Entire Family of 5 got food poisoning eating AYCE Lunch on April 7th 2019. Only person who didn't get food poisoning was the person who had no Rolls/Makis/Sushis that used raw Fish.

Eat here so you can have a toilet after party.

Food was pretty salty, however the salmon sashimi was very fresh.

A 10% service fee is automatically included so just keep that in mind before you tip again. Service wasn't bad but I wouldn't say it's great either. Was pretty expensive for dinner, $33 for a weeknight dinner. Lastly the menu wasn't the best, aren't a lot of pictures and the sushi rolls dont provide a description of what's inside.

Went here last week on Friday. We ordered at 8PM and only got 5 plates of food by 10. So take it as you will.

Edit: Since the owners seem to be throwing out random accusations, no we weren t the ones thrown out. We were the ones that were given the 10% discount and paid by the plate, still totalling out to around 100 dollars.

The food is very good. Arrives to your table very fast during a moderately busy time. The prices are expensive but no more so than any other all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant. Overall you will not be disappointed.

We came to this restaurant for a meeting. we heard about this place from many people. Well, it was very nice. The staff were extremely nice and we felt excellent. The meal was delicious. We enjoyed every moment and we will visit this place again. Warmly recommended.

Made us wait 45 minutes and we had reservations. Then they didn't even bring all the things we ordered and rushed us out because there lunch buffet was over. If they had of sat us down even remotely close to when we arrived then maybe we would have left at a decent time. Terrible experience and I would never recommend this place even to my worst enemy!

Food is alright but the staff need some work. It takes forever to get your food and sometimes you have to order it like 4 time. Even then they will mess it up. One time they even ran out of rice after my first round!!! Not good. How do u run out of rice????

Have been coming here over the years, basically since 2007, the owner was changed in 2010 and things have been going going down from there. Food is substandard in taste for example, if you order anything fried such as tempura, it will come in small quantity of meat, huge breading and expect you to dip them all in the tasteless sauce. Freshness is standard level unlike some other all you can eat places. My buddies and I are going for the old time's sake.

Horrible service... Completely ignore you if you're not Asian. Messed up my order and on top, our server had a sour face the entire time as though she was doing us a favour by serving us... Food was ok... but, not coming back, specially when there are tons of other sushi spots in the area!

The food was very good as it was hot, fresh and tasty. Customer service was quick and quite friendly. Needless to say we were impressed with the taste profile. The ginger milk was awesome!! It was a great visit so we will definitely be back.

A very decent selection of food, limited servers. Ordering were done with serves which were very busy. Lots of space between tables. The sashimi wasn't as fresh as hoped. The cooked food was a little shriveled. Their best dish would be the Creme Brulee.

The price is the average daily meal, but the price is very low!
First of all, one crab leg per person, three sweet shrimps per person, it is really shabby. If you need to control the cost by this way, don t do it all you can eat.
Then I don't know if the sushi master's knife is not working or the quality of the raw fish used is not good. It takes a long time to remove the bad corners. In short, the cut sashimi piece is irregular (not to mention that it is rectangular, but the cut is really seven twists and turns, the thickness is not the same)
Then the raw beef sashimi came up very surprised, I have never seen such a presentation... the taste can be imagined... not delicious
Then I said that one end of the "Hokkaido belt" is limited to one end. It is found that this is not a real belt at all. Instead, the belt shell is repeatedly recycled, and then the bulk frozen belt is repeatedly loaded. It does not have anything to do with Hokkaido. I feel a bit disgusting... I have to pay to go and leave.
Pay the bill, send it alone, force a 10% tip, and the service attitude is very bad. Just ask a few more questions to give you a look. I don't know why I want to force a 10% tip. The card is to enter the amount after the tip and then give it to you. I won t visit again next time.

Love this place. Tons of whatever seafood, tenderloin steak, teriyaki chickens skewers, plus a hundred other choices. One of my favourite places for a treat with friends. Would have got 5 stars, but the washroom needs to be cleaner.

If I could rate this restaurant a zero, I would. The waitstaff and manager are rude and have no regard for their customers. I went with a group for a work lunch and we had to keep reminding them that our orders haven't come out. We tried to get their attention for the last half an hour of us sitting there to remind them that they forgot the last part of our order to be greeted with complete disregard and ignorance. There was a point where three or four of us were trying to get their attention and they looked but ignored us completely. When it came time to pay, they promptly brought us our bill and tried to overcharge those of us paying with cash. The food here is decent but with the sushi selection we have in the area, I would never return to this establishment nor recommend it to anyone. This place is also overpriced so save your money and go get your sushi fix elsewhere. I recommend Markham Sushi or Gal's if you're ok with not doing AYCE. You get the best quality sushi for a great price at both establishments.

Been here over 3 dozen times in the last 10 years. Today was a total disaster. Went with 4 adults, 6yr, 4yr and 1yr old. At 630pm restaurant was 70% empty, waited 20 mins for 1st plate of sashimi, then had to wait another hr for 2nd plate, spoke with waitress multiple times. Ordered 15 pieces of everything got 15 pieces total. Quality of food was bad, tempura was soggy, hand rolls had too much rice. Miso soup was like water. Fried wings were burnt. The bill had mandatory 10% service charge and a $6 "open food". They said they charge per head now so the 1yr old who didn't eat was charged. No point in arguing. They were upset we kept asking about the sashimi. Chinese restaurants have been going down hill due to inflation.

All you can eat with 1.5 hour limit which is reasonable. The cooked food comes quickly, sushi order takes up a longer time. The indoor dining has a 50 people capacity. Very spacious. Lots of selection on the menu and the price is very reasonable during the week (Monday to Thursday). The bill already includes 10% service charge (tips).

Service was fast. Portion sizes are adequate. It's all you can eat, so you can keep adding.the California rolls were just okay, but the black and green dragon rolls were very good. The tempora was fresh, and the soup okay. The staff was friendly, and explained the dishes when asked.

Sushi | LLBO | AYCE | Dine In During COVID-19 | Cash/ Card

I used to come here a lot at least once a month if not more for their all you can eat menu. Their cooked food was always pretty good.
Since COVID-19 I haven't been back, now that the city is opened I also feel a bit safe so I decided to try them out again.

They renovated their interior, clean and spaced out seating. They respect social distancing. They also changed their dishware to a new set.

There are still the previous servers and same owner but I do see new staff as well.

Service is good. Their menu changed a bit but the AYCE quality is still there. The prices has also gone up a little bit but due to pandemic I would be quite understanding.

Due to COVID-19 there aren't a lot of AYCE sushi restaurants options around the area so Yang's being opened and still keeping their standards is quite good.

Poor quality food. Half of the food was too hard to even chew. That's fine coming from a Japanese restaurant named with a mainland Chinese name.

Service is unique, let's just say. We sat down at 1:30 and got repeatedly reminded closing time is 3 and last call is 2:30. At 2:10pm we got asked 2 times for our last order "because we are very busy", whereas seats are at least half empty.

At 2:30pm we got asked again what ice cream will it be. When we asked for 5 min, that's exactly we got before getting asked again.

Guess the staff are all under-paid and over-worked? Not a smile any corner of this place.

Ever been to a Chinese restaurant that is the only one in a remote state? That's the kind of place this is.

Went there on Mother's Day, last service. Terrible service, staff kept 'forgetting' items on the order. We asked for water and it never came. They weren't even that busy for the poor service. At last call we ordered the beef steak which my husband really wanted - again it was 'forgotten' and the kitchen was closed. They were in a huge rush to get us out of there and it was still 30 mins to closing. Will never return.

First time eating here and was pleasantly surprised. We were seated in our own section, all employees were maks. We were given a plastic menu (I assume for easy cleaning) and the waitress inputted our selections in the the IPad for us. The food took a while to arrive at first, however it did not disappoint when it arrived. They only down fall was no cheese wontons, crab tempura or wonton soup. But I would go again!

Been going here at least once or twice a month for the past 2 years. Today I took my sister & her family here insisting this was the best place to grab Sushi. We ordered the first round of food at 8pm & then we ordered the second round no food showed up! I kept asking the waitress where the food was & she kept saying it s coming soon. Not thinking of it, I ordered some takeout & in no time that was wrapped & ready. Then I asked the waitress again where the food was, her answer was we had to wait 20 minutes for the food as there were only two sushi chefs working! I asked to speak to the manager & said there was none. It seems the place has changed hands. The service used to be ok, now it s non existent! The food used to be great, now just good. Was very embarrassing to say the least, ordered desserts & paid the bill, it seems children 8 & above are classified as adults, very very expensive for a mediocre place. Time for change, they say good things always come to an end, well this place has been blacklisted by me, my family & friends. At this rate, attitude, service I don t see them surviving! I would truly want to see a reply by the new owners!

Tipical all you can eat. The place needs a renovation because it looks a little old fashioned. The food was so so and the service was slow and they forgot some orders and we have to remind it them many times. I start to think that many all you can eat forget on purpose customer's orders.

I've been a huge fan of Yang's Kitchen since moving to Toronto. When I have a craving for AYCE sushi, I tend to head here. Over the last few visits however, they seem more interested in turning over the table for the next batch of people. They are notorious for missing orders and you always have to flag down your waitress. The food however is great but the service can be improved.

Very very bad service. The seating arrangements in this restaurant is also very bad, seats are close to each other, floors are a bit dirty. Food was average-above average.

Clean establishment with quality food at a reasonable price. Great for take out and, with restrictions lifted, spacious enough to seat patrons far apart.

Would recommend to family and friends.

There were clearly empty tables but after waiting by the sushi bar for 5 mins, no one even bothered to ask if we need help or need a table. After finally flagging down a staff to give us a table, no one bothered to come by to see if we are ready to order at all!! If you eat here, expect no standard service whatsoever. You will need to get up and hunt for a server's attention.

The food was good really good but just the service was annoying we had to ask several times for our order and whenever we did it took them 10 to 15 minutes to get our order right and then when someone else comes to take our order it totally forgot that another server came to ask us so that was very frustrating it seems like they were not organized and how can you run a restaurant not being organized
