We've been here a couple of times now; once for a takeaway and once to eat in. As far as I know,…read morethis is the only place in Pickering that has Poké bowls so that's what I come here for. I'm not going to lie, I'm confused by the decor. It's like a mix between a sports bar and a sushi place. I think it's the big heavy oak wood bar that dominates the restaurant combined with the typical uncomfortable bench seats... but yet there's some proper tables and chairs. It just throws me off a bit. No matter, the food is good. Their salmon poké bowl is delicious. The description is that it includes, Sushi Rice with Salmon, Avocado, Kani, Cucumber, Tobiko, Wakame, Green Bean, Corn, Mango, Mayo. I asked for a side of spicy mayo and it really kicked it up a notch. Next time I'll ask them to make it with spicy mayo instead. I'm pretty sure it had pineapple instead for mango though and honestly, it brightens up the dish. The guys running the place are really nice and the service is great. Super friendly and really welcoming. Everything that was being served to the other tables looked fantastic. I really do need to start trying other items on their menu. 3.5 for now. :)

The rolls were well made and tasty, but I thought there was a bit too much rice and the volcano roll could use more sauce since it was deep fried.

After a three year reign, I think they have fallen off the fave sushi list. In the last two months,…read moretheir rolls have been falling apart, their rice has been wet and sticky, and their sashimi fish quality has been meh. One time I had a tummy ache but nothing serious after eating their fish. Not sure if management or chef has changed but they're no longer consistently good. In fact the last three times have been no good. I think it's time to find another sushi spot.

Simple, delicious, and priced right at only $12.99! Give them a try!

I recently had dinner with a friend at their Ajax location and we may have over-indulged, but it was hard to resist all the goodness featured on their menu. As we dined, their robot passed our table several times, delivering dishes to other tables, including things we could/should have ordered. It all looked so good! Our over-indulgence included too many dishes to mention but they included sushi, sashimi, udon, tempura, maki, dim sum, and much more. Of course, we had to have some desserts - fried bananas, puddings, ice cream, and more! We were so stuffed, and happy. It was an excellent meal, with delicious food, and excellent service!

Dine in at this restaurant, spend at least $50 on your meal, and get a $10 voucher off your bill till May 9, 2026. - This eatery has an all-you-can-eat ice cream bar! This past Monday evening, I broke out of the house to have a dinner feast with a friend. We ordered a lot off the menu, guilty of eating with our eyes. I used to drop by this eatery maybe fifteen years ago fairly often. It was nice to return. I had no problem finding a parking spot fairly close to the main entrance. I backed into a spot and walked into the restaurant. We got these drinks: - Sapporo draft 20 oz - Diet Coke Refills on pop are free. I certainly took advantage of it! So refreshing. We ordered these goodies: - Garden salad - Gyoza (dumpling) (2 pcs) - Beef skewer (1 pc) - Fried calamari (2 pcs) - Pork cutlet - Enoki beef roll (2 pcs) - Yakitori (chicken) (1 pc) - Negimayaki (beef) (2 pcs) - Squid tempura (5 pc) - Crab tempura (1 pc) - Siu mai (2 pc) - Thai chicken coconut curry - Spicy California roll (6 pcs) - Mushroom tempura (2 pcs) - Coconut shrimp (1 pc) - Chicken with bao bun (1 pc) - Har gow (2 pc) - Chicken with mushroom - Beef udon - Chicken teriyaki - Beef with broccoli - Dynamite handroll (1 pc) - Crab pizza (4 pcs) - Spicy Crab handroll (1 pc) - Spicy crab on chip (1 pc) - Grilled butterfish sushi (1 pc) - Crab sushi (1 pc) - Beef short ribs (3 pcs) - Beef steak Delicious food! I could rave for hours on how yummy everything was. I will spare you! Highlights: - This place does tempura well. Crispy, without the oiliness. - The Thai chicken coconut curry was excellent. It had a bit of heat and I dipped everything in that amazing coconut curry. - Any protein on a skewer will not disappoint. - Chicken and mushrooms was a comforting dish. - The two hand rolls were excellent! There was only one dish that wasn't great. It was the beef steak that was more on the chewy side. There's something for everyone at this eatery. I thought that I couldn't shovel any dessert after our feast. I saw the all-you-can-eat ice cream bar and my stomach ignored now full it felt. I'd return for the desserts alone. We enjoyed these desserts: - Fried bananas (2 x 2 pcs) - Ice cream (orange, cotton candy, cookies and cream) - Tiramisu cake - Mini macaroon - Coconut pudding - Mango pudding - Creamsicle pudding The ice cream bar is the perfect end to your meal. My friend said to put the fried bananas in with the ice cream, which tastes like a banana split. He was right! This place has a couple of sushi robots. One had a cat face, which brought a birthday dessert to someone celebrating that evening. The other one was shorter and didn't have any face on it. I used the washroom before I left. The circular mirror with flowers on the counter were nice touches. I had a great time. It was nice returning for a fabulous dinner with great company. (150)

Just 30 minutes from Toronto, Yakyoto Grill in Pickering is a must-visit for Japanese BBQ…read more(YAKINIKU) lovers!! The King Kalbi short ribs are juicy and flavorful, while the Tsubo Harami (marinated beef in ceramic jars) is unbelievably tender. They also serve fresh seafood, crispy fries, and the perfect desserts -- from housemade gelato to every flavor of Melona bar. Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and top-quality food make this one of the best Japanese grills in the GTA.

Great AYCE BBQ place similar to Gyubee. Not related to other restaurants…read more In comparison to the other bigger brands they have very similar variety and quality food. The quality and seasoning of meat were great. The spicy shrimp was lovely. The miso salmon was nice and soft. The same clams were lacking a little flavour and there were no vermicelli. The fries, takoyaki, wings and cheesy corn were great. I was surprised to see takowasa. It was not bad but could use more of the crunchy veggies and more wasabi flavours. The bibimbap was meatless and could use more sauce but the rice and egg was perfect. They offered a good Melona variety. The creme brulee was ordered to torch and came in a legit ramekin but I wished the sugar crust was thicker. Great service and environment. I did find the seats a bit cramped especially when sharing the middle booth. We were reminded of the 1.5hr last call and 2hr seating limit a few times though. And also reminded that if we cannot finish the food that we should set it aside... Overall, happy to see a nice AYCE BBQ place make it further into Durham!

An ordinary dining experience at Odine…read more I'm quite disappointed with the overall evening I had, from the food to the atmosphere. The restaurant is in dire need of some love and care. It's dated and old with way too much signage. The booths are covered with taped flyers denoting tons of sales and specials. If you have to slash prices in your items and advertise so aggressively your business may be doing badly. Why is there an awkwardly placed drink fridge at the front door? There's signs of damage and disrepair all across the restaurant. It's in badly need of being fixed up and renovated. The bathrooms are filthy, cobwebs and dead bugs everywhere. The light switch is covered with grime. The air vent may be a fire hazard with the caked on dust. The food doesn't fair much better. It's average at best and priced too high for the lower quality of ingredients. I ordered the Maki Set which was coming apart before it got to my table. The Pad Thai tasted too sweet. The spring rolls and fresh rolls were the only two dishes I enjoyed. Savoury and delicious, and full of flavour. The only redeeming factor was the service. Friendly, knowledgeable, and fast. The servers do need a uniform though, I'm confused why one of them was wearing Adidas sweat pants. Sadly I don't think I'll be back.

We ordered a wonton soup, salmon avocado roll, beef enoki and rice. My husband really enjoyed the wonton soup. He said the wontons were filled with shrimp and chicken and he thought they were good. I ordered the beef enoki with rice as a gluten free dish and really enjoyed it. The beef enoki had a lot of flavour and they provided me with gluten free soya sauce and ginger to go with the appetizer and it tasted scrumptious and the service was pretty good. We shared the salmon avocado roll and it was really fresh and was well priced. Would we return? Possibly if passing through the area.
