Went with family to Gal's Sushi. It is located across the road from the Hilton Suites hotel in Markham.Lots of free parking and the restaurant is spacious.Ordered the bento box meals for the family. Overall, food was ok...but very small portion size when compared to the Japanese restaurants in downtown Toronto. Note, the prices were also approx 20-25% more than a comparable bento box in Toronto downtown.Not sure I can fully recommend based on portion size and prices.

Many People think sushi as the mainstream of, of sometimes the only Japanese food culture. Hundreds and thousands of Japanese restaurant entrepreneur and chef have been devoting their lives to introduce Japanese food with sushi, tempura or teriyaki in dec

I loved the interior design of the place! The sushi chefs were positioned on a higher platform so as to be able to oversee all the customers, it looked like. The restaurantâs seating was arranged into quadrants with wooden partitions between each party. It was so nice!We ordered a lot of izakaya dishes to share. I loved the variety of food we had at this meal. There were both Japanese and Korean items on the menu. They offered items like sushi, udon, ramen, nabe (hot pot), okonomi yaki, and lots of izakaya small dishes.The Edamame was the first to arrive. I was pleasantly surprised with how large the portion was. The beans were a bit hard for my taste at first.The Nagasaki Chanpon was a large pot of pork broth with veggies, pork, and seafood. You could add noodles to it too. This was great for a cold winterâs day. The pork broth was sooo flavourful and delicious!!! I didnât expect that at all. The amount of seafood in it was generous too.I havenât had Okonomi Yaki in a while. This one was pretty good. It had the Japanese mayonnaise on it and was sweet and tarty. It had slices of pork on it too.The Karaage was just okay to me. It was crispy and looked good but lacked seasoning for my taste. It came with a light green onion soy sauce too.I also ordered an item from the nabe section. This Tamago Mushi was a Korean style steamed egg with shrimp in it! There was a bit of clear broth in it too which was really good. Comfort food to the max!Last but not least I wanted to try their Tsuki Roll. When it arrived, I was surprised to see that the roll was made with purple rice instead of typical white rice. This was a sold roll; the size was not too big and the raw scallop on top of the dynamite roll was just to my liking. I liked this meal and definitely wouldnât hesitate to return in the future. The service was really attentive too; the server kept coming by our table to see if we needed anything and to clear empty dishes from our table.

Four of us came for an early dinner and were not disappointed. The menu is quite extensive. We ordered two boats (one spicy). The fish were fresh, the presentation beautiful and we were surprised by the complimentary dishes provided including a wonderfully cooked fish head.Service was friendly and efficient. Wait staff was pleasant and helpful in answering our questions. Basically excellent service.Will be coming back.

We had been here once before many years ago and remembered it being a great experience. This time was not at all how we remembered it. Our family of four went for dinner on a Saturday evening. It was busy but not crowded, yet! We ordered with little help from a server who did not suggest amounts or dishes to pretty much "first time" customers even though we asked many questions and seemed indecisive. In the end we ended up ordering waaaaaaay too much food and felt terrible about being so wasteful. They served us warm tap water (no ice even after I asked for some) in not the cleanest glasses. Our BBQ items were several kinds of meat, beef, chicken, lamb. shrimp (with shells and heads still on--VERY difficult to peel and eat afterward) and some salmon. Our grill became very dirty with charr after a short time but no-one came to change it out! As a result it started to smoke so much that we could hardly sit at our table. So, I began to scrape off what I could. This way we could at least finish grilling what we ordered and not die from smoke inhalation! I had to do this several more times before the end of our dinner.I should stress that when the place starts to get busy, and all the grills are going, it gets really warm and RIDICULOUSLY smokey!!! Your hair, your skin, your clothes, purse and coat all smell like you sat around a fire pit all night, which you did I suppose! Either way, I wouldn't suggest going anywhere afterwards, the smell is overwhelming for hours and lingers for days! I had to wear a different coat to work on Monday! And let me be clear, I LIKE the smell of fire/BBQ just not for the long.As for the quality and taste of the meats and other dishes, they were simply BLAND! They looked seasoned but all I tasted was salt. Kimchi smelled like manure? Seaweed salad had very little taste. I can honestly say I did not enjoy any part of the meal. I only gave this place a 2 star because its a cool idea and I like the idea of grilling my meats fresh. I think I will have to try another place in the future, luckily this place did not turn me off to Korean BBQ entirely. Will not return.
