It was one of the experiences we have had in quite a long time. The staff were all fabulous, the food was so good, no it was beyond excellent. And the drinks were amazing. Our server Maya was perfect, we couldn’t have asked for better.

Food was amazing as always, drinks tasted great but were running over 10 minutes each time we ordered and the restaurant wasn’t very busy.

Food was incredible. Great vibe. Great service. Pricy cocktails, but very specialized, so it kinda makes sense.

We were underwhelmed by our experience. The food was good, not nothing to rave about. Same goes for the service. Would probably come again for a happy hour, but not for a dinner, and certainly wouldn’t go out of our way to do so. We were surprised by the length of time in took between dishes, especially given that we were told as a party of 2 we were only allocated 1.5 Hrs at the table. Due to the wait we used the full allotment, and wouldn’t have had time to order extra dishes or drinks if we wanted to. We ordered a “Sexy Robot” and “Okinawa Nights” for drinks - both were fine, however the Okinawa nights in particular lacked any presentation (no garnish or anything) just clear liquid in a martini glass.. figured for $16 they’d at-least do it up a bit? Of all the Concorde Group spots, this unfortunately has been our least favourite.

Tried this restaurant for the first time for dinner. Cocktails are excellent, the interior decor was nice, but the music is quite loud and food is just okay. Very small portions for how much they charge. Handroll sushi is poorly made, super tiny portions for over 6-7$ per roll. Not worth it at all. It makes me laugh that the restaurant’s name is ironically “lonely mouth”… in Japanese=“Kuchisabishii”-the phrase meaning is to describe that the food isn’t enough or not enough food to satisfy your appetite. Certainly, this restaurant’s food isn’t enough to satisfy your hunger. Go to this place for drinks, not to satisfy your hunger.
