| - Let me put it this way.
My dinner at Toko's was the best dinner I've had this month. It was better than any other Japanese restaurants I have visited in Ohio over the last four years.
So it is $19.99 all you can eat. Caveat is you can only get 4 slabs of sashimi per person.
OMG, let me tell you. Those were the best sashimi's I've had in Ohio. When I see other folks just getting california rolls to jam in their stomach pouch, I see lost opportunities. I tried octopus, red hopper, yellow tail, and striped bass. They were all out-of-this-world. I know there's no ocean nearby. But somehow, these sashimi's were absolute, lethal killers. Mellow you out, put you through nirvana. I didn't want to use soy sauce, it was that good.
Likewise, sushis were also very good. I really liked eel, egg, & yellow tail.
The boss part about this is you can order so many different appetizers! And my goodness... The scallop pancake, holy moly! It is so chewy, and full of flavor. Beer nariyaki (something like that?). Just really neat, full of flavor, but really thoughtfully packaged.
They had it all for me. Lean food, with such great flavors in sashimi and appetizer. Even the rolls (I got eel w/ avocado) was not one of those giant, tons of mayo-based sauce, in your face decoration. It was modest but, man those flavors!!!!
If my parents/ friends came to town, I'd bring them here. Personally, I liked the flavors here more than even some of the best restaurants in Cleveland, like greenhouse of tavern, lola, etc.
For the $19.99, I ended up getting two sets of orders:
miso soup; clear broth soup; scallop pan cake; beef nakiyaki(?); 2 sets of sashimi (4 pc's total); 2 pc's of sushi; 2 sets of rolls.
Go here, b/c I want this restaurant to stay open and also keep its quality! Go go go!
