I ordered party tray A. With uber pick up it was 74.46. Portion is good for 3 people and it was tasty. The sushi rice is a bit blend but it was still delicious.

Came here to take advantage of their 50% off special and for the free gift! It was such a good deal! The place was quite hectic and busy as expected and we had to wait 2 hours to pick up our food. However, the food was really good and fresh. My favourite was the Salmon Lover set because of the thick cut salmon sashimi. The R Ninki and Happy Family rolls were also delicious. A lot of people were upset because the grand opening was so busy, but I could tell that the servers were trying their best. I think they are still offering 30% off. I would come back again for their sushi and sashimi.

The sushi was absolutely delicious, with the salmon being the true highlight. The salmon was incredibly fresh, buttery, and full of flavor. The sushi pizza was amazing crispy and topped generously. The sashimi was great quality. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. While it’s on the higher price point, the quality, freshness, and presentation make it worth it.

I ordered through UberEats for Christmas dinner and was thoroughly impressed. This party platter includes rolls like spicy crab, spicy salmon, and aburi rolls. I also got free salmon sashimi and karaage. The karaage was lacking a bit—I felt like it could have better flavour but it was a great portion for the price. The sushi itself was amazing! I definitely recommend. Everyone asked where I got it from so please check this place out! Great value and portions and beautiful presentation as seen in the photo.

I’ve ordered from R Sushi multiple times, and it never disappoints. The sushi is always incredibly fresh, high-quality, and perfectly crafted. The fish is melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the rice is just the right texture. I highly recommend trying the torched sushi I love the Aburi, the smokiness adds an amazing depth of flavour. Whether you’re craving classic nigiri or more creative rolls, everything is consistently excellent. R Sushi is a must-order for any sushi lover! 10/10 highly recommend

First time ordering from here. Fish was thin but fresh. Quite sloppy on the rolls. Things fell out once the rolls were picked up. Lots of flavour. Their eel fried rice is really good! Not oily at all.

The quality of sushi was really good. Probably near the top in the area. However we were promised the tray would be ready by 8:30 pm and when I got there, they told me it would be another 10 minutes and I waited a little over 15 minutes. I'm fine with whatever time you give me but I'm not a fan of being told one time and then told to wait when I arrive at the agreed time. I believe they are still a very new sushi restaurant and I'm sure there are issues they need to work through. I'll still be a return customer as their sushi quality was very good!
