Stumbled upon this place while I was waiting for my food at Kaiju, as they're located in the same abandoned Shops at Aura food court. I was greeted enthusiastically by the middle-aged man who owns the restaurant. He quickly guided me through the menu and offered suggestions. I told him I just ordered food from Kaiju but I'd be back. I kept my promise and returned a few days later with a gamjatang (pork bone soup) craving to satisfy. I haven't searched too hard, but this is amongst the cheapest gamjatang you can get downtown at $8.50. The gamjatang itself was of average quality and average quantity - 3 large pieces. In addition to the cheap gamjatang, the other thing that stood out about this place was the nice old couple running this place. Much like Kaiju's owners, they seemed like good people just trying to make the most out of the unfortunate location of their business. One suggestion I have is that they offer free sides. I feel like this would put the value of the meal over top and would entice more customers. Give this place a shot - cheap Korean food in the dt core + good service. read more

I love this place! The people who work here are so friendly and kind, as well. I tried the sushi, and also the combo (I was hungry ok). I had the bulgolgi, spicy fried chicken, and I forget the rest. But it was all so good. and it's fresh. Can't wait to come back! read more

The Nut and Veggie bibimbap is extremely delicious, nutritious and filling! For $9 - it's amazing! Janice makes everything fresh and she's very meticulous in her preparation. She puts a lot of care in the food she makes and it really shows. Try their sushi and maki rolls! Absolutely delicious. They also have some off menu Korean dishes like kimbap and chicken rice congee that shouldn't be missed. George and Janice left their award winning sushi restaurant in Burlington to be closer to their kids in Toronto. It's a beautiful story and I hope more people find this hidden gem of Aura. read more

Doesn't look like much but a hole in the wall. First impression that I was gonna get food poisoning but was starving with no other options. Got a salmon avacado sushi roll and the dumplings. WoW! Have had same quality in expensive sushi joint in the U.S. top notch! read more

This place is good! I ate here for the first time today and I like their meal selection. I got the Combo A with rice plus 3 sides and it was well worth the price I paid because I was so full in the end. Taste like home cooked meal too. I would definitely come back here again and eat from their other selections. Such nice people who work here too! read more

They're a little slow and the cashier didn't really know what she was doing. But I had Maki and it was really good.

You can find authentic Korean food here. Try Row vegi & nut bibimbop and Kimchi fried rice. read more

Great find. Enjoyed both the Korean and Japanese fair. The beef Bimimbap was flavourful and better than I have ever had in Winnipeg. The owner recommended to have the veggie dumplings deep fried (can also have them steamed) they were small but packed with flavour. Not sure I would order these again. The tempura was good with two large shrimp but the star was the green dragon. Highly recommend this sushi dish. Will return next time in TO read more

Came here Saturday night. Cheap, fast, great service and really good quality sushi, especially for the price! I'm not going anywhere else for sushi ever. Why would I? read more

First time going to this place for lunch. Tried combo B with spicy pork, deep fried chicken with salad. Spicy pork is pretty tasty but the deep fried chicken is way too hard to get a bite. I still think the price is not reasonable. $10.99 plus taxes and doesn't come with a pop or tea. Don't think I will go back. read more

Their dining experience is quite comfortable. They use decent and fresh materials, and the taste is great. I especially like the texture of their bulgogi. And the owners are really nice. read more

Went down for lunch today and got their Beef Bibimbap. The food was delicious, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the portion was filling. The lady who served me was really nice too. read more

Sushi & BBbop - Beef bibimbap. You can see the beef hiding in the back next to the carrots. Egg runny so you can mix it up with yolk and Korean hot sauce. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Very good and healthy Korean food, the owner is very friendly. I love the raw salmon and veg on rice. Their sushi dishes are pretty good too read more

Sushi & BBbop - Raw salmon and veg bibimbop - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

A gem of a place. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Great food always made fresh. It sucks that they don't get more business due to its obscure location - they deserve better! read more

I've tried most of the meals of this place and it was really delicious and the wife and husband who own the restaurant greet you enthusiastically quickly guided me through the menu, and offered suggestions, also give awesome service. Also they help me out with Korean homework sometimes. One suggestion I have is that they offer free sides. I feel like this would put the value of the meal over top and would entice more customers. Another suggestion i have to offer is that they should update their music video playlist to pull in new customers. I had the black bean noodles, spicy rice cakes, raw vegi, beef, chicken bimbibop ramen, sushi Overall I love the food, the awesome service and they made me feel so welcomed. read more

This is the third sushi place i have tried since last one week i came here after watching all reveiws on yelp.its worth trying.

The owners here are so sweet and friendly! The food here is cheap, quick and so good! The bulgogi+japchae combo is totally worth it- its like, $10 for 6 pieces of mandoo, kimchi and a lot of bulgogi and clear noodles. Their kimchi fried rice is also really tasty. read more

My absolutely favorite place to eat dynamite roll and pork bone soup! The couple is so friendly and nice every time I visit. I genuinely recommend this place to everyone! read more

I ordered pork bone soup and it was mediocore with no side dishes that usual Korean restaurants provide before the meals. I understand that this is only food court food, but that should be reflected in its price too. The cost is the same if not more than other Korean restaurants. read more

I ordered chicken katsu and the chicken is soooo not crispy. The curry sauce is spicy and sour, unlike those japanese curry sauce which is supposed to be sweet :( read more

Always tasty food (both sushi and Korean) at very reasonable prices. It looks like a mom and pop shop and they're always very kind.

A real find, tucked away inside the Aura food court. Frankly, I would never have discovered this place if it weren't for Yelp; the location is so inconspicuous, and there's no signage outside of the condos to indicate the kinds of eateries inside. Don't let the food court trappings fool you: Sushi & BBbop serves restaurant-quality meals, for very reasonable prices - after taxes, very few of the menu options cost more than $9 or $10. If you're eating in (and there's always plenty of space in the cafeteria), they will even bring your meal out to you. Both the portions and quality are ideal. I've never had to wait longer than 3 minutes for my order to be completed, and I've never been less than completely satisfied or sated. From the pork bone soup to the jajangmyeon - everything is well-made, and far more homestyle than fast food. (Disclaimer: I haven't tried any of the Japanese items. Yet!) I agree with another reviewer that the lack of banchan and water perhaps compares unfavourably with a full-fledged Korean establishment, but on the other hand, they don't charge gratuities, even though they probably could: the wonderful couple who run Sushi & BBbop are incredibly polite, friendly, and welcoming. And there's virtually no wait time. The combination of the service and quality of a regular restaurant with the convenience, price, and speed of a food court location are hard to beat. Strongly recommended - give them a try! read more

Service: - quick and friendly service - this was unexpected as they deliver to your seats even though it was in a food court Food: - ordered the novelty kimchi fries - fries were yellow, crispy and crunchy - kimchi and other toppings including the beef reminds you of poutine - fusion between fries and kimchi would have seemed to be odd at first, but it turns out to be tasty - next time, would want to try out their other stuff on the menu Overall: - located in an underground food court: what can you really expect other than the fact that they were nice enough to deliver the food (can't ask for more, can we) - ambient and quiet since the rest of the food court seems to be kinda empty read more

A friendly husband and wife make fresh and tasty bbimbbap, pork bone soup, and other standard Korean dishes. Friendly, fast and reasonably priced. Always enjoy coming here! read more

I live in the Auro building and am a return customer of this restaurant. My gf and I both really enjoy the Sushi here. Their dragon rolls are incredible. Price is right and they make everything super quick. I've also tried the pork bone soup and really enjoyed it... need to try the Korean food still. The owner doesn't give enough soya sauce though.. so ask for more read more

Fantastic food (coming from a family of Koreans) and great service. I'll definitely be going again.

This place is the best. I always come here for lunch and dinner. The food is amazing and the price is affordable. The owners are always greeting everyone with a smile and are always welcoming. A very great place to come to! I highly recommend this to everyone in the area. read more

Hidden in the Aura building basement is this gem of Korean restaurant. After having several of their Korean dishes, I found their dishes not only to be delicious but also hearty. To further enhance the experience, the couple running the restaurant are very friendly and accommodating. If you ever get the chance, it is definitely a great place to try. read more

Authentic and super delicious korean food! My friends and I live nearby and we all love this shop. Pork bone soup and rice cake are my personal favs. The owners are the nicest people youll meet. Highly recommend for anyone craves korean and happens to be the neighbourhood. read more

Great taste! Go for the chapchae(glass noodle) with stir fry pork combo and other sides. Kimchi stew is also recommended for those who take the spiciness! read more

Best Korean and Japanese Cuisine I have ever been in downtown!!!! I tried Pork-Bone soup, dynamite roll, Tonkatsu, and combo which consists of any three menu from the lists: fried chicken, Beef Galbi, Japchae, Kimchi, salad and etc... My favorite combo is Galbi + chicken + (Kimchi or salad). As a Korean, I can tell that pork bone soup here is really great and healthy since they make foods with using only least amount of seasoning. Also you will feel that the price is cheap for the amount of food you will get. You all must try here. Best Korean food restaurant!!!! YAY! read more

Could improve but not as good as paninos . I had the bibimbap it was really good like really awesome. Everyone else also agreed it was dope that I went with. So yeah fantastic food but could improve the girl at the desk is really cute too. read more

The place is great! I love the veggie Bibimbop. It is very healthy and tasty! The owner is also very friendly and I was surprised as to how good the food was. read more

Sushi & BBbop - Raw veggie bibimbap with brown rice - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Vegetable bibimbop at this place is one of the best bibimbop I have ever had (this is a big statement because I have lived most of my life in Korea). It is very unique in that they put ground nuts and black sesame.. it not just tastes good, but smells so appetizing. Other menus that I love to order are pork bone soup, soft tofu soup, kimchi soup, and 7 piece sushi combo. Especially, pork bone soup at this place is better than Kimchi house (on Dundas) or Sunrise house (on Bloor). The Korean owner couple prepare food just like they do for their family, and anything you try at this place simply cannot go wrong. I frequent this place at least once or twice a week! read more

My friends and I from work come and enjoy the raw veggie and nut bibimbop at least once a week. Always fresh and delicious. Actually we crave it! Friendly and welcoming. A favorite, quiet lunch spot. We feel like it's a secret!! But...love it so much I want others to experience it. read more

Hidden & Buried treasure! Amazing little spot in the graveyard that is the Aura basement. Made fresh to order, it does take a bit of time but well worth the wait. $7.99 combo let's you pick 3 sides plus rice or noodles. You won't be disappointed read more

I come here all the time! Delicious food and nice owners. The place is in the spacious and secluded food court.

This is truly a hidden gem as others raved. I love all dishes that I have tried, especially the beef gimbap. The owners are very sweet which is a plus. read more

Sushi & BBbop is an excellent restaurant to have a delicious and home-made healthy meal! I'm really glad to have discovered it by chance and will surely return there and highly recommend! It is owned by a lovely Corean couple, who still care about quality and service. Yes I called this little shop in a food court "restaurant" on purpose, because the food is restaurant quality/level. And I called it "home-made", because it is made by the lady as she would make it at home. It is located in a half-empty food court at the bottom of the Aura condos and shops building, simple and quiet place to sit and have a great meal. Had the chance to try the raw veggy bibimbop with brown rice and spicy sauce, and the pumpkin soup - mmmm. Both excellent! Try it for yourself, and enjoy! read more
