Okeya Kyujiro: Award-winning omakase restaurant to open Toronto location
An over-the-top sushi restaurant is opening its first Toronto location this year, and eating there will be quite the experience.
Okeya Kyujiro is a self-described “theatrical omakase experience,” with locations, or theatres as they call them, in Montreal and Vancouver, and is about to expand to Ontario by opening its first Toronto location.
The experience, which is part-meal and part-performance, has earned the Vancouver location a Michelin star, and is strictly reservation only, asking guests to arrive 10 to 15 minutes ahead of time to avoid delaying the meal.
The omakase is constantly evolving, featuring seasonal fish and flavours from all around the world, while offering “multi-sensory entertainment,” like music, a tea ceremony and the chefs on full display for the duration of the meal.
Many details of the restaurant’s opening in the city have yet to be announced, and a representative from the restaurant toldĀ blogTO that there is not a firm opening date set for the restaurant yet.
For those waiting on bated breath for the sushi experience to arrive in Toronto, keep your eyes trained on Okeya Kyujiro’s Instagram account, where it will announce all of the details once it’s ready.
If you simply can’t wait to try omakase, not to fear ā there are plenty of amazing restaurants that offer omakase-style mealsĀ in the city that will satisfy your cravings.
