    Over the weekend, we walked over for brunch and was surprised at how busy they are over the weekend! We were lucky to be seated immediately. Between the 2 of us, we ordered a black sesame french toast and an okonomiyaki. Not many places offer black sesame french toast so I was excited to try it. They put black sesame spread between what appears to be shokupan. It's pretty delicious and goes as a nice dessert after the savoury okonomiyaki! The only concern we have is the wait for the food. Maybe they were short staffed that day, but the wait was longer than when we were last there. Overall, we are happy to have them in the neighbourhood and that they're busy!

    Late brunch ! I think this is a new place in leslieville. I only came across it when my dear friend mentioned it. The service was great, our server was very nice and helpful. It was pretty quiet when I went, Tuesday mid morning time. I like it like that. I can enjoy my meal and conversation without interruptions. The food was good! And good serving size for me. It's so close to home, might just come back on another weekday brunch !

    SCENIC coffee + brunch, nestled in Leslieville, expertly crafts coffee and classic brunch staples with a contemporary Japanese twist. Imagine yuzu eggs benedict and strawberry mochi pancakes. If you just want a nibble with your coffee, try their snacks like the okonomiyaki grilled cheese. Brunch

    Good Japanese style brunch on the east end! My only complaint was that the menu is very paired down compared to the menu I found online, which I assume is the menu for the Markham location. I got the black sesame French toast which was delicious! Honestly it didn't even need the maple syrup. BF got the Benny and he liked it too. The rose latte is VERY good- would recommend. I would come back if they added more to the menu but honestly, nothing else really stood out at me.

    Been here a couple of times now, and my wife and I have fallen in love with this place. Really enjoy the Japanese fusion take they have on standard brunch items. We've been making our way through the menu and have tried: - Yuzu Eggs Benedict: The biscuit is made in-house, and you can taste the difference. Like the onsen eggs which have a gooey texture to them. The side potato salad is really tasty. - The Scenic: While I enjoyed the eggs benny more, the beauty of this dish is the shokupan toast, which was thick and pillowy and milky. - Okonomiyaki Grilled Cheese: Standard grilled cheese that's made a thousand times more interesting with the contrasting flavours of the bonito and nori. - Black Sesame French Toast: Not a combination I'd ever seen but this definitely works. The thick milky shokupan bread sandwiches a generous spread of nutty black sesame. Again, the contrasting flavours elevate the dish. - Blueberry Mochi Pancakes: Airy pillows with a generous heaping of blueberries. - Mochi Cookie: Soft and chewy, with a nicely gummy interior. - Coffee: Have tried the flat white, cortado, and hojicha latte. The hojicha latte is definitely the best and most interesting one. Service is friendly and helpful. Prices are what they are these days. Space is bright and well laid out. Overall vibe is causal and welcoming. As you can see, really like this place and will be back for more.

    I would give 10 if I could!! The brunch was delicious, the staff super friendly and the ambiance beautiful!!! I got the yuzu eggs benedict and tried the black sesame french toast. Thanks Leo for your hospitality, I can't wait to return and try the rest of your amazing menu.

    Clean and quaint café. The sesame latté was unique in flavor to me and I ordered another one to go. I really enjoyed that hollandaise as it was not too rich and the compote was not too sweet. There's a delicate touch to the meals and very enjoyable. I do not live in the neighborhood but will go back again and again. I can't forget about the service. The staff were very friendly, attentive, and amusing.

    Absolutely loved our brunch! We will definitely be back. The bacon and cheese Okonomiyaki was exceptional! We love the blend of flavours and the bacon was outstanding. Love the gentle but perfect application of sauces was perfect! We look forward to ordering the next wonderful dish on our return.

The beef was my favorite -- thin, tender, and cooked just right. Pork belly wrapped in lettuce with sauce was tasty, and lamb was a little tricky to grill but still flavorful. Seafood isn't the best for grilling -- shrimp and squid didn't have much flavor, and salmon and clams were okay. Veggies were solid though -- zucchini and mushrooms were cooked just right, and the grilled pineapple was sweet and delicious. Edamame was fine, takoyaki mostly batter but cute and tasty. Desserts were adorable -- caramel pudding, coconut, and banana popsicles were fun to try. The vibe is cozy but lively, perfect for couples. Grilling together was actually really fun -- taking turns, sharing, and coordinating made it feel like a little team activity. Totally enjoyed the experience, and it's a really playful, interactive way to enjoy Japanese BBQ!

It's my go-to spot to get my don fix - I love the wide variety of dons (rice bowls) that they offer with various fish and seafood combinations. There are also unique appetizers in the menu, such as Purple Yam Croquettes, Crab Crackers, Braised Bamboo Shoots with Shirasu (immature whitebait fish), and Takowasa (marinated raw octopus pieces, to be eaten with or wrapped in nori / seaweed). Although the dons are the main highlight of their menu (hence the restaurant name), they also offer traditional sushi, sashimi, sushi rolls and sets (similar to other Japanese sushi restaurants). Miso Aburi Scallops were very flavourful - nicely torched, giving the scallops a nice grill / char taste. They came with red and green seaweed, and a bit of fish roe. Large Premium Hana Don contained a good amount of fish and seafood, including a whole abalone, uni, shrimp in the shell, aburi salmon, ikura (salmon roe), salmon sashimi, tuna sashimi, yellowtail sashimi, other various fish sashimi, tamago (egg), and a few slices of cucumber on a generous bed of rice. I liked that the rice was a mix of white rice and some type of dark-coloured grains. Unatama Don came with a big piece of unagi and tamago (egg) that were both excellent. The sashimi were all fresh. Okonomiyaki was disappointing but it was sort of expected... for only $9, it was about 99% just flour pan-fried in a patty, without any substantial fillings (unlike real okonomiyaki, which usually contains protein / seafood, cabbage, eggs, and other ingredients). Location is super convenient near Bay & Dundas, ambiance is very casual, and service is quick.

What I really liked was that they had 3 options of warm water - Hot, Warm, and room temperature. Instinctively I knew this place cared about the clients digestive health. Though I'm sure if you asked for ice water, they would accommodate (my friend asked for no sauces in her maki roll). The fishes were plated very pretty and because it's sushi of course it tasted good. But I was surprised at the level of wasabi that was plated. Cleared up my sinuses for 30 seconds. The establishment is very clean and bright and a great place to head to if you're in a rush.

The space itself leans more modern and clean rather than the typical dark, cozy izakaya vibe, which I actually didn't mind. It felt comfortable, not too loud, and easy to settle into for a slow dinner. We ordered a mix of small plates to share, and everything came out looking nicely put together. The aburi-style salmon sushi was one of the highlights for me.. lightly seared, with a soft texture and just enough flavor on top without being overwhelming. The tuna tataki was also fresh and clean, simple but well done. Some of the fried dishes leaned a bit richer with the creamy sauces, but they were still enjoyable, especially if you're in the mood for something a little more indulgent. The beef fried rice was straightforward but satisfying, one of those dishes that's easy to keep going back to between everything else. Drinks were a nice touch too.. refreshing, nicely presented, and added to the overall experience. Overall, this feels like a solid spot for a casual night out with friends. It's not overly traditional, but it's easygoing, shareable, and comfortable.. the kind of place you'd come back to when you just want good food and a relaxed atmosphere.

The menu is set up to where you pick the entree and then what type of protein you want out of pork loin, chicken, fish, cheese, and sweet potato cheese. I settled on the sweet chili katsu. A piece of chicken arrived on a plate accompanied with rice and shredded cabbage. The chicken was breaded in a light panko like crumb and was half covered in the sweet chili sauce. I ate a couple of pieces and the crisp texture and flavor was wonderful. I had a bite of rice and when I got to the cabbage to my dismay I found a long piece of hair in it. I immediately lost my appetite and all I could think about was how great the two bites of chicken was. I gave up the plate and showed the staff what I found. They offered another plate a couple of times and after I declined a refund was issued. Katsuya. sucks for serving me one of the best pieces of breaded chicken in my life with hair in the food. I'm struggling to hold back the tears now as I write. I did get to try the parmesan fries which were ok. I also tasted the udon which is not one of their stronger dishes. This probably would have been five stars had it not been for the hair. I know this happens on the rare occasion but probably shouldn't if hair nets are worn. If you do try out this place, expect great katsuya.
