    I had lived in Toronto for many years before moving away from the city. Had to come in a few days for work and decided to visit DaiLo with a friend. Why did I rob myself of this experience for so long? The food was 5-star! We ordered the wontons, pork hock, tacos, and the smoked duck. Every dish hit its mark perfectly with well-balanced flavors. The ambience of the restaurant is very nice and it isn't a place that packs restaurant goers elbow to elbow. Lastly, the service provided by the staff rivals the quality of the food.

    I’ve been to Ultra several times and the food, service and drinks are phenomenal. Most recently, I was there for supper with a group to celebrate a friend’s birthday and for the most part it was wonderful. Unfortunately, we seemed to be surrounded by several tables of ‘influencers’ who were constantly wondering in and out of the Gold room, taking constant photos and worried about their hair, makeup and wardrobe. It was extremely interruptive to us an other tables (considering the money we were paying for supper and drinks).

    The value for what we had was outstanding - sashimi dishes were very fresh, very nice quality, and the rolls were delicious. The karaage was great as well. We ordered around 8:45pm and several dishes were sold out: all of the wagyu dishes, the spring rolls, and the hapa pockets; the sushi bites sold out after our first order, so when we asked for a second we weren’t able to get more. Sapporo on tap was great. Half of our party doesn’t drink and the mocktails were delicious. It was extremely loud inside - I think if you want a quieter meal, try to get an earlier seating, toward the back of the restaurant. Our server was lovely, but service was a bit slow at times. Over all, a good experience for a fun relaxed atmosphere.
