Love the dim sum. Affordable dinner for 2. Will keep going back.

Ordered the Katsudon, and it was fantastic. The portion size was on point and the Katsu and egg was very flavourful. The staff were very friendly and kind, will definitely come again!

One of my favourite places to eat! I'm in love with their tonkatsu ramen. Everyone is very kind and the service is impeccable. The decor is warm and inviting. I highly recommend this place. :)

My new favorite sushi place in the city , a little hidden view from the street you come down some stairs and just order everything at the counter and sit after ( aka the servers wont take your order at the table but they do deliver the food at your table ) you pay upfront , it’s practical unless you have free room for desert.

We sat and the ambiance is like manga style with a lot a books in Japanese around us , dont get fooled by the decoration because the food is AMAZING trust me I have been to many fancy Japanese restaurants and this one is just as delicious ! We ordered a little bit of everything my personal opinion on the hot sushis ( smoke salmon ) not my cup of tea but my date loved it . And the seaweed salad very tasty, we almost got back again to the restaurant 2 days later because we loved it so much .

So guys if you are looking for a delicious sushi this is the place ! ( i am not even sponsoring this lol ) out of true enjoyment of a lovely night out

Ko-Doraku has managed to create an extremely cozy atmosphere with a low key cafe bookstore vibe that is especially inviting on rainy days.

The service is excellent, but the food, both the sushi and main meals, are average. I personally wasn't a fan of their miso soup, but that is really is just personal preference on my part. Other people I ate with here did like the miso soup.

It is kind of funny that both Zen House and Ko-Doraku are right next door to one another while serving a similar niche. If you're looking for a decent bite of food with an excellent atmosphere, I would definitely recommend Ko-Doraku. If you're looking for excellent food, and are less interested in the overall atmosphere, I would recommend heading next door to Zen House.

As someone who regularly orders Japanese food from different places, this is the first time I got served burnt unagi (eel) which is of course bitter and dry.

The food here is tasty, and the atmosphere is pleasant, but the portion sizes are disappointing for the price. I tried the sushi combo and takoyaki balls, which came to $40, but the portions were so small that I left feeling hungry. While the service was friendly, it couldn’t quite make up for the lack of value in the meal. For what I paid, I expected much more in terms of both quantity and satisfaction.

At least 11 years since I've had the Ko Doraku roll and it's still amazing!
