I've heard so many amazing things about this restaurant, but just checked it out last night for the first time. It was even better than I expected!
The menu is omakase (chef's selection) style, so we ordered the $150 and $120 set and shared. Every single dish that came out to us was on point. The presentation was stylish and most importantly the food was delicious. The portions were small, but there were so many courses that by the end of the meal we were completely stuffed! We had a conversation with an assistant chef after our meal and he told us that the fish they bring in is not only from Japan, but from other places in the world such as Malta and they pay a high price for it. He told us that for some of the fish, such as the Toro, a slice of sashimi can be as high as 4-5 dollars, which means that there is very little profit to be made. Chef Kaji is generous with the amount he gives to the customers because he wants them to have the best experience possible. I really respect that and this type of care for the patrons at his restaurant was evident during our meal because it was easily in my top 3 dining experiences in Toronto! I will be recommending this place to everyone I know!
