The restaurant is upstairs in a row home. When you first walk in, there is an small waiting area to sit with two bar sections. The bar in the front of the house is reserved for sushi omakase and the bar in the back of the house is reserved for tempura omakase. Music was composed of light jazz which allowed for silent reflection with each dish while also engaging conversation with company. All ingredients for the meal were imported from Japan. Tempura Omakase was $195 CAD and consists of a 5-pieces sashimi, 7-courses of different Japanese seafood tempura, a fruit aperitif, 4-course vegetable tempura, and a dessert. The tempura came with a choice of 4 sauces - lightly salted dried garlic, matcha salt, kombu salt, and tentsuyu (tempura sauce). The chef will recommend which sauce accompanies the current ingredient. The pairing did not disappoint. As an added bonus, the chef may throw in an extra dish that he is piloting. In my case, he threw in a stuffed shiitake mushroom that was filled with sashimi. Pro-tip: if you pay with cash, you get a 15% discount. (NOTE: Please pay the full amount so that the deserving staff could make a decent living.) Overall impression: I did not know that tempura could be so luxurious and tastes so decadent. This was the epitome of Japanese cuisine - careful thought and attention that maximizes the experience of each ingredient. This experience has changed the way I view tempura. This was aided by how funny and charismatic the chef was. 10/10 experience. I will always come back when visiting Toronto.

So glad to be able to enjoy the authentic tempura omakase in Toronto which tasted just like in Japan! Food ingredients are fresh, and the batter were so thin yet crispy. Love this place!! Already booked my next visit.

Omakase is not that common in Toronto, but most of them focus on sushi. This is where Edomae Kiyomi differentiates. They offer an omakase meal built around their exquisite tempura dishes! The exterior and interior of the restaurant is understated, and it helps accentuate the food and its preparation. We had the tempura meals and they were exquisite and outstanding. The two chefs were courteous and informative. The creations were unique and extraordinary. It is an experience well worth your time.

I think it is one of the best in Toronto in terms of tempura omakase, although it still cannot compared to the top class tempura restaurants in Japan. The course is not expensive and service is good! Appreciate the owner brings this experience all the way to toronto. Next time I will try the sushi omakase.

Was a great intimate experience. Chef was attentive and friendly. Interior reminds me of Yasu (light and bright). We had the tempura omakase, was good but would’ve like the batter to be more fluffy and lighter. The uni was excellent. Would go back but infrequent.
