Best Japanese Restaurants in Casa Loma

We always enjoy our time at Tono! Both the food and service are fantastic. Every dish we try is crafted with meticulous culinary design and bursting with bold flavours and quality ingredients. We can highly recommend both the chicken and short rib mains, they are incredible. As for apps, try the spicy tuna or crab tacos, wagyu robata or our favourite…the Jumbo prawn dynamite. The only caution I would provide is that the noise levels (especially during the weekends) are fairly high….so, if you prefer a more intimate and less boisterous venue, I would recommend dining here on a weekday evening. Either way…you will definitely enjoy your time here!

It was delicious food, amazing service (the server brought us free prosecco to celebrate our friends’ engagement), and very reasonable prices for the portion sizes!!

Randy was our server last night and he made the experience 100 times more enjoyable. Great service and energy from him. 100% will come back!

Great service, Beautiful Space. I really enjoyed the Chef’s Sushi selection.

I chose to come to Akira Back for my birthday dinner and I could not have made a better choice. From the moment you arrive to the Bisha Hotel and walk through the doors to Akira Back, you know you are going to have a unique experience. Walking into the restaurant, the decor and setting transform you into an underwater cave. The setting is elegant, sexy, and immersive. The music is high enough to hear and enjoy yet quiet enough to converse over with your party comfortably. Speaking on the food now, anything you order takes you on a true culinary journey between the presentation and the taste itself. This is not a restaurant where you walk in, order an appetizer, and then eventually a large main dish. This is a restaurant where you order multiple small dishes, each one unique to itself, with its own flavors, own presentation, and own story. You get to try multiple things and truly experience many amazing dishes. Some favorites are the waygu tacos, waygu fried rice, tuna/mushroom pizza, and the crispy rice. What truly make this restaurant stand out though, is the hospitality of the staff to their guests. It’s a true gift to have delicious food and service where the staff care about your experience throughout your time with them. Of the staff, I would like to speak on Engin, the bartender. It’s not often that a bar tender impresses you through the dinner. From the moment we walked in, Engin greeted us with a big warm smile and took care of us at the bar. He guided us through the menu, helping us pick the best possible dishes to have through the night while preparing delicious drinks for us simultaneously. Engin’s interaction did not just stop there; he would speak to us and make conversation, laugh, and ask questions making us feel comfortable and welcomed there. Engin’s guidance and knowledge of the menu continued through to dessert and we got the delicious signature chocolate cigar! I recommend Akira Back to anyone looking to have a unique, delicious dining experience
