| - Went here on a Wednesday night mainly for ramen, but was informed that they no longer sell it (not on the menu either). This place is alright. The menu to me isn't that interesting.
The most interesting (but not that tasty) dish we had was this raw small squid dish which was reallllyyyyy salty.
We also had the udon which was good, nice chewy noodles in a clear broth, the fish cake that came with it lacked texture and was really salty though, but the noodles and broth was good.
The spicy french fries was a surprisingly large portioned dish for an izakaya place, it was alright, not bad but nothing to write home about, but good bang for your buck.
I liked the beef tataki, nicely portioned and flavorful.
Service, was meh, the waitstaff was not that welcoming, no goodbyes when we left, no thank you when we paid, I guess from other Izakaya experiences, I expected more friendliness? They are the take your order quickly and rapidly drop the food on your table types.
Overall, I paid about the same amount as I would pay at Guu for a meal for two (around $50-$60 for 2 people) but I find the service and food much more inferior in quality and creativity. There are many better options in downtown Toronto, Guu, Kingyo, Hapa, so this place is definitely not my first choice.
