Ordered here for takeout. As a vegetarian I wish there were some more options, but I was pretty happy with what I got. I wish there were some more sauce packets included with my spring rolls though!

Takoyaki is frozen not fresh octopus is like eating rocks because it is months old. Very disappointing. I've to mention everything else I ordered was rotten.
I recommend nobody eating here untill they can meet sanitary and cooking standards or you will get sick

I ordered food last night and when the order came incorrect I called the restaurant to inform them. They flat out admitted that when they are busy they will give the customer whatever they have available, I have never heard of that in my life. The food went into the garbage as no one liked what they gave us, they didn’t even bother checking if anyone was allergic to this random sushi we were given instead, possibly poisoning/killing someone. No apology was given in any way, shape or form. The lady kept asking me over and over what sushi I got instead like answering that question would somehow make things better. No refund was offered in the slightest, I had to ask for one. Generally I would have shrugged this off but this was possibly the worse service I’ve ever had.

I’ve ordered from Izumo a few times to try it out before doing a full review.
When I first went here they were still open for dine in and I loved how intimate the dining area was. Though it’s quite small, it’s not often busy. Since Covid they started doing takeout only. They also *usually* give a discount when you pay with cash like most sushi places. Lately they’re doing a 20% discount on cash payments.
They are a family owned business and have very kind customer service. If you’re ordering in a large group and getting one of the party trays, you’ll be paying a bit less than other sushi places in the area, however the size of their maki rolls are smaller than most places. The quality can be hit or miss, I have gone sometimes and found the fish didn’t smell as fresh or that some pieces were a bit dry unfortunately.
That being said, my most recent experience with them was positive; our order was ready on time, we got a 20% discount for paying with cash, and they packed a small container of soy sauce for each of us - we all like different levels of wasabi in our soy sauce, so this was lovely. Most of our sushi pieces tasted fresh and the maki rolls all had a unique flavour to them, which was nice.
Sushi is one of my favourite foods, I eat it at least once a week. In Kingston, I have three favourite sushi places that are hard to beat in terms of quality and taste. Therefore I don’t think I’ll be back here anytime soon for sushi. Instead I’ll return when they open indoor dining and try out their noodle dishes.
