Sentiment analysis: The Verdict : Banal and pricey! Why this restaurant I was always suspicion and not enthusiast about Kaizen. We decided to give it a try on a Sunday night because the japanese bistro/sushi we chose was closed. :-s The First Impression Not a good! When a restaurant greets you with a bad taste advertising (girl holding a katana with sushi on it!!), it is always a bad sign. :-) The Service People were friendly. Service was quick and pleasant. Nothing to complaint. Perhaps it explains my 2 stars. :-/ The Decor It is not very Japanese! If one takes off the Japanese paintings and the big buddha it resembles any French or Italian or ... restaurant. Decor is very subjective so I won't further comment but it wasn't to my taste. :-( The Food Oh boy! There was no wow factor, no discovery... just ordinary... no more no less. I had fresher fish elsewhere in Montreal. Please don't take the grilled squid, not worth it. The tempuras (veggies) lacked the crunchiness it is supposed to have. Sushis were OK. Perhaps we were hungry. The Spider maki (soft shell crab) was not good... I think I don't need to go on! :-S The Ambiance Nothing to say here: just a regular restaurant. However it has live jazz on certain night. Jazz? Really? In a sushi restaurant? I like jazz but this goes with my comment on the decor. $$ Price The bill doesn't reflect the quality of the food! At 100$ for two without wine (including service and tax) it is not worth it. I can have the same OK food elsewhere for half the price. Perhaps my overall harsh critics comes from the fact that the sushis are pretty ordinary but overpriced! I have eaten at many sushi restaurants and Kaizen is pretty much at the bottom of the list because of this. You deserve more for your money! PV.

Sentiment analysis: This is the first auto repair shop that I have found that is HONEST!!!!!! I mean I have NEVER had a repair shop turn my business away because my Honda Accord's rear brakes were only wore down 30%. The DEALER (Henderson) said they were wore down 75%. I declined the dealers recommendations and brought it to Sun Auto. RESULT - SAVED OVER $200. Because SUN AUTO REPAIR was honest!!!!!!! But then I went back, and POW you need new struts because the others are worn out. Checked them myself and they are fine. I GUESS ALL mechanic shops are crooks. I have not been able to find an honest mechanic.

Sentiment analysis: I knew the was not going to be good when the egg rolls were pink in the inside. Who makes pink egg rolls. Then, the Chicken Egg Foo Young was plain and the gravy (which looked like country gravy served with biscuits) were on a different bowl. I didn't want smothered chicken, I wanted egg foo young. The chow mien (Lo Mein) was average as well as the shrimp fried rice. It was no better than a food court Chinese food place. It was edible, but no one in our family fought over the food. We left our food and didn't even take our left overs. $28 down the drain. My husband said, " I was extremely disappointed. The plates were so small, all of the food couldn't fit on the plate. The table was sticky." My daughter said, "Even the Fortune Cookie was nasty." I joked and said, "My fortune cookie said "Next time eat at Taco Bell.. I hope this food doesn't come back to haunt me in the middle of the night. It's just a strip mall Chinese food place.
