LF: Sushi in Brampton?

[yumyum824]

Are there any good sushi restaurants in Brampton? Looking to get some takeout tonight.

If not, I guess I'll just head over to Sora Sushi Bar (since I read some good postings about it).

I just moved here, so any recommendations would be appreciated!
Thanks a lot~~

Its worth the drive out of brampton

That's certainly true for now! I ended up going to Sora Sushi as nobody else posted any suggestions. In the near future, I'll try some other sushi places in Mississauga for variety. If I find any sushi restaurants in Brampton, I'll post my comments!

As for Sora Sushi Bar (just south of Square One)...
From my one takeout experience, I would say that it's worth returning to. I ordered the Rolls Lover ($15 + tax = $17.25), which had 30 pieces -- 6 salmon, 6 cucumber or avocado (your choice), 6 tuna, 12 california. It did not come with a salad or miso soup.

The fish was quite fresh, and the rolls didn't contain excessive amounts of rice. Always a good thing, right? However, the nori (seaweed) was somewhat soggy/chewy which detracted from the overall quality of the meal.

Well, at least it's enough for 3 meals (which works out to be only $5.75 each)! All in all, a good choice if you have cravings for cheap and decent sushi.

I used to work very close to there and went to Sora Sushi several times (because of its convenient location)...but I would say Sushi Tei at Burnhamthorpe & Creditview is significantly better.

There is a pretty decent suhi place at Hurontario/Bovaird SW Corner in the plaza with Rona

Sushi is Brampton is pretty hard to come by. The place at the southwest corner of Hurontario and Bovaird is called Toshi and is not bad.

There is a relatively new place on the east side of Kennedy just north of Steeles called Tokyo Yaki. It's set back from the road behind another block of buildings and can be hard to see. I've been there twice, and it was decent, but I think they're struggling. They added an AYCE menu to try and drum up some business, but last time I was there (three days ago) there was a handprinted sign in the window saying they were having trouble with their gas and were temporarily closed. Probably the death knell. There used to be an awesome restaurant in there called Formosa, but it's long gone. Everything else that goes in there just seems to die a slow death, probably because it's such a crappy location, practically invisible from the road.

Fifteen minutes up the road in Georgetown is a small place called Yo-Yo's - on the right hand side of the road just as you are coming into town from the south. It's quite good, but can be quite busy. Better to go on an off night or make reservations. Otherwise be prepared for a long wait.

That's it for sushi in the immediate Brampton area. Lots of good Vietnamese places, though. A couple of good Italians, a Middle Eastern place and a new shawarma joint on the horizon. An excess of East Indian places of varying quality as well.

Next nearest sushi that I recall is Prince Sushi on Hwy 10 in Mississauga in the AMC theatre complex, and Masume (which is quite good) on the west side of Dixie, just above Eglington in an undistinguished-looking industrial strip mall. There is a new place in Bolton, but it's basically mall-grade.

Here is a place at HWY # 10 and Courtney Park Drive ( In the AMC Theatre Complex ) called PRINCE SUSHI. This place has FANTASTIC sushi, sashimi, etc. at reasonable prices. Technically, this is not in Brampton, but no more than 5 minutes from the border.

Sushi Village. I've been twice. The first time it was a new place and not yet AYCE and I didn't enjoy it at all. Second time it was AYCE and things had improved considerably, but it was a bit pricey.

There are a couple more places just down the road. Koganei on the south side of Hwy. 7 beside Bikini Village (BONUS: take your gf for lunch and then go shopping) and Ginza on the east side of Weston Rd., north of Hwy. 7 in the Longo's plaza. Both are decent, but neither is AYCE.

The Taste of Japan (?) on the south side of Hwy.7 just east on Pine Valley (where the Taco Bell is) is to be avoided for factory-grade food. Feh.

Went by Tokyo Yaki again yesterday and it's still closed with their gas problem sign posted in the window. It's probably history.

Sushi Tei has gone down significantly in terms of service and portion size. Before they moved to their current location they were located a bit further inwards of the plaza. Miga which has opened up on Dundas is an absolutely divine place. Large portions, fresh fish and fair prices. Also it's a Korean restaurant as well and is definately worth the visit. I believe the other major intersection is Erin Mills Pkwy.

I've been to alot of AYCE sushi places in GTA & I concur that VIP Sushi (Yonge south of 407 in Thornhill) is worth the drive.
