| Reviews: | "A fine sushi place in the heart of Niagara Falls, Canada. Very expensive, but well worth it. Futomaki is Takis speciality." |
| | " As an American I didn't think it was expensive at all. The sushi was very fresh
and wonderful. The sweet egg roll was to die for. The plum wine was milder than others but very
good. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone loving sushi.

| | "I originally posted Taki and its first review, however that was
3 years ago, and a lot has happened since then. First off, the NEW
Taki is for the better! Recently, Taki named a new manager in place of
their old manager who wasn't keeping the restaurant at a high level. New
manager TOMO leads the way, with SUSHI chefs Danny and Hiro Saito, as they offer
the FRESHEST fish in the region! This is Toronto type freshness, as fresh fish comes
in 3-4 times a week, and the exotic variety has increased tremendously. TAKI offers such
delicacies as uni, mirugai, white tuna, grouper, flounder, aoyagi, oysters, clams, and ABALONE!
The presentation is magnificant, and the PRICES were slashed from their old manager's prices, the
cost
is very affordable. So why eat sushi in Toronto and pay Toronto prices, when you have the best
freshest sushi
right here in Niagara Falls at almost half the price? Taki will also be instituting a raw bar
oyster/clam night, to be
announced.

feeling this the moment they pass through the front door. The decor is beautiful and the embiance,
relaxing. The manager Tomo and his highly skilled assistants are undoubtedly among the best
around. Tomo is also an entertainer and when called on, will not hesitate to participate in a
friendly, humourous banter with his guests. My favorites are the spicy sake temaki, and any
Nigiri-zushi or sashimi (as Taki's freshness is second to none). The servers are friendly and it
is also minutes from the casino and the Falls. Parking is free also so don't worry about paying
casino prices down the street! Try Taki and you may not want anything else again.

| Reviews: | "Used to be a great sushi spot, but has failed to keep up with the times. A lot of good cooked dishes, but the sushi is rarely fresh anymore.

| | "My family have been going to this restaurant since it openend in 1988. The sea food is brought to his restaurant on a daily bases. The other items on the menu are just as HIGH QUALITY as his fish is!
I think you owe it to your readers that this restaurant should be reviewed again as it has not been updated since 1997! Tourist from JAPAN come to eat at Yukiguni as they know they will get High Quality Food......" |

| | "The embience is rather outdated, but the sushi is still the best, very fresh.
The fish comes here on a regular basis from Toronto and the price in general is competitive compared to other japanese restaurants in the city.
Most of all, its high-quality service makes customers to come back." |

| | "I originally wrote the initial short review on Yuki Guni in 1997, however in the past 2 years it has really come around! My father and I talked both owners into upgrading their sushi quality, and variety, and are responsible for some of the exotic
items they now offer. Their main supplier is a good friend of mine, and he delivers fresh fish from Toronto very frequently. They are without a doubt the #1 sushi place in Ontario, outside of Toronto. Many people come from Grand Island, Syracuse,
and Rochester, NY to eat sushi here. Japanese tourists on tours have lunches and dinners catered to their hotel from Yuki Guni, and head sushi chef
Mr. Shoji is a master at what he does. Stay tuned, as Yuki Guni plans to bring in Awabi (Abalone) for the fall season on occasion.
