MSSM Yorkville

AMAZING!!! Loved it so much. Had an amazing Valentine’s Day dinner date here. Our Chef was very knowledgeable, respectful and kind. Was attentive to all of our questions. Already made another reservation for next week to bring some more friends! The restaurant was really cute and had some great music. Thanks so much for the good vibes and spectacular food. Also, the sake flight was delicious.

As much as I love Japanese food. I very seldomly visit a omakase restaurant because I do not like the texture of raw fish. What made me go to this particular restaurant is because of my mom. Once you get inside, there is a flight of stairs. The ambiance from when you open the door leaving the hustle and bustle of cars and chatters behind the door flows into the second floor dining area. Once you’re up on the second floor you quickly notice the wall mural, a large sushi bar, the space is bright, clean and inviting. We were brought to our seat by the hostess. The sushi chef introduced us to the menu. We were allowed to make small adjustments ie. trade unagi for tuna. As for myself, I do not eat raw fish so I requests for two things: no unagi, and torch every piece of fish. The chef was very accommodating and did just that. I traded the unagi for a second serving of Chawanmushi. I was so happy that I got to experience omakase. Even though the fish was cooked for me, I can still taste the freshness. As for the sushi rice - it was mixed well with the perfect amount of rice vinegar. It was truly an enjoyable experience. The dish I enjoyed the most was the Chawanmushi. I also like that the price for lunch and dinner are the same. Even though they do not serve sashimi, they still give us premium fish like Toro in hand roll form. I would definitely dine here again.

Tried the Omakase here solo and it was great, the sushi tasted fresh and the service was amazing. My end of the table was served by Chef H (I think), and he was very friendly and explained the meal every step of the way. My favourite was the scallop sushi. The servers are super friendly and attentive, they were moving around all through the dinner service and I commend them. Amazing dinner experience so far.

Food was really good and very tasty. Our chef was exceptional and prepared the food to perfection. The only set back is that we weren't very full at the end of the experience. I would have liked a few more courses for the price point of $100. It really was only 8 pieces of nigri, a cup of miso soup, 2 pieces of squid and a couple small bite size portions of egg appetizers. I'm not sure if all this is worth the price.

fish was very fresh, perfectly seasoned sushi rice & each nigiri piece was melt in your mouth amazing! atmosphere & music was on point. Jon provided exceptional service and our chef Phil was absolutely the best!

Omakase at $98. Service was good, chef was friendly and knowledgeable. Atmosphere was also really nice. However the seating wasn’t my favourite as the high chairs weren’t super comfortable, but other than that I had a good time.

Heard really amazing things about this omakase experience so I brought my mom here for her birthday. Joshua, our chef, was amazing; he explained every dish in detail and consistently engaged in conversation. Josh checked up on us regarding spice tolerance and the amount of rice. The fish was fresh, and you could tell that it was quite premium. However, every course came out one after another. It was very fast-paced, and I found it difficult to keep up with. We felt very rushed and everything was served within the hour. Once all the courses were done, the server immediately came up to our table, urging us to pay the bill. Mind you, we have a 90-minute seating limit. I've been to many omakase restaurants and although the fish was good, I don't think I'd come back.
