This place is now called Gokusen, so older reviews don't apply. It's simple, no frills, in terms of decor but clean and comfortable. I've tried every sushi place in Ottawa in the last 10 years and this restaurant was a real surprise! Sashimi pieces were thick and fresh, rolls perfectly executed, fresh and generous. Nice presentation too. Torched sushi was nice. Great value for the sushi sashimi combo at 49.95. Feeds two adults. See picture.
Ginza is now "Gokusen", and to anyone else looking for good sushi... this is the place in Ottawa. The older gentleman working here works absolute magic, and was so welcoming.Every Maki roll I had was amazing; even the soy sauce was excellent and in a cool little reused sake bottle. The Miso that was served with our meal was literally the best I've ever had in my life. 200/10 for that Miso alone. They even had a little bit of imported real wasabi paste that changed my life.In summary: the best sushi experience I've ever had. I can't recommend this restaurant enough!!
Food was soso.. Ramen soup was cold.I was surprised when I saw a girl was sleeping face down at the counter seat. She slept whole my stay in this restaurant.
Very small shop with amazing ambience. I love how they had J-Pop music on the background, specially AKLO's Lost in Paradise just when the Ramen got served. Definitely my go to Ramen shop everytime I'd go to Ottawa. Arigato ghozaimasu....
I ordered from skip the dishes. Honestly so good. Best sushi I've had in a while.
went here to order 1 portion of grilled pork vermicelli. but it must be said that the quality is not commensurate with the price, the meat is dry, tasteless, the vermicelli is very dry, feel its crispness. The dipping sauce is very bland. But i heard my boyfriend said ramen here very good, so i'll come next time for that soup, and i get them 3 starts and wait after !
Extremely fresh and delicious sushi. Pictured is the Kiss roll. The service is fantastic.
If you came here for noodles, I highly suggest to go somewhere. I had miso ramen, noddles was too soft, even found dumplings inside, beside that the pork belly was over burnt, you can see the black singe on top.We ordered octopus leg as appetizer, it’s too dry hard to chew.In word, if come here for ramen then it’s not worth it
Sashimi was nice, very fresh and well cut for the most part. The tuna was chewy though and not that great. The excellent mackerel made up for it. Would have given this place 4 stars, but there was a hair in the food which was definitely not mine and I lost my appetite 3/4 way through. I know things like that happen on occasion, but it’s still gross and should have been noticed as it was between 2 pieces of white fish.
The Thai Ramen was uber bland. The spicy salmon roll lacked spice. Staff was friendly but man it was like supermarket sushi just okay.
