Favourite casual take out sushi in Toronto. Only available for take out. Chirashi bowls are good. The party platters are great. Torched sushi is good too. Friendly service. It can get busy on holidays so order ahead and give yourself atleast an hour on those occasions. Party tray E has chutoro, scallop, sweet shrimp. Typically items that would be premium.
One of the better sushi spots in Toronto. The fish was fresh and sashimi was thick cut. You could tell they source quality ingredients. Got the party platter D, which is the perfect value and amount for 2 people. The packaging is also very sturdy and clean. Pick up was seamless, food was ready on time. Highly recommend and will be ordering again when I have a sushi craving!
I ordered in or pick up at this location on their website over the last long weekend. The pick up process was seamless, the only situation that stressed me out a little was the street parking as I wasn't sure what to expect along Jarvis at 6pm on a Saturday. Luckily, I was able to find a parking spot in front of the restaurant so I made a quick run for my food. I bought the salmon combo and the deluxe roll combo for dinner and was the perfect portion for 2. I have always bought take out from the Woodbine location uptown, the downtown location did not disappoint and their quality is very consistent. Now that I know what to expect of their parking situation, I'd definitely order on their website for pick up again in the future.
This is the best place I've had in Toronto for take out sushi and sashimi! The presentation is so thoughtful, love the takeout boxes the platters come in. We ordered their party tray D, bbq eel roll, edamame and vegetable tempura and it was enough to feed five of us! The fish is always so fresh and it comes with generous amounts of ginger, wasabi and soy sauce. They only do takeout and It's always busy but the service is great, super fast.
J San Sushi Bar is one of the best spots for sushi takeout in the city, in my opinion. What I like best about this place: - High quality of sushi and sashimi (always fresh). - Very nice and elegant presentation and packaging. All food items are served in high-quality wooden-like boxes with proper lids, not styrofoam containers that most other take-out places use. It gives a "high-end" feel for take-out sushi. - The online ordering system is seamless for both pick-up / take-out and delivery. It gives quite a high amount of customizations you can make for each order (e.g. you can select 'no' to certain ingredients). - Quick and easy pick-up. After ordering online, they give a time estimate of when the food will be ready, and they send you a text message when the food is ready for pick-up. - Good rice-to-content ratio in the sushi rolls (more protein and content compared to rice). - They give the option of "no sauce" for the Unagi Donburi, which I appreciate. (I'm not a big fan of the sweet and sticky unagi sauce, but I like eel, so it's great that they provide this option.) J San is the only restaurant I've encountered (so far) that provides this option. When the Unagi Donburi came out, there is still a light touch of sauce on the unagi... just enough to make it flavourful, but not drenched in thick sweet sauce like in some other places. Even the yellow pickled radish it came with tasted fresh, crunchy, and not overly pickled-y. The downside for me was the Aburi / Torched Sushi Combo. I didn't like the sauces they put on the torched sushi (sweet yellow mango-like sauce on the salmon, tons of mayo on the shrimps and scallops). But all the other menu items (sushi, sashimi, donburi) are excellent.
(Note: review is for delivery) This might sound a bit weird, but the best way to describe J San is hefty. I got the torch sushi and roll combo delivered and it was big and packed and heavy. To be clear, that's not bad. I guess I just like my sushi a bit more refined, especially at the $20 price point. But that's just personal preference. There was nothing wrong with J San. Maybe they could've torched the salmon/tuna/scallop/shrimp a tad more, but they were all tasty nonetheless. And the accompanying dragon roll was a mouthful (in a good way). Overall, happy I tried it. Not sure I'd go back, but that's just me. I can see why J San is popular on here, and think it's definitely worth a try.
I almost want to leave this review out to keep delivery times quick for myself, but J San is probably one of the best and most consistent sushi places in downtown Toronto. You're likely here from ubereats and looking for a good deal, and I can confirm that J San delivers it. The sushi is quite fresh and has the deep fish flavours you expect in every piece of nigiri and sashimi. The rolls are better than expected, especially the spicy salmon roll, which packs a great salmon flavour with minimal tempura filler. The restaurant itself operates as a takeout only, so there is no service or ambiance component to this review.
If you are looking for reasonably priced and fresh sushi, look no further. We tried the deluxe sashimi combo, torched sushi combo and J San Roll. The sashimi was fresh and pretty thick pieces. The torched sushi was pretty good although I feel like they were slightly over cooked. I would not recommend the J san roll. I wasn't a fan of the cooked salmon inside the roll, and there was prob not enough sauce so it was quite tasteless. The place gets super busy during lunch/dinner hours. We called in right when they opened at 11 on a sat, and was told it will be ready 30-40mins. But it ended up taking us almost an hour to get our food. Make sure to call in early! There's 10% off for cash payment.
Ordered the Deluxe Chirashi Don on UberEats, for the price of $27 you get a nice variety of premium fish. Some of the cuts were a bit fishy, especially the octopus maybe because it was a Sunday night? I also wish the rice was softer and not a loose. Overall kind of bummed out, I had high hopes because of the good reviews and high rating for this place. Maybe down the road, ill give them a try again.
Torched sushi and roll box is usually my go-to order for lunch if I'm craving sushi and working downtown that day. The dining room is typically closed during lunch as they are quite slammed w/ takeout orders it seems. I think the box would be great value if it sat around $18-19. $20+ makes it a lil pricey admittedly but it's prolly the best sushi spot that's near my workplace and within walking distance. Fresh, well-vinegared rice and nice room temp torched fish. One thing I will know for next time is order online ahead of time so that I don't make the walk and have to wait 20-25 min next time (which is what I and my colleague did). They did make our orders faster than the ETA they gave us though which was efficient in terms of service. Will continue to be a staple in my work lunch lineup as long as they don't raise the price! read more

This J San location downtown has some of the freshest seafood and value for the price. Both party trays and sets have a good variety and selection. When getting the deluxe combos, make sure you don't come too late or their premium set selections might run out of uni. read more

Amazing sushi. Each piece quite literally melted in my mouth and tasted so high quality. There was one particular fish in this set that both my partner and I did not like very much but aside from that, I'd give it a solid 9.5/10. read more

Take out only. This is our go to place as their fish is always so fresh and their portions are great for the price. Service is minimal since it is take out but the times we've gone for pickup it has been fine. Love this place ! read more

In general, the freshness is there and the delivery speed is exceptional. I have ordered twice now and both times, none of my notes were followed, which can be dangerous if you have food allergies that are easily avoided. I also asked for chopsticks and both times received none so I had to eat with my hands. The sashimi was very good, except for the tuna, which smelled and tasted exactly like the tuna cat food I used to give my cat 20 years ago. I don't think I can ever eat tuna sashimi again after this experience. The rest of the sashimi was excellent. The next order I asked for no tuna and they gave me double! I had to throw it out. I also chose "no egg" in their drop down menu and they gave me egg, which I also had to throw out. The avocado on the salad was plentiful so that was good. I would order again if I knew they could follow my notes. read more

Got the Party Tray A ($47.95) which comes with a bunch of different rolls. One of the best sushi places in Toronto. I have been here several times (5+) and the sushi is always super fresh. I've also gotten other dishes like the fried udon and fried rice and they are also very good too. Definitely recommend to get the rolls here however. The lunch specials ($12.99) here are also a relatively good deal. The lunch special is available every weekday from 11am-3pm and the item rotates every day. There is a discount too if you pay in cash. read more

J San Sushi Bar is a sushi restaurant located near the intersection of Jarvis/Dundas where they serve a variety of Japanese food, mainly sushi and sashimi. I've been seeing others try this place so I was curious about their quality and price as well (and their packaging is on point!). I can't say much about how big the restaurant is as it is currently take out only due to pandemic restrictions. I was able to order on the website where the restaurant texts you an approximate pick up time (took about 25-30 min). Upon arriving at the restaurant, my order was completed where I promptly picked up my food. I opted to pay for my food in cash since I got a 10% discount. As for the items I selected, I ordered 2 J san combos (the deluxe sashimi combo and torched sushi and roll combo) as well as a uni nigiri sushi (comes with 2 pieces). Price wise, definitely very reasonable pricing! Food wise, the presentation of the sushi was definitely unique with the wooden boxes. Both my combos tasted great and the quality of the fish was good. The uni nigiri was also loade with sea urchin. Overall, great sushi place round Jarvis and Dundas. Would not hesitate to order from them again! read more
This is my second time ordering from this venue. Presentation and price wise they are definitely 4/5. The reason I am giving it a 3/5 is because I felt that the quality of my recent order was a little low. The uni and shrimp wasn't as fresh. Overall, given its proximity to the core, it's definitely a bang for your bucks. Previously I ordered their deluxe sashimi meal (18 pieces for 24$), aburi sushi. and rolls. As I wasn't the biggest fan of their aburi sushi or rolls (they were decent, just nothing special), my recent order only consisted of their deluxe sashimi meal. read more
I've been here twice now and each time I've been satisfied! Not only they are prompt with their orders but also their food is top notch! Super delicious, fresh, and beautiful presentation! I've recommended this place to a few coworkers and they all say the same thing: quality sushi with affordable pricing! read more

J San hits the spot! Stumbled across this place on Uber Eats last year, and I keep finding myself ordering every month. I'm a big fan of their Deluxe Chirashidon and I've never been disappointed yet with the variety and freshness of the offerings. To date, I've seen a familiar rotation of sweet shrimp, tamago, hamachi, uni, salmon belly, salmon roe, and scallop, alongside the staples of salmon, tuna, and octopus. Always a great surprise to see creamy uni or sweet scallops in my box. Tucked underneath the 15 pieces of premium sashimi is a bed of Japanese rice that's perfectly cooked, sprinkled with just enough furikake throughout to give some extra flavour. I've also tried their normal Chirashidon for $8 less than the Deluxe just to compare the difference, and their Deluxe Sashimi Combo - in my opinion, you're better off with the Deluxe Chirashidon (more bang for your buck). Not sure if I was unlucky with my orders, but the former 2 seem to be quite inconsistent with the quality of the fish. Nothing exciting and screaming at me for repeat orders. I've got no complaints about their torched sushi - simply delicious. Playing some favouritism here, but you guessed it, I still prefer and recommend their Deluxe Chirashidon over anything else. Some minor comments on their sashimi cuts though - although I enjoy thick cuts, I do wish they would slice certain offerings thinner. Most common is a thick cut of hamachi, where it actually resembles a large chunk rather than a beautiful slice of fish. I also wish the daikon is tucked underneath the cucumber, rather than the other way around - sometimes I don't realize the sashimi is resting against the daikon until I see slight discoloration from the pickling. Just my personal preference. If you're ever in the area, give this place a try! read more

4.6/5 This place is only takeout, however they were efficient with my roommates and I orders despite us ordering during the busier time. Overall the food was really good for the prices and seemed pretty fresh, I'm not an expert by any means but I am particular about the quality of fish I eat. My roommates loved their rolls as well, only had positive things to say. I would definitely come back here again. read more

Ordered the torched sushi & roll combo with a side of seaweed salad for takeout over lunch. It came delivered super fresh and tasty ! Would highly recommend and the portion sizes were generous especially with the seaweed salad ! read more
Have ordered from J San twice and it hasn't disappointed yet. I found the sushi was fresh and the rolls itself were large in size. It's also packed nicely in a wooden takeout box, making it look more premium than your average sushi takeout. Would come back here again to satisfy my sushi craving! read more
After getting takeout here I'm not sure if I would get sushi takeout anywhere else in Toronto . We got a the Deluxe roll set combo (20pc) and torched sushi and roll combo (13pc). The rolls and nigiri sushi had great fish to rice ratio which was really surprising for the affordable price. My favourite is the ultimate dragon roll set and the torched sushi. The fish was fresh, and the flavours were amazing! I would highly recommend getting take out here, amazing value. read more
Whenever we're in the area, we love to order J San. Their fish is typically very fresh. We love their chirashi, but unfortunately, they changed it and removed the furikake they used to put in between the rice. We've also tried their combos and party trays in the past, and they don't disappoint. . read more

Picked up a torched sushi and roll combo for lunch which came with 5 different pieces of sushi and 8 pieces of a roll. The food was fresh, smokey from the torching and the rice was cooked well and seasoned properly. 13 pieces doesn't sound like a lot but it was quite filling since the roll was packed with ingredients. I'd say it was priced very reasonably for this quality of food. It was also packaged in a pretty wooden square box. Service was friendly. read more

Large pieces super fresh and amazing. We will be ordering this again. We had the yellowtail, sashimi, salmon, sashimi, octopus, sashimi, and Uni sushi also ultimate dragon roll, spicy, tuna, crunchy and tempura shrimp amazing food all the way around. read more
Great spot! A great go-to for take out sushi that is great value and delicious. I got the Friday lunch special here was was very happy with the experience. I walked by and decided to check this spot out. I noticed it was quite busy (in a good way), lots of people coming and going with their orders. I would highly recommend placing your order in advance online to avoid the wait. read more

The Deluxe Chirashi usually contains salmon, tuna, botan ebi, hamachi, ikura, and a piece of salmon belly (sometimes depending on availability, you'll get toro and/or uni). The pieces have always been fresh and of high quality. The last deluxe chirashi I got didn't have uni :( but the 3 pieces of toro really hit the spot and made up for it. The prices are amazing for the quality that you get, especially downtown. For higher quality than this, one would have to go to Jabistro or something and pay at least double. Too bad you guys don't have a more extensive sushi menu, with things like hokkaidon and sushi omakase of the best 10-15 pieces. If you guys were to have a nigiri sushi omakase, I would definitely try it out. Of course most things depend on availability, but if you guys can keep the Deluxe Chirashi ingredients more consistent (having botan ebi, uni, and toro all/most of the time) that would be the best. Quality: 9/10. Service: 9/10. Value: 9/10. Overall: 9 out of 10. read more
Had delivery from here and I have to say the presentation was super on point! Instead of styrofoam takeout boxes, the sushi is beautifully arranged and presented in a fancy box with clear cover. This really elevates the dine at home experience and perfect for date nights. The rolls itself were delicious. Would order from here again! read more
Can always count on J San for good quality sushi for a decent price! I have only gotten take out from here & can't wait to be able to dine in as the consistent quality of the take out we get is on point. We usually order a variety from sashimi to sushi to desserts and it's now the go to for sushi on Ubereats. Bonus is the great packaging they do for take out that looks great and is sturdy enough for delivery drivers to never have an issue! read more
