When first seated. Took about 10 minutes for a waitress to come take drink orders. Food was delicious 😋

The food was absolutely incredible However, the service left a lot to be desired. We had a 1.5-hour dining limit (from 6:00 to 7:30), but we were being rushed to leave as early as 7:00. It felt like we were being pushed out well before our time was up. To make matters worse, our beer bottles were cleared from the table before we even finished them – a small detail, but it really added to the feeling that we were being hurried along and not valued as guests.
It’s a real shame, because the food deserves praise. I’d love to come back, but only if the service becomes more respectful and mindful of the guest experience.

The lady who answered the phone so rude when I tried to book a reservation and even hung up while I was trying to find another time that works. So rude. I use to go there all the time with family and now I will never gp there after how she treated me.

Wonderful experience. We sat at the stove top table and had a wonderful show by our chef. Very skilled. Great humour. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked to order.

I went back and forth on whether I wanted to leave this review but I figured I would in case any large groups were planning on attending for a special occasion. It all started when I called to make reservations for my birthday. I initially made reservations for 15 people and the lady on the other end of the phone sounded annoyed that it was for a large group. She notified me that they had a policy of no more than 1.5hrs for guests to eat and leave, which I understand if the place is really busy and they need to turn over tables to new guests quickly, but even the Keg will have some leeway, especially if we are spending money and not just sitting around. She said she only had 8pm available, which was too late so i asked for 5pm and thankfully they could "accommodate". She also asked for me to confirm any changes and i said absolutely. A few days later, I had more people confirm so I called back to change my reservation to 19 people. The man on the other line said ok and he would update the reservation. So on the day of, I received a phone call, reconfirming my reservation, which i was happy to do. When I arrived, the waitresses weren't the most friendly when seating us, and mentioned the 15 person reservation, I advised that no, I had called to change it to 19, they tried to sit two random people at the one side of our tables but I had to ask the staff to move them to make room for two people who were running a few minutes behind (because they have a baby and got caught up), but all other 17 people were on time, ready to eat and drink. The chefs were great. Food, for what we paid was subpar, cooked well but no taste to it. For roughly $50 a plate, it would be nice to have flavorful food. Then they left us to eat, not checking if we needed anything else before bills were handed out and we had to go up to the front to pay. On their website, there is mention under the "pineapple boat" to let them know about celebrating special events like bdays and anniversaries because you'll get a special photo, these photos are plastered all over the walls. My party was not offered this, I wasn't even offered so much of a happy birthday unfortunately. I'm lucky enough that just having my friends and family there to celebrate with me was enough but I'm embarrassed that I booked a place that seemed to not appreciate the business, nor care enough to go a bit of the extra mile to make their guests day special. I ended up walking over to sammy j peppers for a glass of wine and even they gave me a free dessert and the waitress was so sweet. My advice, after spending many birthdays at the Kobe steakhouse downtown, do yourself a favor and make the trip down there. The service and food has always been exceptional.

Having never eaten at Katana or ever had Teppanyaki before we had a lot of learning to do so we could order the right amount for our party. We asked many questions about what to order and how many dishes to get since we have kids with us. It was a bumpy process at first due in large part to how lively the restaurant is but we got our order in and it was just the right amount. Our chef was great and put on a wonderful display that the kids loved. They are already asking to go back.
It was a great experience and we left there full and happy. We'll go back again and try some of the other dishes.
