I've never seen one of those around here in Montreal. They're all sushi bars 
where you actually sit at the bar and the chef makes them to order, and a 
section of tables where you can order from the menu. No fun. The absolutely 
very best sushi around here is a takeout place about the size of my kitchen. 
I've never had fish this fresh, rice this tender and nori this un-rubbery... 
One of the rare places where the chef is actually a Japanese (most are 
either Chinese or Vietnamese). When we do make it to Japan, I hope we get to 
try a good Japanese one... see how it compares :-)
