The interior has a very nice, dark ambiance; perfect for conversation or a night out. The drinks and food taste amazing, and the variety of options is plentiful.

Every detail from the presentation of the dishes to the warm and attentive service, made the experience unforgettable. The balance of flavors and creativity in both the food and drinks is unmatched. I can’t wait to return and explore more of what this remarkable restaurant has to offer. Truly a gem!

Wheelchair accessibility: It is a smaller space, so I would describe it as limited despite it being on ground level. It may be best to call beforehand and ask about their ability to accommodate!“

“Just ordered from here for the first time. Best sushi I have ever had! Very fresh, and tasted so so good! Found my new sushi place! Thank you!“

“Run! Don’t walk to this place!! We ordered a Med Party tray, Hamashi Sashimi, seaweed salad, Nigiri Tobiko. The pictures speak for themselves, super fresh, large cuts, bursting with flavour! We’ve also previously ordered Poke bowls both Tuna and Salmon and were blown away how fresh, flavourful and filling the portions are. What a fabulous addition to the St Catharine’s/Lincoln food scene!! Oh, and the folks running the show are kind, appreciative, highly skilled and professional. I’ve finally found my local Sushi fix after 4 years of searching 🙏“

“We had an excellent experience at Wind tonight- there was an unfortunate event of a medical emergency, in which the staff reacted with the upmost compassion and professionalism. The guest quietly insisted on covering the drinks for the people around them (which was so so so kind & unnecessary- but thank you ❤️ just glad you are okay), and Wind covered an additional round if we were interested, which was totally above and beyond for a circumstance outside of anyone’s control. My deepest gratitude & well wishes go towards the guest who had a tough night- that was so kind & generous of you, I hope you’re doing well ❤️ and to the staff who maintained a positive energy & professional manner, job well done, everything was handled so courteously & thoughtfully.“

“My daughter and I frequent this establishment and we have never been disappointed. The service is speedy and courteous. The food is very good in taste and quality. It’s very reasonably priced and the restaurant is clean and has a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys sushi, or would like to try it.“

“I had salmon sushi, eel sushi, and rolls at Bear Sushi, and the ingredients were fresh and delicious!! The store was clean and the staff were very friendly. Overall, it was a satisfactory meal, and I would definitely come back if I visit here again~“

“Wide variety of food , waitress requested a few special requests as well for us :) Definitely will return Loved the decor as well“

“Honestly the best restaurant to eat at in the Fairview Mall. The staff are great. Always so friendly. And the coolest part is watching them cook the food on front of you. It’s so delicious. I always get extra teriyaki sauce! Paid $15 for their rice with veggies, shrimp, chicken, and beef. And I also got a large bottle of coke to drink. 100% recommend the Iron Chef. :)“

“Thank you VERY much!! Amazing fresh delicious food. We ordered for our daughter's University grad. Huge portions for the party platters. Highly recommend!!! The staff went above and beyond for us“

“The food was wonderful, very authentic and delicious. Will come back if I’m ever in the area again. Staff is very friendly and made the vibe welcoming. When I arrived the place look closed and was a little confused if we were in the right place. The place could use a little pick me up, but other than that everything was great!“
