First visit… and wow.
Sapporo Sushi in Hamilton made a strong first impression—and not the forgettable kind.
From the very beginning, the soups set the tone: comforting, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The mango salad followed with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice—fresh, bright, and thoughtfully seasoned.
What really surprised me was the fried seafood. The shrimp and calamari were cooked exactly right—crispy without being heavy, generous portions, and most importantly, fried in good-quality oil. You can tell when oil is fresh, and this was. Light, clean, and satisfying without that greasy after-feel.
Now, the sushi.
This is where Sapporo truly separates itself from the usual all-you-can-eat experience. The rice was perfectly done, and the fish-to-rice ratio was honestly impressive—generous fish, respectful rice. That alone puts them ahead of many places. Everything tasted fresh and intentional.
Service was another highlight. Orders came out fast, smoothly, and without confusion—even with multiple tables ordering nonstop. Watching the team work was almost fascinating: quiet, efficient, minimal chatter, and clearly excellent internal communication. It’s rare to see an AYCE restaurant run this smoothly.
As for the hot dishes: the steak and salmon teriyaki were good—well cooked and enjoyable—though not my personal favorite compared to others I’ve had. Still solid.
But the real star? Shrimp Satay.
Perfectly cooked, garlicky, flavorful, and addictive. I liked it so much I ordered it twice—and I’d do it again.
Dessert wrapped things up beautifully. The sesame balls were excellent and clearly stood out. There was a nice variety overall, though the “banana” dessert tasted more like plantain, which wasn’t quite my preference—but that’s just personal taste.
A special shoutout to Riya—she was incredibly attentive, always refilling drinks and clearing plates with such a calm and friendly presence. And David, the manager, was genuinely kind and engaged. He took the time to thank us and made sure we were having a great experience, which made everything feel personal rather than transactional.
Overall, this was an outstanding first experience. Great food, fast and thoughtful service, a well-coordinated team, and management that truly cares. Only remark is that the place needs some renovation.
We left happy—and confident this won’t be our last visit.

Sapporo Food was a decent experience. The delivery arrived on time, and the food was tasty, but nothing really stood out as exceptional for me.
If you’re looking for a standard Japanese meal for convenience or delivery, it gets the job done.
It hits the spot ☺️
After being there for almost an hour, we placed another order. Shortly after, our waiter came to the table and asked if we wanted to put in any last-call orders because of the two-hour limit for the all-you-can-eat option. The problem was that we had not been there for two hours yet. I explained that a large portion of our time had been spent waiting on food. After going back and forth, she said it was fine.
We then waited another 24 minutes. A different waiter noticed we were upset, our cups were empty, and there was no food on the table. She apologized, went to the back herself, brought out a plate of sirloin steak bites, and refilled our drinks. I appreciate her for stepping in and trying to make it right.
Even though we were still under the two-hour limit, three waiters stood nearby looking at us and pointing. At that point, I waved them over, asked for the bill, and we left.
After this experience, I will not be recommending this place to anyone anymore.
The price point is very reasonable, also.
We will definitely be back. Thank you, Sapporo! 🙂
