Back again and better than ever…read more Back again to this excellent restaurant and it seems to have only gotten better. Service was exquisite with japanese fine dining precision and friendliness. This time around we added a sake pairing which was lovely and generous. We learned that Kei Hashimoto himself selects and brings back the sake from his trips to Japan. Location is beautifully appointed with diners each having their own discrete rooms. You don't even get to see the other diners and the environment feels private. The meal was exceptional. Pictures and menu attached. We liked the wagyu course so much we ordered another full round for each of us!

This cozy sushi restaurant has all the typical sushi restaurant staples (sushi rolls, nigiri sushi,…read moresashimi, donburis (rice bowls), udon noodles, and a few Korean dishes such as bibimbap (the owners are Korean). There was no parking right outside of the restaurant (main road), but you could park on the side residential streets or in a large plaza nearby (about 10 minutes walk). The first thing we noticed when we walked in was the plethora of kids' drawings plastered all over the front door, walls, and the interior of the restaurant. Every table had a set of crayons and paper that you could use to draw. It seemed very family and kids-friendly. The interior was small, cozy, and had a very homey vibe. We were seated in a booth which added to the coziness feeling. Food came out relatively quickly, and everything was decent. Unagi Don came with a good amount of unagi and avocado slices, on top of a heap of rice. Kaizen Don was excellent - it came with thick slices of sashimi (salmon, tuna, shrimps, and imitation crab). Every donburi (rice bowl) came with house green salad and miso soup. We chose to add on a few extra green salads. Sushi rolls that we ordered as a group all came on one long wooden board - perfect for sharing. I wish the asparagus in the asparagus roll wasn't battered and deep-fried (tempura style). My favourite sushi roll was the El Dorado Roll (without rice - salmon, tuna, cooked shrimp, imitation crab, cucumber, and avocado wrapped in cucumber which added extra crunch). Service was efficient, nice, and friendly.

I came here as I needed to be close to the hospital, and though my initial intention was to…read moredine-in, the traffic really put me behind schedule so I changed my mind last minute and ordered takeout via their online ordering system instead. This process was super easy and I liked how they notify you on the app that you can get 10% off by choosing to pay at pickup via cash. We ended up ordering their Salmon Lunch and Sushi Lunch which are both quite similar. Salmon Lunch - salmon sashimi 3pcs, salmon nigiri 6pcs and your choice of maki. Served with miso soup and green salad for CA$20.99. Sushi Lunch - chef's selection of 6pcs nigiri sushi and your choice of maki. Served with miso soup and green salad for CA$16.99. Portions were average, nothing outstanding to rave about - if anything, some might say the portions of fish are smaller than what you typically see in North American sushi. The quality was good and the food tasted fresh. Presentation was also nice. The one disappointing thing was when we found a piece of fish bone! The food was all packaged well, using sustainable packaging.

After looking over all the options, I chose salmon sashimi, octopus sashimi, and bbq eel sushi. Quality was pretty good, cuts were thick, and the value was insane! Place is takeout. People are super friendly. Prices are amazing based on the quantity you get. Definitely recommend this place if you want to pick and choose good sushi without breaking the bank.

A few weeks ago, we noticed this spot in our neighbourhood and thought it was new (it wasn't) but…read morewe were intrigued by the "build your own platter" option! Other platters are often "you get what you get" but the idea that we wouldn't be stuck with surf clam or cucumber rolls was very enticing to us. Mother's Day was a great reason to order sushi and maaaaan were we not disappointed! Ordering online seemed like they were rammed with orders since it requested a later pick up time. When my husband showed up, he noted that it was a two person show... and they clearly were making sure they didn't overwhelm themselves with orders. It goes to show they care about their food/quality and we were so grateful! The rice was cooked well and the ratio of rice to fish/yums was great! Our only complaint was that we wish the order form would tell us how many pieces were in each "order" but other than that we were very pleased with the quality of the sushi and the freshness of the fish. We finally have a go-to sushi spot nearby that we won't hesitate to order from again (and again and again!)

Hit all my sushi cravings in one go!…read more I had pre-ordered for pick-up at 4:15pm and when I arrived at around 4:20pm, the order was ready. This was already a good start. Upon opening the the bag when we got home, we noticed they had also included a free slice of cheesecake! =) We ordered the medium sashimi platter, along with a caterpillar roll and tiger roll. Everything seemed fresh and solved all my sushi and sashimi cravings for a while. One thing we noticed off the bat was the thickness of the sashimi pieces. A lot of places skimp out on sashimi but the pieces we got were definitely on the thicker side (koodos to Yanagi). Would recommend this place to anyone who is around the area and wants their sushi and sashimi fix!

There were three large pork chops that were crispy and fresh, and came with some rice, cabbage and soup. The pork was cooked well though I found the breading to be a bit thick in some spots.

They do not have torched pressed sushi, unfortunately. The mixed veggies was almost all bell peppers, with some onions, mushrooms, and zucchini added in. If I had known, I wouldn't have gotten it, as no one in my family likes bell peppers. The beef skewer seemed to be breaded and then sauced, it was kind of mid. The noodle, rice, kalbi, and sushi were great.

But, otherwise, it's a nice place for getting some sushi. - We come here often with my son when we are in the area. A meal for two is not much more expensive than McDonald's, but much healthier. The waiters are polite and nice. The atmosphere is modest, yet spacious and cozy.

Came here on a Friday evening around 8pm and this place was really busy. Luckily, I had a…read morereservation and was seated right away. I opted for their summerlicious menu which was $55 and included a starter, main and dessert. Their menu choices were very appealing for m price. The starters and the mains were both good. It's not super premium quality but for the price, I'd say it hit the spot of a mid tier sushi spot. The cod was flaky and the scallops were cooked well. I overall enjoyed everything up until the dessert. The desserts were the weakest link of the entire dinner. The cheesecake was a little dry and the mochi didn't seem super fresh. It was all edible but just not amazing. The service was good, staff were attentive and food came out fairly quick. The design of the place is really nice as well. Not a first option I'd jump for but not a bad spot.

We were in Toronto for the first time with one of our pups and noticed they had a dog menu. We were…read moresold right on that because it's very cute. We made a reservation at the site's recommendation and we're seated outside because another pup was already around. This gave more room for our pup to be himself with us. We ordered the seltzer they have there and I think it's on tap and we're provided water for both us and our dog. They let us know he could eat the steak raw but we did cook it on the grill plate only because he has 700 allergies and we didn't want the hassle. He gobbled up his tray without issue. We both ordered chicken and I ordered the sambal one I think. The only issue I had was that mine was a lot more heat than flavor. Maybe a bit more fish sauce would have provided the salty goodness I was looking for. My spouse liked his as he didn't go for heat lol. I loved the cauliflower bites because they were tangy and crispy. Our server was super great to talk to and loved our dog. I appreciated how often they checked on us. We will definitely be back.
