The atmosphere is what you would expect if you were in Japan. Friends from Japan say this place is like what they have back home.
Food is always good, service is always great. If you have an issue, they just replace the item for you without hesitation.
I love all the skewers, I don't think there is one that I didn't like! Deep fried chicken skin, it's not always available but when it is, we always have at least 2 orders!
Always make a reservation, they are always busy.
Nice atmosphere and tasty Robata, with a good selection of dishes. We had chicken, beef, pork and lamb chop, but needed a Mentaiko udon and an unagi rice to fill up. Prices are somewhat on the high side.
If you like grilled meat on a stick with a nice assortment of alcohol there's really no other contender for Zakkushi.
With a relatively low price point for a large choice of different meats prepared deliciously over a fire, noticeably fast service and the type of friendly staff you'd expect from a Japanese establishment there's a clear cut standard to this chain.
Maybe if there were more restaurants that specialized in Japanese skewers to compare to I could say worse things, but as it stands Zakkushi is more or less unrivalled in this cuisine in Canada.
