    Chef Corona and his team provide an excellent dining experience with quality ingredients and imaginative recipes. My family celebrated a birthday and the food, service and ambience did not disappoint. In fact we all felt it was one is the best meals we’ve enjoyed in Toronto. The Michelin Star is well-earned. We had the a la carte dinner in which you will find ample variety to suit your tastes. From the mains, the wagyu was very good and the lobster, also amazing. If you have a larger party (we had a table for 6), you might get one of two chef’s table situated in front of the open kitchen. It was an extra treat to watch the Chef and team bring the dishes to life! We recommend and will surely revisit.

    Top to bottom 5 star experience. Service was causal, warm and attentive. We ordered the hansang (basically chef's choice) and felt it was an incredible value at $135 pp. There were 4 different cuts of meat included (iberico pork, aged striploin, marinated galbi, A5 waygu) and they were incredibly delicious when eaten alone or with the plethora of banchan. The meat was expertly grilled and served with care, a real dining treat to be so hands off during a KBBQ experience. All the ingredients and accompaniments were top quality. The space itself is not large, and we really appreciated not being rushed due to quick reservation turnovers. Highly recommend for a special occasion, will definitely be returning!

    Incredible! From start to finish, we loved our meal! We had a dozen fresh and meaty oysters, a few cocktails, and for dinner I had the trumpet mushroom dish, and my partner had the pork collar. We loved the meal so much that we got both desserts! We will be back soon!
