| - I went to this restaurant two nights in succession; once to take a party for my daughter's birthday party and the second just to show a friend.
Both the evening's experiences were very good.
It is a large open restaurant opposite the bus station on Dundas St., of all places.
Overall the quality of the service and the food is a significant step up from the student type "Japanese" restaurants owned by Koreans or Chinese along Bloor Street and Queen streets.
The price point is also a step up from these establishments too, but well worth the differential.
The Greene Dragon and the Red Dragon were both a delight, particularly the latter, which was clearly a work of art.
My friend and I swooned over the quality of the Maguro sushi, which really put them into a category of a 'better' Japanese restaurant.
The various tempura were standard and yet well executed, as was their Karaage and Ebi mayo, they arrived piping hot, which is difficult to accomplish.
And the bills: - one for five people and one for two, were similar, in being just under $200. (The latter having significantly more flasks of Sake!!)
The service was exceptionally attentive, and had beautiful Japanese characteristics.
Notwithstanding its unlikely location, I would recommend.
