We will keep this review simple and sweet.
Instagram worthy place. Good tasting food. Picture/ video worthy food.
Greeted well upon arriving and sat close the window. The place has Edison bulbs, fish, and leaves. It looks almost like a chique cafe but serves aburi sushi.
The menu is omakase based so it starts of with a $22, $32 and $52. From a. Lite menu to a premium menu. There's also appetizers and individual rolls or oishizushi you can order.
We ordered 2 things to share a premium omakase and Chirashi tart +
For the chirashi tart if you are aware of miku's tart or momosan's tart same idea. But this has a +. You can smoke it with Sakura? Wood and it's served in front of you. Aromatic and dramatic. $3 upcharge for the experience. Did it do anything to it? Not really in my opinion. The tart was fantastic on its own. Spicy tuna, avocado, scallops and shrimp.
Premium omakase is served with 3 small apps, edamame, cabbage and salmon tataki.
Everything is ok. Nothing great. Salmon is fresh.
For the premium omakase the platter is stunning and might I say a lot of thought was put into it.
If you have been to Park restaurant Montreal, they do the same thing we're in they put a non traditional garnish on top of the sushi. From avocado to foie to unagi to gold flakes. There's 12 pcs served on the platter and everything tasted different. From uni to otoro to manguro to mackerel. I've enjoyed every bite of it.
Liqueur license is not available today I was told it's available next week.
Give it a shot place seems promising. Food took a while with a pretty empty restaurant so now I'm wondering if it's busy how will they cope with it.
Price for 2 things plus tip is $90-something. Pretty pricey but worth it. Will come back and would recommend
