“Stopped in really quickly for a spicy salmon roll and it was made to perfection. The flavours were well balanced and the salmon didn’t have a weird fishy flavour. The server was really nice as well. Would definitely return to try other items on their menu“

“Really nice experience! The restaurant was clean, the washroom was very clean. The service was amazing; I got greeted as soon I came into the restaurant, the cashier was great when I wad ordering, and she even came to me while I was eating to check that everything was good. And, of course, the food was amazing, as is usually with Edo. I wholeheartedly recommend this place!“

“SO DELICIOUS!!! My fiancé and I went here for the first time since 2019 and it seems a lot of things changed in the best way possible. We had the lunch AYCE for $28.99 and the salmon sushi and sashimi were so fresh and creamy. The sushi rice had a perfect balance of flavour as well. We're always trying different AYCE places and always find common issues like the salmon not tasting fresh and bland sushi rice. I felt the old Makimono was also like this but we're so glad we tried them again bc everything is now delicious!!! The fried/grilled food was also amazing!

The staff were also so nice and welcoming to us 😊

They have a dessert bar and a new points/rewards system where you can redeem fun items (my last picture hehe)

Overall amazing experience ✨️“

“From the outside, this sushi spot looks a bit old and creepy, but don’t let that fool you — once you walk in, it’s super clean and well-kept.

We went for the all-you-can-eat dinner after 3 PM and everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. Honestly, we enjoyed every single dish — definitely a must-try if you love sushi.

Ordering is done through a tablet, which makes it easy and fast. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and even the washrooms were clean, which is always a good sign.

Overall, a great experience and a pleasant surprise. I’d happily come back!“

“Just tried Midami Sushi in downtown Whitby for the first time and all the 5 star google reviews were true. The staff were great and the food was amazing quality with huge portions for the price. We didn’t order sushi but had the Chicken Poke bowl and the chicken teriyaki. salad and miso soup included were also top notch. Highly recommend“

“Dinner was so good tonight as 6 of us enjoyed the Teppanyaki! Great entertainment and the food was spectacular. 5* and highly recommend.“

“I have been meaning to try this place for years, due to a friend telling me about it. The food is quality, and you can see the care in the presentation. To eat the fresh onigiri for lunch is very delightful, soft rice pillow of savoury. The popular one is the beef sukiyaki, but I was very delighted by the salmon one. Friday and Saturday get very busy, so advise planning ahead and ordering ahead for take out. Perfect for quiet lunch.“

“great food and friendly staff my go to sushi spot“

“Sakada is my go-to spot whenever I need a quick and satisfying meal to tackle any cravings. Their chicken or beef teriyaki on rice never disappoints — it’s always fresh, flavourful, and exactly what I’m looking for.

Their sushi is just as amazing and always hits the spot, no matter what kind of craving I have. On top of that, their prices are so reasonable for the quality you get, which makes it even better.

Whether I’m grabbing something quick or sitting down for a meal, Sakada is consistently delicious and reliable. Highly recommend! 🍱🍜🍣“

“Best Spicy Salmon Maki in the city! Great service and awesome vibe - highly recommend if you’re in the area!“

“Fresh, delicious sushi and other food! I loved how they used brown rice which is healtheir for you, also they did not over use soy sauce on their dishes.
One of the best spots in Durham Region! The staff were very friendly and accommodated my glutten free needs. They were always busy and had people waiting for a table when we left. Our first time here and we will be back!“

“I was wandering around the food court at the mall in Pickering, looking for something to eat. Edo Japan caught my attention so I tried their Teriyaki Chicken Bento Box and it was really good, better than I expected! It was freshly cooked to order and had really nice flavours with generous portions. The bento box meal also included California rolls, gyoza, and a drink. Great deal, good food! I'll be back!“

“Amazing sushi!! Simply delicious! Everything was fresh, the eel was amazing, so was the tempura calamari, the seaweed salad, the Alaska roll— to die for! The salmon and white tuna sushi —so buttery! Service was fast and friendly—can’t wait to go back!! 5 star all the way! Oh, and you’ve got to try the ginger ice cream!!!“
