I’ve always ordered from Edo Pickering & they have the best teriyaki sauce. I was so happy to see a location open closer to where I live! I just sent in an order and it was packaged so nicely, and carefully! It also included a free complimentary desert which is was such a nice surprise. I will def be ordering from here a lot more & I recommend to anyone looking for a good chicken/broccoli teriyaki bowl! I’m salivating writing this review just thinking about it, everyone check this place out!!!!!!!!

I went with my friend and I noticed environment is nice and clean and welcoming. The Filipino young woman was welcoming but over did it. My friend ordered then it was my turn to order. The cashier was asking many questions as I was simply asking what I saw on the menu. She then turned to the other girl working and giggled something while they looked at me. So that was a turn off, I bailed out from ordering. I tried a bit of my friends food and it was actually delicious. They need better people working there or they'll lose business. It's a shame, because the food seems good.

My family and I tried several dishes and were all pretty good. Can’t go wrong with the chicken teriyaki and rice and noodle dishes. Only thing we found the food to be a bit on the salty side, I would request less sauce next time. The carrots were also a bit raw in one of the dishes.

That’s a surprise that there’s a good Japanese food in Ajax! Such a yummy 🤤 food for a comparatively low price. They also have special offers for every day of the week. Nice and clean place with friendly staff. Will clover this place again.

I was surprised, 1st tome trying this place I had chicken/Beef Yakisoba. It was good, never had that commercial fast food flavor. Sauce was more than enough and nice flavor. Price was fair , loved the large round noodles and plenty of meat too. Will definitely be trying more dushes there. Picture taken when I already started eating and almost forgot.

We got the shrimp/sukiyaki bowl and beef/chicken bowl. I asked if I can substitute the rice to veggies and it was not a problem at all. The lady at the cash was cordial and kind, makes the overall experience very enjoyable. The food was tasty, restaurant was clean and we got our order very quickly. Will order again if I’m in the area.

Went for their soft opening meal giveaway. Staff seemed very friendly and food was delicious. Very saucy and fresh ingredients. They were taking cash donations to the food bank which was a great initiative for their opening. Wish more people donated. Will be returning soon!!

I ve buy here every once in a while this time they missed my extras which was paid for on order. Double check your orders if adding extras. They missed mine and provided a fake apology & no offer to reimburse or compensate. Pls be real to your customers and take care of them

The sauce has too much of a soya sauce flavour. It isn t as nice as other restaurants. I would suggest that the cook and manager visit other sites like the Pickering mall and Newmarket as the sauce there is better tasting. Otherwise the food and service is amazing

Not sure why people are hyping up this place unless these reviews are bots. 13.50 tax in chicken teriyaki and you barely get any chicken. They put so much cabbage the rice is not even cooked properly. For an extra 2$ Go to sushi and maki. Right across the street from this place. You get soup and salad 16.50 taxes in. And they use chicken breast. Not thighs or legs and the food is way fresher.

I have been ordering from this location for some time now and every meal Ive ever gotten has been prepared fresh and with great care. Also appreciate the small message with my order every time! Makes me smile, its a wonderful touch. Their Sushi platters are amazing, I am addicted for sure. The Sukiyaki Beef Bowl also is a winner. This is without a doubt my favorite Edo Japan location. Keep up the amazing work! Next round, Ill take some photos, I am always too excited to eat when the food arrives lol.

This is an excellent Edo Japan location. Their menu has additional items as compared to other locations. The dishes are very well prepared and the staff happily accommodate special requests. The staff are professional, friendly and polite. During the times that I have visited, a staff member came out to the dining room and asked every customer if everything was good. I am happy to strongly recommend. Vegetarian options: The restaurant has a good variety of vegetarian options.

Dont know how you can complain about Edo. It is amazing food, the taste the presentation, damn even the containers they use for take out are amazing. My 6yr old cant keep him away from the beef teriyaki, my favorite is the chicken and beef Ramen. The shrimp and Yam tempura are amazing. Thank you Edo Japan.

Food is hot and freshly made. The sushi is pre-made I think so it doesn t taste too bad but I rather freshly rolled as you order. The hot sauce is not sure ha but a garlicky hot sauce I m not a fan of it.

Don t go for bubble tea. Tried the mango tea and because I asked for no ice, I got about 70% of the cup filled. What s the point of serving anything beverage related if you will cheap out with ingredients, especially when it s just water/tea. Stick to your stir fried food and don t bother diversifying when you don t know how to run a food business.

Got the chicken with veg and rice and gf got the beef. Very fresh and healthy food. Can get brown rice and less sauce to make it even more healthy. Makes a good quick post-workout meal option. Great customer service and fast service. Will definitely be eating here again. Definitely gonna try the boba next time.

Got the sizzling shrimp meal today. It wasnt bad but half of my shrimp still had shells on it and seemed pretty over cooked. You also seem to get a lot less cabbage mix than you do at the Pickering mall location. However, I understand that newly opened establishments have a few hiccups at first before they get into the flow of things, so hopefully next time Ill enjoy it even more.

Great customer service and clean location! Rating it a 4 because for the price, you should get more chicken, the ratio to rice doesn t balance. I also was disappointed that I ordered 2 adult meals and 1 kid meal and wasn t offered their Sunday deal which was cheaper than what I paid AND included an extra kids meal. That would have been nice. Food was delicious.

I recently visited the new Edo Japan in Ajax Harwood Plaza and I have to say the place is bright, clean and inviting. The staff is very friendly and polite and the food is steaming hot, fresh and tasty. They sell the bowls at a great price point for lunch, as I paid $12.99 + tax for sukiyaki beef with rice and veggies. I wanted add the gyoza or spring rolls but I didnt want to blow the budget LOL. Overall a great experience and I will gladly return for lunch again.

First time going here. Had a large takeout order for my family. The staff are very nice but the dinner portions are way way too small. My entire family complained there wasnt enough food, but it was good food. For the price, its too high for the portion. May not go back for this reason. Korean place in Pickering has massive portions for the same price.

Sushi rolls doesn t seem to be real Japanese style, they use smoked salmon that is very dry, just not going to return again. Instead of Japanese mayo seems like a regular mayo used . Tempura is not really authentic as well. For takeout they forgot to give us chopsticks and napkin as well.

We have been going to Edo in Ajax almost every week since in opened. The staff are great and the food is delicious. However, the 2 stars under food is because weve noticed the portions have reduced considerably! My husband and I could buy one teriyaki meal and it was good for the two of us! The portions have reduced by at least a third but the prices remain the same. The food at this Edo is awesome and we love it and the staff and atmosphere are great! Please bring back the portion sizes.

Crazy busy and loud, but that is because a lot of people are as addicted to the food as I am. My son goes to rock climbing nearby every week and every week I need to feed my craving. Had the new orange chicken this week, not impressed. But that is unusual. Going to try the noodles for the first time next week. Vegetarian options: Seem to have tons of veggie options. We get the veggie sushi for our son. Parking: Easy free parking out front. Kid-friendliness: Kids were there last night, eating with chopsticks. My youngest loves their veggie sushi.

Been here twice now. Came in today(Tuesday) to try out the special which was the teriyaki chicken or beef with springs and drinks. We got one chicken and beef and we got a 14 Kami sushi platter. I like the teriyaki beef better than the chicken, my brother did as well. Sushi was fresh and delicious. I also have to mention that their pop fountain was not watered down like taco bells or other restaurants are nowadays. Took a sip of my root beer and there definitely was taste like drinking from a can directly. Will definitely be coming back here and getting their teriyaki beef. The first time we came here, we got the Thursday special which was sushi special and got boba drinks. Didnt like the boba drinks at all. Didnt taste good at all compared to other bubble tea places that specializes in bubble tea strictly. So well pass on that. Sushi was definitely priced right at 9.99 for 16 pieces. Maybe the rice was day old not sure but when I came in today on a Tuesday and just ordered sushi off the menu definitely had more freshness to it. Definitely recommend this place. The staff is so friendly the minute you walk, they greet you. Love that. Wil be coming back again for sure. Keep up the good work.

Second time at this location and went back because the first time it was good. Ordered 4 meals tonight and ramen was 1 plus 3 chop chop bowls. I was told they do not have spoons, but were very told they are sorry and that they had forks. And once I opened the meals we realized the toppings were not complete on the meals. We were not told when we picked up the food, I only found out by calling and asking. Hope this was a 1 off experience as they are 1 for 2 right now and this time was disappointing.
