| - Beautiful decor and ambience, good service, and very fresh food.
As it is off the Yonge Street strip, not a lot of people seem to know about this place, so we had the full attention of the server, who was very nice and quick. It also made the spot quieter than your usual lunch spot, so more peaceful and relaxing. Ahh.
It is raised above the street level, so after you walk in, you also must walk a few steps up, into a really nice modernly decorated room. The seats are in a mod-looking black and white fabric, lots of cool vases and other decorative pieces are scattered about. It's a very stylish space.
This place is a wine and sake bar, but that part of the menu is ignored at lunchtime. A reminder to check it out after work!
Had the sashimi special with miso soup and salad, and everything was really good. The soup tasted fresh and not excessively salty like miso often is, the salad had a lovely presentation with the usual orange dressing and the addition of some sesame seeds scattered across. The sashimi pieces were generous and very fresh tasting.
I will definitely return, as this is an oasis of calm and good service in an otherwise busy work day.
