Wanted to try Tokuzō Restaurant for some time and decided to go there for lunch on a weekend, to celebrate a special occasion. We called ahead. Upon arrival though, there’s no one to welcome you in. The staff looked unenthusiastic and couldn’t be bothered to even help you get seated.
Hardly any customers. Their service was limited to the ground floor. The only washroom however was on the empty top floor. We sat ourselves and waited well over 10 minutes before someone came over to check on us.
Ironically, the waiter wasn’t familiar with the menu. When asked about some of their menu items, he had to get the host. And the host didn’t know either. They had to check with the chef. Anyway,
The 'Wagyu Beef Roll' was tasty, despite the fibrous asparagus. Recommended.
Their 'Gyoza' (chicken) was another winner. It was excellent. Another easy recommendation.
The 'Tom Yum' soup lacked depth of flavors. It was average at best. Passable.
I ordered their lone 'Ramen' entry on the menu. Big mistake. Their namesake ramen is abysmal, for lack of a better word. Sorry, not wishing to sound uppity but at its simplest form, a bowl of ramen has 5 elements: broth, noodles, tare, oil, and toppings. What I was served was thin pale lukewarm unseasoned flavorless liquid of some kind, barely any beef shavings, a bunch of sweetcorn kernels, and some other forgettable vegetables over soggy noodles. Avoid at all costs. [Take it off the menu, if possible.]
We ordered an assortment of select 'Sushi', and they were alright. Better than their ramen!
The 'Mocktails' weren’t too shabby either.
And remember the special occasion? Yeah, they completely forgot that!
End of the day, the taste is subjective, and expectations are personal. Overall, worth a visit. Good luck.
