My sister was visiting and we took her here for dinner today! Matthew was our chef and he was great! He told us his favourite was striped jack and that was one our our favourites too! The other was toro bluefin tuna belly. This was my second time here and the menu changed a bit too which is great and refreshing.

We went here as part of my partner's birthday celebration. We were delighted to see Jon (our Chef when we visited MSSM Ossington) assisting in this location. We had a great dining experience here, having H as our Chef and Honoka (one of the best Front of the House Managers around) giving us a great chat and a warm goodbye as we were the last customers that night. We went home full and happy.

Parking: There's paid street parking but is usualy very busy no matter what time of day it is, but there is a paid parking garage right beside it.

WOW!! What an exquisite experience - thank you so much Chef Ken and staff for an incredible way to kick off my 30th birthday! My foodie friends highly recommended this place after trying omakases from all price points, and said this was the best value and experience. You have a private dining experience, 1 chef to 4 people along the sushi bar counter that runs throughout the restaurant. The chef meticulously prepares each piece of sushi, showcasing his craftsmanship, and passion. He explained the true beauty of omakase - the defining quality of sushi is actually in the quality, temperature, and flavour of the rice - here, it is severed warm, to be consumed within 3s of its creation. The supporting staff always came by with fresh, hot rice to ensure premium sushi quality throughout the night. The rice was perfectly flavoured to be more savoury than the usual sushi available. The fish was impeccable quality - so soft, fatty, melt in our mouth deliciousness. We loved the double serving of toro (best cut of tuna), as a hand roll (tuna was minced and mixed with radish, amazing pairing) to start, and as sushi towards the end. We loved the flavour bursts with the addition of yuzu and green onion tiny minced flavour bombs that were added to the sushi. It was a feast for our eyes and taste buds! Can’t wait to be back to indulge in this experience again! Tip: they ran out of ume sparkling juice and uni, so maybe book lunch if you’d like to try that! The Ume wine on ice, and an extra helping of toro (which chef Ken touched with the blow gun) were incredible alternatives that we opted for instead!

Decided to come here for my fiancé’s birthday, as per his request, and it did not disappoint. This was our first time trying omakase and, as someone who only recently started enjoying sashimi this year, all of the food was 10/10. Everything tasted so fresh! Chef Jo was amazing and made the experience so fun for the both of us. They even gifted my fiancé a candle for his birthday. Would definitely come back again!

Tried the Omakase here solo and it was great, the sushi tasted fresh and the service was amazing. My end of the table was served by Chef H (I think), and he was very friendly and explained the meal every step of the way. My favourite was the scallop sushi.

The servers are super friendly and attentive, they were moving around all through the dinner service and I commend them. Amazing dinner experience so far.

Great entry point omakase - very good value for the price! We had Phil and had a great time chatting and joking around as he prepared each course. Yuri, our service staff, was also super attentive and friendly! Would return :)

Since this is one of the cheapest omakase, the food quality makes sense. It’s not that great or makes you go “wow” comparing to other omakase experiences I’ve been to. Freshness is so so.

Staff and service is very nice.
I guess it’s a good place to try omakase for the first time. There are other better options for sure.
