It was so good that we ended up ordering it again for lunch right before heading to the airport. Everything we tried was incredibly fresh, packed with flavor, and beautifully presented.

We would absolutely come back the next time we're in Toronto!

I can't recommend Hay Sushi enough! I originally went during Summerlicious and ended up going back…read morethree times because it was that good. The atmosphere was relaxed, not overly busy, and we were seated quickly without a reservation, which was a great start. I ordered the assorted nigiri and the salmon noodles, and both were fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. For dessert, the cheesecake was absolutely incredible, and the matcha tiramisu was just as delicious, definitely worth saving room for both. The cocktails were also phenomenal and paired perfectly with the meal. Considering the quality of the food, drinks, and overall experience, the Summerlicious menu was an amazing value. I'll definitely be back, even outside of Summerlicious!

My friend and I were in town and needed to grab lunch and were craving sushi! We arrived on the…read morelater side of lunch and were seated very quickly, with each of us choosing several handrails that spoke to us, as well as the salmon oshi and a couple of drinks. We were both blown away by the salmon oshi, which was delicious! In terms of the handrolls: *King salmon - very simply, but perfectly delicious *Crab - yummy! *Hokkaido scallop - this was my favorite, and if I had any room at the end of the meal, I would have ordered another one (or two) of this! *Spicy shrimp - this was fine *Lobster special - they had a lobster special roll, and this was great! Overall, really lovely experience and would definitely highly recommend!

Hello Nori is a great addition to the casual lite Japanese fare in downtown Toronto. I've walked by…read morebut decided to finally try it on a Friday evening around 8:00pm, it was full but we waited around 10 minutes for the next available seats along the side tables. Service: Friendly but you will need to wave to get their attention. You check off what you want on the order card and the sushi chef will prepare your order at the station in front of you. After you're done, ask for your card and pay at the cashier at the entrance. Taste (8/10) There are Handle Rolls combos ranging from 4-6 pieces but we opted À la Carte to try the 4-5 rolls each: - blue fine tuna (rice covered its flavour) - negitoro (juicy and fatty) - Hokkaido scallop (our favorite) - unagi (cooked eel was big and juicy) - shared the salmon Omi (3 pieces) Drinks: We ordered the lychee zen drinks with infused matcha which was almost not sweet but refreshing. The peach drink is carbonated soda from a can so keep that in mind. Value for Money (8/10): - Whether getting the hand roll set or à la carte each roll works out to be between $8-$10 each. Each hand roll was made to order and seared with charcoal with the flame torch in front of you. The seaweed was fresh and crunchy and paired perfectly with its ingredients. Comfort (7/10): - You are seated on wooden round stools around the chef's table so there's are no backs rests. It's great for a light meal or even a pre drinking place. I loved the little hooks under the counter for coats and bags. Overall the space is neat and modern and it's great for solo dining or small groups of 2-3 people. I would stop by again during lunch time for a quick bite.

We ordered 6 Hand Roll Set, which included Negitoro, Yellowtail, King Salmon, Hokkaido Scallop, Snow Crab, and Truffle Lobster. We also tried the Salmon Oshi, and the daily special Uni Hand Roll. For the drinks, we ordered the Lychee Berry "Chu-hi" and the Rokabiru Highball. My favorites were the Uni Hand Roll, Truffle Lobster, and the Lychee Berry Chu-hi and they were all to die for. I started with the Uni. It was sweet,creamy, fresh, with a clean brininess! That's how you know you're being served a high quality Uni. Then we ended on the Truffle Lobster. With just a bite, the truffle hits you with a rich, earthy aroma, and the lobster brings a natural sweetness that lingers. The Lychee Berry Chu-hi was one of the best drinks I've ever tried. Light, refreshing, fruity without being too sweet, and it complemented everything well. This is a place to visit if you want a great hand roll in the area!

Love how its made to order. They will come check on you and make sure u finished before they make the next one. Keep the seaweed nice and crispy. I find the filling a little underwhelming and very little compared to what i see on instagram. But overall, not bad. They also have happy hour drink!

I came here for lunch with my coworkers and we shared a tasting box plus a few rolls on the side…read more I don't eat cucumber, so I specifically asked for no cucumber in our order and was told it could be swapped with avocado, which I really appreciated. We were also informed it would take about 20 minutes, but it ended up being closer to 40-45 minutes due to the lunchtime rush. Totally understandable though, and the manager was very apologetic and even gave us a $5 coupon for our next visit along with our box. When the food arrived, the presentation of the tasting box was absolutely WOW.. it was so beautifully done. We were honestly just too hungry at that point to admire it for long. Unfortunately, I noticed the first roll I picked still had cucumber in it, and when we flagged it, the staff immediately looked into it. It turned out there was a miscommunication about the substitution, and most of the rolls in the box had cucumber. The manager personally came over, apologized, explained everything, and immediately took care of it by offering to remake the box without cucumber and providing a full refund, which really went above and beyond. Despite the hiccup, the service and care from the team really stood out. Mistakes happen, especially during busy lunch hours, but the way the team responded made a big difference. I'd definitely come back again.

I ordered the dream platter and aburi Syaki oshi. I wasn't expecting it to be nicely packaged and it was a damn shame we threw them out but I almost felt like I paid for the extra nice packaging only to have it be tossed... but it does make an excellent gift for someone who really loves sushi! I wasn't expecting the gold leaf OR edible flower garnish at all. It was a very cute touch on this very snowy day. The oshi sort of fell apart everytime I picked it up which was a shame because it was nicely charred and sweet from the mango. Bit of a personal peeve but I don't think sushi should fall apart when you pick it up with a chopstick. I think it should stay in tact. Next time I'm gonna order takeout and have it delivered so I can feel like I had a nice package of sushi delivered

I love the simple little details, just enough sauce and garnish to add flavour and colour without overwhelming it all. Not sure when this opened, but I'm pretty happy with it. The karaage is a standout too crisp on the outside, but really tender and juicy inside, especially good with the dipping sauce. The gyoza are another win, it's very well-stuffed, nicely pan-fried, and not as greasy, with or without the dipping sauce, it's good. Overall, a really satisfying meal that feels comforting but still a bit special.

Absolutely disgusting experience. I would give zero stars if I could…read more The sushi had barely arrived at the table when I found a hair in the food. I forgot to take a close up picture, but I found this hair in the picture I took before eating. That alone was enough to ruin my appetite, but unfortunately, the hygiene issues only got worse from there. From the food pickup area, I could clearly see into the kitchen, and it looked filthy and poorly maintained. The women's restroom was even more shocking -- one of the toilets was literally covered in feces. I honestly cannot understand how a restaurant serving raw fish can operate with this level of cleanliness. The food itself was also terrible. The sashimi was served at room temperature, did not seem fresh, and the sushi was not good at all. When you are eating raw seafood, freshness and proper temperature are the bare minimum, so this was especially concerning. Between the hair in the food, the dirty kitchen, the horrifying bathroom, and the questionable sashimi, I completely lost confidence in the restaurant's hygiene and food handling. I will absolutely not be returning and cannot recommend this place to anyone.

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.

While both the plain salmon nigiri & aburi one were topped with unagi sauce. the aburi one has truffle mayo inside which really elevated the taste!

Their actual sushi was just okay to me, probably wouldn't come back for that but I'll definitely be back to order 4 aburi pieces for myself!
