Guu Izakaya

The salmon oshizushi and the karaage are the two dishes that anchor most tables. Add the aigamo tataki and a yaki udon if the group wants to share around the table.

Izakaya menus are built for sharing, so a group of four to six can graze through most of the small plates in one sitting. The Queen West room runs lively and loud, which suits a celebratory dinner more than a quiet one.

Reservations are offered and help at busy dinner hours. Walk ins can work earlier in the week since the dining room is fairly spacious.

The kitchen delivers through both Uber Eats and DoorDash, including late on weekends. Izakaya small plates travel better than expected, though fried dishes are best eaten fresh.
