As always, the food was delicious and the service on point! Its often hard to find consistency in food offerings at restaurants but that is not the case here. Have been a half dozen times in the past year and never disappointed.

Visited KINKA with my 12 year old daughter. We had a great time! The staff was sooo nice and helpful. Food was good and flavourful. We had the kimchi udon, octopus balls, salmon sashimi, miso soup, edamame and black sesame ice cream. When the waitress heard it was my daughter’s birthday, she brought her a matcha cheesecake with icecream at the end of the meal, which made her day. It was an amazing experience and we’ll definitely come back next time we’re in Toronto 😊

Great place for dining and for groups. The entire dinner experience was amazing. It met past any expectations I had. The staff was fun and friendly too. It was a pleasure to eat there and hopefully will do so again when in Toronto again.
