Yasu is Canada's first Omakase sushi bar. We celebrates the ocean’s best catches and the craft of sushi in its award-winning Toronto eatery; dishes created by Executive Chef and Owner Yasu Ouchi from Osaka, Japan. There is only one menu at Yasu; Omakase style (chef's choice set course) at $185 per person, a Japanese tradition wherein Chef Yasu creates a new menu daily based on the freshest and seasonal seafood available from around the world. The Omakase course consists of approximately 20 items including a kaiseki plate, soup,
​selection of seasonal nigiri and dessert. . ​​​An 18% service fee will be added to each bill. Any further tipping or gratuity is not expected. We look forward to hosting you!​

    Our experience at Yasu was incredibly disappointing. We had a 6:30 PM reservation, arrived 30 minutes late, and called ahead to inform them. From the moment we sat down, the service felt rushed and impersonal. We were expecting a proper omakase experience. However, towards the end, they piled multiple courses onto our plates at once—completely ruining the entire experience. My partner ordered a bottle of sake, and 30 minutes later, the server suddenly told us, “We have another seating at 8:00.” I expressed my concerns respectfully, yet we never received an apology—just an offer to move to another table. We stayed until 9:20 PM, and only 2 other guests showed up for the so-called “next seating.” So why the unnecessary rush?? For the price and reputation, we expected a thoughtful, unhurried omakase experience like at other top spots in Toronto. Instead, it was transactional, rushed, and lacking basic hospitality. Won’t be returning FOR sure.

    We greatly enjoyed sushi and five kinds of pairing sake. The portion of food was good, and the timing of serving was also good.
