"The best Japanese food in town (of the non-omikase variety) is at Akasaka Japanese Restaurant in Richmond Hill. Nobody else makes an uni shooter (shot glass with sea urchin, sake and ponzu sauce... Heaven in a glass)."

"For years, this restaurant seemed listlessly unwilling to meet expectations. Now veteran chef and part-time culinary instructor David Chung (ex-EDO) has taken over, bringing with him two star students and injecting welcome energy."
