    Wow! It was our first time and it will not be our last! Jane was awesome and the food was perfect! The hamachi was exceptional along with the Wagyu beef. We also had the edamame and shishito peppers. the smoked Old Fashion was very good!

    Overall we had a pleasant experience, service was very good and the rest was good. I just get the impression it’s for a young crowd. It was our 25th wedding anniversary and I don’t find any real effort was made to knowledge it. Which is fine, but it could’ve give us a better feel of the place. Service was very fast. We were in and out of there in an 1h :30 minutes. They diffidently know how to make a dirty martini.

    The restaurant should notify patrons that it’s turned into a Lounge with a DJ. I showed up outside at the door to see a bouncer and club goers going in

    Very overpriced for this quality. Boring on Sunday evening.
    Tomo RestaurantResponded on May 6, 2025
    We’ve seen your 1 star reviews on both Google and OpenTable. You did not dine with us, so we’re at a loss as to how you can accurately comment on our food and service. Your party of 2 left abruptly after reviewing our menu without experience the dining service. Our restaurant prides itself on sourcing only the finest ingredients—truffle, Wagyu, foie gras, Bluefin tuna—crafted by an accomplished chef in a recently updated setting. Our commitment to quality is evident, and if our pricing doesn’t align with your expectations, that is entirely your prerogative. However, leaving negative reviews without ever having experienced our service is not only misleading, it also does a disservice to the community of small businesses that we proudly support and that make up 80% of Canada’s economy.
