Sushi Recommendation needed!

Ok, so a group of people from work are planning on going for Sushi on Saturday and I really need some recommendations on where we should go.

This is kind of a random event, we arent a group of foodies and there are atleast a few people that havent had Sushi before. We are looking for a good AYCE Sushi place that is reasonably priced(not expensive!!), located preferably close to the 401(east or west end doesnt matter), the place has to have free parking, and they should be able to accomadate 10-12 people. Id prefer not to make reservations but if need be, Ill pass that task off to someone else.

This place should also have more than just Sushi, maybe some things that our non-sushi eating friends can turn to if Sushi isnt right for them.

One friend mentioned a place at Martin Grove and Highway 7, I personally dont know the place but if you know of it, let me know how it is and if it fits what we are looking for!

Thanks in advance!

        thanks for the rec's, turns out we are going to Akita, hopefully its good!

        Whats it like anyway, is it an AYCE Buffet or do you just order off the menu or whats the deal?

          You order off the menu and it's all made to order.
          The wait staff does sometimes make you feel a bit rushed - they have an annoying tendency to take away the menus after your first order - but just hold onto it.
          I've been many times and the sushi has always been good - I'd echo the 7.5/10 evaluation above

      The Martin grove/Hwy 7 they are refering to is probably Akita. It's on Hwy 7 about 100 meters east of Martin Grove on the south side. It's in a strip mall with a Shopper Drug Mart. It's not too bad of a restaurant. The waitresses made me feel a little rushes, and non of them seemed to know what it was they were bring and setting on my table, but the food was tastey and a beautiful interior. For an AYCE sushi, I'd give it about 7.5/10

      But it's not really that close to the 401. It's about a 15 minute north on hwy 427.

        I think all AYCE have more then just sushi, you should be ok no matter which place you choose.
