The food was ok, but really not as good as I was expecting. They do have actual Japanese food on the menu (not just what we Canadians know, like teriyaki and sushi), but, while their gyudon was good - it did not taste Japanese at all! I could have easily mistake it for a text mex fajita dish or something. I honestly don't remember the rest of the stuff that we ordered, but overall neither my wife and I were particularly impressed. Still, I would eat here again if I had a good reason too, it just wasn't the Japanese experience I was hoping for. Also, when you see the word "Izakaya" you (I, at least) usually think loud and busy crowd. That was not the case here at all.
Oh and another plus - the staff were extremely accommodating in terms of making substitutions.
