    Chef Special
    Martin K.

    Picked up Chef Special, specially mixed and ordered for my kids preferences, was made and boxed the way just as so we always liked in Thormhill. We ate them all at friend's home! No regret. I was told the restaurant is under new management since March. Goodluck U Know Sushi!

    UPDATE!!! Under new ownership. 2019 Things have changed. Quality and service has gone way down. We order our favorite things on the menu and they do not make it the same way at all. We're very sad, as this was in walking distance of our house and it was our go-to spot. Now, I think we'll have to drive to get great quality sushi ... :( My fav sushi place around here. Quality, service, and all around greatness. They're so friendly and kind. Everything I've tried here has been excellent!! Don't be put off my the location or exterior. It's what's inside that counts ;)

    We found U-Know based on Yelp reviews. We ordered a sashimi platter and a kalbi dinner. Food was outstanding. The sashimi was so fresh that there was no way anyone could mistake this as AYCE quality. The fish was sliced thick. The Kalbi dinner came with a lot of pieces. They were meaty, tender, easy to chew through, and tasty. Kudo to the chefs! What took a star off was the services and decor. The services was polite but minimal. There was no tea refill. When the waitress came over to our table expecting us to ask for the bill, she was taken back that I asked for tea refill instead. My BF thought the decor was rough and dated. The bill came to $44 with tips, which was reasonable per food quality and downtown location.

    "Dinner Spicy Roll" - loads of mayo
    Tracy C.

    I was really craving sushi the other night and thought I'd give this new place a try. I called ahead and ordered the "Dinner Spicy Roll - SD6" and, because there was a bit of a language barrier, I confirmed that it was three rolls - spicy salmon, tuna and dynamite. I was correct but, they said that they only offer "half" a dynamite roll. I guess they should have indicated that on the menu but whatever ... Anyway, the positive was that they used good quality ingredients - the rolls were very fresh. The negatives were that the rolls were quite small; they were smothered in mayo to the point that I couldn't differentiate the salmon from the tuna; and there was little signs of shrimp in the "half" dynamite roll. I would have given it four stars but, what really turned me off (actually pissed me off), was the lettuce in the salad was all brown - gross. The miso soup should have just been named "miso flavoured broth" because it only had one little piece of tofu and no trace of seaweed. The cheque came to $18 with tax. I felt a little taken and will likely NOT return - 2.5 stars.

    So AMAZING! I LOVE the sushi here! So worth the trip since I live in Markham. The minute I walked in a nice waitress greeted us to our seats. Wait-time for the food wasn't bad. The dishes were served beautifully and it looked very appetizing. The sushi here melts in your mouth, especially the salmon sashimi! The tempura was fantastic as well as leaving such a nice delicate shrimp sensation in your mouth. The staff here are extremely friendly and are so homely. I can't eat sushi anywhere else now ): will always be coming back!

    I'm disappointed bc I really liked their sushi. I paid around $6 for this salad & I'm surprised they didn't even fill up the take out box. Not worth the money at all.

    Hockey night special.

    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.
