The pressed sushi was was really amazing. We have the salmon, scallop, and beef pressed sushi. The fish of the sexy salmon roll was so buttery it melts in your mouth.

We came in to support this restaurant as we heard it was closing. Food was good. My entree was completely forgotten and I waited a full 35 minutes after my husband received his ramen before getting my pancake. I called to the waitress after 20 minutes. She said it would be 5 minutes. It was not. No apology. No update . No offer to take some cost off the bill or at least offer a complimentary appe as I watched my husband eat. He stopped twice to wait for me- no food came. We are ardent local foodies and support as best we can. We cannot recommend this place- but don't have to as it is closing anyway.

The cleanness and environment is good. Food prices are little higher but quality is above the average. Aburi and Oshizushi sushi is highly recommended, better than Miku, from my experience.

The food was fantastic and the food came really quick. The only thing is that I did not see one smile or anyone looking like they wanted to be there.

Great food and ambiance for Izakaya and we love how it is very family friendly. Their menu and prices have increased due to inflation but food is still delicious. Doomo arigatou

Everything was fantastic. My one complaint is the women’s bathroom was dirty and it was obvious that they were never really clean as the corners and such we’re REALLY dirty.

We had reservations for 8:15pm and were seated right away. There was much to choose from the menu. It really was a book! We ordered a variety of sashimi, chef’s choice of aburi nigiri sushi, seafood okonomiyaki (w/ lots of seafood and filling). Our kids loved the tempura Udon. Fast and quality service! Would definitely recommend this place for Japanese food! Thank you!

Always fun to eat there. The Sukiyai took way too long to be served. Almost 50 minutes wait time. But all very good otherwise

My new favourite sushi place, hands down! Came across it by chance, looking for something between my place and the airport. I’m vegan, lots of options and I like the setting. Generous servings, comfortable seating and lovely service

Food and server was good. All the sushi and rolls were great! The Yaki Soba took too long and at the end, not as good as the rest of the food. But we will go back!

Food is okay but nothing exceptional. My experience was ruined by the filthy bathrooms and even the restaurant floor is dirty. My shoes actually stuck to the bathroom floor, there’s waste paper on the floor and baseboards, sinks etc were in bad need of cleaning. It’s really offputting. The lighting in restaurant is very low so makes one wonder if other areas were just as dirty.

Made it to Canada for our 30th anniversary. This was the third dinner in as many nights and we wanted to take it down a notch and relax with a good dinner. The decor was nice. The restaurant was pretty quiet which was nice. We made reservations and our table (a booth), was ready and waiting for us when we arrived. The menu is large so we really wanted to try something different. The lobster roll is a must! One of the best sushi rolls we have ever had. Definitely top 3 on the list. We ordered a few more dishes that we were familiar with and they were also delicious. I'd probably give a 5 to the staff but one young lady might have been new because she wasn't mean but she wasn't friendly either. Kind of matter of fact and moved on. She also forgot to bring my ginger ale I ordered but that was brought by another waiter after I asked for it again. No biggie overall since the rest of the staff was friendly and attentive. So, would be go back? Most definitely! It was a good dinner after a long day of exploring Victoria Island. Would we recommend it? Yes. We made reservations but really didn't need to since it was a Sunday, but I can see other evenings being packed with people so you might want to make reservations just a precaution.

Ordered nice bottle of sale (after 2 mojitos) that got served @ room temperature. Bottle not replaced and server/manager did not appreciate and/or fix the error. Best part of the meal was the edamame unfortunately. Would not recommend to anyone looking for good quality sushi/sake experience.

First time here. Wasn't too impressed with the food for the prices. The server was also not the friendliest. I notified them about the dirty serving plates and they took them without apologizing or acknowledging anything. I see them going to the corner and wiping them with a towel and brought the same plates back. The dishes had a strong bleach smell after. The sushi rolls were pretty standard and didn't stand out. I'm a sucker for photos and from what their instagram looked like, the rolls didn't look remotely the same. Maybe it was a one time bad experience but it doesn't make me want to come back. Try getting the servers to smile a bit more.

The menu is huge and the food was generally very good. Except for the prawn gyozas ... the wrapping was too thick and chewy. The servers were very friendly and attentive. We had asked for a few dishes to come first as appetizers but much of everything came at once. So, we felt a bit rushed. Other than this, we will go back and recommend it to friends.

As I was pregnant I was not able to order sushi, my husband’s sushi was great and the portion was appropriate, I ordered noodles with sea food and I think it was bland.
