Food is good and is worthy of the price. I ordered the Chef Bento that included sushi and sashimi. Sashimi was melt in the mouth fresh. Sushi was perfect for picking them up by hand. Other side dishes were standard. The beer selection was average but adequate. What amused me was how hidden this amazing Japanese bistro was, yet it survived the decades and the COVID pandemic. I walked from the parking lot, passed a physiotherapy business to get to an unnoticeable front door of this Japanese bistro. And its interior was like an oasis of calm. Also I find the services polite from the moment I walked through the front door. The owners also let us stayed behind to chat long after the meal.

Not how stupid we are. How little they care. I ordered my favourite. Sashimi salad with a lobster soup. The dressing for the salad wasn't the dressing. It was soy sauce with mustard seeds. The soup. I'm ashamed. I actually called the restaurant asking for a manager. I was told a manager wouldn't be there until next week. Has anyone bought beef broth? That's what it was. Heated beef broth with a little bit of veggies, two calamari and the smallest lobster tail that had been sliced in half. I didn't get both halves. This takeout is a disgrace. The sit down in Aurora is vastly different but the take out is insulting! Stop!!!!! Stop reviewing the Aurora restaurant with the Newmarket takeout location.

We liked that it included some cooked shrimp and imitation crabmeat as my husband is not crazy about raw fish.

The price was higher than most other places... $41 per person was overpriced in my opinion. That evening both my wife and myself were quite sick... Mild cases of food poisoning.

As a parent, I am extremely disappointed by the experience my 14-year-old daughter and her two…read morefriends had at this restaurant. The girls visited during their lunch break and ordered bento boxes. They had saved their lunch money for several days so they could afford this special treat. When it came time to pay, the waitress placed the receipt directly in their faces and pressured them for tips. Instead of simply explaining tipping etiquette if she felt they were unfamiliar with it, she took the POS machine and manually entered a $5 tip for each girl without their understanding or consent. These are young teenagers, and they felt intimidated and frozen in the moment. They didn't know how to respond. After leaving the restaurant, they were upset, scared, and embarrassed. My daughter told me they felt taken advantage of. What makes this even more disappointing is that the waitress was rude and unfriendly throughout the meal. Aside from bringing their food, there was very little service provided. This restaurant is located in a high school area, and staff should know how to treat young customers with respect. Pressuring minors into tipping and making them feel uncomfortable is completely unacceptable. It felt more like bullying than customer service. We will never return, and I hope management addresses this issue so that other young customers do not have a similar experience.

Food 3.5/5 Service 3/5…read moreAmbience 3.5/5 An attractive clean looking restaurant with dine-in and take-out. The restaurant has several menu items for sushi and Korean foods and offers a menu of lunch specials. We ordered: Takoyaki Lunch BBQ salmon Donburi Tonkatsu Curry I enjoyed the Takoyaki. The size of the pieces of octopus was decent. My partner enjoyed the Tonkatsu Curry. The curry sauce came in a separate bowl. The best part of the BBQ Salmon Donburi was the avocado, which they gave a generous serving of avocado. In the Donburi, I thought the sushi rice was underwhelming and bland. The BBQ salmon was over barbecued and sooo dry it could not be saved by the lime aioli and teriyaki sauces. Our friend who ordered the sushi really enjoyed their appetizer. Service: This is the first time I can recall that there is no complimentary green tea offered when dining in at a restaurant offering sushi or Korean food. We asked for water and our friend ordered a beer. At about 15 minutes later, the beer was served. After the food arrived, still no water. We asked for the water again, and four little Chinese tea cups of water (100ml) was served. I don't know if this is standard at this restaurant but it stood out as very unusual in my experience. Plenty of parking right outside the restaurant. The restaurant is at the end of a plaza. There was a sign at the door for a sushi platter special on Wednesdays $49 that looked promising. I wanted to like the restaurant more because the dining in area was very pleasant.

I often have the Shrimp Teriyaki, which always comes with fresh, tender and crisp shrimp. The owners are very gracious. When ordering a green tea, the owner instead offered a cup made from higher quality, aromatic loose leaf tea, which I recognized by the aroma from a trip to Taiwan years ago. It brought back memories. The restaurant can get busy at lunchtime when the usual group of well behaved high school students stop in at around 12:30. Get there before that and you have the run of the place!

Although the interior is small, cozy with a few tables, they are very popular as seats started to fill up as we ordered, and there were many takeout/delivery orders. Also, the only female server there also very courteous and friendly as well :) Their menu features a good range of Japanese drinks, snacks, sashimi, rolls, maki etc. We got three orderes of salmon sashimi, one order of tamago, plus salmon teriyaki. These ordered come with a soup and salad, and I was in love with the salad dressing they used/made. It had a refreshing, and slight tangy taste to it which complicated the salad. The salmon sashimi tasted very fresh, I would've gotten more if I had enough stomach space.
