Restaurant Shogun

Tasteless. I have no idea how this restaurant has 4.2 stars (182 ratings), it's unbelievable. The Age Dashi tofu was covered with a thick (fried-chicken like) breading instead of a nice light batter that just melts in your mouth like it should. The tofu inside was flavourless too. The Tempura Shrimp was covered in a "fish and chip" type batter, also bland. It was served with some veggies with that same batter, which included undercooked sweet potatoes, and others, all dull. The orange beef consisted of: chewy beef, raw-tasting veggies, overly sour (and probably store bought) orange sauce and unsalted rice. We returned it to the kitchen because it was not edible. They offered to replace it but we didn't want to risk wasting more food. At that point we asked if it was too late to cancel the makis we ordered because we weren't looking forward to trying a (most likely) other failed item on the menu. It turned out to be too late so we tried it and it was passable, at best. I'm a huge foodie and am always open to trying new restaurants from different cuisines and discover new flavours and ingredients, whether it's from a hidden gem that charges almost nothing for amazing food or in a renowned fine dining restaurant where pricing is higher. As long as the food is good, I don't mind. This was so disappointing and I will never go there again nor recommend it.

Great find! We had the full choix du chef and it did not disappoint. Scallop tartare with basil and strawberry dressing is one of the best things I've ever eaten. I highly recommend it!

Felt like the restaurant took itself too seriously. Waitress left in the middle of our order to assist other customers (first time I've felt like it was French speaking preference). Food was alright, can get the same quality anywhere. Dont go out of your way.

I'm sure this place would (not) have been epic but they purposely cancelled our reservation because they wanted to host a bigger group. We reserved 2 weeks prior and even called the day before to confirm. This was a family and friends dinner for my friends wedding. They were snobby with us and even had out names crossed out on the reservation list. But you know who was awesome, Restaurant Soria right across the street. They hooked us up with seating for our party right away and the food was great.
