Amazing service coupled with a delicious meal. Appetizers: Octopus Salad was light and crispy Tonno Mantecato is interesting: the bruschetta with tobiko was yummy and the "mashed potatoes" interesting, but I didn't think they worked together Dinner (highlights of the night): sablefish was great, the chili added a hint of heat, and the mushrooms and currants gave the dish a great flavour. The lamb was flavourful, mine had a vein through it which made it a bit chewy but overall a tasty meal Dessert: Panna Cotta was the best dessert, but the tiramisu was good as well.

It’s Friday night @kissatanto for pre-Valentine’s dinner ❀️ and it’s our first time at Kissa Tanto. I love the decor as inspired Tokyo jazz cafes. The food (Italian & Japanese) and experience with Belinda S. made us feel so welcomed and at home. We throughly enjoyed each dish -> here we go! ? Carne Cruda - Snake River Farms wagyu, nashi pear, charred scallion soy, parmesan, arima sansho, gnocco fritto. My goodness, this was so delicious! ? Mezzi Rigatoni - nut fed pork ragu, tomato xo butter, sesame crumb. Homemade pasta and loved the crunch from that sesame crumb ? Organic Half Chicken - shio koji dipping sauce, herbed oil. It was so tender and flavourful. ? Sablefish - nanban oyster mushrooms, chili salmoriglio, marinated currants, pine nuts, sunchoke purée. My favourite dish as it was cooked perfectly and the flavours made this dish come alive! ? Yaki Onigiri- grilled pressed rice stuffed with himematsu mushrooms, Parmesan, roasted chicken consommΓ©, pickled shiso, Piave vecchio. Crunch crunch. Fantastic flavours with each bite. Memorable experience dining at Kissa Tanto.

I am normally not a fan of of food like this: fancy and $$$. But I absolutely LOVED this restaurant. We got the autumn salad, fish crudo, octopus salad, charcoal udon, braised greens and whole fried fish. The autumn salad was probably my favourite dish of the night. I normally do not like beets and this was refreshing yet creamy and all the flavors worked well together. I still crave it til this day. The fish crudo and the octopus salad were both great- seafood tasted fresh and tender. The charcoal udon was very unique; I did find it a tad salty but it was otherwise delicious. The whole fried fish was amazing as well. I do not know what fish I was served but it was great - the soy daikon is mandatory to have with the fish cause otherwise it's too greasy on its own. The braised greens were served with the fish but that was the one dish that I found I did not like. It was VERY bitter (not sure if they cooked it enough because it was honestly inedible) but thankfully it was just a small side dish so we simply left it so we could enjoy everything else. Yes, the prices are quite high but they obviously use fresh ingredients and the highest quality so it is worth it. I would definitely come back here if I had a special event. Also, make sure you have a reservation!! We reserved much in advance so we fortunately had a seat but it filled up very quickly because it's a smaller restaurant and it is popular.

We were here for our Valentine’s Day 2022 dinner. Food that night was a little on the saltier side. The skin of the pork agnolotti wasn’t really done. They serve really good cocktails. None the less, we enjoyed our experience at Kissa Tanto. We will be back for their regular menu.

Reserve in advance! I did it a month prior for 2 and was only able to get bar seating (still a good spot you get to connect with the bartenders). Atmosphere was beautiful, great for date or a celebratory night. Drinks were amazing and food was good. I recommend My Private Tokyo and the Old Fashion. We tried the special of the day, white truffle risotto and cannoli dessert.

I came here last Thursday and thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance of the place and the service. We booked a month in advance and we're seated at the cute nook by the window! The server was very knowledgeable about how the flavours of the cocktails are and how the food was cooked. Checked in to make sure we were happy throughout the evening. Music wasn't loud. Bathrooms were clean. Pricey but was well worth it. Proper unpretentious fine dining experience . Highly recommend! Definitely get the plum cocktail and the fried rockfish dish. Those were my favorites!

This place meets all expectations. We took the 10:15p reservation because that’s what you do for truly epic cuisine. The chef’s dishes are imaginative, unique, and insanely delicious. Hands down one of the best meals I’ve had in 2021 and I’ve had some real bangers! The decor and vibe is hip and oh so romantic (low lighting always makes for a romantic night on a rainy day). The service was great especially as it relates to recommendations. The menu descriptions can be difficult to follow when imagining the taste, so our server was great at guiding us. Did we order too much? Yes. Do we regret it? Not a chance.
