Shizuku

I have been here over five times and I can say it is, hands down, the best omakase in the GTA. Get the Shizuku menu - you won’t be disappointed.

My first omakase experience: it was amazing. I knew it would be great in every way, but I didn't know what to expect. I was blown away by the delicious food, calming decor, and super friendly and lovely staff who put up with my impromptu sashimi quiz lol. My sister and I ended up adding 3 courses for a total of 21, and we were so full afterwards. And because our time slot was the final one of the day at 8:30pm, we were able to stay past the two hour mark and not have to worry that the next batch of customers would arrive. (On that note, make sure you arrive basically just on time. We came early and the doors were still locked for the time slot before us. If you come late, you kind of ruin the tempo of the omakase for the other customers and the chef). I love the idea of omakase because I get to try things I would never order myself. We had shirako, which I've only ever seen online and it looks like a brain, but it was honesty not so bad. I realized that some sashimi that I normally don't like at regular Japanese restaurants aren't actually bad, but it's just that I've never had them at such a high quality before. It's like saying you don't like fried chicken bc you've been eating super greasy and soggy ones all your life without realizing it. Anyway, this was honestly one of the most unique experiences I've ever had, and I'm so glad I finally got to try it. It's a great place to go for a special occasion.

Celebrated a birthday here and had a great time. Our host was fun and engaging. The chef and his assistant were also very engaging giving they place a great atmosphere. The food had a lot of variety with unique little details which I loved. Would recommend and would come back

Was there on a Thursday for the $190 Omakase course and was full by the time we were done. Fresh fish with really good Sake pairing described fully by the amazing waitress. Really amazing service...well worth trying...also special crab menu coming up.

The sushi were very high quality. Fish was cut very thick with just the right amount of rice. They had many types of uni for us to try. The appetizers served before the sushi were delicious. We were very satisfied overall.

We were amazed by our experience at Shizuku! It was our first time having omakase & it was a great introduction. The menu was well thought out & had a great mix of different textures and flavours. It was such a treat trying food we’ve had before at a premium quality. I’m also really happy I got to try roe and uni for the first time. My favourites were the crisp on the tilefish, the brightness of the roe, & tenderness of the firefly squid & tiger prawn! The chef was informative & mindful of different preferences. Service was incredibly friendly & top notch! The restaurant has a clean & calm atmosphere, with great table setting & dinnerware. We had the shizuku experience with yuzu sake for our anniversary. At the end, they gave us a little menu with the dishes, the date, and a greeting for our anniversary which was so adorable. We would definitely celebrate another special occasion at Shizuku! Thank you Shizuku team!

Had a great experience at Shizuku, came with the wife and we both loved it. Food was great, the server was incredibly smart and responsive topping off water throughout the night and offering great selections of Sake. The chef did an amazing job selecting the options, come with an open mind as you’ll probably eat something you’ve never had before!
