    Awesome Food

    Okay.....I really hope the owner notices this because I had to sign up to this site to put in my two cents. I left the restaurant and said to myself "the food was great.....why are they not busy on a Friday night". The answer my friend was blowing in the wind. POOR SIGNAGE. You sign is your biggest detriment. I only knew about your restaurant because I live in Thunder Bay and love Sushi. When u stand on Red River Road at night when it is dark (especially) you would never, never, see the restuarant. You need a BLINGY, in your face "flashing" sign. You might think it is cheesy but you will get noticed. Honestly, your sign is really not noticeable. Another thing....our waitress was really really nice and once she got to know us, our service was fast. Two problems.......not quick enough taking drink orders after we arrived.....i had to ask and the restaurant was practically empty. Second thing....i asked for our candle to be lit. If you are the waitress and reading this, I can't emphasis enough that your were super nice and very interested in how to get more customers......you just have to put yourself in the shoes of the customer and ask "how can i make this night really special for them". Start with super quick service and light the candle. Great decorating but candles create intimacy and warmth. Again, the food was very delicious and fresh and the portions were generous, especially the vegetable seafood tempura appetizer. Best of Luck and please get a flashier sign so people know you exist.

    Mean Male Waiter

    The hostess was snippy because I refused to sit by the kitchen door. The atmosphere/decor is nice, but I had to leave my coat on because it was freezing in there. The funkily dressed waiter was incredibly rude, inexplicably condescending, and hilariously snobbish [all things considered]. Given that the restaurant was near empty, his impatience was unwarranted as was his repeated snapping at my daughter. We had to ask for the miso soup which is supposed to come with the rolls, but it didn't arrive until after the meal. I attempted recently to place a take out order as I felt it would be much easier than having to deal with the horrid service, but I couldn't get through on their telephone line. It was busy for 45 minutes, so I gave up. Overall: good food, horrendous service destroys the appetite.

    Great sushi... but

    Thunder bay is slowly developing non traditional local resteraunts, there are currently three shushi resteraunts and this is one produces my favorite rolls. There is one girl serving there and I enjoy her very much, very personable, qucik and profesional. There is however a guy there who consistently dissapoints, slow, a little spaced out and almost always dress in what would better be suited to a bar, I never want to see a few inchest of butt crack when I eat and certainly not from some skinny dude in tight low rise jeans. In a resteraunt where you sit on the floor and have a guy constantly bending and squating beside you this is even more of a problem. I've made complaints about this and ohter people I know have also but nothign seems ot change. I'd have given a negative service review is possible and based solely on this one guy but everyone else including the owner ahve been great, chatting with me and firendly while very professional.

    Greatest Restaurant Ever!!!

    The Sushi Bowl has the best sushi I Have ever had, never found a better sushi yet. And i have been to many shushi places in Toronto and big cities in Europe. Say what you will of the service the food is excellent!!! Wasabi is no comparison, Sushi bowl is the best. I do agree the servers there may seem snobbish or asocial, but who cares I come to the sushi bowl to eat great sushi not socialize. If I had to endure people being rude to me and i had to eat in a BFI to get this sushi i would do it. Atmosphere and service are over rated... food counts!!!

    NEVER go here!!

    HORRIBLE. Never go to this restaurant. The food is below average at best. The rolls are HUGE you can't even fit it in your mouth. They are made VERY badly as they're constantly falling apart. You can't even pick up the thing without it falling all over the table. The real bad part was the service. Literally, it was the worst service ever. We walked in and immediately it was a bad sign: the waiter didn't even notice us til I blatantly stood in his way. He didn't even bring any customers to their table; he just left the menus on the table and ran. He was also eating a RING POP while serving people food. The tables were left covered in past customers dishes. The waiter was eating ring pops instead of cleaning up the dirty tables. My waiter didn't bother to check up on us to ask about our food, and we didn't get any refills on our drinks, which was only water. Horrible, horrible, horrible. Terrible service and bad food.
