Very, very average tasting sushi… Not as pricy as other a la carte sushi restaurants, but not as good in terms of quality either. I guess you get what you pay for.

Great rolls, generous portions. Great value with the lunch time bento box. I love the special rolls. I could eat here every day. I took off a star because of service– the waitress in there is borderline rude, slow, doesn’t refill drinks, avoids eye contact.

Sushi quality is definitely not the best around, but at least the prices aren’t as steep as other places, so I guess you get what you pay for. Sashimi and sushi roll quality is on par with ones you get from all-you-can-eat restaurants… usually you would expect higher quality from an a-la-carte sushi restaurant.

I love this place, used to come here all the time when I was in school. They also have really nice booths my girlfriend and I used to love to sit in. The sushi is big and really tasty. They have a really good lunch menu, definitely recommend the chirashi don or the salmon lover.

Pretty average neighborhood sushi shop. I came here twice, both times ordering the bento set. I feel that they’re probably the most value for money items in the menu. The Nori bento I had came with 3 pcs of California rolls, japchae, 4 nigiris, teriyaki beef, miso soup, and salad. Their sushi rice is not very flavorful. They put relatively big chunks of avocado in the Cali which is an interesting choice. The good thing is the beef is cooked nicely, it’s tender and the teriyaki sauce is nice. My friend who had the tofu soup said it was pretty good. The place does have really nice décor and atmosphere. It’s an OK place if you need a quick dinner near home, but that’s about it. Wouldn’t come to this place to eat out unless I have to cause there are better options out there.

I came here twice, the first time I had the Japanese curry chicken which was unmemorable(and probably a bit small for the price). The second time I split a Hinata sushi/sashimi boat with a friend. The rolls were sizable and tasted good but was otherwise pretty standard spider roll. The sushi was of average thickness and the rice held together(mostly). The sashimi was good for the most part but the tuna sashimi was soggy. Service is good here if you come during a normal meal time. If you come near closing at 10pm(like we did) it’s hard to get their attention because all the staff sit together and eat dinner in the dining area(we just wanted the bill). They have lots of seats, but seem to prefer seating people in the more private booths. The booths aren’t actually as private as they appear because there are no walls between booths so sound travels freely out of the booth in all directions. 5197461566 is the wifi password.

When this place was Tomu sushi, it was much better. The owners are Korean so they have a few Korean items on the menu. I went in a few weeks ago and I wanted to get the Kimchi-jjigae(Kimchi soup) which used to be on their menu. However, when I asked the waitress where it was she said they dont make it anymore. The reason is because customers complained about the smell. I was pretty disappointed about this. But I guess we’re not living in Toronto and Waterloo, and despite the dominant Asian presence due to the students, it is not a multi-cultural city. I was disappointed that the restaurant would accommodate to such customers. I find it pretty outrageous that customers would go to a Japanese-Korean restaurant and then complain about the kimchi smell, which is a Korean staple. The quality of the food has gone down a bit since ownership has changed. There are better sushi/Japanese/Korean restaurants

This place used to be Tomu sushi. I believe it used to be known as a really good non-AYCE sushi place and also for the quality food. Now they got new management and everything changed. The decors are pretty good from before. All tables have their own walls for privacy. The prices went up and the sushi quality is less than it was before. We ordered a boat and some appetizers. They served us miso soup, salad and two side dishes. I thought the miso soup tasted funny, and I am sure the side dishes were not fresh from the looks of it. The main course was OK. I expected it to be worse from all the hearsay, but the raw fishes were fresh enough. It is more pricey especially from the menu on Tomu. Overall, comparing to the KW sushi restaurants, it isn’t that bad. We only came here because it was the only sushi restaurant that isn’t AYCE in miles.
