Update: the restaurant has changed.
I have such great memories of every time I've been to GUU over the years. Perfect for meeting friends, dates, or for forcing your parents to try something that is out of their comfort zone and knowing it will win them over in spades. However, since it has changed into Kinka, the last two times I've been we're underwhelming. food tasted like it was made by a line cook. not as fresh, not as carefully prepared. With many good japanese izakays in the West end, I don't think I'll make the leap to Church anymore for this restaurant.
