Kaoi Sushi

For food court sushi, it’s pretty good. Especially if the owner makes it. His assistants aren’t as good. He’s expanded his menu to include Korean dishes as well. The food court itself is kind of depressing with two of the restaurants and several shops closed down. Lots of parking.

Great tasting fresh sushi all the time, also a lot of variety to choose from, and affordable

Really good sushi and Korean fare. Like others have said, don’t judge a book by it’s cover! Much better food than most large Sushi restaurants, the fried octopus is amazing.
It’s located in a small Chinese mall you would never even know existed.
Awesome, fresh, fast and good value.
If you’re in the area, a must try

Great deal! We got a delicious platter for a very reasonable price. Our platter was a sashimi/​sushi combo. It’s definitely a pick-​up type of place (the cafeteria the restaurant is in isn’t very conducive to hanging around). The service was pleasant. I would recommend that you find their menu and call and pre-​order. We didn’t do that, so we had a lot of awkward hanging around a plaza that was closing down. The pieces of fish were large and they tasted fresh. They also gave us plenty of soya sauce and wasabi.

Please don’t judge the restaurant by the cover! It’s way better than how it looks like.
I ordered the Korean beef ribs as well as the Crazy Roll sushi. The rice and the ribs were excellent. The ribs were tender and really tasteful. As for the sushi, they were good. But the rice wasn’t sticky enough so they were falling apart. Not too much rice, just enough so you can taste the other ingredients.
You can only pay cash which can be an issue for a lot of people but there’s an ATM right beside with a 1,75 $ charge for it to use.
Overall I’m really satisfied. I got out with a bill of only 16 $ for a huge portion. I usually always finish my plate but couldn’t this time.
I just can’t wait though to find a sushi place as good and as creative as the one we can find in Québec!

Sushi was okay at best. Had better. Loved the shrimp tempura for $ 5. Best part of our dinner

Kaoi Sushi is located in the food court of the Mississauga Chinese Centre (a.k.a. Sino Mall). The food court at the Mississauga Chinese Centre is like a much smaller, dirtier and sadder version of the food court at First Markham Place. It’s all independent vendors, no big name chains.
I went here with my parents and we got food from different vendors and then shared. At Kaoi Sushi (which serves Korean as well as Japanese dishes) we got the pork dumpling, rice cake and noodle soup ($ 5.99).
The bowl of soup was rather large and it had 2 boiled dumplings in it, lots of Korean rice cakes, and a good portion of thin noodles. It also had napa cabbage, carrots and zucchini.
The broth was ok, but nothing too remarkable. Not too salty which is good, but not all that flavourful. The dumplings were filled with ground pork and onions. There were a lot of rice cake pieces, so many that they stuck together. They were chewy and delicious. The thin noodles were a good consistency, not too mushy.
They have a hot tea dispenser near the cash register and you can help yourself to free hot tea.
For the price, the soup was good, but if I return, I would probably try something else.
They also do catering. When we were there, I saw them preparing huge sushi platters.

One of my favorite Korean/​Japanese takeout/​cafeteria places. Everything I had here was quite delicious and the guy that makes the sushi is super nice regardless wether you order sushi or from the korean side next to him. I like the fresh fruit bubble tea but some people prefer fake powdered tea over this. It’s not the best fresh fruit tea but it’s good enough to accompany the delicious food. Did I mention the menu choices are fantastic? Kinda hard to choose every time I go.

Location: Mississauga «Chinatown», at the food court which has been cleaned up recently. Was formerly quite grungy, but now just semi-​grungy.
(Aside: Anyone in the Chinese community in Miss KNOWS that «Chinatown» is a ghost town as T&T, Oceans, B-​Trust and other such grocery stores/​plazas have popped up! So I think «Chinatown» is sadly a place for the neighbouring buildings and tourists to see the wall, then get back on the tour bus.)
Since I forgot my cell phone, I couldn’t take photos, but there are pics of various Korean dishes, sushi rolls surrounding Kaoi’s booth. What sucked was that it lacked description, re: what’s in a Yum Yum, HK, Spicy Dragon Lady, Mavis rolls? So as a first-​timer, it’s quite intimidating to be inundated with images, but having no info.
I think I also ordered wrong: Special Roll Combo. 2 out of the 3 rolls were zigzagged in mayo-​based sauces as opposed to having that flavour incorporated into the makis. I had to scoop most of the sauce out since I was trying to be health-​conscious, but what I did eat though was GOOD! Again, I didn’t have any actual fish in my rolls, just shrimp tempura + imitation crab.
I’d definitely try again, even for Korean dishes, and not order rolls with sauce on top!
P. S. Contrary to what another Unilocaler mentioned, the prices AREN’T «crazy low». There were pics of various rolls and rolls #1−20 were $ 7.99each OR $ 13.99 for 2. Depending on the size/​amount of fish, it’s an ok price, but I wouldn’t go as far as to say low.

This place is in a Asian food court. The prices are crazy low and the food quality is exceptional. This place will not disappoint. The rice is spot on. I had the Spicy Squid with rice and my GF had the maki bento which was in her words «really really good for the price». We both will definitely be returning to try more of their very large menu. If you want selection, this is definitely a joint you need to check out. These guys are on the web as well at
. CHECK THEM OUT.
One thing, this is definitely not a first date kind of place, as it is in a food court.

Ordered take-​out today and was pleasantly surprised. The staff was very helpful over the phone and helped me customize two sushi trays for my family. Location threw me off a bit but as soon as I saw the rolls I was confident that we had made a good choice. Luckily we were right! The whole family enjoyed the mix of sashimi and special rolls. I would highly recommend Kaoi Sushi and look forward to trying more of their menu! Great prices too!

Nobody wants to eat ayce sushi? That’s okay I’ll always go here to fulfill my craving!
I’ve seen three different owners at this place the first one moved back to korea and the 2^nd moved to North York, now there is a young couple running the place and even though the owners have changed the quality of the food is still good.
The place is hidden away at Mississauga Chinatown, inside of the mall. At first glance it looks really sketchy to a point where you don’t even want to try it. Don’t let it fool you b/​c the food is fantastic.
There is a large variety of options considering the place is tiny. You got the usual maki rolls and sashimi and they also serve korean food. Mind you I have yet to try the korean food but give me time and i will.
To me what makes or breaks sushi or maki rolls is the rice, of course theres the freshness of the fish too, but without good rice I will not finish the roll, I’ll just eat the filling. As for here you guessed it, the rice is fresh with the right flavour and consistency, it’s perfect! One thing that is hit or miss is the sashimi unfortunately. Some days it’s fresh other days it’s frozen so I would avoid this place in general if you’re just looking for sashimi.
No meal is complete without bubble tea and the have it for $ 3. You have the usual flavours, taro, honey dew and 10 other different flavours to fullfill that bubble tea craving. Come on you know asian food in general is not satisfying unless you have a bubble tea accompanied with it. :-p
If you’re having a party and want to bring some sushi they have three options for a party platter. I’ve ordered one of the platters before and it was the first item gone at the party. :-D. One thing though if you plan on getting a party platter during the weekend you could be waiting up to an hour maybe even longer if you do not call in ahead of time. Last thing, only bring cash, no debit no credit!
Items to definetly get
— when it’s cold out the ramen noodles with cali rolls
— dynamite roll
— double sushi
— chirashi donburi (I know I said its hit or miss with the sashimi but I love getting this item from time to time)
— party platter
