Customer Reviews
This is one of the best cocktail bars I've been to!! The atmosphere and experience was really unique and unmatched to any other cocktail bars, it's a cross between a cocktail bar and lounge accompanied with great music and amazing food!! The aesthetics are beautiful with a darker setting, great for special occasions and date nights. The food menu is more like Japanese tapas style, great for sharing or for ordering individually. My favorite dishes were the shrimp tempura, the arugula salad and the corn, everything was soooo tasty and flavorful!! They also have a unique and large cocktail menu, the cocktails are more spirit-forward, great for people who like stronger drinks. We went on a Saturday night, gets a little busy but was a fun crowd. We all had so much fun and will definitely be back!! I highly highly recommend this place!!
Restaurant Review: Kissa, Toronto For my birthday, my girlfriend took me to Kissa in Toronto. The restaurant's 80s/90s vibes and amazing atmosphere made it a memorable night. The live DJ played chill music, which added to the experience. The drinks were fantastic, and the food was incredible. The Wagyu steak and Wagyu burgers were both phenomenal. The sushi was unlike anything I've tasted before—simply amazing. While Kissa is on the expensive side, the delicious food and drinks make it worth it, especially for special occasions. The only downside was parking. It's on a busy street, so we parked in a nearby garage and took an Uber. Overall, Kissa provided an unforgettable dining experience, and I'd definitely go back for another special occasion.
Toute bonne cuisine a un prix , les pizzas et pâtes ont leur prix... Quand on critique un restaurant ´ le prix ne doit pas être la référence mais uniquement ce qu’il y a dans l’assiette , la salle et le personnel. Je croyais connaître un bon nombre de restaurants excellents à Vancouver ... je viens pour mon 11 eme anniversaire de mariage d’un découvrir un nouveau. Cuisine italienne revisiter façon japonaise avec des champignons huîtres, un tempura de Shishito ( petits poivrons avec une stracciatella crémeuse bio maison , du bœuf wagyu en tartare avec parmesan et pétales d’oignons perlés, des pâtes paccherri au porc ( le ventre du porc qui fond en bouche ) un extraordinaire pavé de saumon sauvage à la peau croustillante avec légumes d’été et pour finir une émulsion tofu aux agrumes et enfin une crème yuzu avec un cramble et huile d’olive. Que de travail en cuisine , un personnel en salle attentionné et prévenant dans une salle peu éclairée qui fait penser un peu au China club de Paris ( style à la fois colonial et Art Deco ) Bref un régal pour l’œil et les papilles. A réserver absolument.
