Suggestions for good Japanese Restaurants in Toronto, ON?

My sis and I are hoping to try out Japanese food for the first time, but we don't know which restaurants are good. Reasonably priced; no more than $20 per person. We're hoping for a buffet place where you serve yourself and choose what you want to eat, like chinese buffet restaurants. Or I'm not sure how the Japanese ones work. Any suggestions/reviews of Japanese restaurants you've been to or you know are great, prices, service, etc? Thanks.Suggestions for good Japanese Restaurants in Toronto, ON?
Sushi Fun in Thornhill is probably the best Japanese restaurant I have ever been to. I refuse to eat any where else. It is AYCE and only 15$ for lunch. 20$ for dinner. Make sure to get the deep fried bananas and some ice cream for dessert!Suggestions for good Japanese Restaurants in Toronto, ON?

Japanese food...you're talking about a multitude of things.



Do you want sushi? Personally, I'm not sure I'd trust a buffet that does sushi (Toronto, if you haven't guessed, isn't exactly a coastal town). I do have a couple places I trust mostly on reputation (they're not cheap).



Bowls of soba noodles...a safe option...same with a well-done miso soup.



Yakitori skewers are a fun and safe introduction.



Some of the more "unapproachable" dishes (that use "the whole animal") are an acquired taste.
