" Japanese Bistro Kamome is a lovely gem tucked away near Joyce-Collingwood. I love their philosophy of homemade cooking; it shows in the quality of their meals. I ordered their ikura onigiri and miso soup, and both were fantastic! The ikura was generous in size with fantastic flavor. My only criticism would be the limited seating—it tends to fill up quickly, so be prepared to wait during peak hours. Despite that inconvenience, this place's charm and taste make it worth every bite. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough for folks craving authentic Japanese comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)

" After long travels, I found this sweet haven for Japanese food and I’m so glad I did! The ebi tempura was light and crispy with perfect seasoning! I couldn’t resist getting another onigiri because they were just that good. While the restaurant is very small, it adds a quaint touch to the overall experience. Service was good too, staff seemed genuinely happy to help! Will definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed a fantastic lunch at Kamome! I ordered the ramen which was delicious and comforting. The staff were friendly and made sure my experience was up to par. Would recommend for a quick but satisfying meal, although be ready for limited seating! Good food overall and great for takeout as well. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Kamome after hearing positive reviews, and I must say it lived up to the expectations! The onigiri was a highlight; very carefully packed with ingredients. I did feel I could have gotten a little more for the price as my appetite is large. Despite the small space, the staff were incredible and made us feel at home. For anyone who wants quality Japanese cuisine, it’s a fantastic choice! " (*Curated Review*)

" So glad I found this little oasis of Japanese comfort food! The onigiri had generous fillings and was so fresh. The staff was absolutely lovely too; they took their time to explain the menu to me as a first-timer. The only complaint, however, was that they were cash only, which was inconvenient at times. Regardless, the food and ambiance made it worth the trip. I'll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Charming little spot! Reminded me of home with its vibrant decor and warm staff. A highly recommended dish is the ebi tempura udon; it was fresh and packed with flavor. The portions were decent, and my stomach thanked me for it! I also appreciated their environmentally friendly practices, which is quite a rare find. This bistro is definitely on my list of repeat visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem for authentic Japanese cuisine! I've tried various dishes, but nothing beats the ebi mayo and the beef don. The entire meal was satisfying and brought back fond memories of my time in Japan. I'm also a fan of their approach to environmental sustainability; bringing your own containers is a fantastic idea! I'll be back often for my fix of comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)
