Great lunch sushi spot

by Long Thai

Decent lunch spot in the Greenspoint area - I stopped by here recentlly while in the area on business and I was pleasantly surprised. The service was very friendly and the food came out fresh and prompt. I had the sushi meal and it was definitely yummy and filling. Not the best sushi in town, but it does the job. If I'm ever back in the area on business, I wouldn't mind coming back for more.

OSHI, OSHI!!!

by oshioshi3

This is one of the best sushi places that I have tried so far. The sushi is fresh and the service has always been impeccable. My family and I eat here often and have never had a bad experience. My husband orders the grilled tuna salad which is very large and very tasty, my daughter orders the crab puffs with the tiger eye roll, and for me the the tiger eye roll with ponzu is a must -- every visit!! I like to try different rolls each visit (along with the tiger eye roll) and I have yet to try one that I didn't like. I highly recommend this sushi restaurant to anyone who is looking for great sushi at great prices!!!

  • Pros: Grilled Tuna Salad, Tiger Eye Roll, Shaggy Dog Roll, Spicy Ponzu
  • Cons: None yet!!!

Downhill or the other reviewers are employees/owners

by teekhe

I have stayed in the area over the past month and this is the only sushi restaurant. Unfortunately the staff shows very little understanding of what it means to run a sushi restaurant. At the sushi bar, the fish is exposed instead of being being behind closed refrigerators. It is not wrapped properly. The sushi chefs clean the floor area with mops and make sushi without washing their hands inbetween. Few wear plastic gloves. The fish is not as fresh as it could/should be. Go elsewhere.

To the owners of this place: Your staff is more concerned at 9 pm with cleaning up and making sushi for other staff members to take home than in serving customers. The hygiene level is unacceptably low.

  • Pros: Price
  • Cons: Cleanliness, service, location
