  • I was really impressed with this place. After I came back from Japan last year, I haven't eaten much sushi in Toronto. I was disappointed by all the places I used to go, so I took a break. The fish just wasn't fresh enough and I felt like they all seemed to work really hard to mask that by their various sauces. Before I went to Japan, I thought all the sauces and dressings were an innovative break from tradition. After my trip, I realized that it had nothing to do with tradition. When you have really fresh high quality fish, you don't want to mask or detract from its delicate flavour and texture. It's a waste. Accompaniment should be minimal and complementary. Basically, there's really no place for sauce on a good piece of fish. I tried this place last night. If has renewed my faith that you can get high quality fish of variety in Toronto. It's not the cheapest, but as Anthony Bourdain says, "cheap" and "sushi" don't go in the same sentence. Good fish just isn't cheap. I had a variety of sashimi and a few appetizers. For appetizers, we had the deep fried oysters (I had to try these) and some home-made gyoza's. Both pretty good. They had just flown in some uni (sea urchin) from boston that morning, so I had to try that. If you've ever had sea urchin that wasn't super fresh, you probably think its disgusting. To put it mildly, it tastes like ass when it isn't fresh. When it's fresh, it has a very subtle sweet flavour and a really nice texture. It was good here! The salmon was the freshest i've had in Toronto. Unfortunately, they were out of mackerel but I was really surprised they even had it on their menu. I've never seen mackerel in sashimi form outside of Japan until now. The scallop sashimi was also quite good. And the smoked white tuna was very nice. This is a family run joint where only one of the servers isn't part of the immediate family. Service was excellent. Their daughter was our server and she was extremely good. Explained everything on the menu and told us all about what came in when and from where. I will be back.
