Saw this on BlogTO and it had good reviews so I was expecting better quality food and service than we received. We were asked to write a good review for 10% off the bill, but we did not take advantage of that. I'm guessing this is why they have such an inflated rating.
We went on a Thursday night, there was one friendly waitress working the entire restaurant (around 15 groups). Unfortunately she seemed very inexperienced and our meal took close to two hours, around half of that time waiting on one sushi roll.
Our bill rang in around $200 for two people; this place is _expensive_. We ordered one small bottle of sake, one appetizer, one sushi roll, and two rounds of skewers for reference.
The food was good, but considering price you pay, it's probably better to try another izakaya.
