| - For those looking for a full Japanese dinner or lunch, you have the wrong place!! So for those who put up the really negative reviews do your research first. Just a thought.
For me this place is a great place to go if you are looking to eat, drink and talk.
The tapas, while yes the price is not cheap ( good things never are!), are just what you need to pair with a nice sake or Japanese beer. Add some good friends and you've got some jolly good fun, Japanese style!
The takoyaki balls there are one of the best we've had in TO.
Skewer sticks, to die for and the tempura is amazing! Just lightly battered!
The sashimi and sushi, while limited in selection are really fresh! Especially there specialty, tuna, which the entire fish is hand carved there once a week.
Guu, while it is a louder izakaya, has a different menu all together and choice on food and beverage is equal in it's limits. Honestly, for those comparing, one is REALLY loud and the other is MODERATELY loud. Depends which one you're looking for or prefer!
The staff are really friendly, even with language barriers they all try their best, and for those who said they were oblivious to the portion sizes, I think they are well aware, but I really don't think it's their decision!!
All in all a wonderful experience, time and time again.
