Newfound Sushi — Restaurant in Corner Brook

Our waiter was phenomenal! He was so passionate, warm, knowledgeable, and attentive! The view was exquisite as well! I loved watching the billowing clouds phantom up over the rolling hills bursting with fall leaves. All cozily wrapped around the calm bay. Even better was the food! Foodies rejoice! Nothing you can order here would be a bad choice!

We had the locally harvested hedgehog karage mushrooms (lightly breaded/fried) which was WOW - delicious! How unique and special! I've never had hedgehog mushrooms, let alone locally-harvested ones! They were umami, meaty, crispy, and perfectly seasoned!

My partner enjoyed the jellyfish 'seaweed' salad. I found it to be too chewey/tough, but then again, I'm not a huge fan of seaweed salad in the first place.

My favorite was the chutoro, from the freshly caught bluefin tuna (the day prior). Talk about melt-in-your-mouth buttery! Absolute bliss! It came with a generous dollop of real wasabi, which is hard to come by, far more delicate and floral than the imitation. As someone who typically despises the imitation wasabi, I was surprisingly pleased with the real deal. Even if I did have to tread suspiciously at first 😉

My partner's favorite was the spicy scallop roll. Thinly sliced, tender, crispy tempura on top, creamy spicy mayo and a sweetness to it.

My second favorite was the coast roll with salmon and smoked arctic char. The artic char was overpowering, yet delicious. In the future, I would use it a bit more sparingly. It was rich with generous servings of both tender fish and...

Usually my favorite spot in CB, but just tried to go there for lunch today and had a very unpleasant experience and had to walk out without ordering. First, we walked in to the main floor dining room, we were asked if we were dining in or taking out and informed diners were helped upstairs. After we found the upstairs completely packed except for few seats at the bar, we decided to take out and went back downstairs... To which we were told to go back upstairs to place the order because there were no servers downstairs. Back upstairs. There were two servers attempting to manage the packed bar and we had little attention actually focused on us. When we told them we wanted to place a takeout order, we were told that they would have to 'check with the chef if they do takeout' and both scrambled to call downstairs even after we said the chef had sent us up. No one ever gave us a menu to look at. Then when one server gave us enough of her attention to punch in an order, we told her we didn't even have a menu to which she said they didn't have takeout menu and didn't offer a regular menu nor explained what we could take out. Frustrated with the lack of service, we left without ordering. This is extremely disappointing since I am rarely in cornerbrook and even more rarely am able to convince my husband to go for sushi. Then when I did get to go, no one wanted to help us. :( they used to offer prepared takeout for lunches,not sure why...

Usually have a good experience but the last visit left a sour taste in our mouths. Wanted to bring my fiancé for a nice meal before I left the province so we decided to drive out to Corner Brook. We usually sit upstairs but was guided downstairs, the waitress that showed us our seat didn’t seem motivated to work. No greeting, menus, or drink orders. She was talking to someone else and handed us the menu while talking to them and continued to finish before coming over. Specials were told to us after we ordered. We ordered an appetizer, two rolls and one for takeout. The appetizer arrived quickly and we were waiting on the rolls. While waiting, the waitress kept looking at us and smiling awkwardly without coming to us. After an hour wait, I asked to see why we did not get our order yet. She went to the kitchen and came back after 5 minutes saying that it would be another 30-45 minute wait. I asked her why the long wait and she mentioned the upstairs guests have to be served first before we are. My fiancé and I decided to leave. About a two hour wait for two rolls is ridiculous and the interaction with the waitress that day makes us not want to go back. We would rather make the drive out to St. John’s and get...
