I came in without high expectations and ordered a beef teriyaki and my boyfriend ordered a chicken teriyaki bento, because how can you go wrong with that?Disappointing teriyaki bentos... in fact that beef teriyaki was simply beef dipped in soy sauce. Because we didn't like anything we decided to order sushi... but of course that wasn't fresh!!! Price is decent but you may as well go to Sushi on Bloor and actually feel satisfied with your meal. read more

There was a giant caterpillar in my salad... Need I say more!? Well, their explanation was that it's "organic". It was the size and length of my pinky. If you cleaned your veggies at all, it should have come off or at least died! Restaurant is cheap for sure. You get value of 8 rolls instead of 6. But I guess that comes with a side of bug. read more

when Sushi on Bloor is packed over and above just cross the street and you'll end up in this small quiet sushi place. I liked the decorations (red couch seats and benches, traditional cutlery on the displays, guestbooks at each table) and the atmosphere (quiet with a soft background music that doesn't disturb talking). I didn't like that they have just very few veg options (no veg bento boxes... at least none at the non lunch time)... but otherwise a cute sushi place one of many along bloor in the annex. read more

If you are looking for affordable, fresh sushi on the annex, this is the place to go. They have amazing lunch specials & the service is good. read more

I've been coming to Japan sushi since I moved to the Annex a few years ago - of all of the sushi places on that strip between Bathurst and Spadina, it is up there with the best. Extremely friendly service, fresh fish, good quality food (great tempura!) and an extensive and inexpensive lunch menu (7-10$ or so). The only reason my review didn't include a five star rating is that I have been brought the wrong order on two or three occasions - but they're always very gracious and offer to replace it, always bringing a little extra to apologize. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for for good noms on the annex "sushi strip". read more

I will never go back. I used to frequent this place, but made the apparent mistake of bringing in my (non-white/non-asian) girlfriend this evening. There was no line-up. One of the three booths to the right was free. Another of the booths was occupied by two guys having drinks, the other a larger party. As we were being seated my girlfriend asked for a booth, and was told that we can't sit at a booth at this hour (a little after 8pm.) We sat for a moment and looked back at the two guys sitting in the booth and noticed the other booth clearing out, leaving two free booths. My girlfriend asked again, thinking it weird how there were already two guys at one of the booths, the other two empty, no line-up, and the restaurant well under capacity. The waitress went to get the manager, who came back and explained how they can't sit us there because it gets busy, etc etc. But after pointing out the two gentlemen sitting at one of the booths she sighed and flippantly said "Whatever, sit wherever you want" and walked away angrily. So we felt uncomfortable and left, and as we did so the waitress and manager giggled at us. We found food elsewhere, and as we passed by maybe 30 minutes later noticed that the other two booths that had been empty were all seated with two-people per booth, with the third two-people per booth. So yeah, bad service & unprofessional immature staff. We won't be back. Also, fill in the subtext regarding the skin colour of the people who were allowed to get the seating they requested. read more

I went here this weekend (june 27). the food was super affordable and the washrooms was clean. i would definitely go back.

This is my favourite sushi place in the Annex. service and food are always quality. They have a patio but limited spaces. The wooden exterior may be a little old fashion but I feel it brings a more comfortable setting. Try the sushi and the free jap chae appetizer. I recommend this place to my friends. read more

This place is my favourite one when I'm up for sushi. It is never too crowded, the interior is welcoming, and prices make you think about one more portion. read more

We got skip the dishes, and the food was excellent. Great sashimi, and sushi rolls were large and flavourful.

Sushi on bloor was too busy and packed and we were starving so we walked around and saw this place was empty. The food tasted okay. The spring rolls were good, the hot pot filled with rice, veggies and other stuff tasted okay. i prolly couldve made the same thing at home better....and my friend got beer strips or whatever it was called and he said it tasted like campbells pre made sauce LOL i cant judge his food because i dont eat meat but ya the restaurant is good to keep you full for a few hours but dont expect delish food. damn sushi on bloor..always too busy! read more

the food was good for the price but i wouldn't go again for their sushi. The sushi was not very fresh and seemed like it had been pre made before ordering. although the sushi was only satisfactory the service was still very good and i appreciated the side dishes they had brought out. not the best place to get sushi but still a good restaurant. read more

Delicious food, generous portions, good prices, professional service, calm atmosphere. The most reliable sushi place I've encountered in Toronto. Always good. Have been going there for years. Would recommend to anyone. read more

There are so many sushi restaurants in Toronto, including a half dozen choices within two blocks of this place. We came here to branch out because we'd had Sushi on Bloor just recently. We both ended up with bento boxes. The food was ok, but great and not as good as sushi on bloor. Still, not a bad spot for a quick cheap meal, it's just not a stand out and there are so many other options around. read more

The place is a bit run down and dark but the servers are very friendly. The menu is huge, and I like they had a separate vegetarian section. There are plenty of combos to choose from. The prices are great. The food tasted like any other sushi restaurant. The green salad was quite watery though. read more

I love it here. I usually come here for the Korean dishes since not too many Korean places have vegetarian options. I love the vegetable and tofu bim bap. It was so good. I also had the chap jae which was prepared really well. It wasn't greasy and it had a nice sesame flavour. The service was friendly and quick as well. The prices are very decent considering that you get a lot of food for your money. This place is definitely on my coming back list. I cannot think of a reason not to love this place. It is amazing here. read more

One of the better Sushi joints in the Annex, but it doesn't seem to be very popular. Big on taste, and portions. I had the Golden Dragon Roll, and it was delicious! Great ambiance too :) read more

Good food for good price ... Customer service is excellent ... They gave us fee dumplings for being regular ... Sweet

My boyfriend and I went here to eat earlier this week and we had a terrible experience. They served us spoilt sashimi. My boyfriend ate a piece and it tasted terrible. After smelling a second piece of the same fish, we realized the fish had gone bad. When we told our waitress, who then told the sushi chef, they offered to give us a different type of sashimi, but by then we were too disgusted to want to continue eating. They did not apologize or offer to give us a discount on our meal. We were really disappointed by both the food and how they handled the situation. We will never return here again. read more

One of my favourite sushi places. The taste is good, the portions are generous, the staff is friendly, and the relaxing atmosphere is good for hanging out with friends. read more

I can't say enough nice things about them. Other than being the best sushi in the Annex, ordered a platter from them for a meeting we were having. Not only did the rolls look & taste great, but they threw in several extras (gyoza & chae noodles etc). And it was too much for me to carry, so the chef threw on his coat and walked it over to my building!!! My high profile guests loved the food. And, it's cheaper than others in the area. read more

Japan Sushi is by far the best sushi restaurant on Bloor, hands down. Miso soup, yam noodles, and green tea come free with all meals. The sushi rolls are delicious and generous. In particular, the Veggie Queen roll and the Boston and Chicago rolls are unreal. The staff are all incredibly sweet and friendly and treat their customers like their own. Looks like a bit of a hole in the wall but the food and the people make up for it. Highly recommended. read more

I have been to Japan Sushi a number of times but only recently returned to this establishment. It is one of the quieter restos in the Annex sushi circuit. The little outdoor seating in the front provides a couple cute tables that add some character and set a more chillaxed vibe as you walk in off Bloor. The food prices are very reasonable and competitive with the other options nearby. They offer a large variety of typical Japanese restaurant foods as well as few different combination possibilities. It seems that their huge 10pc special rolls are most popular and rightfully so. The appetizers and maki are pretty standard however they do include Korean hot foods like bibimbap inside their "well used" menus. Bonus points for the kind and attentive service. The special rolls were all great at around $9, but overall fish quality was mediocre, the salad to start was too vinegary, the Miso was watered down, and the rice was hard. Overall, I like the variety of the menu and the price is great however quality was under that of say New Gen or Sushi on Bloor. read more

Price: Quite cheap Rolls: Delicious!! Sushi: no. just no. Miso soup and salad that began the meal was a failure which quickly diminished our appetite. So if you ever want a cheap lunch that doesn't include sashimi or sushi, it's a great place to be! However, if you are looking for fresh fish, try somewhere else! read more

The atmosphere leaves me wanting, but the great vegetarian options (veggie sushi combo!) bring me back. and those noodles they always give as an appetizer. and the booths are not too bad. read more
