Wako sushi Toronto — Restaurant in Toronto

I would give 0 star but 1 is the lowest you can give. This is one of the Korean sushi place where pretend that Japanese. I'm a Korean so I've been to many other similar places and this one was so terrible that I told them, I can't pay full price. I ordered Fluke combo set, which comes with many appetizers. However, they didn't serve us at all more than 50 minutes. All 3 appetizers came same time and the fried Tofu tasted weird. It was clear later that they served spoiled Tofu. The Fluke Sashimi was good but they didn't bring soy sauce tray until we asked so we had to just watch it for a while. Again, they took long time to bring seafood stew and they weren't busy at that time. They served pickled radish but it was so salty! If they serve you, don't touch that! Asked to refill tea and they forgot so we had to asked them again and again. When they filled tea, it wasn't tea, just hot water. It was clear that Tofu in the seafood stew gone bad so we pointed it out to the waitress, she took it back and we didn't know what she was going to do with it. When we asked her, she said, I thought you were done with it??? She offered to prepare it again after checking Tofu but we lost appetite at that point. I said, don't bother just give me the bill but not going to pay full price. No surprise, again, it took long time to get my bill and they discounted about $25. When we asked to speak to the owner or manager, she said he is busy at the back but later she said he isn't there at all??? Terrible service. They never bother to check with us so we had to find them and ask. If you want to waste your hard earn money there, go ahead but not...

I came here by myself casually since my building had a power outage and I had no microwave/stove to cook on. I ordered the sashimi lunch special (picture below). It was absolutely delightful and surprisingly filling. Midway I also ordered a lobster roll (which I didn’t get a photo of) but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be ordering that again. It was very saucy and the taste of lobster was lost. For the price, I’d prefer to taste the ingredient. Also, I’ve included a photo where a piece of sushi roll was overloaded with rice and almost no other ingredients, including lobster. I appreciate it when the rice is not too thick and thus I didn’t enjoy it very much. I almost left the rest of the roll on the counter but it’s a bit pricey to be wasting on a casual lunch out. The music is a nice modern up beat piano. The waitress was nice and attentive. I even dropped one chopstick mid way and before I was able to pick it up, she was there with a new pair for me. Also, the clearish white sashimi in between the salmon was the only fishy tasting sashimi. All the rest were clearly fresh and melt in your mouth. This is the first time I’ve had fishy sashimi here. Needless to say it wasn’t as pleasant to eat but I don’t know if that is the fault of the restaurant or if it is a quality of the fish itself. For me, the salmon was like butter and that’s really the one I enjoy the most personally. I will be returning for the same...

Not as impressed as the other reviews on this site but I can see why many enjoy this cute place. The staff are friendly but the my experience had me second guess the communication in this establishment. I had to send back my order as I was misinformed by my waiter as to what I wanted. Where I was then blamed for the mistake which the kitchen now had to fix. Luckily is was slow around the time i went and there was only 4 other guest in the reso at the time. By sheer luck the night staff that was clocking in handled my dilemma as I watched my serve walk out the door without a care in the world. I was put off by this but I'm not surprised this late in the game to find customer service this sad in this industry. What came back to my table was what really disappointed me; my order was corrected but with such a disgusting reflection of the cooks attitude towards his customers and the mistake his staff made. The tuna roll sent back me was cut so close if not from the bloodline of the tuna belly itself and served to me with a smile. Welp it is as is and I was as I was; hungry; so i ate it not without first taking a picture which i hope everyone will not enjoy as much as i did. Please be careful as a customer not every serve is trained and not every cook is in love with...
