  • We've been to the Kibo on Parliament before and I would say this Leslieville location is very similar in every way. I'll start off by saying that both locations have good service and I really appreciate the effort the staff takes to make sure we had what we needed throughout our meal. We were there for dinner and got the boat combo for two. It's very filling and in that sense, it is great value. Having said that, none of the items actually require much skill to make. I'd never order edamame or tempura normally, but it was part of the combo. It was such a large portion that by the time our sushi came we were half full. The tempura batter was brown (overdone?) and not authentic. The edamame was boiled to death and overly salted, but I guess it doesn't matter since you don't eat the pods. The sushi was disappointing, mostly because it's the same typical trio of fish that you see everywhere. Tuna, Salmon, some tasteless white fish (likely tilapia), repeat. I don't eat sushi in TO much anymore for this reason and tend to go to izakayas instead. I think Kibo does prepare their sushi fresh, but seriously, the fish is not particularly fresh. It barely taste like anything, and if I closed my eyes, it could pass for sushi from the food court, or grocery store, or AYCE. Most sushi restaurants in TO are so mindless and boring. And it's probably not Kibo's fault because everyone likely gets their fish from the same suppliers. And probably the lack of variety in sushi grade fish available to restaurants? I dunno. Bottom line though, yes I would return (not often) to Kibo - when I don't want to cook and want a simple dinner, because my expectation is an okay meal at a decent value. PS: For those who drive, it's easy to find free parking in the evenings.
