Ariake Sushi  

Categories: Sushi Bars, Japanese

1 star rating
 8/14/2009  
This place has really gone downhill.  During the last two visits (in a span of maybe two months), this place has been horrible.  I have come during peek lunch time (around 12:30 to 1pm) and 99% of the boats floating have nothing on them!  Come on!  You might as well rip out the sushi bar and put in tables if you're not going to put sushi on the boats during peek lunch hour!  

**If you want to eat sushi don't come here.**

On top of that the speed of hot meals is glacially slow.  My wife ordered fried tofu and it took them almost 20 minutes to get it out to us.  The restaurant was not even that busy.

We both ordered Cokes.  They were fountain drinks, not canned.  When I finished mine, I asked for a refill.  The waiter told me that I'd have to pay for the refill.  I know economic times are hard, but if you're going to charge for refills, then give me a canned drink.  Fountain drinks are cheap.

Sitting at the sushi bar, I kept getting the smell of not-so-fresh fish that really killed my appetite.

I will not be coming here for a sushi fix anymore.  Their service is bad, their food is mediocre, their sushi is horrible, and their food takes too long to get to the table.  Avoid!

What can I say?  This is KFC.  The service here is very good and that's why I keep coming back to this location.  The service at the Blossom Hill location is not as great.  This location is clean, but the seating area is a bit small.  Ordering while the place is busy is a bit of a pain because there's not much of an area to order and wait either.

This place has some good food, especially considering that it is a fast food place.  The prices are a bit high, but worth it as the Korean food served here is authentic and very tasty.  I had the spicy pork over rice and that was an excellent meal.  My wife had the dukboogi and vegitable kimbap.  Those were also very, very tasty.  I particularly liked the kimbap as it tasted like nothing I've had before.  Also cool is the free barley tea.

OEC Sushi  

Category: Japanese

1 star rating
 10/25/2008   First to Review
The sushi at this place was horrible.  The sushi tasted fishy and good sushi should *never* taste fishy.  The hamachi not only tasted fishy, it was also sour.  The maguro tasty fishy and had a stringy, chewy texture to it.  

You cannot order sushi ala carte either.  The "bundles" seem like a deal, but really, with this grade of fish that they are using, it is too expensive.

Avoid this place at all cost if you are looking for sushi.  Terrible, just terrible.

Kinder Cuts

Good service, good haircuts, and the cars are an excellent idea for keeping my son distracted.  The only drawbacks are the price, which is a bit high, and the store being closed on Sundays.  Otherwise, recommended for any parent who wants to get their child a haircut.

World Gourmet Buffet

2 star rating

The food here is so-so.  The problem is that the food seems to have been sitting around for too long.  There was chicken that was dry and chewy.  The sui mai was like chewing on rubber.  The Mongolian grill cooked up some tasteless stuff.  The sushi bar was a joke.  The price was not too bad, and I am glad that this place hasn't gone too far downhill like other Chinese buffets.  But, there are definitely better places if you are willing to pay a little bit more.

I am not sure what the hype is about The Cheesecake Factory.  The food is OK, the portions are way too large, the service is also OK.  This location is decent sized.   There are definitely better places to eat, say the Buca di Beppo a short walk down the mall.

This place is all average except for the prices.  The prices are quite high for the average bakery food that is sold.  Also, the coffee was subpar.

Fast and tasty Chinese food!  Yum!  The owners are also very friendly.  When we want some Chinese in our neighbourhood, this is where we head.  You can't go wrong.

Rick was great.  He was upfront about all charges and costs.  There was nothing hidden when he came out to do the install.  The equipment works well and the install was quick.
