The omakase set is such a good price here! Only $88 for 10 nigiri, futomaki, hisomaki, ice cream and ikuri Don! The service is great and the setting is intimate and cozy. I would highly recommend for read more

This was the fastest sushi I've ever had--all the dishes were served in just one hour (half of which was spent waiting for the food). Everything, including the mushroom rice, was brought out all at once. Unfortunately, the taste wasn't outstanding, and the ingredients felt rather ordinary. Surprisingly, the dessert was the highlight and the best part of the whole meal. read more

Jumi Gozen Bar - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Rating: 3.5/5 rounding up the stars. This place seats about 8-10 people for Omakase located at the condos across Fairview Mall. It's a very quiet place with one sushi chef and one server. The service was mediocre, I think it would be nice if she interacted with us a little more and replenishing water more promptly. Also the towel to wipe our fingers came late after around the 3rd nigiri. I give the food about a 3.5/5 only because the sushi rice was a bit too mushy. The fish were good, not too much garnish compared to other places. The seaweed was very nice and crisp for the maki and hand roll. The wagyu with foie gras was okay, they used Australian wagyu. It didn't melt in my mouth as what I expect from wagyu beef. Perhaps it was the beef part I got. The futomaki and husomaki was actually really good along with the trout nigiri. I was full after this but I rather go to a different omakase for next time. I've been to many omakase restaurants and this place got me full up which is a plus. I would come here again if my friends wanted to go. read more

Jumi has been open for a long time, but I don't have a chance to try until today. They have the summer special $68 for lunch and $88 for dinner. It includes 10 sushi, hosomaki and negi-toro handroll. Over quality is acceptable and price is definitely great. It's definitely worth a try if you are in the area. read more

Had a wonderful and affordable omakase experience here! We tried their Summer Omakase special for $88, and it was well worth the value. The nigiri was fresh and tasty! Service was attentive and polite, and the ambiance feels cool & cozy at the same time. read more

I came here today for an anniversary dinner, and it was one of the most memorable experiences ever. Of course, for an omakase, it is on the more expensive side. However, for the quality of food, the ambiance, and the service of a skillful chef, it makes the price point worth every penny! Every dish was served with great care, and having the chef explain to each dish makes it an engaging experience. My favorite has to be the bluefin tuna. As someone who doesn't always go for the tuna, this fish cut has made me gain a whole new appreciation for tuna! I highly recommend this place for any special events. The space is small, and you need to make reservations ahead of time, but this is something everyone should experience at least once. read more

Came To try their omakase dinner I really like the ambience of the is restaurant. It's a small intimate restaurant with sitting at a bar and it looks like they limit seating for a max of 8-10 for dinner and it's reservation only. The omakase had a nice mix of sashimi, cooked dishes, special broth, nigiri. We added the bluefin tuna flight. Loved the Match fizz cocktail. They also had another menu for a la carte items which they only show you after you order the omakase. The set dinner is enough for one person so we didn't need to order additional. Dessert was nice and refreshing. Would come back again for seasonal omakase and try their take out as well. read more

We came here for my hubby's birthday. This is a restaurant for adults only (kids are welcomed for private parties). This restaurant is similar to omakase (they make the food directly in front of you), the difference is they serve you the food all at the same time. We also added the extra set (3 pieces of Blue Fin Tuna). The service was very good. They were friendly and attentive. The waiting area is in the condo lobby. You can park in the condo parking garage with the letter "V". Overall, the food is decent. It's a nice experience and we like the vibe (music is playing in the background all night). read more

Came here for a friend's bday celebration. Right off the bat, I really loved the atmosphere. Small intimate trendy place - what a hidden surprise to find this place in a residential condo neighborhood; it adds more to the secretiveness/romanticness of the place. Felt like i was in some high end resto in uptown new york even though I've never been haha. This resto is by reservation only and intimate group-oriented - the square room has high L-shape bar table that pretty much fit our party of 10 and we face the sushi chefs and host as they prepare our courses right in front of us. I loved this arrangement and seeing all the chefs prepare the food and the accessibility to ask them questions. The service is impeccable - very attentive, intimate, friendly, gentle. They explained all of our dishes as they served to us and u can tell they take great pride in their food and presentation. The food presentation is so beautiful, and an experience in itself. Having so many exquisite dishes served in one platter is exciting and stimulates ur culinary senses. We had the winter 2022 Jumi Signature menu (10 items including sashimi, nigiri, octopus, king crab, wagyu, dessert - $138) + the add-on Bluefin Tuna Nigiri Flight ($18) . All the dishes were interesting and good, there were some excellent melt-in-ur-mouth sashimi. Many items I had to ask the chef again what it was, or I kept referring back to the menu to try to figure out which item it is - such are the delicately crafted concoctions. The drink menu was also exquisite, but of course tagged with high price - i had the iwai tradition whisky ($18 10oz) , as well as a citrus sake ($15) - both really excellent and complemented well the food. Overall between my bf and I and the drinks we ordered , the bill was quite steep - around $480 including tip and tax . Although we did order 4 drinks which increases the tab a lot, unfortunately I do still feel the price was still a bit too high for the food we had - yes, the food was great, but for that price I would expect/like more an out-of-this-world amazingness for the full course. My bf had the same thought. But I do think it's a nice place to go with a special group of people for a very special occasion- cuz the intimate experience and ambiance is still exciting. The 4 stars are mostly for ambiance, service, experience, decor, food uniqueness and delicacy, but I didn't give it a perfect 5 because for the steep price Id like more wowowow factor with all of the food. read more

The whole community has really grown over the last five years. This restaurant is located at the ground level of a condo building. The door is usually locked, but they would open it for you upon your arrival. They have about ten seats at the sushi bar. They served only dine in omakase at dinner, but also offer take out options as well. read more

During the lock down and take out era, I fell in love with Jumi Gozen Bar's Mosaic chirashi. A piece of art work that was so delicious. When I heard they are opening for dine in and serving gozen-style meal. I was so excited to try! The ambiance was a nice and cozy venue. I thought I wouldn't be full with this experience but boy, was I wrong! We started from the soup and enjoyed the journey anti clockwise. The red miso soup had a scallop that was cooked to perfection. The cherry blossom tofu was almost too beautiful to eat with a hint of salt and an edible flower. Then the four pieces of seasonal sashimi was so fresh. I've always wanted to try the firefly squid, and it was indeed delicious with flavours inside and the homemade sauce. In terms of the braised bamboo with uni. I love it how they used Hokkaido uni. So sweet and fresh. The Spanish mackerel was delicious along with the garlic foam. So many layers of flavours on the pallet. Then the lightly seared waygu beef. After the waygu beef there was a brief intermission with a series of super fresh and delicious nigiri. The Hokkaido nigiri was so sweet, fresh and tasty! The torched cod nigiri and the list goes on, you will have to experience this yourself! This menu changes every three months and alcohol beverages will be coming soon! Definitely a unique dining experience and excellent place to meet with friends and enjoy this culinary experience together! I will be back! read more

Got another high quality sushi restaurant in North York! I recently discovered Jumi while shopping at Fairview Mall. Currently the restaurant is in soft opening with takeout only, but I heard that once they officially grand opens they will have a really unique Omakase experience. We tried a few of their signature boxes, such as the Mosaic Chirashi, Premium Nigiri Set, and Aburi sushi. The Mosaic Chirashi is the most unique in terms of the presentation and I'm a big fan of the fatty Otoro on top. The rest of the sushi were really good as well and the fish they use are very fresh and high quality They have a special promo for February right now: get a free order of Salmon Aburi for orders $120+. Must order on their website and you have to manually add the Salmon Aburi to the order (it will charge as $0) read more

This Gozen bar recently opened for dine in and it was my first time having a "Gozen" style meal. The interior has a L shaped bar with minimal seating. Reservations are required as they only have 2 seatings each night. Service was professional and polite. They explained each dish and was told to eat anticlockwise starting with the red miso soup, then cold dish, leading up to the main dish. Each dish was presented SO beautifully! My friend and I each got the Jumi Signature ($98) which came with: -6 pc chef choice nigiri -4 pc seasonal sashimi -Spanish mackerel confit -firefly squid sumiso -wagyu beef marinated in red wine -cherry blossom tofu -bamboo shoot with uni -red miso soup And we shared "Land" Wagyu Beef Shabu Shabu ($35) There were also other add ons that you could get such as "Ocean" Fish Shabu Shabu ($22) or upgrade to premium nigiri ($30) which they serve omakase style. My favourite of the night was definitely the Wagyu Beef marinated in red wine and the Firefly Squid Sumiso. Ohh and the garlic foam from the Spanish Mackerel was pretty good too! The 6 pc Chef Choice Nigiri came last in the meal but it was so fresh, as were the sashimi. Overall I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the meal was delicious. I also enjoyed watching them make the food in front of me because it was a show of itself, however one star was taken off because I didn't find it filling. read more

I was craving for sushi one weekend but wanted to try something new. Therefore, I searched on Yelp and found this sushi restaurant near Fairview mall. Let talk about the interior and the level of services first this time. The interior of this restaurant is very modern and basically black. The level of services offer by this Gozen Bar is much higher than I expected for this price range. The waitress and chef will greet you as you enter the restaurant. They will show you the bottle of sake your ordered, even for only one glass. This restaurant uses expensive Schott Zwiesel Tritan crystal wine glass. The waitress / bartender will hand clean ever single wine glass with microfabric cloth. The chef will do their best to plating the Gozen tray as precise to a centimeter. The waitress will hand back your jacket to you by holding it with both hands. All of this shows this restaurant really valued their customers and went to provide them the best services possible. I order the 9 pc premium nigiri Gozen set lunch and it did not disappoint. The presentation of the nigiri sushi is excellent and the sushi chef skill is decent. The nigiri sushi is pressed just right, no to hard or soft. The sushi rice tasted normal (not unique) but this can be a good thing. The sushi fish is very flavourful. I believe some of their fish may have used the Kombujime classic fish aging technique. Since I am not full yet, I ordered the Toro and Wagyu Oshi afterwards. This turn out to be a huge mistake. Maybe every person definition of Toro and Wagyu are different, as their Toro and Wagyu Oshi does not taste like Toro and Wagyu to me at least. The Oshi sushi was pressed too hard and break the texture of the rice, which made the sushi rice feel very soggy. Plus, they put too much rice in their Oshi sushi. Overall, if you want to experience higher end sushi restaurant services for a reasonable price, then this place is for you. I will recommend to visit this place during lunch hours (booking with credit card deposit is mandatory), as they are less busy. Also, parking can be a bit difficult. read more

Came here last night to celebrate mothers day! Service was great! We were quickly seated as we had made prior reservations for over 2 weeks in advance. Our chef Evan introduced himself and started preparing the dishes. He proceeded to explain each and every dish and fish. Let me say, I loved each and every piece of sushi... sashimi and fish. It was very tasty and both my parents were extremely impressed not only with the presentation but also the level of service they go above and beyond. We had their signature set $98 per person and added on additional nigiri for $30 per person. For $128, I was definitely full, however my boyfriend was just ok. Which isn't uncommon for an omakase experience. However he didn't need to eat anything else afterwards so thats good! Most of us (group of 5) were full and the server had asked if we wanted dessert, which we politely declined. However our chef Evan was nice enough to offer my mom a complimentary dessert on the house for Mother's Day which I thought was super sweet! Definitely give it a try, worth it! read more

Like all of you, i get attracted by beautiful pics i see on Instagram and need to get in on the latest new restaurants! Thats what brought me here, little did i know dine in was a Gozen Omakase! This means instead of the courses coming one at a time, theyre all served at the same time and then ur sushi course comes after. Was very intrigued by this idea! However, i barely enjoyed it. For the price point, i was being served starch? Roots? i upgraded to premium sushi for and additional +$60 i believe and this took me to $150 price point. Now the sushi quality was really good and delicious. This part i did enjoy. But it was just 5 pieces. So if ure a sushi lover like me, id say pick another spot. read more

I've had my fair share of omakases and I always have a great deal of respect for sushi chefs and their culinary art. When certain fish are not in season, chefs are tasked with using their creativity, skill, and intuition to substitute a different item of equal value for the customer. That's why I can justify the high cost of most omakases. But to my surprise, Jumi's chefs really dropped the ball on my order a few weeks ago. I ordered takeout of their $65 17pc Signature Nigiri (Toro) set as well as their $48 16pcs Deluxe Nigiri and after opening my boxes, I felt completely scammed. As you can see from the photos I attached, their online menu shows a beautiful composition of nigiri for the "signature set" - 3 pieces of quality bluefin tuna (akami, chutoro, otoro), raw wagyu, botan ebi, uni, and ikura. What I got instead? Salmon.. some random washed out pink-fleshed fish.. a tiny ebi.. mediocre looking tuna.. and cooked beef. Comparing the $65 omakase with the $48 omakase side-by-side, I noticed the nigiri in both were essentially IDENTICAL except for the one additional piece of cooked beef.... I immediately called in to the restaurant and asked why there was such a huge discrepancy between their advertised photo and what they gave. The waitress put me on hold and then came back to inform me that the chef responded that it was "chef's choice", that they didn't have the missing pieces "in season", and that he had "appropriately substituted" my pieces with other fish of equal value. What? They didn't "have" ikura to make sushi, but they were able to put ikura garnish on top of the salmon?? Are you serious? This was ultimately the tipping point for me. Unprofessional and downright spewing lies. Using the tactic of serving cheaper pieces of fish at a premium price on the premise of it being "chef's choice" is unacceptable for any restaurant, let alone one that touts itself as "high-end". I clapped back and asked the waitress if she genuinely thought salmon was the same value as uni and she quickly put me on hold again. At the end, the chef apologized and offered for me to go back to get a refund of the difference between the two sets ($17) since my argument was that they were essentially identical. When I arrived, he also offered an order of beef oshisushi. All in all, the sushi was actually decent. Nothing to write home about but definitely decent. Though I appreciated the chef's sincere apology in the end, I have to admit it was already too late. I was extremely irked by their lack of transparency and honesty. If I hadn't spoken up, they would likely continue to do this to all takeout customers and I don't believe in that type of a business model. Hopefully this review either prompts them to inform customers that certain fish are not available (which, by the way they already DO call you to confirm your order), or helps to informs future customers that you don't get what you see. read more

According to the restaurant, Gozen is a traditional Japanese meal set that consists of a main dish, rice, soup, tsukudani (pickles), and multiple side dishes, all beautifully served together on a single tray. My favorite dishes from the meal were the geoduck and penshell carpaccio, as well as the Black tiger shrimp frit with tosazu sauce served at the end. The carpaccio had a wonderful texture and flavor that was perfectly complemented by the accompanying sauce. Additionally, the crispy texture of the fritters provided a satisfying contrast to the tangy, slightly sweet tosazu sauce, creating a delightful flavor combination that lingered on my palate long after the meal was over. We visited the restaurant for their 1 year Anniversary menu. Having been to quite a few high-end Japanese restaurants, I had high expectations for them. Our host told us that he was a bartender before and mixed us a non-alcoholic lemon and ginger mocktail. I must say, it was quite the experience. The drink was refreshing and had a perfect balance of sweet and sour flavors. Additionally, the blend of lemon and ginger was not only delicious but also provided a variety of health benefits. We started with the geoduck and penshell carpaccio, which was a great dish. Next, we tried the shrimp head miso soup, which was also an amazing new experience for us. The soup was simple yet flavorful. Afterwards, we enjoyed 2 pieces of sashimi and 6 pieces of nigiri. Although the meal was great, I felt like 10 pieces of nigiri would have made it perfect. After that, we had the battle of the Wagyu (A5 Japanese Wagyu vs Australian Wagyu), and in my opinion, the A5 was better. Next, we had Aji Chazuke, which is a rice soup dish with mackerel sashimi. However, I wasn't too impressed with this dish. Lastly, to conclude our meal, we were served the infamous toro uni handroll. This delicacy consisted of the highest quality toro, or fatty tuna, combined with creamy uni, wrapped in a sheet of nori seaweed and perfectly seasoned sushi rice. The dish was beautifully presented, with the vibrant orange uni and deep red toro contrasting perfectly with the vivid green of the seaweed. As we took our first bite, the flavors and textures mingled together in a burst of umami goodness, with the buttery richness of the toro and the briny sweetness of the uni complementing each other perfectly. Overall, it was a fun experience that gave us new flavors we haven't tasted before in other omakase spots. However, it could've gone bad if our host wasn't there. He was very well-spoken, described things very well, and took care of us all the way. The only thing that would've made the dinner version better would be to add an eel handroll at the end or to have 10 pieces of nigiri instead of 6. My Favorite : Geoduck and penshell carpaccio, as well as the Black tiger shrimp frit with tosazu sauce Overall Rating: 4 - Food: 4.0/5 (if something isn't 100% fresh, don't serve it) - Service: 4/5 - Value: 2/5 - Ambience & Cleanliness: 5/5 Would I visit this place more than 3 times? 100% stop by for lunch omakase but maybe on dinner. read more

Ambience: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 4/5 Parking: 2/5 Price: $$$ Came here for a anniversary dinner. Upon walking in we were greeted and promptly seated. The ambience had that dark and intimate feeling like you were in a high class restaurant. The food was presented in a gorgeous way. The food itself though was mediocre to be honest. The miso fish was the best from all the items that was presented but it was a single small piece. I've had better sashimi especially the salmon. The mochi potato was nothing special as well the taro ball was cold and alright. I wish there was a palate cleanser. Everything is presented at once and they prep the food in front of you as well. If you wanted more food, they pass around their takeout menu a la carte of different items available. Parking is available on the street if you can find a spot. For the price, you're paying for the experience rather than the food. If you like fine dining, this is the place. If you want good food...I would look elsewhere. Especially for the price. read more

Jumi Gozen Bar - Your set meal - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We arrived 15 mins early but were not allowed to go in. The server asked us to walk around. Ya it's sunny but it's soooo windy outside. It's gozen menu, so it's a meal for emperor. However, the hot tea we have is a tea bag with a small cup of hot water no style at all. Even the chef saw me hanging up the tea bag, he did not asked the server to give me a little plate for the tea bag. We can see how the chefs prepared the dishes. The chef who prepared uni, tried to scrape the tiny remaining uni along side of the box. We waited for 20 mins for the tray to be ready and another 20 mins to finish the tray. It's not special at all. Wonder why we have to watch them prepare the tray in 20 mins. Guess they shall shorten it to 10 mins instead. The food is so so only. We upgraded our nigiri pieces. That's better. $98 for the tray plus $30 nigiri upgrade, don't think it's worth it. It would be great If they can provide the wet napkin throughout the course. I used my hands to take the nigiri. I had to create my own wet napkin. The chef saw this. He could let the server know.... Service has a lot of room to improve read more

False Advertising. 17pc Signature Nigiri (Toro). Believing I had discovered a new place to have high quality sushi for a fair price without going downtown, I gave this restaurant a try with a take-out order. After reviewing their online menu, I was captivated by how delicious the 17pc Signature Nigiri (Toro) Set looked and decided to order that. Opening the box, I was shocked to see which pieces were conveniently substituted with fish I can get at an all-you-can-eat. Where was the uni? The ikura? Even the botan ebi looked like it was halved. I immediately called the restaurant to inquire (something I've never done before) and got every excuse you could think of. They dared to say "this is omakase and the chef substituted with items of equal value". In what world does Uni equate to Salmon. Never before have I seen an omakase try to pull this. Their next excuse was that they didn't have those items in stock. I believed them in the moment, but afterwards I realized they garnished the salmon nigiri with ikura. So what happened to ikura sushi? Did they only have enough for that one final garnish? The taste wasn't bad, compared to non-premium sushi joints. Compared to other restaurants at this price level? Not nearly as fresh. Just know you won't be getting what's in the pictures. Finding a place to park was also inconvenient as the complex has no parking lot and street parking is extremely limited. read more

came here to try their attractive $58 lunch omakase and it was decent! although the fish is from JP, the rice and flavours were still there. the portion is comparable to a full omakase length (about 11 nigiri plus maki) i actually enjoyed having fish from different areas in the world since everywhere is always boasting fresh flown from JP, but this showcases that fish from elsewhere can be just as fresh and tasty as well if made well! the restaurant was quite empty around noon when we arrived but slowly picked up around 1. booking was easy online and lots of seats available for a sunday lunch :) read more

A decent experience even if it's rough around the edges. Things to improve: the wagyu should be served hot. This is kinda hard with their style of serving. Might need an alternative here. The sake should be served in sake cups??? It was served in wine glasses. Some of the fish was not the best but was good enough. Overall worth trying but some refinement needed to get the full 5 stars. read more

I ordered take out from this restaurant so my rating is based on the take out experience. I ordered the traditional Chirashi and the 17 pcs signature nigiri for $72. The only way to order take out is online. I phone them because I have allergy restriction and they told me I have to order online and leave the allergy note when creating the order online. Abit of a pain to type ... my allergy note for substitute was intended only for Chirashi but they applied them to the signature nigiri also... I think for things like these, should be handled by phone and chat in person so there is no misunderstanding.. anyway , not a big deal, it's just a side note want to mention. The fish are fresh. Wasabi, which is the good kind you would get from restaurant that's serious about sushi! Presentation of the dish is very pretty and good! Except for a minor complaint the outside of the box is not perfectly clean, they are actually abit wet and I have to wipe it first... I hope it's just water. Lol. Again, not a biggie but just want to point this out if they are shooting for perfection Need to mention the only thing that's preventing me in giving the food 5 stars because of two things: the sushi rice is abit too soft (more mushy?) for my liking and the nori used for the roll doesn't has much of the nori taste/aroma. Price wise is not cheap but also not the most expensive either when comparing to restaurants offer similar fish quality such as Zen/Umi/Cho San Sushi in uptown. So I didn't regret to come and try. It's still a good quality sushi place. read more

Made a reservation for Father's Day Dinner with the family to celebrate Father's Day. It was a set summer menu. There were toro and uni hand rolls that you could order extra and we ordered 2 of each. The restaurant was set up with seats along the bar for a total of 12 guests at a time. The set up was really cozy and yet comfortable. The presentation of the dishes was amazing and so creative. Everything was really tasty as well. The air fryer mini crab was the best-perfectly crisp and very flavourful. The Australian beef wagyu sukiyaki could be upgraded to Japanese wagyu for additional price and of the 4 orders, we upgraded one to try. The Japanese wagyu was definitely much more tender than the Australian wagyu. The beef sukiyaki was really interesting. We were instructed to take the beef, vegetables and noodles out from the sukiyaki pot and dip it into the soft boiled egg as the broth was really rich and it worked really well. Otherwise it would have been too salty. We also hand the toro and uni hand roll. There was a perilla leaf that was included and that added another layer of flavour that worked really well. The toro and uni was very fresh. We ordered one melon roll for dessert to try. It was very light and airy and just perfect sweetness. Overall it was a great experience. Will have to come back for the next change of menu. read more

Wonderful little hidden gem at the base of an apartment building near Fairview mall. Very small restaurant with about 10 bar seats only. Menu is also very specialized with only 3 choices at lunch and 1 set dinner menu. I've tried all three lunch choices, and they were all delicious. If I had to choose, my favourite would be the Oshi followed by nigiri. Service was also impeccable, very kind and attentive wait staff. Would definitely return and recommend. read more

Aesthetically pleasing and a delight on the palate. You will not be disappointed. The best in the area!

Walked in on a weekend around 6pm. Although the sushi was some of the freshest I've had, my overall experience was quite poor. There was no dine in option, yet I had to wait for over an hour just for takeout. If I hadn't lived in the neighborhood, I would have walked away. I don't mind spending money on high quality food, but I feel too much of the cost went to the packaging rather than on the food itself. I love paying for pretty and delicious food. I don't know if I can justify paying for fancy garbage, and the waste-to-food ratio per takeout is quite high (folded paper container that mimics bento boxes, laminated business card, and fancier-than-average but still one-time-use chopstick,) Ultimately, no takeout experience really beats a dine-in experience, so the overall fancy packaging just seems wasteful. And what kind of sushi bar doesn't give wasabi? Almost everything they offer contains raw fish yet "wish they had wasabi" seems to be a common feedback on Google. I understand that not everyone eats wasabi, but all other sushi places I've been to provides it by default. The lack of wasabi actually ruined the food for me. Wasabiless sushi for someone who's always eaten sushi with wasabi just doesn't taste the same. read more

Although it's new, I can already tell this place is something special. The fish is incredibly fresh and beautifully plated. My fav so far is their Mosaic Chirashi which looks like it belongs in an art gallery. The uni sashimi is sweet and delicious and the rice is just the perfect amount of complimentary tang to the fish in the nigiri. Can't wait until they open dine-in to try their gozen sets! read more

I don't usually do reviews but this place is absolutely amazing. The quality of the sushi, the taste of the rice itself already shows how amazing this location is.
