    Kitano lunch special with no white fish. Fresh sashimi.
    Min K.

    Haven't tried enough of their menu to say 5 star but so far quality is fresh and portions are good. Service is good also.

    Volcano roll, Pink pearl roll, love love roll

    If you're looking for rolls, I would rate them 4/5 - huge rolls - tight rice - each person can order 1 roll to be full - lots of sauce if you are a sauce person you'll like it - fusion style rolls - more korean style If you're looking for authentic Japanese sushi, 3/5, this is not a place for authentic Japanese sushi - roll too big, take 2-3 bites to eat 1. I like bite size sushi or roll as I was used to traditional Japanese sushi that each bit get everything as a combination - spicy salmon was more tempura and sauce than the actual salmon - too much sauce that covers the raw flavour of the food - sashimi platter: I don't eat white tuna/butter fish so I told them replace it with some other fish. They just simply put salmon to replace. Quite disappointed as they can do assorted fish... now the whole plate is mainly salmon.... Overall 3.5/5. I was expecting traditional classic Japanese sushi/roll. Turns out it's more Caucasian style saucy rolls. If you're a picky eater (like me) for Japanese sushi, you might not like it because it's not the traditional rice texture, vinegar, size etc. I have high standard when it comes to those details. However if you're looking for some rolls that can make you full and had a good night with tasty special rolls, you'll enjoy it! They taste good.

    The interior decor is modern Japanese, sleek, with nice wooden finishes and comfortable ambiance. Menu selection is pretty extensive, and their sushi are some of the best and freshest in the York Region. Sushi rolls are quite large, with lots of fish and fillings (not overloaded with rice, unlike in some places). The lunch bento boxes come with miso soup, rice, Korean glass noodles (jap chae), yam tempura sushi, salad, and mixed vegetables. I like how they don't skimp on the veggies - there's a good mix of broccoli, carrot, onion, mushrooms, bell peppers, zucchini. The salad contains more than just lettuce (it has actual dark greens such as baby spinach and arugula). The teriyaki salmon and unagi don buri are pretty good as well. Sashimi orders come in pretty large size (bigger than in most sushi restaurants I've been to). The unagi sashimi even comes with a bit of rice and daikon noodle strands! Great service, lovely interior decor, and awesome food for casual Japanese.

    As we walked in we were promptly greeted by the chefs and servers. The restaurant is clean and ambiance is good. Service is very attentive and quick-the server even asked me if the window beside me was cold. We went for lunch and they had a Lunch menu til 3pm. We ordered a Set C and a Kitano lunch-the big difference for $3 is 6 pieces of sashimi and one less sushi (IMHO the Kitano lunch is better value). All the ingredients was fresh, nicely presented and tastes good. One minor issue is the Surf Clam sashimi was very sandy inside making it not edible. The other pieces were all very good! An interesting tidbit is their choice of background music was not soothing/relaxing music but rather an "younger mix" with a bit too much dance and heavy beats. I did not find the music bad (I enjoyed it but I think it's definitely my kids music choice) It was the first time I heard this music choice in a Japanese place. A good, new choice in Oak Ridge! Next time we will try take out trays and sinn

    Salmon and Tuna Tower (score 4/5) The sauce lightened up the taste of the fish. I tasted sea same oil, rice vinegar and soy sauce. Al La Carte (score 5/5) Fish were fresh. They were good.

    Covid19 Lockdown in the Province , therefore take out allowed only. Recommended by a friend so we decided to try today. We did have to call a few times before anyone answered, I am sure they were quite busy with orders. They do have online ordering, but I was driving so couldn't order via online. I ordered a small sashimi just to try. It was $19. Price is reasonable for the quality. Sashimi was fresh and I enjoyed it very much. I will definitely come back for other items ok the menu. Parking is a little tight at the side, but there are more space at the back.

    Maki B Dinner ($24)
    Abby L.

    Overall good flavourful food and good dining experience! We came for dinner on a Sunday night and there was quite a bit of people in the restaurant, but luckily we didn't have to wait for a table. We ordered two rolls, a dinner set and a dinner Bento box. I'm a sucker for rolls... So I was super interested in the volcano, which was a triangle shaped spicy roll. Super cute. Very flavourful and loved the kick it gives! We also got a spider roll, which was on point flavour and texture wise, and you can definitely taste the soft shell crab. However I wished these two rolls were more tightly wrapped as they fell apart when I picked them up with my chopsticks. For the dinner specials, they both came with a miso soup and a salad. We got the Maki Set B (more rolls!). I enjoyed the Cali roll and the dynamite roll but found the salmon pretty bland even tho it had a big chunk of salmon in it. Not sure if it was a lower grade salmon as the sushi in the Bento box had the same issue. Salmon teriyaki was great though. I think the prices are a little high comparatively but if I was in the area, would definitely come back to try their other rolls!

    Snow white Maki roll and I think fire cracker

    The rolls are absolutely delicious! I ordered snow white and my friend order fire cracker (I think). I like snow white better and my friend liked hers better lol. Takoyaki was deliciousss too

    first time trying kitano sushi and their deluxe rolls r amazing!!! super huge portions and lots of flavour and unique rolls

    I've been here about 7 or 8 times after my my first review within a few months. Just 2 minutes drive from my home. Some waitress may even recognized me. Food remains consistently great. However, I'm little disappointed for my last visit about inconsistent service. There was a couple beside our table asked for take leftovers home. The waitress, I guessed she is the owner or manager, helped them to put it in the boxes and returned to them. My wife also preferred to do the same. We asked the same lady, but she just dropped the container on the table without a word. I wouldn't mind to do it myself. But please don't give me a feeling that you're providing service by selective customers.

    Taki is a fine dining Japanese restaurant located in the busy commerical areas of Richmond Hill…read more We recently had lunch here for a special occasion. The restaurant is super quiet and they offer great quality of food with great service, and the price is expensive if you choose to order sukiyaki set (expect $80+ per person). You can choose between sushi sets at different price level or sukiyaki from the menu. This suits the need of our group given some people prefer sushi but some couldn't eat raw food. They also offer a couple of limited appetizer dishes such as tempuras and unagi don. If you booked the sukiyaki table and want to order sushi, you need to call them in advance to notify which sushi sets you want. We tried the sashimi and sushi courses at $55, which included miso soup, 5 pieces of sashimi, 8 pieces of sushi (squid, toros, salmon, scallop etc.), handroll and matcha or black sesame icecream at your choice. The sushi is smaller than average, suitable for small eaters. The course is totally worth the money. I love every piece of sashimi and my favourite sushi include the scallop and the squid. Everything was super fresh. The dessert was also having the perfect sweetness level for me. In addition, we also tried the sukiyaki for two ($110), which includes mushrooms, cabbages, great quality of Angus beef, yummy tofu and udon. Again, all the material was with great quality and super fresh. I especially liked the sweet sukiyaki soup, the tofu and the udon. We also ordered some shareable dishes including chawanmushi, unagi don and cod. Cod was cooked to perfect (soft and flavourful), and unagi don had quite decent portion. It would be better if the unagi could be softer from my personal opinion. Chawanmushi was mediocre. Overall, I strongly recommend this restaurant to fan of Japanese cuisine. It meets different people's needs by offering both cooked and raw food options, and the sushi set definitely has great value for money.

    Got the dinner special $95omakase. It's a really good deal compared to their other omakase combos…read more This one doesn't have sashimi but I didn't miss it because the nigiris were all so satisfying on their own already. Was worried it wouldn't be filling, but it's just the right amount of food. Whether you're celebrating something special or just want a traditional Japanese meal, this would be my spot. The sushi chef was very friendly and approachable, but he wouldn't make you feel like you need to yap with him like other omakase I've been to in Toronto where they would talk to the customers a lot. The wait staff was attentive and polite. Overall really good quality sushi, service and value. Would come again! I also appreciate that they don't require a deposit for reservations and don't require to pick the set you want beforehand. Very clean and warm design. Felt like I was in Japan!

Ordered tempura vegetables and shrimp with 6 pieces total was only around $9. This tempura tasted truly delicious compared to other pricier restaurants! The whole staff greeted us the moment we came in with smile and felt their kindness/patience while we were looking through the menu. They were very accommodating with changing spicy salmon roll to dynamite roll in the dinner sushi sets for me since I don't eat spicy food. Other restaurants would always charge extra regardless if the price was the same or cheaper. The rice ratio for the rolls was PERFECT! Definitely the best one I've seen by far. I would love to try their signature rolls next time to see if they're the same. I would come here again for lunch and check them out. -1 star because: The sushi to rice ratio is a little too much so I had to take some off unfortunately. Also the salad that comes with the sets was bland, lettuce and 3 strings of beets.

The rolls were not just basic rolls, they were packed with flavour, texture (tempura bits) and had an excellent rice-meat ratio. The salmon terriyaki portion was amazing. Service was a little on the slow side, the the food definitely made up for it. I'm looking forward to trying out other sushi rolls & menu items as their menu is quite extensive!
