I had a hankering for sushi on a recent Sunday and I happened to have a delivery coupon, so Sushi Ocean seemed like a good choice.
It didn't hurt that their 50 Piece Maki Platter ("California roll, sweet potato tempura avocado roll, avocado cucumber roll, salmon maki and avocado maki") was a mere $32, which I'll admit seemed rather suspicious.
Anyway, the platter was delivered in record time and it certainly looked quite impressive. And as far as taste goes, it definitely did not disappoint. I would classify this as perfectly middle-of-the-road sushi. (It's better than supermarket sushi but a far cry from the top-tier stuff that's out there.)
The only unfortunate note was the pickled ginger in the middle of the platter. It tasted quite rancid and wrong, somehow. We immediately chucked it. -

The sushi here just isn't great. Poorly constructed and not as tasty as some other spots. The sashimi was quite nice but cut in a really clunky manner.
There are certainly many superior AYCE places in Toronto. -

AYCE for $19. I guess that's a good deal in Toronto, right?
Wrong. This place is really crappy. Just your typical Chinese operated Japanese restaurant wanna-be. The food is really sub-par but edible. The rolls were not authentic at all and they add crunchy fried bread crumbs to all your rolls, hoping to fill you up fast. They cannot make simple rolls properly. I ordered a spider rolls and instead of soft shelled crab, they placed a piece of fried shrimp in the middle..um, no?
Besides the sushi rolls, there was not much to the menu. Most of the food was either, sushi rolls, sashimi (we'll talk about the later), or fried stuff from the kitchen. We ordered chicken wings and it was fried to the point where it was dried up and hard. We just sent it back.
When we arrived we were told to sit wherever we wanted. So we picked the seat closest to the entrance because my mom's nose was very sensitive to the greasy stench produced in this restaurant. They just tossed us the all you can eat ordering ticket and left us with a pen. We placed our order and it came out and we indulged. Half way into our meal, we realized we had no water, because the waiter never served it to us. Then when we never had our water refilled...
Sigh. The best part about this place is the sashimi selection they offered. You can have as many pieces as you'd like. Most place, at least where I'm from - NY, will never offer this on their menu. So props to these guys.
TLDR: This place serves cheap AYCE sushi. Come at your own discretion. -

Went here on a Tuesday night with my girlfriend. For the price of $23 i found the portions very small and they definitely cheeped out on the fish. Lots of rice and cucumber filler and little of what you actually want.
On top of the not so mediocre food the staff was also very unprofessional. As a few tables were eating the servers and cooks sit at the back tables on their phone. Good luck getting their attention. Overall for the price there are a million better restaurants not far away. -

You know what it was alright, I would of liked a little less rice then they gave. They would put so much rice expecting you to get full off that but it wasn't really a great thing because with the amount of rice i didn't eat I didn't order anymore (I guess they like that) but yeah cheap price but also they are cheap on the food. I would rather spend the extra 5$ to go somewhere nice. Also the water tasted pretty gross.
