We also ordered the Lobster Taco which was amazing. I highly recommended trying this! It's so flavorful. We also ordered the Korean karrage taco but I didn't really care for it. It's good but the Lobster taco was my favorite! And of course, we had to try the giant Nigiri which was great.

I came here for the giant salmon nigiri because I've been wanting to try it so bad! Unfortunately I…read morewas really disappointed. The only "giant" thing about the order is the mountain of rice that a very thin, translucent piece of salmon covers. Inside the middle of the rice is also a sweet potato mash which I thought was unnecessary and not really good. The only reason I am giving two stars is because the waitress was really nice and even allowed our miso soup to be on the house because it was our anniversary and our Bruno Mars concert for the evening was cancelled due to weather.

This place has potential. I have had a couple of deliveries from them and being in close proximity…read moreI have gotten to enjoy my sushi within the grace period (imo sushi doesn't lend itself to sitting around and should be consumed quickly after assembly) They are priced on the higher side and can get pretty pricey if one wants to indulge (uni galore) The food is packaged well. The nigiri was decent on both deliveries with the rolls being a tad above average. I was tempted to order a bowl but wanted a more filling option. With my go to spot for sushi delivery not showing any signs of revival. This might fill the void for now. 3.5 stars

Yuzuki takes sushi to the next level with its selection of premium fish. Each piece is sourced with…read morecare, offering a variety rarely seen in many other places in Toronto.

They also serve rarer options like golden eye snapper (kinmedai) and amberjack, Otoro, chutoro, unagi, amago, and more; each prepared to highlight its unique flavors and textures.

This was one of those dining experiences where every detail felt intentional…read more The presentation was beautiful without feeling overdone, and each piece was balanced and fresh. You can really tell there's a lot of care behind every course. What stood out to me most was how calm and focused the whole experience felt--it made it easy to slow down and actually enjoy each bite. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I want something a little more special.

It's been a while since I've had omakase. Yasu was easy to reserve and was under $200pp. The menu…read moreincludes 16 courses which includes 1 appetizer (containing 4 dishes), 12 nigiri, tamago, soup, and dessert. There were three add-ons (toro with caviar $25, uni with caviar $35, and caviar sushi). I opted in for the toro and uni add-ons. It was strange they give you the add-ons before any other nigiri. Everything was very good and fresh. Standouts for me was the appetizer, all three cuts of bluefin tuna, the lobster (by far my favorite), and the hotaru ika. I would've appreciated knowing that the omakase included or not included toro and uni before I decided on the add-ons but I don't regret it. It was a splurge night after all. Service was very attentive. Note that the dining space is very small. 12 seats around the counter and two tables. There was a very loud gentleman two seats from me who never learned to use his inside voice and totally ruined vibe. But that's not on the staff. Another note is that gratuity is automatic on the bill.

Great spot for small plates and drinks!…read more Love the vibes here. It really does remind me of Japanese izakaya. Their pressed sushi is a signature! Dont skip on the karaage cuz the sauce with a onsen egg is bomb! It can get busy and its a small place. So go early!

We were seated in a separate room from the regular sushi counter. The chef carefully prepared each course in front of us. The Kaiseki portion was served first, and after each course was given to us one of the servers described each dish and its elements. The sushi courses were served afterwards followed by some desserts. They also gave us an extra dessert for the birthday celebrant. Each dish was really thoughtful and tasty, and the fish was really fresh. The highlight was definitely the A5 Wagyu beef course. The beef was so buttery and melted in my mouth. They even explained the quality of the beef and showed us a certificate of the beef's grading. It was worth the splurge for a special occasion! The meal was amazing and the restaurant itself was welcoming and not pretentious at all.

The chef and staff were all very professional and attentive throughout the night. The omakase lasted about an hour and a half with around 14 pieces/courses including soup and dessert.

I would say ambience is not the best, it's definitely meant to be a supermarket and not a restaurant so I found it kind of stuffy, just some chairs at a bar table along the wall and 1 table with 2 chairs. I was the only one dining in on this Sunday afternoon so I took the table. The waitress brings you a cup of water (no tea) and the wasabi soy sauce and disposable chopsticks. The food i would give 4 stars, uni was sweet and creamy and my favorites the sweet shrimp and scallop can do no wrong. The squid/octopus was also quite good. The other pieces I would say weren't quite as good as from what I'm used to expecting at Hana Don and the portion size was on the small size but it does come with salad and miso soup.

The ambiance was a small place it was a takeout sushi place, and I was so full but completely satisfied. My favourite was the crispy spicy salmon roll, the sushi melts in your mouth.
