Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the fresh, beautifully presented sushi, with creative rolls and perfectly grilled sticks alongside. Named dishes include the wagyu skewers, called the best dish by far, the chicken gyozas, an absolute favourite, and the Perfect Day selection meal, described as ideal for trying a mix of flavours and very filling. Close behind is the service, with servers described as friendly, attentive and ready to explain the menu in detail. One diner with food allergies singles out the allergen menu, which shows which dishes can be customised without the server going back and forth to the kitchen. The main reservation comes from one reviewer who found service a little on the slow side and the food good but not blow you away. Another noted the dining room was surprisingly quiet at lunch. Two celebrating parties describe a personal touch at the end of the meal: a birthday card and cake on the house, and complimentary dessert and ice cream for a parents' anniversary.

“The Good: Service was friendly, but a little on the slow side. The atmosphere was great, comfortable, spacious and clean. The food was good but not blow you away amazing. Restrooms were clean too. We had a variety of dishes as you can see in the pictures. The best dish by far was the wagyu skewers. The Bad: Nothing to report. The Ugly: Nothing to report.”

“We had an amazing dining experience at Sushi & Sticks, and it was the perfect place to celebrate my parents' 30th wedding anniversary. The food was absolutely outstanding and every dish was beautifully presented, incredibly fresh, and full of flavour. You can really tell that great care goes into every plate. A special thank you to Tashia, who made our evening truly unforgettable. Her service was exceptional from start to finish. She took the time to explain the menu in detail, offered fantastic recommendations, and made us feel so welcome throughout the evening. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable. To top it all off, Tashia surprised us with complimentary dessert and ice cream to help celebrate my parents' anniversary.”

“One of the best restaurant experiences I have had in a long time! Very kind and helpful staff, quick service, clean, and great food! The food allergen menu, in particular, stunned me and really made the trip. As someone with (non contact) food allergies, having a menu with uncommon allergens and also knowing what dishes can be customisable without having to make the server go back and forth to the kitchen was absolutely incredible, and this is undoubtedly the best allergen-friendly restaurant I have been to! I would highly recommend a trip here, and will definitely be returning myself!”
