“Had a great visit to Feza Izakaya! Our group ordered à la carte (not the all-you-can-eat), and everything was fresh, tasty, and nicely presented. Portions were just right, service was friendly, and the vibe was cozy and welcoming. Highly recommend for a relaxed night out!“

“Great sushi, sashimi, and cooked food that has that special homestyle taste! We were hungry after a movie and thankfully Komachi was here to solve our problem! Everyone found something that they enjoyed and I'd encourage others in the area to give them a try. Also, they'll give you a discount if you pay cash. Good service, nice staff, and great food! Thank you Komachi.“

“First time there. Good variety of sushi and Korean foods. Server knew the menu and made good suggestions. He was quick to bring out sides and respond to questions. Food was delicious and fresh. The tempura shrimp was the most delicate, perfectly cooked I've ever had. Spicy pork combo gave a main with some sushi and tempurs sides. Delish, and will return!!“

“Kenji Sushi in King City is an absolute gem. The quality and care they put into every dish truly sets them apart.

The hand rolls are exceptional: Fresh, generous, and perfectly balanced. The torched oshi sushi was especially memorable: rich and, flavourful, and executed well. We were also pleasantly surprised that their party trays include oshi sushi, which was a refreshing and welcome change from the typical selections you see elsewhere.

Service was outstanding from start to finish. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and are already looking forward to returning.“

The store's ambience is calming and the cleanliness is topnotch. I usually order beef teriyaki and it's superb each time. For a fastfood, this is the best option being newly made!“

I am still dreaming of my dinner If you want All you can eat, this is not your restaurant, this is for a wonderful authentic, dining experience that you won't forget. Enjoy!“

“Really great anime-themed cafe/restaurant, hidden gem with amazing torched sushi! Very limited seating FYI but great for takeout or later in the evening - rivals other known torched sushi spots on quality at a better price point. Would be super popular if located in the heart of downtown Toronto“

“The most delicious rice balls, I have ever eaten and I am a foodie and Japanese Canadian. The rice was cooked perfectly and the filling was delicious and plentiful. A delicious lunch.

“I always get their 40 or 60 piece assorted trays and they're always really good and pretty fresh. Also close to home and accessible.“

“Hot, delicious, fresh food! Come with a hearty appetite since it’s all you can eat!!“

“The staff here is fantastic every time. The food is phenomenal and the quality is second to none.“

“Seriously wanted to gatekeep this place it’s so good in terms of price and taste.

One night we ordered mixed tray for $38. It has some sashimi, some rolls some makis, and torched sushi. Everything was well executed. Even with a simple crab roll, it’s so chunky and you can taste the nori and crab it’s freshly made. If I have to pick on one thing it would be the sashimi. It’s a tad bit too cold and some has tendon.

The other day we ordered a salmon lover and a chicken bento. On the menu it says the chicken bento comes with all these things like tempuras, choice of Cali roll/spicy salmon/spicy crab roll, gyoza, and a pop for $16! When I opened the boxes it’s just beyond my expectation! The chicken has crispy skin and like a steak not like the teriyaki chicken bits at the food court! Even the gyoza they give you some ponzu sauce to go with it! And the veggie tempura are so juicy on the inside, and of course there’s the tempura sauce too. Oh and the spicy salmon rolls on the side they are huge too, and the salmon is not small bits mixed with tonnes of tempura bits it’s actually chunky salmon pieces with just tiny tempura bits for added texture. All these attention to detail! For this price!

Plus 10% off on cash orders.“

“The best and freshest sushi I’ve had in a long time! Delicious. We ordered a quick take out order for lunch and the HAKO, the seared salmon… wow, it’s amazing. Highly recommend trying this place! The gentleman that took our order was very friendly and kind.“

“Love love love this place. This time I had their Chirashi Sushi, and the Bulgogi dinner. The serving size was perfect if not on the larger size for me. Their food always tastes heavenly and fresh. Can't say enough great things about the sushi, the flavours of their dressings and sauces, and their presentation. Try it for yourself and find out.“

“This was our first time at Takumi and we are pretty happy with this place. We order a platter and tempura appy. The restaurant didn’t look busy but there were a lot orders coming in for delivery or pick up. The platter took longer than we hoped but it is Friday night. We have been noticing that orders coming in take precedent over orders taken from customers dining in.
Overall, the fish was very fresh and the sashimi was cut generously. We enjoyed ourselves and will probably come back.“

“We visited on a snowy night, arriving about an hour before closing, and were pleasantly surprised by how warmly we were still welcomed. Despite the late hour, the team remained attentive and made us feel comfortable and unrushed, which really set the tone for the evening.

The all-you-can-eat sushi and sashimi were generous in both portion and variety, and each dish was beautifully presented. Everything looked fresh delicious and thoughtfully prepared, making the experience feel more elevated than a typical AYCE spot. At $37.99 for adults, it offered excellent value for the quality and selection provided.

The restaurant itself was neat, clean, and well-maintained. The washroom was also very clean, which is always a detail we notice and appreciate. The staff were friendly, polite, and attentive throughout our visit, consistently checking in without being intrusive.

Overall, it was a truly pleasant dining experience. From the warm hospitality to the quality of the food, everything came together perfectly. Definitely a spot we’d be happy to return to again!“

“Such a cute, little spot tucked away in the heart of several beautiful neighbourhoods! The sushi was extremely fresh and the owners were honestly so kind and hospitable. The prices here are definitely on the higher end but honestly, the quality of the sushi, sashimi and even the miso soup made it feel all worth it! Everything tasted clean, fresh and truly made with intention. They even surprised us with matcha ice cream at the end of our lunch, which was so sweet and thoughtful. It was a slow Friday afternoon and it turned out to be genuinely an amazing experience. I left so happy, full and wanting to come back to support them again! Definitely a lovely local sushi hub, thank you for such a warm experience, can’t wait to be back!“

“Perfectly cooked meat and flavourful veggies every time! We drive more than an hour back and forth just for the amazing food. I’ve tried a variety of dishes from the menu and they’re all so tasty. My favourite is the spicy pork on rice , and my picky child loves the Korean meatloaf. Highly recommend!!“

“I will be very fair about my experience. We went there at 8:30pm. There were only 3 table of customers which included us. We ate til 10:30pm. Here is why.

The first order came fairly quick, but the 2nd order took a lot longer. We learnt our lesson so we immediately made 3rd order but still took a long time. That’s why we ate for 2 hours. I actually got hungrier waiting for the 2nd.

I would recommend you make large order on your first, but then again you are running the risk of your food getting cold but trust me, your 2nd order will come a lot later. You will have to push the waitress for it or your 2nd order will take forever to come.
3 table 1 waitress and the kitchen is having a hard time to keep up. If you decided to go and see 3+ table of customers, then you better make large order on your first.

Now serving speed aside, their food is great. But some food item on the menu is out of stock which is a bit disappointing.

I wanted to give 3 star but all you can eat skewer is pretty rare and besides I did ate over 60 skewers myself and wasn’t kicked out.

Here are some of the things, expect certain orders end up not coming.

They have a rule, they’d start charging over 100g worth of food not eaten. So before you make your order, ask the waitress if all orders came. That way you can keep track of your orders. (Some order end up not coming then you can reorder it or skip it)

It’s been 2 hours since I left and no stomach ache so the foods are fine.

It is $29.99 all you can eat starting 8:30pm which is reasonable. I would rate it 3.7 which is fairly close to the average rating.

I would definitely revisit the place some time in the future, since the serving speed, lost order and lack of supply can all be fixed by making huge order on the first one.

But remember don’t waste food even though it is all you can eat, that’s just courtesy and respect for foods.“

“Have been getting takeout regularly for the past year, and the food has always been great. Always fresh and good quality.“

“I really love the sushi here 😊
First of all, the sushi rice—the foundation of good sushi—has an amazing texture.
The food is made with high-quality ingredients, and cleanliness is top-notch.
The owner and all the staff are very kind and friendly as well.
I highly recommend giving this place a try 👍“

“much much better than I expected very fresh and yummy“

“Ren Sushi is my go-to sushi spot in the north of Toronto! Everything is super fresh and beautifully made. Their Winter Tray is such a great deal — generous portions, great variety, and always delicious. The new Winter Tray B deal makes it even better! Staff are friendly and pickup is always quick. Highly recommend! 🍣“

“I loved the fact that when you walk in, there is a natural light element to the place. Have you ever tried sushi with plantain? This is definitely the spot for you to try. It was my favourite pick on the menu.I loved every bit of my stay there.“

“Very good, high quality Sushi and Sashimi. Better than Bento Sushi. We enjoyed the atmosphere.
Here is my tip. We ordered one of the Sushi/Sashimi/Maki trays and had way more food and variety than we could eat. This saved us a lot of money over ordering the all-you-can-eat deal. The presentation was really good.“

“Fresh ,good & delicious shushi“

“Mac's Sushi is always the #1 choice for us when we are craving Sushi. They always have fresh and delicious sushi. Everything is prepared fresh daily. They use only the best ingredients and it is prepared right there in front of you.
We love the food here. I highly recommend the sushi packaged containers because the price is fantastic for the quality of the food you get for the price, $14.99 each.

Best place for sushi, inside the Upper Canada Mall, Newmarket Ontario.

Thank you“
