I am reviewing Saku Sushi from a second delivery that was recently made. Obviously getting sushi delivered is not the optimal way to enjoy it but we have been impressed both times we ordered. Best options- Sushi sampler (nice chef's choices some tuna, salmon, white fish); Salmon Aburi, Atlantic queen roll, Saku roll, BC Tuna roll, Spider roll... all delicious. typically you need to sacrifice quality nigiri at a place that has amazing rolls.. not the case with Saku... the nigiri is perfectly sized, rice was very nice. overall looking forward to delivery #3! read more

Pickled. Feet. Came in here around 6pm with my friend today, and it smelled like vinegar and feet, real funky. But it was fine, by the time we finished ordering, we got used to the smell. We ordered the Yuzu Sashimi Salad, Energy Special Roll, Spicy Scallop Roll, and Tuna Avocado Pressed Sushi. Out of all of the items we ordered, the Yuzu Sashimi Salad was our favourite. The seasoning on the sashimi pieces were bright and clean-tasting without being too acidic. The only thing I think they could improve was chilling the lettuce, the lettuce the sashimi bits were served on were a little warm and a little mushy. The sushi we had was average. We didn't enjoy it! Maybe it was our choice and selection, but all of the rolls we got were too heavy and too rich. When we walked in, we saw other tables with these long, big rolls, so we wanted to order some too. Hence, we got the Energy Roll. It has fried prawn, avocado, spicy tuna, and deep fried unagi, but you can barely taste anything but the tempura batter and the avocado because it's such a mess of rich flavours. The Spicy Scallop Roll was also a bit of a fail. I saw it a couple of times while scrolling through photos posted for Saku, so I thought I would order it. It's tempura scallop bits with spicy mayo. Waaaaay too rich, and it was soft and mushy too. It could really use something like cucumber to lighten it up and add some texture variation. The Tuna Avocado Pressed Sushi was a little better. It's cooked tuna and avocado pressed with sushi rice. The thing is, there's something strange with the rice here. It's seasoned like sushi rice, but it's long grain like jasmine rice, and doesn't have as much chew as sushi rice. Anyway. This was pretty good. The only problem I had with it was that two of the pieces on our plate had no avocado in them. Overall, I wouldn't come here again. read more

We decided to pop into the first sushi place we saw while walking downtown, and made it in time for the lunch special. This location is quite modern with modern music as well as a chic interior. The lunch menu includes several options, one of which my boyfriend and I decided was perfect which was the always affordable sushi roll set. It came with a California roll, spicy Salmon roll, and I believe crab, all 6 pieces each. It was more than filling and we could've easily split just one order. Everything was very fresh and tasted great. The only negative aspect is the service. I was actually surprised at the ambivalence and even borderline animosity from the staff. It was so surprisingly bad that I would not recommend going to this place for that reason alone. read more

Really good sushi located on Queen street. What I like about this place is the prices are not ridiculously expensive and the quality you get is fantastic. The rolls are quite unique and tasty. Prices range from $13-15 for special roles. You also get your food quite quickly. I do suggest making reservations because when it gets busy you might be out of luck. Make sure you check in on yelp. You get 10% off a special role. read more

Used to love this place, but the Salmon Avocado Donburi bowl is now priced at $27 for a single serving. Add an order of Gyoza and your meal is now $40. That's well beyond anything that can be justified by inflation and it's highly doubtful I'll be back. It's insane pricing. read more

Tasty and good value! I was surprised to find that we were seated right away on a Friday for lunchtime. Food also comes out pretty quickly, which is great if you have to get back to work relatively soon! Saw a lot of takeout happening as well. A friend and I split a Lion King roll and a torched salmon roll for lunch. I found it pretty filling, though the individual pieces are a bit more than a mouthful. I enjoyed the almost creamy soft texture of the torched salmon roll, but I found the Lion King roll to be a bit more flavourful. Either way they were a nice combo in taste. I can't say that this place is so exceptional that I would hurry back, but it is a solid sushi place among the many in the area. read more

I definitely recommend this cute restaurant for sushi. The price is moderately high but I love the consistency and taste. I've visited with many friends and each time it's been great. I recommend their seared aburi sets the most. Everything is fresh and not covered with overpowering sauces (no strong mayo or spicy mayo etc). Some pieces have a fusion spin to it and some stay true to the Japanese style simplicity. It's a very satisfying and delicious experience. read more

Great sushi restaurant that serve some very unique and delicious maki rolls. Quality is better than the average sushi joint in the downtown core. I found the prices to be very reasonable as a result. The place has a chic and casual vibe to it-with dim lighting and top 40 music playing in the background. My favourite specialty roll here would be their Volcano Roll. They garnish it with fried potato sticks that provide an amazing crunch and texture. Their Spider Roll is also better than average, as it contains perfectly deep fried soft shell crab that you can actually see and taste! Other items on the menu are also unique and representative of the fusion nature of the cuisine. The Miso Eggplant was a pleasant surprise for an app, as it was a silky and tasty preparation of eggplant that you wouldn't find on most Japanese menus. They serve aburi sushi here as well which I would describe as being decent. Not the best I've had in this city, but would suffice for any cravings you might have for some blow torched sushi. All in all, a great spot for fusion maki rolls! As a bonus, you can check in on Yelp to receive 10% off one of their specialty rolls =) read more

Torched sushi and rolls were very good. But other types of dishes were mediocre. But I would still give it a 5 star because the torched sushi and rolls were super delicious and very reasonably priced. The assorted aburi sushi is $24 for for 12 pieces! I didn't expect it to have so many pieces. And they all taste very good. This will become my go-to place for aburi sushi in downtown. I think it's a must have. We had a torched roll (Atlantic queen) and a regular roll (ocean dream). I found the torched roll to be a lot more delicious and special compared to the regular roll. For appetizer we had agedashi tofu. I found it to be pretty mediocre. I probably will not order too many appetizers in the future. read more

The avocado tempura was outstanding. Salmon teriyaki and dynamite roll were good too. Our meal was served on chipped plates. I find this to be a tacky move showing poor etiquette. They tried to smear wasabi over the broken edge of one plate (see picture), so add sloppy on top of tacky. Makes me wonder what else they're cutting corners on. Food and service was good though, so it's befuddling that they'd resort to such acts of cheapness. After all, the aesthetic is an integral part of the dining experience! read more

Saku Sushi - Why serve on broken dinnerware? - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This place is like hipster meets Japanese food and I love it! The cocktails are very sweet, so it might be advisable to ask for them with no sweets (which one person in my party did and hers was perfect, still sweet, but not syrupy). I had the yuzu Toronto and it was delicious with bright hinds of yuzu and lots of mint. The green tea martini was lightly sweet with notes of green tea (get this one with no sweets, and it's still quite sweet). The Rose something just tastes like peach schnapps, so that one can be skipped. Cocktails are 8$ and pitchers are 11$ at happy hour!!!! The sushi and sashimi were amazing, nice big pieces of fish, and all beautifully presented. The agedashi tofu is not really agedashi tofu, but still tasty, the takoyaki is delicious and super hot and fresh! And the bibimpap is hot, fresh and large (it was a lot of rice, but the super delicious). The service was friendly and attentive and food came out quickly. Definitely a place to eat with your eyes and your stomach! read more

My absolute favourite place for a la carte sushi! For it's price, quality and taste, there's nothing else on the market in Toronto right now that serving sushi as amazing as this. The amount of friends I've brought to Saku has been ridiculous as each time I visit, I bring someone new with me. When you're at Saku, make sure to try the torched pressed salmon/tuna rolls, Saku roll, Energy roll and Ocean dream roll. For apps, I strongly recommend their sushi pizza, takoyaki and karaage. Also, for mains, please try unagi kimchi fried rice. That is most underrated item on the menu. Absolutely delicious! Service could be better, however, with food this great you will honestly forget about the service! Japango, Jabistro and Yasu are great quality sushi but for it's price, not everyone can dine on that sort of budget. Saku is a MUST try for sushi lovers in Toronto who enjoys an amazing meal at an unbeatable price. read more

Great place for sushi. I tried the Atlantic Queen and Spider roll. Both great choices but I preferred the Spider roll because of the crunch. Service was good but it did take quite some time for the food to arrive and also to get the bill at the end. Regardless I would still come back for more. read more

Saku Sushi - Spider roll and Atlantic Queen roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This spot was picked by my dinning companions. I was a bit skeptical already due to the middling reviews by some other yelpers I follow. Ah well sushi spots kind of fall in the category between OK to great IMO. This place was a bit of warning sign with a conditional yellow pass posted up front (Nov 16, 2017). Ah well decided to try it anyway. I opted for a tako wasabi starter with miso baked egg plant and a couple of rolls (black dragon and ocean). The beer list is predictable with Sapporo and Asahi represented along with a beer from Japan I wasn't familiar with. Sake list is extensive and with a bunch of options for reds and whites. Tako wasabi was good, same goes for the egg plant. The rolls were a mess IMO as rice texture was bit off (almost mushi) The visual appeal is again geared towards instagram I think. The tastes were off on both rolls with dragon having a strange sweet finish. Hmm I don't think I will revisit as 2 stars for moi. read more

I personally didn't see anything special about their food, it was a pretty average sushi place. I thought that their rice was a bit too soft (too much water ot rice vinegar?) And just overall a very average place that was priced a bit too high for the quality of their food. Their service also wasn't the best, had to ask 3 times every time we wanted anything. read more

I'm not well versed when it comes to Japanese food but the food here was spectacular! They currently have indoor/outdoor dining and my friend and I went for lunch. We ordered the gyoza and seaweed salad to start then I had the Lobster King Roll and my friend ordered the Combo C. Let me start off by saying these rolls are huge! I was only able to get a couple bites in but it was absolutely delicious and fresh. The server was also adorable and very sweet! We were in and out within an hour. I would definitely recommend. read more

I had high expectations for this place and I feel like those expectations muddled my tastebuds. The restaurant is nice and small so I recommend making a reservations because they can get busy. Service was decent - nothing extra but nothing special. We were brought to our seats, they gave us water, took our order and then gave us our bill. Our food came and the presentation was nice but the taste of the sushi was just 'okay'. Maybe we didn't order the right items to really get the full SAKU experience. We ordered the Energy Roll ($13), the Ocean Dream Roll ($13) and the Torched Tuna Roll ($11). They were all decent tasting. The Torched Tuna Roll was my favourite because it was the only roll that had a distinct flavour from the other rolls. The sushi tasted really bland and didn't have any distinct flavors between the fillings and sauce. In reality, it almost tasted like AYCE quality. read more

Saku Sushi - Torched tuna roll, energy roll and ocean dream - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Seriously good sushi in the fashion district. The aburi plate is a must try - for $22 you get a variety of torched sushi. I also had the island roll and the energy roll, both are lightly torched and tasted fantastic. The ceviche starter is a great fusion dish that blends South American and Asian flavours - citrusy, creamy, and fresh. Great alternative to the high end sushi restaurants like Miku or JaBistro. Solid sushi restaurant in the downtown core, give this place a shot when you want to have some quality sushi without the high price you would have to pay at some of the high end places. read more

Saku Sushi - Aburi plate - comes with 12 pieces - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here off a recommendation from a friend who claims that this is the best sushi joint in Toronto, and I'm so glad that I did! No, this is not "cheap", but you're getting HIGH QUALITY sushi for a very very reasonable price in comparison with other sushi spots in Toronto. The special rolls are only $11-$13!!! Whaaaaat... These are practically food court sushi prices at 10x better quality. Corn Karaage: Looks and sounds better than it tasted tbh since I had such high expectations lol but still yummy. I wish it was cut into smaller pieces so that it would be more crunchy and crispy. Tako wasabi: Basically octopus with wasabi sauce. Comes with seaweed which you're supposed to wrap it with. Also yummy though I wish they put a bit less wasabi since my wasabi-tolerance is low Panko soft shell crab: huge portion but not worth in my opinion. Kinda dry. Ocean dream roll: my FAVOURITE ROLL. The cucumber on top of the roll was so refreshing and it was a nice change from all the other sushi Lion king roll: this was my friends favourite roll. Has tuna, potato garnish, and avocado, so you already know it's gonna be creamyyyyy Premium sashimi platter: presented beautifully and came with my favourite things ever: shrimp, scallop, and Uni (lots of it). I was happy with this. Assorted Aburi sushi set: 12 pieces of torched sushi for only 22$ WHAT. So tasty. This is a must try and a big reason for the 5 stars. Salmon pressed sushi: Creamy. This is a staple Green tea-ni: tasted like Arizona green tea but with a hint of alcohol. I liked this and would order this again next time. Never had any alcoholic drink like this! Service: the bartender was very friendly and greeted us when we came in and again when we left. Our server was kinda curt but still provided good service. No complaints All in all, check this place out if you love Japanese food!! I will definitely be returning for that assorted Aburi set and to try more items :) read more

A solid choice for those looking for affordable, quality sushi. With their focus on specialty sushi rolls and torched pressed sushi, this is by no means an "authentic" sushi restaurant. However, their specialty rolls are creative with a good rice to fish ratio and the standard rolls are very solid (love the spicy salmon and negi hamachi rolls). I've also tried their yaki udon & rice dishes - also great options! I usually order the sashimi sample or chef special sashimi which were great the first few times but I found that the value has decreased (less pieces, smaller cut and lower quality selections). Perhaps a la carte sashimi would be a better option. read more

Visited this restaurant a couple of times. It always extremely busy even on a Monday or Tuesday. So it's best to make a reservation to ensure a seat and no wait. One of my favourite things at this restaurant is their creamy croquettes. They were absolutely delicious. The filly was smooth, creamy and cheesy. I've also tried the aburi sushi set. It came with a variety of different nigiri. They were all torched and paired with a different sauce and topping on top. The Sushi was pretty good. They were fresh and flavourful. Sometimes I also order the unagii aburi Sushi on the side because it's extremely delicious. But there's addition charges to make the regular unagi nigiri into an aburi unagi Sushi. I think it was an additional $0.50-$1? I don't remember the exact cost but it's good We've also ordered the salmon oshi and the tuna oshi. To me I felt like the tuna oshi was way better than the salmon one. The salmon oshi was meh, it felt like something was missing. It has a different flavour to it compared to miku and jabistro. But price was pretty reasonable for the portion. Two thing I would not recommend ordering are the wasabi tako and the island rolll. In my opinion, the wasabi tako wasn't really worth it. I didn't really like the taste of it. The flavour was really strong, it went up my nose. But if you like wasabi they it's worth a try. As for the island roll. To me it was just bad. I didn't like the texture of it because of the sweet potato that they topped it with. It tasted like baby food and didn't blend well with the roll. Overall, decent place for some sushi but better for beer and drinks because they have nice specials depending on what day you go. Service was alright but the waiters weren't too attentive the times I went. read more

More of a 3.5 star but service was so off that I'm giving it 2 stars. I went during a Friday evening and called ahead to make reservations for just myself and a friend. We were dining for the first time here. Staff on the phone said they don't take any reservations and it's only walk in basis only. Understanding that, I went in expecting some wait since it was during the time the after work crowd comes in. So like 6-7pm? Came in and found only bar area available. Interior is nice, with wood furnishings everywhere and it was quite packed as expected. Wanted to wait for a booth and they said it was a 40 minute wait. Decided to wait at the bar in the meantime. Imagine my surprise when I see a table clearing and ask the staff if I could get that table, that it was reserved! I told the staff that's strange cause I just called a few hours to make reservations and someone told me I couldn't. I don't have a problem with waiting especially since I knew going in they were busy. However, I was pretty annoyed and unimpressed that someone on their staff would actually lie to a customer. Maybe they are doing it as a tactic so they can take more walk ins and avoid last minute cancellations or maybe staff I spoke to was just having a bad day. Either way, no excuse to lie to a customer and I said so to the staff. They were kinda panicking and talking in Korean amongst themselves (I understand a little so I could catch a few words of "what to do?" Etc). In the end I got the booth cause I think the ppl who reserved were late or something. If it was just this, I would probably not review them so badly but my first impression of this place was not great and does not improve after. Continuously through the night my friend and I had to always flag down a server to get any service. It's busy, I get that but no one even checked up on us. We had to always ask for water, refills, or if we wanted to order other menu items. Sushi was good, I will give you that but the service makes it a turn off. If you go, just try speciality rolls. Yelp check-in gives you a little discount. Will I come back? Not sure, there are plenty of other sushi options out there. read more

This is my new favourite Japanese restaurant in downtown Toronto. I've always been a sucker for Torched sushi so I was really excited to try the torched sushi here! We got three rolls of torched sushi. They exceeded my expectations as they instantly melt in my mouth. The fish was torched perfectly. For dessert, all of us got a different cheesecake. My favourite was the raspberry cheesecake. It had a subtle raspberry flavour that didn't overpower the actual cheesecake taste. To my surprise, the food here is priced fairly reasonably! Will definitely come back! Be sure you make reservations. read more

I've been to this sushi joint a few times since its in my neighbourhood and quite good! I love their yuzu sashimi salad, their rolls and their sparkling peach jelly sake! Must try their sparkling sake if you like ciders and such! The only thing that I ordered and did not like was the saku ceviche. It tasted like pizza sauce to me with the dried herbs and tomato in it. It just tasted weird. I regret getting it the moment I put it in my mouth. If I wanted pizza flavour I would buy pizza or pizza flavoured chips of some sort. My boyfriend also was not a fan of this dish and I dont blame him, I was expecting something a lot different. Even though I did not like that dish I would recommend this place and have and will be back again. I believe foodora delivers from this place. read more

If you've heard a lot of great things about this place, I can confirm Saku serves some pretty bomb sushi for the price you're paying. We went on a busy night (New Year's Eye), and they did not have enough chairs for our table. One of the server (or Manager), went back home in the cold and rainy weather to bring extra chairs back to the restuarant to ensure all our party guests were properly seated, and not sitting on the floor. This was too-notch customer service I rarely experience, and our tip reflected that. If you're looking for a great sushi spot that won't leave a hole in your wallet, this place is definitely worth checking out. For the Instagrammers, be prepared to work with the restaurant's warm and intimately lit ambiance. read more

Came here with a friend for dinner and it was such a lovely experience! The servers were very kind and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked through the door. They were upbeat, very smiley and making sure everything was okay throughout our meal. My friend and I really appreciated that! The food...the sushi was fantastic!! It's super reasonable for the price and you actually feel full after your meal. I know some sushi places may have higher prices and not the best quality but Saku excelled in both price and quality. Everything was fresh, delicious and very nicely displayed. As starters, we got the takoyaki (which I unfortunately forgot to take a photo of) and for mains, I got the dynamite roll and the butterfly roll whereas my friend got the assorted aburi sushi. I would recommend that if you are coming with a friend you each get two-three different types of rolls or one roll each and a sashimi each. The dynamite roll is quite light so get that if you are not too hungry. The butterfly roll however fills you up so I recommend that if you are looking for something heavier. The assorted aburi roll is also another fulfilling dish and you can actually only get that if you're more of a single dish type of gal or guy. Also make sure to look at the specials menu they have on every table because that's where I saw the butterfly roll and am so glad I got to order that! I like the intimate setting of the restaurant but I wish the music was not so loud. The only thing that put me off from giving this a five star was the harsh musical tunes playing which were contradictory to the dark, calming interior of the place. I think this can be quite an easy fix as they can play more instrumental or soft, relaxing background music rather than blaring trap or rap music. It was a bit hard to have a good conversation over those types of songs. However, it is still a must-go to place for sushi!! I really recommend if you are downtown to stop by this restaurant because it will blow you away with its tasty contents! read more

Saku Sushi - The assorted aburi sushi (left), the butterfly roll (Middle) and the dynamite roll (right) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I got the Saku Roll which contained tuna, scallop, coriander, cucumber, and jalapeño. L ordered the Energy Roll which contained prawn tempura, avocado, spicy tuna, and unagi. D's Volcano Roll contained prawn tempura, avocado, spicy salmon, yam, and potato garnish. The rolls were absolutely gorgeous when paired together in the low light restaurant and were decently priced with eight rolls in each one. I liked the size of the rolls; not too big and definitely you were able to fit one entirely into your mouth if you didn't have too many toppings on your roll. I liked the Saku Roll. It was creamy and slightly mushy. I think the mushiness was due to the rice. I didn't taste too much of the scallop which was really the main reason for me ordering this roll -- I wanted scallop in my sushi roll! I liked the sliver of jalapeño on top of the roll that gave it some extra heat. I tried one roll each of the Energy Roll and the Volcano Roll and thought they were both tasty too. D really, really enjoyed her Volcano Roll. Similar to the Saku Roll, I didn't think that the spicy salmon nor the spicy tuna were very apparent in the Volcano and Energy Rolls respectively though. I did like the prawn tempura in the Volcano Roll. The Daily Special Sashimi Platter was smaller than I imagined but for $11 was a really good price for amazingly fresh and delicious sashimi. We all especially liked the salmon sashimi for its fatty cut and smoothness and the hamachi was incredibly soft and melted in your mouth when you ate it. read more

If I could, I'd give this place a 3.5. Coming from Vancouver, I wasn't expecting much for sushi in Toronto in general but my friend recommended it. It was better than what I expected of Toronto. First time I came we got the ocean dream and salmon pressed sushi. It was a good amount of food because of the rice for both of us, and I was impressed at how quickly we got the rolls. Second time we got the fried oyster, tuna pressed sushi and the volcano. Taste: Fried oyster - there were 3 huge fried oysters but it was mostly just the breading/panko that made it look huge although there was plenty of oyster too. Not my fave as I'm not a huge fan of eating that much fried food all at once. Rolls: nice presentation, a little too mayo-y on the tuna pressed sushi. The tuna was pretty thin in comparison to the rice but the one night we got salmon pressed sushi the ratio was good so maybe it depends on the day. Volcano and ocean dream were both decent. Store: We came here on a Wednesday night and had to wait about 10-15 mins to get a booth seat. Good ambiance with a bar to sit/eat at for those who don't want to wait. I also came back on a Friday night and it was pretty busy so my friend and I are at the bar. read more

Calling all NON-SUSHI lovers: this sushi spot tucked away on Queen West will undoubtedly change your perception that sushi is fishy, unappetizing, gross. Okay maybe that's an exaggeration, I know when it comes to sushi people are either haters or lovers - no in betweeners. Regardless, I'm praising this sushi place because it was affordable, delicious, and fresh. To start, I had the sashimi app which was cubed and plated with a tangy, citrusy sauce. Highly recommend getting that dish!! It was neither too sweet or salty. Perfect sauce. Onto the Queen Roll, which had imitation crab and a torched piece of tuna on top.... that's a must. Smoky flavor of fish coated with a sweet glaze and imitation crab (YUUUM). Get get get it. I'll be back to try out more flavors; salivating just writing this post!

I have been going to this place for a few years now and every time I find myself craving good sushi, I think of it. I have never had a miss at this place when it comes to quality of the fish and the taste. My picks: 1. Aburi sushi sampler platter - I think this place does some of the best aburi sushi in Toronto and the prices are very competitive for the quality and preparation of the fish 2. Salmon pressed sushi/tuna pressed sushi 3. Lion king roll 4. Saku roll 5. Chef special sushi - if you're not feeling aburi Last night we also tried the ahi tuna tataki, which was good but I will stick to my usual order. The service has never been rude but keep in mind that service here is not attentive. They leave you with a water bottle when you come in and you fill up your own glass when you want to drink. They will clear plates quickly when they see them empty. But no one is coming by to check up on how you're enjoying your meal. Because there is no need, since it's probably going really well. And if you need something, it's pretty easy to flag someone down. I hope I can count on Saku for years to come. read more

So good! The price is also decent for a la carte sushi. I got the daily sushi sampler ($12) and my friends got lunch dishes without sushi that were similarly priced. The fish and rice both tasted fresh and the portion size was pretty much what I expected. We went right when they opened so there was no wait, but soon after, the restaurant filled up. It's quite a small space, so go early or be ready to wait! read more
