Sherbrooke

Review Summary

Reviews of Sushi Taxi mix strong praise for freshness, flavor, and presentation with several dishes lauded for creativity and a poke bowl described as outstanding in town, and a visit in Sherbrooke being hailed as the best sushi restaurant there with a capable team. Service is generally described as solid and attentive, yet experiences vary with some complaints about takeout delays, inconsistent greeting, and a troubling incident tied to an avocado allergy that led to a hospital visit and affected the service rating. Value for money receives mixed feedback, with some feeling portions or prices do not match expectations and occasional billing oversights where the lunch special is not applied. Hygiene and ambience receive mixed signals, including a report of dirty dishware and a note to improve indoor plant decor. On the bright side, many reviewers commend the variety and vegetarian friendly options and a memorable celebration, while acknowledging that the dining room can feel busy or slow at times.View restaurant profile
