Came here for my birthday yesterday and it was such a special meal! The attention to detail was amazing and all the staff were attentive, chef evn asked us if we wanted less or more rice and checked in with us multiple times on how we’re doing. I’ve never felt this full after an omakase, I’ve lost count of the number of courses. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed the appetizer kaiseki the most!! Everything was delicious, it is definitely on the more pricey end but I would say it’s worth visiting at least once!

I chose this restaurant for an omakase dinner to celebrate my birthday, and unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing.
Throughout the evening, the server interrupted our table repeatedly (at least five times)while we were in the middle of conversations. It made it difficult to relax and enjoy the moment. The pacing of the dinner also felt rushed, as if we were racing against the clock rather than savoring each course. Omakase should feel thoughtful and immersive, but this experience felt hurried.
In sushi, rice plays a crucial role. From the very first piece served, the rice was noticeably too wet and mushy, almost like food court sushi. There was very little seasoning in the rice, which made the balance feel off. As for the fish, nothing stood out as memorable in terms of quality or flavor, which was surprising for an omakase experience.
Since it was my birthday, the restaurant kindly prepared a “Happy Birthday” plate, which I appreciated. However, only one server said “happy birthday” out loud, and it created an awkward moment where the entire room went silent for a few seconds. It felt uncomfortable rather than celebratory. Honestly, I would have preferred no announcement at all.
Overall, while I appreciate the gesture for my birthday, the service pacing and food quality did not meet expectations for an omakase experience.

The food was so delicious and the service was amazing. You can tell the chefs really take pride in their work - each piece of sushi was meticulously put together. Wait staff were very attentive. I definitely recommend this joint to anyone willing to spend the money for a great meal.

It was terrible. Fish was fishy and not from Japan. I got end parts of fish often and taste no good for the price. I didn’t like the service as well. Never want to come back. DON’T GO!!

If you're looking to have an intimate authentic experience this is it. Although my husband and I were the youngest couple by 10 years or so we were made to feel welcome. I appreciated the traditional service style and the food and beer were incredible.

I don't want to leave a review, but for anyone expecting a real omakase experience. They worked hard, but I wouldn't say they were authentic. As a Japanese person, I was expecting an authentic omakase experience in Toronto, but unfortunately it didn't meet that expectation. The quality of the rice, the way the sushi was formed, and the fish-cutting techniques were all below standard, as was the quality of the fish itself. The miso soup lacked flavor, and honestly, the tamago (rolled egg) was the best part at the end of the course. I've experienced thousands of omakase meals in Japan, and this simply wasn't omakase quality by any measure. We were charged $800, including one bottle of sake, which felt unreasonable. While the quantity of food was generous, the quality did not justify the price, I'm sorry to say. Additionally, only a few types of sake were available by the glass, and most could only be ordered by the bottle, which made it both expensive and disappointing. I want to note that everyone, including the chef and servers, was very kind. Thank you for having us.
Out of all the Omakase's Ive been to, this one is probably my favorite. Started coming here back in 2014 when they first opened. They are one of the few places that serve my favorite fish: Anago. Love the experience and the authenticity.

To celebrate my wife's birthday, I searched for a unique and high-quality Omekase restaurant on Google Maps. I never expected to find such a delightful Japanese meal in Toronto. The ingredients and the chef were top-notch! Our family had a very delicious and satisfying evening.

Amazing experience. The chef was fun to watch and described everything. Sake pairing was perfect. The only thing I'd mark as negative was that the broth course was too hot. Otherwise it was a fantastic meal.
