Izakaya popolari a North York / Don Mills

First time for my group of 8, got to share many dishes, loved the sashimi sampler, Aburi chef's selection, beef short ribs, grilled fish neck; but top favorite has to be the grilled octopus, carbonara udon, kinoko cheese bibimbap (did a repeat on this one). Excellent service, lively ambience but can talk comfortably. Highly recommend.

Delicious food, reasonable prices, and helpful staff! We were drooling over every bite of our dinner!

Please please pls bring back absolute favourite dishes like the udon carbonara, ikipiri and vindara (crispy miso cod). They are why I like to go back time and again the last 10+ yrs. Oh also, the front room is cold, could use more heating. Huge thx!

We were pleasantly surprised with our experience. Good quality sashimi and delicious torched sushi. I would also recommend the beef curry bibimbap, served in sizzling stone which gave the rice a great crunch. I would definitely come back again.

We had a fantastic night here! The staff were very accommodating of our large group. They recommended taking over the ordering for us and did an amazing job on the menu (also much less stressful for everyone than trying to organize 12 people’s small plates orders!) A proper izakaya experience and everything was delicious. Would go back any day :)
