Yamato Japanese Restaurant

First of all, there are two sides to the restaurant, and the entrance is on the Sushi side. If you are coming for Teppanyaki and have no reservation, you need to specifically tell them that you are there for Teppanyaki. I still highly recommend that you make reservation. Next, as expected in the Bloor-Yonge area, parking is extremely limited. You can either try your luck and drive around, or just go straight to the Green P in Yorkville Ave.
Once you are seated (but your group is not big enough), you kind of have to wait a little until your table is full, and again for the chef.
Now, the service was amazing, and the food was pretty good. It was very interesting that (almost) everything has Wasabi Icecream in it. The fried rice was quite a bit more expensive, $8 extra I believe, but I would recommend that at least one person in the group try it.

Lobster Place

This place offers a variety of seafoods, I had to try to lobster because of its name. There is quite a bit of bar style seating but it may get difficult to find a seat. The lobster was amazing, but as with any shellfish, it can get messy. They provide a small prepackaged wet tissue, but it may be a good idea to bring your own set of disposable gloves.

This famous jazz club is a must-visit place with great performances. However, keep in mind that it runs on an extremely tight schedule. Not only do you have to wait past your booked time, but also they kick you out as soon as the performance is over. There is really no time to sit and enjoy your drink after the show. As for the server(s), all they did was to bring you an incomplete order and still has the audacity to ask for a tip BEFORE you get your order. They will ask if you want to close your order, and I recommend that you do right there because not only do you have no time to enjoy anything further, but also if you forget about it and leave when they rush you to get out, it will be closed at the end of the day with 20% tip.
Miku Vancouver
2023 Oct 06
Miku Vancouver is beautiful inside out. The views from the patio are incredible and the food from the appetizer to the dessert was simply amazing. Though the price point is a little high, I could easily say that it was one of the best sushi I’ve ever had, and that it was worth it. I would highly recommend it visiting here at least once, especially if you do not live in Vancouver.
