  • Came here on a Monday night and had dinner in. It's a small space and it doesn't look like they take reservations. Normally, I would give this place 4 stars as I was not impressed with their service (more explained below) but the food and atmosphere was so great that one star for those sections were not enough. I'd absolutely come back here again and again (this may have to be a new Toronto staple). Food: The restaurant is Japanese Izakaya which is basically Japanese style Tapas. The menu is not 500 items long but has a good variety between more raw/sushi like items and hot dishes. We tried both buns and they were outstanding. The Katsu bun is slightly better than the Moto in terms of unique flavors but both were very well executed (and a little messy). The waitress told us that the buns are messy and that they do not give out cutlery so you should order two. It's OK, we shared and it wasn't the worst thing in the world. The Sushi Aburi was excellent and fun to have a deconstructed roll and then you roll yourself. The Dyno wings were so good we had to order more. We were skeptical on the concept. On the one hand I love chicken wings and I love pork dumplings. But together? There is no middle ground, its either amazing or heresy. Luckily, it was amazing. The drinks are also as complex as most of the dishes. The miso ice cream is a must. We shared it amongst the two of us and it came with tiny spoons so you could keep savoring it over and over again. The ice cream was definitely made with condensed milk and had a more kulfi like consistency to it. The little crunch on top left me with a nostalgic feeling, but to what I wasn't sure. Decor: It's like walking into what a late night at a 40s style diner is like when its past closure and all the employees are just enjoying their own meal. The seating is all over the place but it has a cool fun vibe to it. It's certainly a good talking point. It was oddly hard to find the location as there is no sign outside and if I didn't notice people outside smoking I wouldn't know where this place is. Service: The waitress we had was fine but we were happily eating our food and they just coming and taking away our plates. I was still eating some of that garnish that fell on the plate. It was pretty annoying. Like no I was not done picking at my food, let me enjoy every morsel please. Price: Overall for quality and interest, pretty darn good. Notable Extras: I think the Dyno wings and decor really suit the place. It's really is a place that the flavor profiles, decor and ambiance just all marry well together. Kudos to their designer for nailing it.
