We came pretty late, but it was still quite busy. The atmosphere was really laid back and some of the servers were pretty hot to be honest. Of course, we got stuck with the male server who I think was French Canadian. He was nice but I don't think understanding English was his strong suit. We ordered four dishes to split among us, and we actually ordered some pasta dish instead of the soba noodles, but we decided not to bother getting it corrected because it took a LONG time for our food to come out.
Service was mediocre but it wasn't that big a deal since we just came to hang out and talk. If you have a lot of time to spend in the restaurant, it's actually pretty nice because you aren't being constantly heckled by the servers.
Food itself was pretty awesome, I'm not a vegetarian but I loved the curry and the antijitos were amazing - we wanted to get another plate but didn't have another hour to spare.
- Order: Antijitos, "Spicy Green Thai Curry", soba noodles, fruit salad
- Was quite surprised when the pizza came out - it...

Was quite surprised when the pizza came out - it didn't look appetizing. Luckily, it tasted much better than it looked. It was actually a really good meal as far as taste goes. The unfortunate thing was the portion size - I was expecting a miniature pizza and I got only a (fairly large) slice. I was definitely still hungry after I was done..
Service wasn't amazing either - our food took a long time to come out and I think some people in our party got a different soup from what they ordered. They also charge mandatory gratuities which kind of pisses me off.
Overall, pretty average... I probably wouldn't come back, except maybe to see the live jazz which obviously wasn't playing for lunch for us.
- Order: "Pizza of the Day" with Caesar salad
- We went here for a friend's birthday. It's all...

We went here for a friend's birthday. It's all you can eat, and we ordered a LOT of sushi. The waitresses even started bringing food to our table that was meant for other people because they assumed it was for us - they were perfectly nice about it though.
Despite our large orders, we finished everything... a good thing since they charge you for what you don't eat. The California rolls in particular were really good, although overall I think I prefer Ye's in Waterloo. It's pretty expensive, but worth it if you're hungry. And they even give you a fork if the waitresses deem you too white to properly use chopsticks (one person in our party definitely fell into this category).
- Order: Shrimp tempura, spider rolls, Guelph rolls, teriyaki beef shish kabobs, California rolls, fried rice, green tea ice cream
- When we arrived, no one was there to seat us so...

When we arrived, no one was there to seat us so we seated ourselves (we did come pretty late, but still kind of annoying). One of my friends asked for a virgin strawberry daquiri and the waitress asked if she wanted it with alcohol. I'm not going to name names, but this waitress was pretty ditzy. The food was meh, it wasn't bad but wasn't particularly delicious either. I would probably come back at a busier time and see if the service was any better.
- Order: Calamari, "The Hamburger"
