Location/service This place is located right in the heart of…read moredowntown Markham, right across from the Canada Carousel. Really big sign that you can't miss. Parking is available right by the carousel or you can go underground by the condo complex. Interior is pretty standard. Nice to see that they have tables available for you to dine-in, but I see most are doing to-go, so nice convenience. Staff were friendly and nice to see they are following health and safety quite seriously when assembling the bowls. Food Their food had always been pretty staple, where you can either select a fixed menu setup or build your own poke with a choice of base/protein/toppings. I also like that they have an option to do salad or soba noodles besides rice as the base. I went for the Aloha Honey Ginger Salmon (crab meat slaw * pineapple * seaweed salad * masago) and Mauna Loa Spicy Shoyu Salmon (edamame * spicy cucumbers * spicy seaweed salad * masago) They've got daily specials too, so it's nice you don't have to break the bank. If you need a go-to spot for healthy, filling meals, this is the one!

Ingredients tasted fresh and i honestly enjoyed everything in the bowl and how all the flavours meshed together. It included most of my favourite ingredients for poke bowls! I didn't really like the spicy or pickled? cucumbers however. I'd much rather have it separate as i found it threw off the taste a bit. Still delicious! The portion i found was a bit small. But I'd totally come back!

This is supposed to be a large build your own bowl with 3 additional toppings, so roughly $22.50.The bowl isn't even 1/2 full. Tastes great but that's about it. I would've gone back in but I didn't notice until we had already left, also, I'm not about to give grief to the kid working there. We loved going here but definitely won't go back or recommend this place. Shrinkflation is wild.

The salmon was quite fresh and decent portion but nothing amazing. Brown rice was cooked well. The edamame beans, corn, seaweed salad and avocado were all great parts of the bowl. In particular the avocado seemed fresh. The minor downside was that they forgot some of the garnishes we asked - totally missing the nori and seasame seeds. Overall, 4/5 - might try again if there's a deal.

I met a friend who lives very close to this restaurant for lunch on a Thursday. I'd never been here…read morebefore and I love sushi places, so I was eager to try a new venue that offered not only sushi, but poke meals. As it turned out, I wasn't in the mood for poke, but I immediately appreciated the ambiance and decor of this very reasonably priced restaurant. They're in a plaza with plenty of parking, which I also appreciated. When we entered, it was quite empty and quiet, which I tend to prefer. I noticed a sign indicating that they no longer offer AYCE. This would have really bummed me out normally, but we were planning on a smaller, a la carte lunch that day anyway. It didn't take too long to be greeted, and we could have our pick of most of the tables. We sat by the booze display case, although we didn't partake on this particular occasion. We were given our menus, which included a dedicated lunch menu. Both of us opted for a 3 roll selection that comes with miso soup and salad for $16.98. There's a 2 roll version for $11.98 as well but I was going to devour the plate itself. I was so hungry. We ordered plain hot water as it was a pretty cold, snowy day. Our first waters came quickly, and the soups and salads as well. I swear every sushi place I've ever been to gets their soup and salad from the same, giant dispenser, meaning, they tasted exactly the same. Not a bad thing, just makes it an average experience. For my rolls, I chose a deep fried crab/cream cheese; a shrimp tempura; and a salmon/cream cheese. My friend chose deep fried butterfish; eel/avocado; and spicy salmon. They didn't take long to arrive, but after that, we weren't checked on whatsoever. I liked that the rice to filling ratio on all of the rolls was not too high. The freshness was also good. My main complaint would be that the oil flavour was a little too pronounced on the tempura and fried rolls. That didn't stop me from inhaling my plate, though, figuratively speaking only, thankfully. We sat for a long while enjoying our meal, and my friend wound up not finishing her meal. While we appreciated not being hovered on as an attempt to clear us out ASAP, my friend had emptied her cup of water early in the meal and was really wishing for more. She tried getting our server's attention for a good while before she succeeded. I could see they do a brisk takeout business and were taking calls, but we really were ignored after being served our food. I ended up approaching the desk for our bill while my friend used the facilities as we finished up. I was able to get a cardboard container for my friend to bring her remainders home. Btw the facilities are very roomy and were clean, if getting worn, so that was another plus overall. I might return, but I would find the lack of AYCE option a disincentive as I've grown accustomed to that means of having endless variety. I do find the value for price point quite good, even though the food was so average, so I wouldn't mind doing the same place visiting the same friend in the neighbourhood. I'd be more prepared to have to seek out service more aggressively, but at least they were always polite. Overall can recommend.
