    You walk in and are greeted very professionally. The service is perfect. I love the robata bar. No of a corner so you don't have to look sideways at your dinner companion. Grab lesser know fish collar

    Sit at the sushi bar. There is a small board showing what's fresh and still available. The blue fin toro absolutely melts in your mouth

    Really high quality sashimi, friendly staff, and very authentic. The decor is a little dated, but it's legit.

    Truly AAA-grade Sushi and Sashimi, priced at an expected but still very reasonable premium. Best in Toronto? Maybe...but it's probably the best I've had so far

    Anago (Salt water eel) is eye-roll excellent. This may be the only place in Toronto that has it...or at least one of few. Worth the arm and leg paid, but i do miss my arm.

    You can have dinner in adorable little Washitsu-style lounges! The staff is very nice, representing the Japanese culture. And get the Sashimi!

    Amazing authentic Japanese restaurant. One of the best missoshirus that I've had in Canada. Warm and cordial service!

    Just okay.. Anago was not fresh and very dry. Soba was good with a tasty broth and sashimi fresh. They had uni from Japan but very little uni in sushi.

    Good sushi but the rolls are really small. I got the salmon & spicy tuna rolls and enjoyed them.

    The black cod looks a little scrawny on the plate, but it is so delicious! Try it!

    Ask them for market price of fishes on side black board between sushi chefs. (Eg. Blue fin toro sashimi today is $18/ 3 PC's)

    For something different, try the Shabu Shabu (Japanese hot pot). It's fun with friends and super tasty.

    Very Japanese in both service and patronage. You'd think it would be better than average (at twice the price).

    Always check out the chalkboard beside the sushi bar to find out what's fresh.
