is small but clean and the staff are very nice and always smiling when taking my order. The price is decent for the food too, just wish they can lessen the salt.

I go to this sushi place not for the sushi but for the chicken yakisoba! I just love it. It’s on the salty side according to my mom but I like savoury food. Sushi for me are ok and like the fact that you can refill your own tea. This place is small. Wish they have more sitting. The place is clean and staff are friendly. I also like the fact that it’s close to my favorite gelato place I would recommend this place is you like to try the yakisoba.

I really did want to rate this place higher and find myself wishing(again) that half stars existed in Unilocalland. This would be a 2.5* place to be fair. The staff are friendly once you get their attention and the food comes relatively quickly, my best guess is that there are separate sushi chefs for the take out and eat in orders. There is a small, clean, no frills seating area… comfortable enough to eat your food and go.(I just counted 10 seats… so you can literally count the amount seating space on your fingers! Yes! Finally get to use that line!) Finally … did it pass the salmon roll and toro nigiri test?(If you’ve never seen any of my other reviews or met me… this is the standard on which I benchmark my sushi … always eaten straight up, no soya sauce etc) Sadly the answer is no. The fish to rice ratio in the salmon roll was poor, only a sliver of fish swimming in a sea of rice. Considering that the quality of fish and price is similar to sushi garden, I would expect a similar level of salmon roll. The toro nigiri was tasty and the fish portion was alright, but of the 4 pieces that I ordered, 3 were half thawed. To be fair, the waitress did warn me that the fish was cold. Anyway, it’s a decent place to stop for a nibble if you are in the highgate shopping area.

This place needed a few chances to win me over, but now I have found my favorites on the menu and go about twice a week. Spicy Tuna Crunch Roll = Awesome. Call ahead for faster service as they are very busy from about 5 – 7:30pm.

I do not recommend this place at all ! They have no menus so you have to share a counter menu with scribbled out prices that once were $ 3 bucks cheaper. The portions were small and very expensive and the gomae was sick… served in a small bowl of brown puke. Not going back

was in the neighborhood after getting some frames downstairs. was feeling peckish and the person iat hakim optical said it was good after i asked her opinion about it. it was really good. the spicy tuna crunch roll and the caterpillar roll were delightful, caterpillar roll is a dynamite roll with avocado on top and crab meat. spicy tuna had this crunch-y crumble that added zest to it, and the spicy tuna was good. i am still thinking about how yummy the tuna crunch roll was. tasted v. fresh, portions were good. this was pricy for a student but relatvely decent. spent 17 $ on two specialty rolls and a half order of salmon sashimi it is definitely a small to-go place that i wish was closer to where i lived! :)

This has quickly become my favourite sushi go to place. It may look like not much from the outside, don’t judge with your eyes, judge with your mouth. My wife has mentioned this place is an office favourite for lunch. I’ve dined in 3 times in the past few months and have noticed that they do a booming take out business. They do brown rice sushi, a huge plus in my opinion. Try their deep fried California roll, it’s the best one I’ve had since Oyama sushi stopped making decent ones. The sushi list isn’t massive but will accommodate most tastes. They often have unique specials that are noteworthy.

I didn’t expect to be blown away by the little sushi restaurant at High Gate Mall, but I was a little disappointed. The fish in my maki rolls were barely visible by the time I got to my 5th piece. The middle pieces were normal, but the end pieces that the chef cuts off were mostly rice. Speaking of rice, it was a little hard as well. Fresh Box would be somewhere I would eat again if I was too hungry to drive another 10 minutes. I appreciate that they take Visa and MC though.

This is my go-to sushi place near my house. The prices are standard, the sushi is fresh and they are pretty fast with the to-go. Good location, very friendly staff(both cashier and sushi men) and decent sized rolls on a expansive menu. I always choose this place.

Cozy little sushi place in my neighborhood. My first time here was with a friend before going to the gym right across, quick bite and it did the job. This place can get busy around dinner time as people like to order takeout, but don’t worry as their service is efficient and food still good. Second visit by myself I tried their salmon sashimi again(!) and the deep California roll. Sashimi is still very fresh, doesn’t remind me of the frozen fish that some sushi restaurants serve up. I should’ve known the California rolls are deep fried as it states on the name… guess I was daydreaming when placing the order, anyway it was deep fried with mayo and teriyaki sauce drizzled on top. Surprisingly I enjoyed them although deep fried sushi is not usually my thing. The batter was light and the ingredients were held intact in the rolls: the usual stuff imitate crab meat, avacado and cucumber. They do have other special rolls on the menu and I heard many people ordered the crispy roll, maybe try that next time. Brown rice is also on the menu as it becomes quite popular nowadays, I’ll stick to my traditional white rice sushi for now. Overall, I really enjoy the pleasantness of the girls there, very attentive, the cleanliness of the place, and the refillable tea station!

I live close by, so I’ve ended up going here more often than I expected I would and you know what? I’m starting to grow attached to this little place. Those yam rolls are damn addictive! The girls who work in the front and so sweet! I always eat in because it’s such a warm, quiet, relaxed atmosphere, I could sip away my tea there for hours. The special rolls are awesome, I like the house roll myself. Even looking at it now, the prices aren’t too too bad. I’m becoming a regular.

I have eaten dinner here and I really liked it. The staff are really nice, and the sushi is good! I like the refill tea station and the place is always clean. I also had a party and bought a few of their catering platters, the sushi was fresh and everyone loved it! They also included loads of napkins wasabi, soy sauce and chopsticks(I have found surprising amounts of useful applications for chopsticks!) last time I bought platters from a place in oakridge, they totally stiffed me on the wasabi and chop sticks. I recommend coming here!
