just a small clarification, Maize, i was answering more about "traditional" sushi restaurants, not so much about AYCE ones. So, you wouldn't want to go to Suisha Gardens for all-you-can-eat ... unless you're REALLY good friends with the chef, waitress or owner! :-)
As it happens, of the three restaurants you mentioned, i believe Totoyo does do an all you can eat and has been relatively well reviewed on this site:

Jagash - I believe your info is correct... if you look at the OF Page for Kanata Sushi - Sushi Kanata you'll see that there is a reference to Sushi Kan in the "affiliated" line. So I'm guessing that Fresh Foodie made this link based on solid info.

My gf and I just tried Banc Sushi on 919 Montreal Road. I rate these AYCE sushi places by service rather than food, since they seem comparable. THe service here was great! No rude aura. No Tired, hungover looking servers. Is cream is free, but states on 2 per customer. $12.99 - $22.99. Our dinner was $19.99 a person.
Hours are 11:30-3, 5-10. Weekends they do not close 3-5.

Banc Sushi was good when I came here with 2 others, but on another occasion when I was part of a group of 18 (birthday party) the service was very disorganised and we did not get a lot of the food we had ordered. When I asked the server to show me our order so I could tell him what our party had and had not received he claimed they had lost the sheet, and I had to argue with him a little to send us out more food. Some of our party were less vocal, and left hungry.
I wouldn't go here with a large group, and I would make an extra copy of the ordering sheet in order to keep track of what dishes are brought out.
That being said, I did enjoy the food.

I have been meaning to do a report on Hockey Sushi in Kanata. We have eaten there several times and the food has always been good. I say always because we haven't always received the food we ordered. I think there is an issue with language and/or the ordering system. Regardless, everything has been tasty , especially some of the "non" sushi selections, like teriyaki, appetizers etc.
We thought we ordered edamame for 1 but it was a huge order (a large heaping bowl--quite delicious I might add). They served ketchup with the gyozo which was very strange. Just order enough on your first round, be prepared for some things not arriving, too much of others! But still good. BTW--try first on the weekend if you can. There are less crowds and the servers actually come around without being flagged--same prices!

Another vote for Hockey Sushi in Kanata. We go there for lunch on weekdays (~15$) and after a few times of never being sure whether we'd more dishes coming or not, we've started to keep a second order sheet where we check off food as it comes in.
With a group it can be a bit of a challenge to order the right amount, but by paying attention a bit you can get a handle on the progress of your meal.

Experience from Yummy Sushi (Sommerset):
The Soba and appetizers were good, maki rolls as well. Service is good, brings tea often and smiling.
However, raw fish like white tuna, salmon and mackerel not very fresh. Service not as good when you put their food in doubt. 2 of my friends had diarrhea after lunch. Bah, as I said it's all good if you stay away from raw stuffs. for those, 1000 and sushi kan are better ;)
