At Sushi Hinata, reviews give an overall mixed impression, with some guests praising friendly, efficient service and good value for lunch. Others complain about the food quality, mentioning miso soup that tastes like water, a diluted sauce on peanut butter dumplings, sushi that looks impressive but has too much rice and little fish, and several dishes served cold. Positive notes include fast service, attentive staff, a lively atmosphere, and some meals described as fresh and enjoyable, with several diners saying they would return. A number of comments highlight the restaurant as a standout option in the area, even drawing visitors from outside the city, while a few reviews acknowledge improvement after past criticisms. The tone across reviews suggests Sushi Hinata can deliver solid service and decent value, but experiences with food quality vary and may depend on what is ordered.
First time visit. The wait staff was very friendly & helpful with the allergies amongst us. Appetizers were great especially the pork dumplings with peanut sauce. Unfortunately, the sushi wasn't as fresh as I'm used to. The sushi felt dried out, not sure if it was a combination of the rice & nori, or just the rice itself. Nevertheless, something was off.
Also, the take out menu posted online has several platters offered, but is not offered for dine in; just something to be aware of. We opted out of taking the all you can eat since it really isn't necessary to pay that much; ordered the platter of 52 pieces & 3 extra rolls along with our appetizers, & the food was plenty to feed 4 of us & leave leftovers for another person.

Service super rapide, les sushis sont très bon! La serveuse est toujours très gentille avec nous & mes enfants. Je recommande fortement pour un sushi à volonter 😁!
Very nice, friendly & efficient service we had for lunch on a saturday afternoon. Food was fine, lunch is about $30 per person, we definitely had our moneys worth. Will be back 👌
Honnêtement, le service est excellent. Les serveuses sont fun, souriantes & attentionnées. Le service est rapide, les assiettes arrivent vite, l'eau est remplie en quelques minutes. Sur ce point, rien à dire : c'est impeccable.
Malheureusement, tout s'écroule dès qu'on parle de la nourriture. On sent clairement que la qualité a été sacrifiée pour économiser, malgré des prix assez élevés.
La soupe miso goûtait littéralement l'eau.
Les dumplings au beurre d'arachides avaient une sauce complètement diluée, sans aucun goût d'arachides.
Les sushis ont l'air impressionnants au premier regard, mais ce n'est qu'une énorme boule de riz avec très peu de poisson. En plus, plusieurs sushis étaient froids, comme s'ils sortaient directement du frigo, autant le riz que le poisson.
Le général Tao était froid.
Le poulet au citron ne goûtait pas le citron, & le poulet utilisé semblait de très mauvaise qualité, un peu comme du poulet surgelé cheap de l'épicerie.
Il y avait quelques items corrects, mais pour la majorité des plats, j'ai été extrêmement déçu. Surtout par les sushis, alors que c'est censé être leur spécialité.
J'ai voulu essayer un resto plus près de chez moi, mais j'aurais clairement dû faire 20 minutes de plus pour aller à Pointe-Claire ou à Brossard. Au final, j'ai vraiment l'impression d'avoir jeté 60 $ par la fenêtre
HEY OWNER! Can you please bring back the quality fresh sushi you use to have 4-5 yrs ago?!? I'm sorry but you're not serving pizza here, it's SUSHI! If it's not fresh it can kill someone! Wake the hell up! You're not the only place in town so maybe step it up or close down.
I really don't get the hype. Sushi served with too much rice, everything is dripping in MSG & salt. The sushi are small, with the goal that the rice will bloat you. It wasn't that delicious either, & it was clear these aren't the freshest ingredients. As someone who has been to a lot of all-you-can-eat sushis, this was my least favorite.

This is my first time at this place, & I had high expectations due to the crowd inside. Unfortunately, the sushi was disappointing; it tasted like it had been sitting in the fridge all day. I ordered a 24-piece sushi platter, & it did not meet my expectations at all. I was quite unhappy with the quality.
Food was good in general. Some things didn't taste super fresh but I still would go back. Great service & nice place but the bathroom could use a little work. 3.5 stars
I wrote a negative review couple months back, I deleted that one . The owner took care & fixed the freshness of his meals! Thank you. Best Sushi restaurant in this area, best!
