Oryza Sushi is located inside M Cha Bar, a bubble tea shop. This takeout sushi section of the store features party trays, sushi combos, signature/basic rolls, inari, nigiri, donburi, as well as aburi oshi sushi. They recent soft opened where you can grab pre-made sushi combos and rolls at the store or you are also able to call in advance to pick up. They are take out only with no in store seating.
I stopped by M Cha Bar on a Sat afternoon to pick up a sushi combo from Oryza Sushi. Looking at the pre-made items available, I opted for a spicy kani, salmon and nigiri with bluefin tuna for $23.99. Staff mentioned that I was one of their very first customers to grab a sushi box and that they use high quality ingredients where all the tuna seen in the rolls and boxes are bluefin tuna. Moreover, he mentioned that they they try to put more ingredients in the rolls - asking me to look at the fish to rice ratio. Lastly, he also mentioned that all the sauces they use in their rolls are all made in house.
Service was friendly and staff even asked me to try a sample of their gelato in store! The matcha gelato I tried had an intense matcha flavour as they only use ceremonial grade for their gelato. They also had a wide variety of bubble teas to choose from as well. As I paid for my sushi combo box, staff placed it in a bag and provided me with chopsticks as well.
I ate my sushi box when I got home. The quality of the fish was great and the rolls were made well. It was a great delicious meal. The spicy kani roll I got didn't taste spicy to me but it tasted good.
Overall, a great new takeout sushi spot located near Bay and Dundas. It definitely will do well as it is located in the downtown core. Moreover, what is great is that you are also able to pick up bubble tea as well as gelato in the same shop as well! read more
