    Great experience and the service was phenomenal. Our waiter Jeff was superb and made the evening memorable. The food was delicious, but maybe a bit overpriced. However, everywhere is expensive these days. The restaurant itself was beautiful and the ambiance really helped make it feel special.

    Feel good ambiance. Tho I found the menu a bit limited with options especially when as a group we would of prefer more groupe options instead of ordering often.

    Food is great, service was a bit slow but it was busy. Noise levels were high but it would be expected on a Sunday Night and with sake bombs on the menu. Will be going back!

We are sorry to hear about your last experience, but we ask you to understand we cannot do about the sound since we are a small-medium restaurant and on Thursday to Sunday, those are the busier days.

The staff was attentive and friendly, making the dining experience memorable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for delicious sushi and great service!

    Could only book a high-top table but fortunately, we were given an actual table, so we were off to a good start. Service was friendly and prompt. Food was very fresh and tasty. Weren't crazy on the dessert options, but we went for sushi, so that was fine. Going back in two weeks. Recommended.

    We had a wonderful experience at Kyo on a Monday night. Only made our reservations a couple hours beforehand and only option was at the bar (for 2). But it turned out to be excellent option - bartender was very social and entertaining. Learned a few new cocktail recipes in the process. If the doughnuts are still on menu for dessert when you go - they’re a must!

    Booked a table at the bar assuming it meant sushi bar. No mention I had to be 18+ then or when reservation was confirmed. However when we arrived the host began telling me I should have known that my teenager couldn’t sit at bar. (Incidentally same child has eaten at the bar numerous times but I also did assume it meant sushi bar) the host and manager told me there was nothing they could do to accommodate me. I said we had just driven 6 hours and had really looked forward to dinner there. After a lot of begging they sat us a communal table and told us to eat quickly as they only could seat us for 45 minutes. Food was pretty good but the host and manager were very rude.

    Étions assis au bar. Excellent service reçu par Tony le mixologue. Ils nous a offert deux shooters et préparer des cocktails savoureux. Ambiance des plus cordiales. Nourriture savoureuse était savoureuse, de qualité et servi juste à temps un plat après l'autre sans tous les avoir en même temps, petit détail qui fait toute une différence.
