Soko is a small Japanese restaurant located in the Fairmont Hotel, known for its fresh sushi and intimate atmosphere. The chefs prepare rolled sushi and side dishes like miso soup and edamame right in front of guests. The setting is cozy and wheelchair accessible. The food quality is excellent, with highlights including the O’Toro nigiri, sashimi assortment, and the chef’s 6 course meal. Recently, customers enjoyed a 7 course Omakase dinner with very fresh fish and ingredients, offering flavors as good as in Japan. The tiny, intimate environment makes diners feel transported to Tokyo, especially during the chef’s meticulous preparation. The wagyu beef course was a standout, melting in the mouth. Staff are friendly and willing to help explain courses when asked, and the wasabi is freshly made from their own plant. Additionally, Sunday brunch featuring smoked salmon eggs Benedict has received praise for being one of the best, with excellent service and ocean-facing rooms available. Making a reservation is recommended to sit at the counter and watch the sushi chefs in action. Soko is a must-visit for sushi lovers and those seeking a special dining experience.
