Sushi Ya — Restaurant in Ontario

The restaurant hop in the pursuit of decent sushi took my friend and I to Sushi Ya. Every time I've walked down Clarence, I've wanted to eat here, so the opportunity arose after starting the evening with bad sushi elsewhere. What a charming place. Its cozy and lined with a mirror wall to make it brighter inside. After checking the menu, our server started with a plate of edaname, followed by a not too salty miso soup that contained small cubes of tofu and finely sliced green onions. These dishes by the way weren't something we had ordered, they were included as part of the meal! Our medium sushi/sashimi pate followed after not too long of a wait. A rose was added to the plate in a nest of radish and carrot...beautiful presentation! The cuts of fish were fresh and of a decent sized portion and all the sushi was beautifully uniform. Wasabi was paired with a sweet rather than salty soy sauce which was a delightful and unexpected taste surprise which I loved. My friend had a hot pot of tea and I had a glass of water which was refilled when needed...our server was attentive, yet unobtrusive. Another family came in and sat behind us. They ordered different types of Bento boxes, so the next time we go, I'm going to give that a try. The chef and the server are a couple, so this is a family-owned and operated business. If you are seeking fresh, well-prepared Japanese food in a clean and quiet atmosphere, Sushi Ya won't disappoint! Sushi Yeah! and Sushi Yaaayyy! 😋❤🍣 I WILL be back many times and make sure to sample their very extensive menu. Thank-you for making my friend's last good meal in London (he's moving) enjoyable...

I've always wanted to try Sushi Ya, since I've started walking to work over a year ago, and walk by this place almost everyday, and tonight was my chance! From the outside, it looks like very small from the glimpse I get walking past it, and that's very true from the inside as well, as I discovered tonight, it was definitely an intimate setting, and not very busy on a Saturday night when I walked in around 6:15pm after work.

There were only two people working, the chef and the waitress. She was on top of everything, I was seated the moment I walked in and handed a menu and a photo album of their specials, and combo's. I had ordered Combo 131, which included a salmon maki roll, Philadelphia roll, and a spicy tuna roll, which came with miso soup, and I had also ordered a seaweed salad, and green tea. The prices are not AYCE sushi, it's A La Carte style. So my order came to around $24 and some change after all was said and done, and although it doesn't seem like a lot of food, it was, I was very full afterwards.

The service was quick, when I came in she handed me a complimentary small plate of edamame, which was cold, but it was still good, and took my order and promptly brought out my green tea and water. I was by myself tonight, so it was nice just to take in everything. The entire place is small and there was a couple other groups there as I enjoyed my meal. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would love to come back and try the...

TLDR: Give this a shot, I guarantee you won't regret it.

I remember trying out this place when I first came to London about a couple years ago and thought, "Huh, this is pretty decent." Several years past and I decided to give it another go, and all I can say, this is a MUST for any sushi lovers.

Tired of the soy sauce tasting the same? Want to have a different atmosphere and feel like you can relax? This is definitely the place.

The service is excellent and would even warn you about how some size portions are much larger than people can anticipate. Which I appreciate.

The sushi tastes excellent, and unlike all you can eat buffet, the quality is much better and with fair prices.

This is one of the few times where I will rare a place a 5/5. This is a must go to. And although I am sad that I won't be able to go to this place after a hardest day work, I now have a good reason to visit the...
