| - Shinta is an AYCE BBQ that truly defines this new era of unique restaurants catering to the adventurous and what a lot of people call the YOLO generation. Some of the reviews that I have read prior to trying out this place personally, made me believe this to be a overpriced way of paying for an AYCE BBQ, with a slight inclination towards better quality meat. However, in my humble opinion, this is probably the best AYCE BBQ place you can go to within the Toronto area.
The first few reviews truly did not explain the fact about the food or environment and was heavily biased towards wait times, which I find harsh and unreasonable (To each their own) . If you truly judge just based on quality of food, then this place can easily be top tier as well as still on the relative affordable end if done properly. What I mean by this is, it seems like the normal BBQ without any of the Wagyu experience is around $34.99 (+/- a dollar) which I find very reasonable. Most AYCE these days charge around the $25-$30 mark anyways, and to have better quality cuts, I find highly encouraging to charge the extra premium.
If you want to try the partial Wagyu experience, it does climb to double the original price to experience the unlimited Wagyu experience. Now the AYCE Wagyu experience does have some limitations as to the types of cut as well as to where the meat originates from (particularly the US and Australia), but I do not see a problem as you have access to a higher tier meat for the extra premium they charged. My friends and I decided, that since we were going for the fully experience of the Wagyu taste, we added orders in a "a la carte" style serving experience of their Japanese Wagyu in the amounts of 300 grams. This pretty much gives you 3 plates of their top tier Wagyu beef at the cost of around $30 odd dollars per 100 grams of their japanese beef.
The Japanese Wagyu is a great addition for anyone wanting to experiment and taste the experience of top tier beef and is a definite must for anyone that has never tried. Personally, I believe that the next time I come again (while i love this place, I think AYCE is generally a once in every couple of months experience), probably the normal AYCE and adding the Japanese Wagyu is the way to go as the AYCE Wagyu option is limited anyways and let's be real, if you have too much of the same Wagyu anyways, it would not be a true pleasure of an experience and would not be as much of an enjoyment as if you truly savor your meal through one bite at a time.
Definitely will come again ahead of some of the other AYCE places that are continuously popping up in the Markham area, however, for now I will just savor the experiences of enjoying Wagyu within the GTA.
