What these findings mean

Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

  • Food temperature controlHigher risk

    Bacteria multiply fastest between about 4 °C and 60 °C (40 °F to 140 °F). Inspectors check that cold food stays cold, hot food stays hot, cooked food is cooled quickly, and that staff have accurate thermometers. Temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning, so these are treated as critical findings.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 9, 2022. For example: 2 Are proper temperature controls maintained to ensure safe storage and display of foods?

  • Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk

    Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.

    Recorded once on February 6, 2024. For example: 3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?

  • Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk

    Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.

    Recorded once on March 9, 2022. For example: 6 Are the premises designed and equipped to ensure safe food handling?

    best places for fresh sushi on campus. also tries to accommodate gluten-free options.

    To be honest, these guys are okay for university food, but they're still over-priced and not the greatest quality. A small salmon roll is around $5, and there isn't much to it. Having said that, I eat here pretty often because it's one of the better options on campus, and they're quite lovely people. The service is always quick and friendly!

    This is the worst sushi i've ever had, would never buy from here again. The menu advertised avocado being in both of the rolls i ordered yet neither of them actually contained a piece of avocado. The spicy tuna roll also advertised spicy mayo and it was just hot sauce in a thin line on top. Very disappointed in my food, would not recommend to anyone.

  • Jonathon Smith

    Staff are lowkey racist. Completely skipped over me when I was there first to serve another Asian person. Smh

    This place has come a long way from when I first started coming to university here. It’s still a little rice heavy, but at least you now can see and taste what’s inside your roll, and it’s generally pretty tasty.
