Great ingredients, my favorite sea urchin, fresh and plenty of it, and the waiter brought me a birthday cake, they were great! Wonderful service! I also liked the decor of the restaurant, lots of shochu bottles along the wall, typical Japanese style. It was just a little cold sitting at the door. Anyway, I like how quickly they serve the food!
Great experience. We came here for lunch and tried a lot of different dishes. Everyone was happy with their order. Servers were attentive. They remembered who ordered what, even topped up water without being asked. Food quality and quantity were good for the price they charge! Will definitely come back again.
This is a great Japanese restaurant. The sushi was fresh and good quality. There’s a wide variety of food on the menu, from sushi to sashimi to veggie friendly. It was a busy place though it was late at night. I think this restaurant is popular in the Scarborough area. Pricey but it’s worth every penny spent. Highly recommended.
This was one of the best sushi spots in Toronto! Amazing food! GREAT SERVICE! I wasn’t even hungry and I inhaled my food!!! That’s how good it was! Dessert was also on the house btw! I never knew grapefruit ice cream existed let alone how delicious it is! The decor is stunning, such an exciting and fun vibe! See
Delicious high quality and fresh sashimi and sushi. Highly recommend there unique rolls. They were super delicious. I would literally come back just for these rolls! Sashimi was also cut thick which I personally like. Service was good. Also, highly recommend making a reservation as they get busy.
The first time I went to Aka-Oni I decided to purchase the VIP card because I knew I would be coming back!! The fish was very fresh and everything tasted very unique and the best sushi I’ve ever had. I tried the lunch special after, which I thought it didn’t taste as good as the first time I went which was at dinner time. I suspect that they use better quality fish for the non lunch special items.
If you appreciate good food, you NEED to visit this place. I wish I knew about this restaurant sooner cause WOW was I missing out! My friends and I ordered a bunch of dishes and EACH DISH DID NOT DISAPPOINT. All very beautifully presented and the taste of each dish is SO good, you don't want to share lol. The chef and cooks clearly know what they're doing and are very experienced in the type of quality in taste and presentation they want to deliver to their customers. To enhance the experience of our visit, each booth had their own shoji screens which made it feel more authentic and a unique experience different from other Izakaya spots. I truly wish this restaurant more success and recognition because you can clearly taste just how passionate the chef and cooks are about the food they create and present.
@akaoniizakaya This Lobster Don $25.99 was just divine. Chunks of grilled lobster Shimeji mushrooms & corn in their Devil sauce which was aromatic and buttery. Tasted so good …. Will definitely go back for this. We also had the dynamite roll. Beautiful presentation and generous sized pieces of sushi. The Tempura appetizer came with 2 large sized prawns and the batter was light and crispy and came with tempura veggies. Will be back soon!!
Impressed by the fresh sashimi and delightful appetizer! The Egg White topping cocktail is highly recommend! Must go there again! Also efficient and great service too!
Truly wowed by this place. I never had raw octopus before and was hesitant it be too fishy tasting but wow- it was one of my favourite dishes of the night! I also really loved the ‘black diamond’ sushi. Incredible food and wonderful service!
