I have come to this place a few times and have to say the sushi is good but can tend to be a bit pricey. I recommend their spicy kani salad and toro if they have it on special . read more

This is one of the best Japanese restaurants that I have been. The server is really polite and nice, and the fish is really fresh!! Must try and come!!! read more

Against my better judgment, and solely out of convenience, I gave this place another try last night. I should've known better. Not only do they charge an extra dollar per roll for brown rice, but the rolls really lacked flavor. Sushi can be so fun and really pop in your mouth with all the different combination possibilities but these rolls all essentially tasted the same--flat and boring and bland. Now I'm confident that, even out of convenience, I will not be back. Especially with other very good sushi restaurants nearby. It's a shame, really. We used to love this place! Not sure what happened, but whatever it was, it wasn't good.... read more

A well hidden treasure! The rolls are delicious, fresh and doesn't want to leave my memory.

Toro Sushi has some of the best sushi in the area. The fish is alway fresh and literally melts in your mouth. My favorite roll is the Fire Dragon Roll. The sushi chefs are excellently trained and know how to enhance the flavor of the fish by combining difference flavors using sauces and other toppings. Will def come eat again! read more

To be honest, I was not very impressed. I've been here twice now, and I just did not get a good impression either time. I've had rolls (shrimp tempura, tuna, and spicy tuna) and assorted sashimi here. Some of the fish was decent, but some did not taste the freshest to me. I'm sorry to say it, but in my mind there's no comparison to Dai Kitchi. One positive is the convenience- we walked in on a Friday without reservations during dinnertime and were seated immediately. The liquor store right next door is also convenient, so you can BYOB. read more

this is my favorite spot to go to for sushi ! i love toro out of every other japanese restaurant in montclair !! toro has very good service and food quality. the freshest sushi and their takeout and delivery timing is on point. their fine dining service is very good. best sushi in montclair. read more

Really nice. Came here the second time and the employees are still very friendly. We were settled down really fast even though it was really busy. We tried the dish Peking duck bun that many other customers recommended and I enjoyed it. read more

We have been going here since we moved to the neighborhood 4 years ago. Solid and consistent. Great special fish every time we go in. Kid friendly and attentive service. Big thumbs up. read more

All the sushi was fresh and presented in an appealing way. The waitress was nothing but courteous and nice. Didn't enjoy the sushi "pizza" as the bread was a bit soggy. Other than that - great little spot! Would certainly go back. Byob doesn't hurt either read more

BYOB! THE ROLLS ARE AMAZING! its alil hidden in upper monticlair but worth it... perfect for just a quite conversation type dinner... tempura anything is great as well as fire dragon rolls read more

I stopped in for their two roll lunch special. The guy with me had then same exact thing I did. You get the option of soup or salad, we both chose the miso soup. The two rolls we chose were the shrimp tempura roll and the California roll. Check was a little over $19.00 for two people to have lunch so it was worth it. I'm in this area often and will stop in agAin soon! read more

As far as quality relative to the sushi and sashimi, this is probably the best spot in town as there are many average sushi joints in Montclair. The only negative is the service levels at half capacity and above...I really don't get how a restaurant doesn't react better to much needed turns especially during dinner rush.... read more

Best sushi I've had in a long time. Fresh and delicious. Great miso soup as well. I will most definitely go back and try other items. Price was about average and we took out so no comment on the waitstaff but overall we are very pleased. First place we have tried in Montclair but we may not go anywhere else lol read more

Thank God I finally found an amazing true sushi place in NJ which does not have Manhattan Nobu prices. The sushi/sashimi and even the cooked food is fresh and superbly delicious with appealing presentations. The owner will not subject her clients to anything that is not of high quality even the service. read more

I went to this place for the first time and I had a great time. The Sushi was great (tasty and fresh) the owner and his wife were very friendly. The place is nice and on a good location. I will return again for Sushi to this place. read more

Ordered for home delivery. We ordered 4 rolls. One of the rolls with the white fish was super fishy tasting and smelling. The other two rolls were ok but also not fresh or great. The last roll was a California the avocado wasn't ripe. For the very first time, my boyfriend and I threw out sushi rolls. We will not be giving this place a second try. read more

Great sushi, and such a great price. And they deliver! What a treat to have sushi at home sometimes that's NOT from a grocery store! Great menu, and in the restaurant, the decor is trendy and they're super attentative. I like the Tempura appetizer - it lets you try one of everything in tempura. Highly recommend. A great addition to UMC. read more

The sushi here was very good and fresh. The special roll I had was delicious. BYOB! The service is sub-par.

First of all.... Let me just start out by saying that i am going to wake up tomorrow throwing up. It took 10 minutes to find a hostess. After we were seated and ordered our food it took another 15 min before we even saw our appetizer (over cooked edamame) and then another 20 get our ..."sushi". The salmon must have been days old. It had a fishy, vile, smell and terrible taste. After flagging down the unattentive waitress they handled the situation terribly, offering to re-make the roll with the same bad fish and only offering us a 10%($3) discount. We were forced to argue with the rude hostess trying to convince us that "we must not like it, our food is fresh" and were still given a $30 bill for this disgusting meal. Terrible service and terrible food. Will not be coming back EVER. Surprising this place is still in business. read more

Fantastic sushi. After living in Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, and Brooklyn I'm a self-proclaimed "sushi-snob". It is, objectively speaking, the most enjoyable entree known to mankind - when prepared well. I read other reviews here on Yelp before ordering takeout for my wife's birthday here - and we were not disappointed. Generally, we try to eat sushi at the restaurant - it is "that-many-minutes" fresher and environment, it seems to me, makes a huge difference with this food (for some reason more than other foods). that said, the environment at Toro was great - I hope we can eat there sometime. My only recommendation? Better music. Smooth jazz may placate the masses - but it annoys anyone who appreciates good music. Play either real jazz (if you want to have mass appeal) - or play downtempo (the ideal sushi music). Here are some ideas: Theivery Corporation, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Tosca, Dzihan & Kamien, Zero 7, etc. etc. Even better - get a live DJ. Of course, that might tip the cool meter way over what Montclair can handle. Upper Montclair, after all, is pretty white bread. Back to the food: it was awesome. Loved the two specialty rolls we got, as well as the 'standard' rolls. Got some Sake next door at the liquor store and we were ready to go. Highly recommend this place. We're definitely going back. read more

Best sushi in Monclair. We've been looking for good sushi since leaving the city, wow there are some bad ones around. Toro was a great find, going back tonight! The serving size are perfect, everything is really fresh. The Memory of Sakae and Seaweed Salad with Tuna Carpaccio over Seaweed Salad were fantastic. It takes a lot to give a sushi restaurant a high recommendation, Toro earned it! read more

I love sushi and I love this restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. My family has been going since they opened and I have not one complaint. I had my 50th birthday dinner at the restaurant and when anyone comes to town and wants sushi this is where I take them. I recently had 11 guests come from Virginia and along with my husband, two local friends and myself we were 15 and we had a blast. They all loved it! Thanks to Amy and Andy (the owners) for putting up with our rowdy crowd. read more

MUCH better than Dai Kitchi! Fresh, great tasting food. Friendly service. Nice ambiance with tables spread out so you don't feel like you're on top of the next table. read more

We have been here for 45 minutes and all we've had is a Miso soup. There are about 20 tables, nobody has their food, everyone is looking around like WTH is my food.. never coming back. Awful service and only 3 chefs. read more

good sushi, affordable night out, friendly service, great specialty roll options. I'm not a picky sushi eater but it's a good spot and easy on the wallet for a night out read more

Brutal from almost all standpoints. Took so long to bring out hot food - did not distinguish between appetizer dumplings and entree sushi and brought out dumplings (pork gyoza) late. They were gross. But not as Gross as the tofu teriyaki. I know, it's an American dish at a Japanese place but I was with my 10 year old and it is actually made well at other places where they use nice fresh vegetables and good quality tofu. Not the case here where there was a weird gelatinous skin covering the tofu and some wilted broccoli shoved in the corner of the plate. My sushi dinner A was fine but the eel, squid and some other shiny inedible pieces could not be eaten without much chewing. The service was brutal and all the waitstaff seemed brand new or confused or both. There was one waitress who spent at least 50% of the night literally staring perplexed at the billing station tapping the keypad. The most maternal of the staff was saying things to the staff in her native language (not Japanese) and was disingenuous when our food took super long to come out, "your sushi was our first priority.." Or some such bs. Lame. Pretty brutal overall. Don't think I'll be going back. read more

Having lived in Tokyo I am fussy about Sushi and this place always delivers, high quality, fresh sushi and sashimi. Staff are friendly, welcoming and efficient. Chef is creative and flexible. Best in town. read more

The sushi here was as good as it gets and the staff is friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place for your sushi needs. And, yes, the BYOB policy is the greatest. A nice bottle of Saki was purchased right next door for $10.00. Go check it out. read more

Been eating here for years. The sushi is great and the ingredients are always fresh. They offer a 5% discount discount now only for dine in or take out. read more

I placed a small order for delivery from Toro expecting to receive my food in 30-45 min. When I called, the woman who took my order didn't see it fit to let me know that my food would take over an hour for it to get delivered. I live 5 min away from the restaurant and received my food an hour and a half after calling it in. I was so hungry, I had to scarf my meal down and couldn't even enjoy it. If this place had any idea of good customer service, they would give more than just an apology. Try taking something off the bill or throw in something on the house. First and last time ordering from this place. read more

Extremely slow and could careless that you wait an hour for pick up. Food okay nothing special. Too expensive for what you get.

Service was very slow - 1 waitress during Saturday lunch. Don't believe this is Japanese own - chefs and wait staff are Chinese. Sushi is okay - charashi ordered contained mostly egg, imitation crabmeat - maybe 10 small pieces of sushi. read more

I ordered 4 sushi rolls for pick up on a Sunday night. They told me 25 min. I showed up right on time and was told my food was not ready. The hostess then repeatedly disappeared for lengthy amounts of time. 4 other people were also waiting for food. After waiting another 20 minutes, I was told they had RAN OUT OF RICE. They had to reverse my transaction and I left.... That was it. No other compensation or explanation of why I had not been told sooner. Not trying this place again. This was ridiculous for a sushi place. Very sad because the place looked nice. read more

I'm a big fan of sushi, and consider myself to have some real expertise about the quality and ambience of sushi bars. Toro is outstanding, both in terms of the menu, presentation, and most of all, the wonderful sushi and unusual other menu items. For example, the spicy mussels were incredible, fresh, delicious, and uniquely flavored; the gyoza were excellent, and the special roles were wonderful as well. The staff was extremely attentive, and during our meal, the owner came over to say hello and see how we were enjoying our meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant, and can't wait to go back. read more

Have only ordered take out from here but it was very good sushi. Tasted fresh. Especially liked that the Rainbow roll uses real crab instead of imitation Krab. Udon was good, as were the shumai. The order took a little more than an hour to arrive, but the delivery person was apologetic and we didn't mind. read more

Very good salmon teriyaki. Their Katsu Oyakodon was a bit salty and had a bit too much veggies in it, but it was still good. Definitely coming back to try their full sushi spread. read more

Terrible food! The fish should not have been served it was old and tasted overbearingly fishy. Worst sushi I have ever had.

The sushi here is amazing. I have tried other places and by far Toro is the best. The fish is amazingly fresh, the staff is attentive, the decor is attractive. The sushi never disappoint and I would highly recommend this restaurant. If you find coupons on their website, print coupons out and take it since the do not have a scan to scan the coupons off you phones. read more

My family loves japanese food and Toro never disappoints. The service is friendly and courteous. The price for Japanese food is reasonable.
