| - Update: We went back on a deal day, so I thought to make an update based on service and new food items that I haven't already mentioned before.
The food -
Chicken wings
Plentiful. The guy in our group liked these. I thought it was just okay. It came with hot sauce. Someone else in our group mentioned a different sauce would have been better.
Tuna coin
They came out cold and the bottom wasn't as crispy as it normally was.. I think the server just forgot to bring this out to us. I'll let it slide as the flavor was still good and Tuesday is a really busy night for them.
Takoyaki
Five pieces. We all enjoyed these. They were a good size and up to our standards for takoyaki.
Tortilla bites
A nice bite to have with a hit of heat in some, but not all of them. The dish comes with five pieces. I don't think I'll order this again.
Fanny bay, malpeque, kushhi and French kiss oysters
We did 2 rounds of oysters (4 serving plates total). The sizes were a lot more consistent than on previous deal days. There was still some variances in size, but the range wasn't too far off to care. They set the expectation that the oysters would take about 20-25 mins to come out, but both rounds came out surprisingly quick. They all were shucked really clean, the staff must have a lot more experience with this now. We kept asking for fresh horseradish, which the staff always brought out with no issues.
We also got baked oysters, the beef sashimi, honey butter corn again. They were all consistent and as always, I will order these items again.
The service:
Everything that could have been a downfall for me, was fixed during this visit. First, I forgot to put a reservation down for us on one of their busiest nights (oops!).
Luckily, we were able to secure three good spots at the bar right away at 6:30 pm! The staff was welcoming and provided service whenever we needed it. They refilled water and brought more napkins and took away dirty/finished dishes quickly without us having to ask. They checked on us when we were looking at the menu, so we could order more right away. We also got our bill quickly and paying was smooth (split three ways). As a result, I gladly tipped them more than the last time.
Rumour: I overheard them saying they're opening a second location in May. Possibly in the don mills shops if my eavesdropping skills are on point, but it's so loud in there.. Who knows. If they do open there, I hope they stay consistent with their great food and service. I will definitely check it out if they do open there; especially since parking is FREE at don mills shops!
