Quality sushi around Yonge/Bloor (not quite omakase but definitely elevated from your 2 for 1 california rolls) with authentic and hard to find Japanese foods. Quality, type of fish, and size of nigiri is obviously less than other omakase restaurants around the neighbourhood, but they serve premium sushi as well as your classic rolls, as well as interesting authentic Japanese menu items that make it similar to a combination of Shunoko and Koyoi.
Premium sushi set ($48), 10 nigiri, 6 negitoro maki. This set seems to only be
available via Door Dash/Uber Eats, as I couldn't find it on their normal menu. Nigiri includes the akami, chu-toro, o-toro, red snapper, uni, ikura, and a variety of other fish. Very reasonable for the price compared to the other options in the area. Floral decorations and seemingly fresh grated wasabi definitely elevated the whole experience.
Anago (salt water eel) side order ($10): This is one of my favourite nigiri; it wasn't warm like when you dine in, but it was still soft, fresh, and delicious!
Ankimo, Monkfish liver ($9): Hard to find at other Japanese restaurants, creamy and salty but firm.
Maguro with natto ($12): Again, natto is a hard find; perhaps only at places like Koyoi. I think you were supposed to eat this with rice, but we found that we had to add a touch of soy sauce as we mixed everything together - the novelty of it made it interesting but not sure if I would order again (though perhaps we just aren't used to eating natto!)
Kurage, Jellyfish ($6): light, refreshing, tasty and salty! The imitation shark fin was a bit firm and the jellyfish was a bit scant, but it was still delicious and very pretty, and the novelty of it made it a great experience!
Pick up experience was quick and simple at the entrance, order was prepared a bit ahead of schedule, packaging was pretty as well! I also appreciated that the Uber Eats/Door Dash menu prices were the same as their actual menu, though we did do pick-up. Would love to dine-in again once everything opens up!
