   The food, drinks, service, ambiance and vibe was a great experience. Top dishes of the night were the chicken & beef skewers. They were cooked and seasoned to perfection, only leaving you wanting more. Also don’t skip out on the sushi if you’re a sushi lover. One of the best rolls I tasted in my life. Super fresh and topped with gold leaf which gave it an A1 presentation. Also, the fries were amazing. Think of McDonalds fries but seasoned with cheese and herbs giving it that extra special touch. Super addicting. Drinks were also amazing! Make sure to get one of their speciality menu items

    THE WAGYU SLIDERS ARE A MUST!! we needed up getting an order at the beginning and again right before we left because we were so infatuated with them. we also got 12pc oysters (that pink sauce was fire!! so is their hot sauce), godzilla tails (so plump and flavours were 🔥), 24h aged short rib (so tender and juicy, wish it arrived a bit warmer), signature maki (so flavourful💕, i especially liked the little kick from the jalapeño? and the gold flakes made it look so boujee), sashimi platter for 2 (part of the valentine’s day specials, so fresh & great quality), brussels sprouts (flavour was on point & charred perfectly), gyudon hot stone bowl (that onsen egg made it so creamy, it was a perfect addition, though i wish other flavours stood out a bit more) it was a friday so they had a dj playing all the right tunes, mainly hip hop throwbacks that night, was a vibe for sure. the aesthetic was on point and you must visit the first washroom!! seal but they made the space so beautiful. definitely will be back for the food and the vibes!

    Very Energetic vibe w/ live DJ spinning sm bangers + very warm attentive hosts/servers. Space is small but modern (elevated version of kinka)The washroom..🤩crazy ambiance lol zen music playing in the BG giant Asian plant with a ceiling mount drop faucet into this stone bowl. I think there a charcoal filter too Food - Everything was Fresh Oysters 🦪- Typical Kussi +Lucky Lime on the smaller size but tasty. In house hot sauce had a kick slightly smokier + less sour than boring tobacco. Mignonette was nice too! Godzilla Prawns - just the right amount of batter crunchy yet light. Quality prawn had a springiness to it like a mini lobster tail. Served w Spicy Mayo sauce + some black Tobiko Kara-gee- I typical don’t eat dark meat because it usually filled with tendons/Sticky/faint earthiness. Bestie + I both impressed w this dish. “Super clean”well marinated almost Tasted like white meat but juicy. Lightly battered super crispy just the right size. Sashimi Platter - Good value everything was fresh presentation was neat w / dry ice. Serve w in-house blended soya sauce slightly sweeter so not your typical salty Kikoman. Great portion the scallops were full sized I appreciate this!😍 Fries - McDonald fries w grated parm + herbs. Truffle aioli was boom. We’ll definitely come back + try more dishes!

    Wagyu sliders are what dreams are made of & the Brussel sprouts are also amazing! Oysters were buck a shuck and seemed like they may have been sitting out for a bit due to the promotion, but still amazing value.

    Date night with my wife - amazing experience. Vibe is great, but the service and food are impeccable. Check your coat for free which is a nice touch. The Wagyu sliders are so flavorful, but everything else was as well. Happy hour drinks were amazing too. The Godzilla Tails (tempura shrimp) felt like you were punched in the face with flavour. So good. The quantity is very reasonable which makes you able to try many of the different items without getting too stuffed, but still very satisfied. We got 6-7 dishes and shared them all. Overall 10/10

    I didn’t even stay to eat here. The table was sooooo small for just the two of us. The chairs were stools with no backing. Very uncomfortable. I am allergic to gluten and was told I could only eat oysters and plain fries. That’s it! I asked if anything could by modified or taken out to make it gluten friendly and was told no, they don’t modify anything on the menu. So unfortunately my friend and I left and went across the street to the keg where they have lots of gluten friendly options.

    We came for new years and had a great experience. The restaurant is nicely decorated and feels like something you’d find in downtown not a plaza in Vaughan. The servers were all super friendly and service was quick. Drinks were excellent with a a lot of variety to choose from and great prices. They also have $2 pints for happy hour which is insane. Food was overall very good. The gyudon, karaage, and short ribs were amazing and must orders! Also loved the milk punch and lychee martini for drinks. Would definitely come back!
