I've been living abroad for many years but I never forgot this restaurant. I came here before I understood how to eat sushi properly, and didn't know too much about Japanese culture. But I was amazed at how the chef tried to explain the basics to all the patrons - and I think that he even had some instructions printed lol.
He was gracious, polite, and engaging. But he still fought for the best culinary experience for those visiting his establishment.
Their Japanese food and sushi was my favorite while I lived in TO. Extremely fresh and well prepared.
It's also very romantic inside their cute Tatami rooms, and this is just one of those perfect places to escape from it all...
Masuda-san is a true Taisho. I wish him much luck and success! And hope to stop by again when I am next back home...
