I have been to this place so many times and I realized I haven’t left a review. Casual atmosphere, food with exceptional quality! Highly recommend premium beef tongue, p-toro and grilled squid. Drinks are amazing too. 100% recommend for after work hangout with friends hehe :)

Food is not as good as before. Feels like interns are working there on weekdays. This place was very special with the yakitori options it offered, great atmosphere similar to a yakitori bar in japan. But the cooking and tasting is definitely not as good as it used to be. Consistency needs improvement.

Service was excellent. Food was on point. Pork belly I highly recommend as it was on point in terms of texture and juiciness, it literally stole the show for me. Second favourite was grilled Mackerel, it was seasoned well and slightly under so that it wasn’t overwhelming with the side of soy sauce. In fact all the dishes I had were well seasoned to perfection, nothing overly salty or under, just on point. So with all that in consideration, it’s a true 5star experience for me.

Amazing selection of Japanese BBQ skewers! Skewers are so juicy and tender even though a bit salty. Udon is one of my favorite noodles I found in Toronto downtown. Creamy, tasty but not too greasy. Great options for lunch or dinner. Matcha ice cream pancake is so creative dessert which I never had. Ice cream is not too sweet but is perfect option for green tea lovers. We would definitely visit again.

This place is THE SPOT for legit Japanese skewer experience. If in doubt, just start off with their Zakkushi set then add more after. I personally recommend trying their wagyu beef skewer. Pricey, but in my opinion the best way to enjoy wagyu beef.You cannot miss on their Japanese cocktails. You will see every table getting Shiso Mojito. Get em too before they run out. I enjoyed their other drinks too but that mojito is really the BEST.This place is always packed, so unless you come early or super late, you are guaranteed to wait for awhile.Overall a great experience and I've already went back a few times. Highly recommend!

Great spot for a snack. My first yakitori izakaya spot that gives off typical izakaya vibes. Came here on a Tuesday night after 9pm and didn't have to wait for a table for 2. Sadly we missed the $20 Sapporo pitcher special which ended at 7:59PM. We ordered 2 Sapporos on tap and 1 Zakkushi set to snack on. Skewers were really tasty and perfectly cooked.Would recommend and come back for a place to snack on. This place is quite pricey if you come hungry.

Not sure what to expect, but wow. Fantastic food. This place is known for their meats, so if you are a vegetarian, it's not for you. They have a wide variety of meats that come grilled on skewers. My fav were the lamb chops, chicken wings, and their A5 Wagyu! I've never had an A5 grade before and wow. Just like butter. Definitely worth checking out.

I loved the restaurant and the food! I've been to other similar ones, but this one exceeded my expectations. The only issue I find annoying is that you have a specific length of stay - but that's common in some restaurants in Toronto. Other than that, everything is very good!

Went here for dinner last night. It was still an amazing experience. All in all is perfect. The food, the service and the environment. I always love to come here for a good time. Lovely place for yakitori. Highly recommend.
