SAKANA HOUSE REVIEWS

They have many food options to choose from compared to other Japanese restaurants. We enjoyed and savored the food. Would definitely go back again. We paid cash and have discount by doing so. Almost 40 dollars per person for dinner time on weekends, but worth it. All the food we ordered were eaten and nothing was wasted. Free parking. All you can eat restaurant.

From the moment we got here we felt so cared for. They welcomed us then asked if we had any food allergies. Every staff member made great eye contact, they were attentive. Our plates left the table as soon as they were empty and no one ever hovered. They are beyond efficient and it's like witchcraft.

Winnie was absolutely amazing. She was so polite and treated my friend and I with so much kindness while we were there. She was at our table every couple minutes to make sure everything was well! Highly recommended her and this restaurant :).

KINO SUSHI & IZAKAYA REVIEWS

This is the best service I have ever experienced. The waiters are very friendly and patient towards people, which is a service that other places cannot enjoy. The food is delicious and dry ice is particularly interesting. The sushi is also very fresh, and I would like to come back to eat again.

This was my first visit here and I love it! I’ve got a new favourite sushi place! The food is fresh and the presentation great. It seems to have just a little more flavour than “the other guys”. The service is fantastic. The food comes quickly and hot (when it’s supposed to be) and the empty plates disappear quickly. Everyone smiles and is so friendly. We’ll definitely be back.

The Kino sushi restaurant has a cozy atmosphere. The interior is quite clean, there is no unpleasant smell and it has a good service. As for the food, I can say that it is delicious, inexpensive and its serving pleases the eye. Of the dishes, I can mention "Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box", "Beef Udon Soup", "Miso Soup" and "Party Tray". If you are a sushi fan, you should like it.

KENZO RAMEN REVIEWS

We had never been before and decided to stop in. It was busy so we had to wait for a table but 100% totally worth it! The waitress was pleasant and the food came out quick and hot. We had two different Ramen bowls and both were absolutely delicious!! 10/10 would recommend.

My experience at Kenzo ramen was great!!! I went there to have a peaceful lunch on a snowy day. I got the best place to sit. AMY was my server. She has really good customer service skill. She was very patient while explaining ingredients and what could be beat for someone trying for the first time. She deserves an appreciation.

Wow! We are so lucky to have such an awesome Ramen restaurant in Barrie! It was delicious and even better then the ramen I've had in Ottawa. They also have great tasty vegetarian options. Looking forward to my next visit.
