Ryu earns praise for very fresh fish and a range of standout items like a sashimi platter, caviar crab roll, toro maki, and even a tuna belly with truffles, with the Kaizen roll singled out as especially good; the wagyu tataki is tender but seen by some as not worth the premium. Service and presentation are repeatedly described as superb and the ambience as great, with a cozy, low key vibe and courteous staff. Many reviewers call Ryu the best sushi in town and applaud an authentic Japanese approach with pure high quality raw fish and minimal sauces. Takeout and lunch specials are noted for value, with miso soup well done and several dishes delivering the same freshness. One visit highlighted a mismatch between interior photos and the actual space, and some felt the prices were high for what was delivered. A rare negative experience cited slow service and seating issues that spoiled the mood, though the food was still described as decent. Overall, the restaurant is seen as a top choice for fresh, quality sushi, with occasional hiccups in service or space.

I had a lovely dinner tonight at Ryu. From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent & we were greeted so warmly. The staff were incredibly sweet, attentive, & made us feel very welcome throughout the evening.
We really enjoyed our meal, & everything about the experience felt thoughtful & well done. The presentation of the dishes was beautiful & everything tasted very fresh. The atmosphere was perfect, not too crowded, which made it easy to relax & have a great conversation with my friend. It felt like such a cozy & enjoyable dining experience.

Overall, I loved everything about it & will definitely be coming back again!

Came to Ryu on Valentine's day for their fixed menu & had a pleasant experience. Very fresh fish. The sashimi platter, caviar crab roll & toro maki were among my favourites. The wagyu tataki was very tender & flavourful, but not worth the extra $20 in my opinion. The presentation & service is superb.

The interior does not match the photos on the website at all. In reality, there is barely any interior - it looks severely worn down.
The food is tasty & fresh, but nothing special, especially considering the above-average prices.
I came here because of the many positive reviews, but unfortunately my experience did not match the expectations they created.
