We had a lovely experience yesterday evening at our omakase! Thank you so much for the DELICIOUS food. This was our first omakase and we loved the experience and all the dishes! The fish was mouthwatering and melted in your mouth!

Great food. Small table for 10 (we had 8). Service was great for a 2 person gig.

If you haven’t gone. Go. Well
Be back for another treat soon.

The food is good but some dishes repeated so I didn't feel the great performance. Taste is ok comparing with the price but don't think I will come back.

I've been wanting to go here for some time but never felt like I deserved to. Or even if I did, I never had someone who would possibly enjoy it with. So I was so excited to have been able to finally go today to celebrate @wakandinh 's birthday and do a date night. This was honestly some of the most prettiest and tastiest food I have had. These were some of my favorites tonight. They honestly were all so well thought out and meticulously prepared. I am so grateful to have experienced this Omakase service. The staff and Chef Gino were very attentive, friendly, and endearing. The ambiance was cozy and intimate. 10/10 will have to come back another time not just for the beautiful meal but Chef Gino himself. Thank you Chef for this wonderful meal! ??‍♀️

Great omakase experience. Twelve plates of sushi, curated with great flavors. Good selection of sake, beer, and wine. Great interactions with the chef and owner Gino.

What a lovely chef, and an unbelievable meal. This was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in my entire life. The service was attentive, the food thoughtful and inspired, the atmosphere comfortable and clean. On its own, the menu was incredible. Every single plate was well-described and beautifully prepared. I may never recover.And Gino… was LOVELY. I have met many chefs, and dined in fine-dining/Michelin-quality restaurants around the world. This was a superior experience. Gino was knowledgeable, kind, and friendly in a way that is truly rare. We would have come back for the food alone, but Gino made it a memory and an experience. He also personally (and kindly) chased us down to return my purse — the food was so good that I completely forgot it.Thank you — from a couple of new Canadian transplants who felt infinitely welcomed and well-fed.

WOW! Best omakase sushi I have ever had! This place did not disappoint! Gino is welcoming and very efficient. He makes his own soy sauce from 6 month aged Spanish mackerel! What?!?! I left full and happy! If you love sushi and are a foodie I would highly recommend this place! Very worth the hype!

Omakase by Gino is a 10 seat restaurant where Gino prepares all the dishes. All the dishes were great and the flavors of the fish used in the nigiri were fantastic.
My favorite dishes before the nigiri were the chawanmushi and uni pasta. The chawanmushi had great crab flavor and the texture of the noodles and uni worked really well together.

Can’t forget the excitement from chief Jino’s face when he explained about the fish of the day.Maybe you have experienced Q, Nozawa, or Shunji but this place will give you beyond and above experience than all other restaurants. ???

Second time here and just as impressed as the first. Not only does Gino make the most delicious items, he's got a few stories to tell as well.
