I finally got the chance to visit Yokai Izakaya, a place I’ve been wanting to try ever since they opened their doors. Yokai Izakaya offers a delightful fusion of Japanese dishes, all designed to be shared among friends. They also have an impressive selection of cocktails. I went with my girlfriends since we were in the area, and it was an unforgettable experience for all of us. The ambiance is lively and inviting, making it a great spot for a fun night out! We ordered their crispy ume Brussels sprouts, oysters, hamachi ceviche, lobster & shrimp tacos and wagyu sliders. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! The oysters and hamachi ceviche were incredibly fresh. The lobster and shrimp tacos were bursting with flavor, layering each bite with taste. The crispy Ume Brussels sprouts were seasoned to perfection. The only thing we didn’t particularly enjoy was the wagyu slider. We felt it could have been cooked for a bit longer.

🌞This is a great fusion Japanese eatery worth visiting for its super delicious food and the ambience. 🌞We had a small issue with our reservation when we were informed there has been a double booking from online customers and so we wnt get our hour and half but just an hour.But after the initial hiccups the issue was sorted out eventually. 🌞Make sure to visit for the weekend brunch. 🌞 Recommended dishes : 1)Lobster 🦞 tacos - extremely flavourful and you will appreciate the layers of flavour 2) Yokai big breakfast 3) Butter prawn Florentine 🌞You can also take advantage of the $8 priced apps during dinner menu on lucky Monday

Amazing customer experience. The food and cocktail offerings were spectacular. Some cool photos attached, but they don’t do enough justice. By far the service was over the top and memorable. Nina, our server was on point. Her smiling face, great attitude and spot on recommendations. We definitely will be returning customers. Thank you Nina!

Yokai Izakaya offers a modern and sophisticated dining experience that stands out. The fusion of Japanese flavors is not only rich and delicious but also presented in a unique and artistic way. Each dish feels like a work of art, making the dining experience even more special. The flavors were new to me, but the combination of textures and tastes was truly impressive. If you’re looking for a fresh take on Japanese cuisine with beautifully presented dishes, Yokai Izakaya is a must-try!

This Izakaya is my go-to spot whenever I’m in Vaughan, whether it’s for a date or a group gathering with friends. The location is convenient, the food is fantastic, the vibes are cool, and the staff is always amazing. We booked a table for 5 on a busy Sunday night but showed up with an extra 4 people. Despite the crowd, they went out of their way to accommodate us, which was really impressive. To top it off, they surprised two of my birthday friends with complimentary desserts without us even asking! Big thanks to Chris and the whole team for making our night so great, as always!

Came here for brunch, the staff are friendly and attentive while the food is amazing! Wagyu and eggs were soft and well-seasoned, plus their fries are actually pretty good. Definitely recommend for a good meal. The store itself is rather nice as well, even their washrooms were lovely 😳

First time at Yokai Izakaya last night and it was an incredible experience. The food and service was fantastic. Our server was Gabriel and he was so nice and efficient. We did the full tasting menu for $80 monday special and it did not disappoint. The menu says serves 2-4 people but i'd say its more for 2 people if you're looking to get full just off of the $80 tasting menu. If this is an appetizer for you then yes it'll serve 4 people. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because the space itself was very small and not much room to get to your table or bathroom. You're kind of squeezing by other tables and sitting pretty close to others. Other than that, it was a fantastic time and we'd 1000% be back!
