A
Akane-Ya
You'll swear you can feel the North Pacific breeze when you bite into tender eel sushi and yellowtail sashimi at this modern dining room, filled with black lacquer, mini origami and shoji screens. The prices are high, but so is the quality. Try something with uni (sea urchin) in it, knocked down with some Asahi or Sapporo.

Nami
The name means 'wave' (as in tsunami) – look for the curly neon version on the sign out the front. Bustling about the sleek, black lacquered interior are kimono-clad matrons and intense-looking sushi chefs, who make only small concessions to North American palates. Robatayaki grilling is a specialty.

C
Fujiyama
Enter this low-key Japanese diner through a traditional timber arch wrapped in flickering fairy lights, then plant yourself at a blonde-wood timber booth surrounded by rice-paper lanterns emanating a soft glow. The scene is set for non-greasy tempura and moist teriyaki dishes, plus sushi, udon and soba noodle fare.

Okonomi House
Okonomi House is one of the only places in Toronto (and perhaps North America) dishing up okonomiyaki, savory Japanese cabbage pancakes filled with meat, seafood or vegetables. Perfect cold-weather comfort food.
