1. Moccacino Cafe
Berkeley, CA 94704
USA
(510) 665-1888
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhoods: Telegraph Ave, UC Campus Area
Ok, I might have given this place a high rating thanks to sentimental value. It reminds me of times back in Toronto when my friend and I would hang out at Tea 168 and study for hours.
That's what I do here, study. Only alone. What a loser.
Great value…More »
2. Nude Sushi
Oakland, CA 94609

Categories:

Sushi Bars
Neighbourhoods: Rockridge, North Oakland
I've ordered from nude sushi enough times to know that their delivery people are super nice! n____n
Also, their website is super easy to use and the people there are also really on top of things. I ordered 150 pieces of sushi for a friend's birthday…More »

Food Delivery Services
Neighbourhood: Downtown Berkeley
Can't really complain about pmn especially since it delivers and it's cheap. And honestly, gourmet pho is not really a priority when I am up late and starving my ass off studying for some stupid midterm.
I can't really say much about the actual…More »
4. Ten Ren's Tea Time
North York, ON M2N 6Z4
(416) 229-1688
Categories:
Tea Rooms,
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Willowdale
Compared to 168 down the street, Ten Ren's is smaller, smellier, and more crowded. The food is pretty much the same, maybe a little bit better. The tables are small and not ideal for studying and there are no games! (I sound like a seven-year-old,…More »
5. Tea Shop 168
Dear lord, people invent the most horribly mouth-watering foods in an effort to get you fat. (and then they look at you weird when you eat the whole thing by yourself. back off. i like my calories.)
Specifically...funnel cakes, crepes, and waffles,…More »

This place was one of my favourite highschool hangouts, in addition to Ajisen Ramen down the street.… Read more »
6. Asian Legend
I like asian legend! I come here all the time with friends and family--it's so versatile. And now I sound like I'm reviewing some pair of sensible shoes or something.
Yes, their food is on the greasy side. Yes, it's usually crowded and loud. But the…More »
7. Ajisen Ramen
I love Ajisen--I spent about three out of five days of the week here when I was in high school. I eventually ended up having my 17th birthday party here and had about 30 people invade the place--the waitresses were really nice and decorated the…More »
8. Guu Izakaya
Toronto, ON M5B
(416) 977-0999
Categories:
Japanese,
Tapas Bars
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
Thought I'd update a bit since I went back last night.
1) wait times are usually upwards of one hour in my experience. There is a starbucks at yonge and college (5min walk?) where I like to stay while I wait.
2) If your group is three people or more,…More »

Definitely wasn't what I was expecting. A friend told me to go check this place out and I thought it… Read more »
9. Aji Sai Japanese Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5V
(416) 603-3366
Aji Sai is my favourite place to go for sushi :] maybe I just haven't discovered the best knock-out sushi place yet, but I think Aji Sai comes close!
Admittedly I only go for their lunch special--11 for all you can eat is really such a deal that I…More »
10. Lai Wah Heen
Toronto, ON M5G 1R3
(416) 977-9899
Category:
Dim Sum
Neighbourhood: Downtown Core
I came here for dinner so I thought I'd review since most of them seem to do with their dim sum.
The place was EMPTY when we arrived except for another table of four. The waiter was therefore really attentive, service was fast, and food arrived…More »
11. Chako Barbecue Izakaya
$16 for all you can eat korean barbecue with some Japanese sushi rolls thrown into the mix.
Good since drowning in meat might be a bit disadvantageous to your bodily functions. So take a break in the middle and eat some rolls. Or order some greens to…More »
12. Ajisen Ramen
San Francisco, CA 94103
USA

Category:
Japanese
Neighbourhoods: Union Square, SOMA
Disappointment :[
"Meh. I've experienced better" is right. I came here with high hopes after spending much of my high school life here http://www.yelp.com/bi...
The prices are lower in Toronto. The noodles are thicker in Toronto. The portions are…More »
13. Kirala Japanese Restaurant
Berkeley, CA 94705
USA

Categories:
Sushi Bars,

Neighbourhood: South Berkeley
Definitely returning as often as possible!
This place was recommended to me by a friend's aunt, who had heard about it from a waitress at another Japanese restaurant. The aunt had never gone here and barely knew where it was, so my friend and I went…More »
14. Bangkok Noodles & Thai BBQ
Berkeley, CA 94704
USA
(510) 549-1958
Category:
Thai
Neighbourhood: Downtown Berkeley
Bangkok has saved my friends and I from many a late-night strike of hunger. With not much open late on north side, it's usually just a toss up between Bangkok and Thai Noodle.
Between the two, I like Bangkok better for its cleanliness, fast service,…More »
15. Pho 88 North York

16. Etsu Japanese Restaurant
Toronto, ON M5T 1L1
(416) 599-4200
Oooh yay! I'm a big fan!
Everything about this place screams cute! The cozy dining room, the outside area, the art on the walls, the ceramic paper crane chopstick holders, the waitress in a kimono, the glass furniture...
There are so many perfect…More »
17. Guu SakaBar
Again, another hit for guu. (Hit out of the park?)
I am in love with the room to the right, where you go shoeless and sit on straw mats, while the tables are close to the floor. I know, I know, it's basically like a normal table and chair, but the…More »
18. Aji Sai Japanese Restaurant
If extreme sushi eating were an olympic sport, I'd...well I'll be honest. I probably wouldn't win. But at least I'd make it to the little leagues.
This aji sai would be my training grounds. Get ready, competitors!
Clean, spacious, almost quadruple the…More »
19. Linda's
The food here left me so disappointed!
I came here with my parents, since they had been here before and enjoyed it. Too bad there was no encore of the good experience.
I had the pomelo salad (September special), which had the oddest mix of flavours I…More »

came here because a friend strongly strongly recommended it and then dragged me here. can't say I regret it.
we ordered the ... fried chicken with garlic? I don't quite remember what it was called--maybe something having to do with rosemary? the sauce…More »
