    Spider roll
    Maggie G.

    Decided to try a new sushi place on UberEats and extremely glad we gave Gurume a try. Sashimi was fresh, not fish at all and all the toppings that came with it paired really nicely. Sushi was good, rice was perfectly spider roll was delicious. What we got: Spider roll Sashimi and sushi for 2 (comes with 2x soup and salad)

    Yummy sushi sashimi dinner. So tasty and fresh that it reminded me of my trip to Japan. The flavors and freshness are spot on!

    Solid sushi and sashimi set for 2 for just under $30 per person+tax/tip (included soup and salad). Sashimi and sushi is fresh though maybe one small piece of fish was slightly fishy but overall it was a satisfying meal. I would be happy to return when I'm in the area for a sushi fix. It was easy to find a seat around 6pm walking in on Saturday. They also have enclosed booths for a more private experience. When I was there seems like a hotspot for tourists and families. Service was seamless.

    Dynamite roll
    Catherine S.

    Ok, I was skeptical when I only read 4 & 5 star reviews, but tonight's dinner made a believer out of me. We dropped in for a weekday dinner as my sashimi loving daughter requested Japanese for dinner. We ordered a dynamite roll (10/10), 18 pc sashimi dinner (15/10), 8pc scallop aburi hako (8/10), 9 pc sashimi appetizer (12/10), veg tempura (not pictured but 8/10) and 1 order each of Madai and Escolar a la carte sashimi. The variety of fish was great and the quality was ridiculously good. Most of the sashimi came topped with extra garnish that added so much extra flavour and truly elevated Gurume to a 5 star place for me. This is not your run of the mill korean/japanese restaurant as their sashimi & sushi are at par with even the highest end sushi shops I've been to. We left the restaurant with full bellies and happy to have found a real gem. Looking forward to returning to try their other offerings!

    Excellent and super speedy service. The food was light, healthy and delicious. I could easily eat here daily. The decor is incredibly cute inside creating semi private little coves for tables.

    Combination Tray M
    Jasmine Y.

    I ordered the Combination Tray M for pickup. Friendly lady on the phone. Keep in mind they open at 4 pm Mon-Thurs; 12 pm for Friday and the weekend. The platter was a hit! My family enjoyed it. The variety was what was really nice; as you can see, there's many different cuts and choices. I think the 3 rolls they picked were spicy salmon, shrimp tempura with cucumber, and a crab roll. All were good! The slices of salmon belly were a welcomed surprise. Excellent wasabi. At a price of ~$118 after tax, for the variety and quality, it's a good deal! I'm from NJ, USA, and $118 CAD (~$87 USD) cannot get me a platter like this at home!

    Monday 12:30pm I was starving and had to eat something light before my meetings . I opted for the salmon lovers lunch special. It came with 4 nigiris , sashimi and 6pcs salmon maki and soup . There were a lot of options on the menu but had to make a quick decision based on timing ( what's the fastest best thing to order ). When I walked into the restaurant, it was a good surprise , love the feel of the place , it reminds me of the show Tokyo diner , its small, cozy , well decorated Japanese style with loads of bamboos . I was welcomed by a nice hostess / waitress . While waiting she offered and served me water ( that's what you call customer service but maybe only in Canada haha, it's not a common occurrence in nyc ). The place looks inviting , simple , clean ( though I didn't use the bathroom which is a good gauge of a restaurant). Summary - happy with my order but wished the rice was a bit more soft. I'll definitely try to come back before I leave to try the other dishes if I have time .

    Rainbow Roll, Aburi Saba, Bibimbap, Green Salad, Miso Soup

    Gurume Sushi is conveniently located steps away from Yonge & College subway station, and right across from Toronto Metropolitan University. I love the ambience of this restaurant - it has a wooden accent interior and Japanese booth-style seatings which make it more intimate when dining for two or with a small party. Inside each booth, there are hooks where you can hang up your jackets. You can order from the touch-screen tablet at each table, or regularly from a hard-copy menu. All the food came fairly quickly and they were all fresh, high quality, and tasty. I could see why this place got into "Yelp's Top 25 Places to Eat" in 2023, and why it has a high average rating among Yelpers. I liked that the Garden Salad contained mostly dark green leafy vegetables (including spinach) instead of iceberg lettuce. The dressing was typical but pretty good. The Rainbow Roll was average, but the Sashimi Dinner (salmon, tuna, yellowtail, scallops, and a few other fish types) was excellent. It came with a small salad and miso soup. I liked that some of the sashimi had fried onions and a bit of garlic sauce as topping. Aburi Saba was disappointing - mostly rice with only a very small and thin slice of saba (mackerel) on top, and an even smaller piece of shiitake mushroom that you could barely taste. Unagi Donburi was okay... very thin slices of unagi on top of rice. The Bibimbap was good with a decent amount of vegetables (lettuce, shredded carrots, zucchini, bean sprouts) and shredded egg omelette (instead of sunny-side-up fried egg like in the bimbimbaps in most Korean restaurants). You can get the Bibimbap to be vegan / vegetarian by ommitting the meat or ordering the tofu version, and you can also get the spicy sauce on the side. All the rice bowls (including the Donburi and Bibimbap varieties) came with miso soup.

    Gurume Sushi in Toronto delivers a delightful dining experience that combines authentic Japanese flavors with a cozy, intimate atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of down-to-earth Japanese dishes, each prepared with care and attention to detail. The classic, partitioned dining booths add a unique touch, creating a sense of privacy and comfort, making it perfect for both small groups and couples. The staff is attentive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable meal from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone seeking quality sushi in a relaxed setting. Saluti

    Aburi Salmon Hako
    Kiran K.

    Maybe the best sushi I've ever had in Toronto... atleast the best I've had recently. I ordered the miso soup, and aburi salmon hako for lunch and both were amazing. A little heads up in case you're trying it for the first time: aburi salmon hako will have a little smoky taste due to it being torched! The service was friendly and incredibly, impressively fast. The interior is decorated perfectly with little Japanese style booths and wooden tables. Would be happy to come back here.

    Amyela A.

    Stopped here during a trip and it was by far the best food I've had the whole time. Love the service and the atmosphere! The menu was also really diverse. Each dish was delicious and well. Would definitely come back here if I wasn't from out of town!

    Destiny F.

    Gurume Sushi was a hidden gem! Every dish we tried was packed with spectacular flavor. The cozy, cute ambiance made the experience even more special. So glad we stumbled upon this spot--it's a must-visit for sushi lovers!

    a beer and a glass on a table
    Gayan P.

    Really exceeded my expectations. For an unassuming place in the heart of the busy city. I had my doubts, walking in. Is it a tourist trap? Turned out to be a fantastic sushi spot. The tables inside are separated out like traditional Japanese rooms, that give group diners a great level of privacy. The establishment may not be Japanese owned but the food is certainly delicious. The service was good as well. Since being here the first time, I've ordered delivery as well. I can count on this place for a sushi fix.

    This was one of those dining experiences where every detail felt intentional…read more The presentation was beautiful without feeling overdone, and each piece was balanced and fresh. You can really tell there's a lot of care behind every course. What stood out to me most was how calm and focused the whole experience felt--it made it easy to slow down and actually enjoy each bite. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I want something a little more special.

    It's been a while since I've had omakase. Yasu was easy to reserve and was under $200pp. The menu…read moreincludes 16 courses which includes 1 appetizer (containing 4 dishes), 12 nigiri, tamago, soup, and dessert. There were three add-ons (toro with caviar $25, uni with caviar $35, and caviar sushi). I opted in for the toro and uni add-ons. It was strange they give you the add-ons before any other nigiri. Everything was very good and fresh. Standouts for me was the appetizer, all three cuts of bluefin tuna, the lobster (by far my favorite), and the hotaru ika. I would've appreciated knowing that the omakase included or not included toro and uni before I decided on the add-ons but I don't regret it. It was a splurge night after all. Service was very attentive. Note that the dining space is very small. 12 seats around the counter and two tables. There was a very loud gentleman two seats from me who never learned to use his inside voice and totally ruined vibe. But that's not on the staff. Another note is that gratuity is automatic on the bill.

We were seated in a separate room from the regular sushi counter. The chef carefully prepared each course in front of us. The Kaiseki portion was served first, and after each course was given to us one of the servers described each dish and its elements. The sushi courses were served afterwards followed by some desserts. They also gave us an extra dessert for the birthday celebrant. Each dish was really thoughtful and tasty, and the fish was really fresh. The highlight was definitely the A5 Wagyu beef course. The beef was so buttery and melted in my mouth. They even explained the quality of the beef and showed us a certificate of the beef's grading. It was worth the splurge for a special occasion! The meal was amazing and the restaurant itself was welcoming and not pretentious at all.
