  • This place is good for photos (i.e., the mountains of brick toast topped with all sorts of ridiculousness) but that is more or less the only reason why you'd really want to come here. First off, the menu. It's an eclectic combination of random themes and items that might be best described as "fusion." Fused between what, you might ask. Well you've got an obvious Japanese connection (with the ramen, omurice, and takoyaki offerings). There is a random Korean connection with the "bibimbap" options. And then there is some typical Chinese stuff (be it HK or Taiwan); most of the desserts fit in this category. It is hard to pinpoint what exactly they were trying to accomplish here. The menu is really quite disconnected, even moreso than Toronto's transit system. As for actual food quality, it is hit or miss. According to my companions, the ramen is quite good, though expectedly not quite up to the same standard as any authentic ramen house. Their rendition of bibimbap I found extremely awkward. It comes in a small bowl overflowing with toppings, to the point that you're unable to stir up the sauce into the bowl. And the bowl is actually quite small compared to the bibimbap you would get at any Korean place. It also is not as satisfying when it comes to flavour (beware that the sauce they give you is some other random sauce and not the standard gochujang). The teppanyaki rice seems interesting, but at the end of the day it's basically more or less a bulgogi (or something similar) served with rice ON the hot plate itself. Cute attempt at trying to be creative, but it's only about as creative as a Justin Bieber song. Desserts are interesting and good for some photos so that you can generate some social media envy. But at the end of the day, it's nothing special compared to your average Taiwanese or HK dessert house. Service was hectic on a Saturday night and we found it difficult to track down servers. They got the job done but there is nothing in particular to commend. Place gets busy on weekends - arrive later than 7 and you might find yourself having to wait a little while for a table. Decor is pretty modern and trendy, good enough for a date if you can stand the spotty service. All in all, not a place that I would actively want to go back to but it's good enough that I wouldn't try to avoid it like the plague.
