Senbazuru Sushi Bar
Small little Japanese sushi bar tucked in the village gate plaza off Bayview Ave - amazingly fresh sushi/sashimi of good quality at an affordable price!! ($$).
Sashimi was served over ice keeping the sashimi at a goos temperature keeping it fresh and not leaving you feel like you had to wolf it down before it became room temperature. It was super fresh and pieces were a good thickness and slightly bigger than bite size. Loved the dish!
Beef roll with enoki mushrooms is one of my favorite dishes but without bias, it was a little heavy on the oil but still delicious. The meat was dripping in juice and had great flavor paired with my favorite enoki mushrooms.
Rainbow roll. Loved the combination of ingredients in the right amounts. If I had to comment on something, the roll was a little bigger than bite size so had to take two bites to eat it however, the roll kept together even after being bit into two halves which is good to note! The rice was also a good texture, soft and sticky, made just right. My favorite was the flavor of smoke salmon just bursting in flavor at every bite, they don't jip you on that part! 👌🏾
The Phoenix roll. Loved the variety of fish on this roll, it claims to have spicy mayo but for those who can't eat spicy (like me), it was not spicy at all! The roll was delicious and I'd order it again!
The tempura shrimp is good. Not as oily as some other Japanese restaurants, but nothing too epic to write home about. It was good.
The ramen is good, the best part of it was the pork belly and the egg. Even though the egg is not your traditional Japanese egg but they have their own style and it is just as delicious in their own recipe kind of way. The ramen itself was good but it could be a little bit more chewy and tender to make it even better. Overall this ramen is good, would order it again!
Overall, it's a cute little restaurant located in a plaza with plenty of parking. Perfect place for meet ups with friends, casual dates and small family dinners. Price is very affordable and it's a place I would go to when I feel like a quick Japanese meal in the area without killing the wallet but getting good quality. They also do take out with 10% off cash only and free deliver with orders over $30. Recommend! 👌🏾
