Chef-owner Shigeo Kimura opened his Toronto restaurant more than 20 years ago, and to the delight of local sushi fanciers he expanded to Québec in 2005. The two-level restaurant has several distinct dining spaces. At the sushi bar, order the omakase – the chef prepares a variety of incredible sushi and sashimi for you, some of which is not on the regular menu. At the sake bar it's customary to order izakaya, small portions of tasty tapas-like tidbits designed to complement beer and sake. If you have children dining with you, opt for the teppan yaki room upstairs, where a chef skillfully and acrobatically prepares a multi-course meal right at the grill table in front of you. Most of the menu is served throughout the restaurant which is great when you want sushi but your companions want donburi or another cooked dish. One thing's for sure – no one should leave Ginko hungry!
