One of the best sushi places I've been to in the area! The prices are reasonable and the sashimi is very fresh. We ordered the love boat, which had the perfect combination of sashimi, nigiri and rolls. The sashimi was cut super thick and was very high quality. The spicy salmon maki is the best I've ever eaten and deserves a special shoutout. They stuff it with a generous amount of spicy salmon... more

Consistently great.. Every time I've been here the sushi has been excellent and so has the service. The prices are very fair and there is a good variety on the menu. Last time I went the waitress remembered my order, and I don't go all that regularly. The red pepper's kiss is the greatest of all the sushi, and definitely worth a try. They also offer whole grain rice for the philistines who... more

We visited the restaurant on a Saturday early afternoon. Even though all the tables were full, our party of 4 patiently stood by the door for 15 minutes without being greeted or acknowledged by ANY of the staff. It's also worth mentioning that there were no other patrons waiting in line in front of us.

There was one staff member attending to the phone with a difficult customer, two waitresses,... more

I've been to this sushi joint quiet a few times... there is a reason. Coming by a decent sushi joint in Richmond Hill honestly isn't bad but if I had to choose what lies in the top 5 percent; Mi Ne does hold a spot. So why 4 stars?? Simply due to the space. Considering Richmond Hill is a suburban area and not so crowded; you'd think when you step into this place; your in core downtown due to... more

Just wanted to start off by saying this place is simply amazing!! The sashimi dinner is second to none and the rolls are gargantuan and artfully crafted. The private booths are a nice touch! The saki is served warm and is of high standard!! It is my favorite sushi restaurant in North America that I have been to. I have been to many over the years!! I highly recommend!

In my opinion, Mi Ne sushi has the best rolls. I find they do a really good job stuffing the sushi so it is not majority rice. It can get crowded during business hours as the place is quite small, but comfortable and relaxing. I ended up having a really late dinner (8-9ish) and there just happened to have been a spot for us as another table for leaving.

The sushi here is always consistent and delivers on taste and quality. There's nothing different or particularly interesting about this Japanese restaurant, but they do all the classics pretty well. The fish is always fresh and flavourful, and the décor is very traditional. They run lunch combos that offer some superb value as well.

Food portion was good but service was bad. Food was slow to come and rice was not cooked properly for the sushi. This made the sushi tasted not as good it's supposed to. Waitress didn't to bother to ask us if we wanted more tea or if we wanted anything else. Instead she just brought us the bill and expected us to leave. How rude?!

My issue with them is that they don't give complimentary miso soup for any platter orders which is strange. You're in there spending $100-150 on a platter and then for a $20 Chirashi order they'll give you miso soup and an abundance of soy sauce if you're doing take out at no extra cost?

Decent sushi restaurant. Food was okay but I wouldn't say it's great. Prices are a little high for what it was. I didn't like that they only give you an hour to eat. It's not really a place you go to hang out with people. It's eat and go place. Nothing was bad about the place though. It would return if I was in the mood for sushi that's higher quality than ayce type of food.

Mi-Ne hasn't disappointed yet. All their sushi and sashimi are fresh and presented very nicely.

If I had to complain, I'd say that their seating is a bit cramped, and they NEVER have the sesame ice cream available!!! We go to so far to Mi-Ne juuuuust for the ice cream.

Otherwise, it's a great sushi restaurant to go, reasonable prices and good atmosphere.
