“ Beautiful dinning area, food was amazing. So many options on the menu. Service was also great! 10/10 definitely recommend. ”
“ Usually I do write a review but this time it just slipped my mind. Food awesome / service is always great / and finally some advice if you are not big eaters please go in for their a la carte if not sky is your limit. Cheers ”
“ While visiting the area, we had a fantastic time dining here in St. Catharines! The service was excellent—attentive and thoughtful, making sure everything was just right. The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavour. We ordered a la carte and tried a couple of the Yakitori (chicken mono & Oropan Yaki) Takoyaki, Signature Tonkotsu Ramen, Salmon Teriyaki Entree and the Gold Bento box—each dish was perfectly prepared and served at just the right pace. The restaurant itself felt modern, clean, and had a cool stylish vibe that added to the overall experience. As for parking, there’s a mix of options in the area—some street parking and paid lots, but the good news is it’s free on weekends (just paid during the week). If you’re ever in the Niagara or St. Catharines area, I highly recommend stopping by—we’ll definitely be back! ”

“ A Delightful Surprise at East of Izakaya We dined at East of Izakaya in St. Catharines with our kids, and it turned out to be one of the best Japanese dining experiences we've ever had. We came in knowing they offered an all-you-can-eat menu, so we expected the food to be good, but what we got was so much more. The skewers were absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The sushi? Simply amazing, fresh and expertly crafted. But what truly blew us away were the tapas-like portions. They were incredibly original, offering a burst of flavors that were savory, fresh, spicy, and sweet all at once, yet never losing that touch of refinement. East of Izakaya exceeded our expectations in every way. The food was a delightful mix of traditional and innovative, making our family outing a memorable adventure. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in some exceptional Japanese cuisine! ”
