I tried their Chicken Teriyaki Rice bowl, it was good and was wholesome. Based on the price, they serve good portion of food. You can also choose your spice level based on your preference. Recommended to everyone.

The food is fine, the service is fine. When I have ordered sizzling shrimp over many years it included mushrooms. I really like mushrooms in this dish. Recently however mushrooms are not included in this dish, disappointing. I will likely not be ordering from Edo again as a result.

Withholds mushrooms every time I order. On Ubereats there's even an option to ask for no mushrooms but you won't get any anyways. What's the deal Edo? We both know the bowls are supposed to include mushrooms. It's practically the best part. I've ordered from this location through Uber like 6 times and they've skipped my mushrooms EACH AND EVERY TIME. At least Uber refunded me completely each time. You guys have lost hundreds of dollars in refunds over a couple handfuls of mushrooms lol. Hope it's been worth it.

Been going here for as long as I can remember while working in the mall at one of the shops inside. Food has always been decent but recently they've taken away the mall worker discount!I can't understand why its gone as they were one of the few places that gave even 10%. Super disappointed in them, clearly it's just greed as the discount was around for years and never more than $2-3 dollars off. It was nice to have perks for being in the mall :(.

I’ve enjoyed Edo to varying degrees over many years. This location had almost always provided relatively food quality. I’m however quite disappointed by the choice to switch from short grain white rice to medium grain white rice. Much like you expect Arborio for risotto, basmati for briyani, it’s typical to have short grain rice with teriyaki. It’s not a big deal, but very much noticeable and has become a missing pleasure, or a new displeasure when eating here. Minor I know, but it’s like a splinter in the arch of my foot! Very sad :-( please bring back short grain white rice

The orange chicken special is inedible. The sauce lacks even a hint of orange. The sauce is more of a weak gravy than a glaze.. The chicken was undercooked and woody. Couldn't get to the rice and vegetables because the sauce saturated them. Staff disappeared into the back to prep the meal. One cook cleaned surfaces then handled food without washing hands.

I used to love Edo so much but now every time I get it it tastes different and not in a good way. Usually just skip it

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE 3.5 stars: it's decent and a nice change of pace from the rest of the food court. Quality along Japanese cuisine lines however, faces stiff competition from the nearby Hiro Sushi Xpress, which is arguably higher in every regard.=== 2. FOOD Chicken Teriyaki ($11.95):With your choice of white or brown rice, you get diced chicken with 0 to 2 scoops of teriyaki sauce and a variety of griddle-fried, chopped vegetables: broccoli, cabbage, and carrots.Adding $4.50 makes any meal a "bento", where you can choose two sides; I happened to choose a 4-piece California Roll and 2-pieces of shrimp tempura.The food is fine, but the nearby Hiro Sushi Xpress just a couple of shops down from the food court seems to have higher quality food in all regards: better chicken, better veg, better California rolls, etc.=== 3. SERVICE The service seems fine; the food is served relatively quick. However, who you get serving you seems to be one of two cooks at the griddle and there's no number for your order, just callouts of food. Choosing a popular dish like teriyaki chicken is something that prompts multiple people to step forward, which can cause confusion. Water is available self-serve with plastic cups at the end of the kiosk.=== 4. ENVIRONMENT Bring one, bring all to the Hillside Centre food court: big, bright, and open, it's good room for everyone and their wheelchairs and baby strollers, if you have them. Parking is also easy to get in the spacious mall lot outside.

Food here is usually good but I just saw one of the cooks use the washroom and leave without washing his hands.
