Introducing Two New Desserts In Partnership With NEO COFFEE BAR
For the perfect ending to your meal, our two new desserts will surely satisfy any sweet tooth. In partnership with NEO COFFEE BAR, a unique brand of Japanese-style cafés in Toronto, we will be offering two desserts crafted by their pastry chefs beginning March 2—the NEO Chocolate Matcha Lava Cake and NEO Roll Cake.
The NEO Chocolate Matcha Lava Cake is a rice and moist chocolate cake filled with a sweet matcha white chocolate filling. Be mesmerized by the chocolate flowing out when you start to dig into this decadent indulgence.
The NEO Roll Cake is truly a slice of heaven with delicious cream, fresh fruits, and other ingredients wrapped in a light and fluffy sponge cake. Depending on available seasonal flavours, cake slices may vary each day.

This event only comes twice a year where guests are invited to experience a curated prix fixe menu showcasing our best-selling culinary creations. From start to finish, embark on a decadent adventure full of unique flavours and textures.
To start, guests have a choice between a soup or salad. Dive into our classic Lobster Miso Soup, rich miso soup broth topped with tender lobster meat, or our Kamo Salad, a refreshing salad with juicy sous-vide duck breast.

Our Gindara is a guest favourite with perfectly grilled black cod with savoury saikyo miso.
Next, enjoy your pick of our Nama sushi platter with classic nigiri or our Aburi sushi platter with blow-torched nigiri and oshizushi.
And for the perfect ending to your meal, our chefs have masterfully concocted a delightful dessert just for JaBilicious, a layered matcha and black sesame panna cotta with mochi ice cream.
Elevate your experience by adding a sake pairing for $38 where we select sakes from our extensive drink menu that will go perfectly with four courses of your dinner.
