I particularly enjoyed the fish pieces, which were quite unique. The assortment of tempura was served hot and wrapped in a crispy batter. The dipping sauce had a rich depth of flavor, enhanced by bonito flakes and a touch of shishitake. While I found the meal enjoyable, it wasn’t astonishing compared to other tempura experiences I've had. Overall, it was a decent meal, but it didn't quite stand out as much as I had hoped.

Next time, I might go for a custom bowl since I’m not a fan of some of the seafood and sweet options, but overall, it was a great experience!

Regarding the tendon, it should be served separately from any standard garnishes or other tempuras; it really ought to be fresh and made to order. The tempura was decent—definitely hot and freshly fried—but it may have been cooked at a higher temperature towards the end of the night, and it wasn't as tender as I've experienced in other places. The rice was well-cooked, but the sauce was a bit too sweet or overdone for my taste. Overall, it's a good meal, and not many places do tempura well in Toronto.

I had Asakusa tendon. Tempura was not crispy but not soggy. But i wish they could make it crispier. Also missing a dish to hold tempura since it is hard to eat... read more I had Asakusa tendon. Tempura was not crispy but not soggy. But i wish they could make it crispier. Also missing a dish to hold tempura since it is hard to eat with only bowl given. Overall it was not bad and amount of food given was enough.
