This Japanese restaurant was one of the first in Toronto when it opened in the 1980s Toronto TorontoRestaurant JapaneseFood
was opened in Forest Hill Village in 1998, and in 1999 EDO was introduced at the Air Canada Centre where it became one of the first sushi stands in a sports arena outside Japan.
Both streams are represented in dishes like EDO-ko's Tiger Tuna, where traditional tuna tataki is topped with a sauce that's a mix of miso and balsamic that's meant to look like tiger stripes. "The cuisine was unusual at the time. We helped people appreciate the cuisine for what it was, got people to try things they had never tried before and made it an experience rather than just a meal."
Sadly, on New Year's morning in 2016, the head chef came into EDO early to find the restaurant filling with smoke: it was gutted by a big fire, and unfortunately, the landlord there decided not to renew EDO's lease and sold the building, forcing the closure of that location."We have loyal customers of 20 to 30 years, third generations coming to dine with us, it's so gratifying," says Chaim.
