  This is my go-to takeout sushi joint in Pickering because it is tasty, cheap, and it never disappoints. The miso soup is really good, addictive teriyaki chicken and rice, and a nice selection of tempura for a great price. I prefer this as a takeout place as it is large inside but a bit dated on the decor so not really a date night choice for me. Unfortunately, there is no delivery option. It is located in the Metro plaza with lots of parking.

  Tiny sushi joint well worth the price! I came here starving at lunch time and opted for their AYCE (only $13pp). While the lunch selection is much smaller than their dinner option, we opted for this as you can get much more than a bento box's worth of food for an even cheaper price. Talk abut a deal!! However, we noticed the majority of their customers ordered takeaway rather than dining in with us for this amazing deal.
  
  HIGHLIGHTS: You'll definitely get a bang for your buck with the miso soup. Even though we ordered this item through the ayce menu, I found the portion was HUGE (came in an extra large bowl, about the size of two regular soups) and was not overly salty. I also quite enjoyed the california and rainbow rolls - these rolls came with huge pieces of avocado in them which is quite rare for must ayce places. The raw fish was quite fresh as well.
  
  Minus two stars because service was a bit slow (our tea was only refilled once at the end of our meal) and food quality wasn't the best albeit decent (deep fried items like tempura were wayyy too greasy).
  
  Overall, I'd definitely come here for takeaway if I'm craving sushi as these prices and quality are a lot better than the grocery store sushi next door, although I likely won't be coming back to dine in.

  My cousin told me about this place so I figured I'd check it out for dinner. First impressions: this place looks family owned and operated. There were no specific signs saying that, just a feeling. There were lots of neighbourhood kids coming and going while I was there, ordering mostly takeout.
  
  They have a fairly big all-you-can-eat sushi menu, lunch specials, dinner specials, bento boxes, and more. Lots of choices! I chose a dinner bento box with teriyaki chicken and beef. It included miso soup, rice, salad, two spring rolls, salmon sashimi, and California rolls, a great value for only $14.
  
  These portions were large, larger than most Japanese restaurants I've been to. Everything tasted good. The meats were nicely seasoned and cooked. The California rolls, while not the prettiest, were larger than average and made with fresh ingredients. The sashima was also fresh
  
  With good service, good food, and cheap prices, it's easy to see why I saw so many kids coming in.
  
  There was one blemish on my visit. They started mopping the dining room floor while several diners were still there. They put out the appropriate warning signs but the smell of the chemicals was a bit strong. Bad timing. It was a turnoff.
  
  Come for good tasting cheap food and good service and you won't be disappointed.

  When I proposed this spot as a lunch date to my friends, I described it as "suspiciously cheap." Contrary to my fears, this turned out to be a solid option for AYCE sushi in the east end. I especially loved the tempura and the fried scallops, as well as their giant bowls of miso soup. The lunch menu (for the low low price of $13) doesn't offer sashimi, but there are a good variety of rolls and other offerings. You even get your first pop free!
  
  This is far from peak quality sushi, but you get more than you pay for, which at most other places would likely just be food poisoning -- and in this case, the value far exceeds the price. The service is good too. The place itself is clean but no-frills; it filled up fast though, for a late Saturday lunch. They also offer lunch specials at crazy prices. I guess this is what Pickering is like???

  You know what? I come here FAR TOO OFTEN for this not be on my 5-star list. The service is always fantastic and the food is always fresh and prepared nicely. I love this place. 41 check-ins to date and I still had them sitting at a 3-star? Shame on me!
