Many other Japanese style places with better value. The sea bass was excellent (as you’d hope for $50+). Maki and Gyoza were standard to mediocre. One goes for a special occasion … if views are main criteria, it works. Less so for the food

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. Ahmed went above and beyond to make us feel special, and every member of the team was attentive, kind, and professional. The food was delicious, the ambiance perfect, and the service absolutely top-notch. It’s rare to find a place where you feel so well taken care of — Valérie is truly a gem. Thank you, Ahmed, for making our visit so memorable. We’ll definitely be back! Yasmine Nancy (from Switzerland living in Toronto)
