    Sashimi & roll platter 80pcs
    Kateri

    I love getting their sushi platters here. Always fresh and their prices have been good and consistent. It's truly my go to take out sushi spot because of the price but also the sashimi is always sooo thick. They close at 9:30 and I've placed my order pretty late but they were very accommodating and fast. I think they are most worth it for their platters. I always do take out though as the store isn't super big as the seating area is on the smaller side with only a couple of tables.

    My fave go to place for sushi. It's located in a small plaza at the corner of 9th line and 16th. The restaurant itself is small with not much seating available. The vibe is more for take out. They are usually really busy, especially on weekends and holidays. I would strongly suggest calling and ordering ahead of time. My family and I usually order the assorted roll platter vegetarian as we don't eat raw. The quality is great and the prices for their platters are not bad at all. I absolutely love this place and highly recommend it.

    Love this sushi take out restaurant. Their different locations I find serves at different qualities but all great. This location specifically I always order from although I do find that this platter one of the rolls went from decent level to spicy salmon, to avocado cucumber roll now to avocado roll .... Overall one of the better sushi take away places in the area.

    This is my all time favourite sushi spot. I come all the time with my girlfriend all the time and get the bento boxes and platters. We will be coming back all the time as long as I live in the area.

    Ai Sushi has the best value sushi platters! I ordered a platter and it had such a great variety of fish at a great price point ($48 for 60pc Sashimi-Sushi-Roll Platter!) I often find the the quality of rolls with platters tend to be lacking, but Ai Sushi delivered with a decent variety including California rolls, Dragon rolls, Spicy salmon rolls...etc & a variety of ~10 different fish!

    Ordered through Uber eats, with a 50% off coupon over the weekend! It was great value and quality was fresh. I got the 60 pieces party tray for around $36 with the discount. It included salmon sashimi, but my favourite was the salmon and avocado roll! Delivery was quick and efficient, with the order coming in less than 30 minutes. Highly recommended to satisfy sushi cravings for a large crowd!

    My family enjoys getting our Sunday lunch from AiSushi because it is delicious, affordable, and convenient! The prices for sushi are much cheaper than other nearby Japanese restaurants. We love the specialty rolls, especially the Alaska roll and Honey Mustard roll. The fish is fresh and they give a good amount of fish even with the good price. They have a well-organized online ordering system, and if they can't complete your order by the time that you requested, they will send you a text about it. This has only happened to me once, and the rest of the time the order is packed by the time I have arrived. They also have a 10% off discount if you pay in cash, which makes the deal even better. Highly recommend for cheap but quality sushi!

    Ai Sushi is my usual go to place for large platters! Sashimi is so on point. I usually get the larger platter with the assorted sashimi. Usually pre pandemic each piece came out to be about $1 per piece which is a total steal! I came here recently to try their spicy scallop rolls. Not too bad but the rice was not like their usual sushi rice. Kind of reminded me of the sushi you get at loblaws or longos. I have ordered dragon rolls here in the past, and the sushi rice was a lot better. Maybe it is a hit or miss with the rolls. But for sure come here for sashimi. Especially if you are going to a party or pot luck, they have amazing deals on platter options.

    During the pandemic Ai sushi has still been able to deliver quality food. I usually just call ahead of time to place an order and it's always ready by the time I get there. They are currently doing a 10% promo if you pay in cash. Perfect for takeout to eat at home! And prices are still super reasonable compared to other sushi restaurants in the area and the quality I feel is on par with the others! Def one of the neighbourhood gems and they now have 2 other locations in Richmond Hill and Scarborough. Glad to be able to still support local businesses!

    Like a good Markhamite, I practically grew up on sushi. You've got your cheap and easy food court staples like Yanagi in First Markham Place, and your ultra high-end Jiro Dreams of Sushi places like Zen. Being raised here, I've seen the boom of sushi restaurants grow from few and far apart to one in every corner of the city. So it's hard to find something that really surprises me these days. Then suddenly, Ai Sushi enters the conversation. Restaurant style quality at....food court prices? How? Why? Huh?? Ai Sushi is a small store focused almost entirely on takeout. They have a few tables within the restaurant but I honestly think those are more for people that are waiting to pick up their food. And this model has seemingly created one hell of a successful business model: no frills, high quality sushi at extremely reasonable prices. So successful in fact, that even amid COVID, the store is constantly rotating customers in and out it seems. So I keep talking about these prices. Let's give some examples. 40-piece assorted sushi/sashimi/roll platter for $32. That's right, less than $1 a piece, while the average place usually charges around 1-for-1 or more depending on how much rice is involved. Order more and you get an even better deal (100 pcs. for $62). I got their Hokkaidon with 3 giant sweet shrimp, uni, and ikura for $15.99. That's unbelievably cheap! Similar dishes are looking at charging closer to $25, though I will say Ai's uni was not the best. Is their sushi the greatest around? No, of course not. But the value is unbeatable. Their fish is fresh and their rice to fish ratio is desirable. Adding the fact that their service is quick and effective, you've got a sushi place that has somehow managed to stand out against the hundreds in Markham. Ai Sushi found its way into the middle of the holy three-way venn diagram for restaurants (quality, price, service), and for that, I can only give it my highest praises and pick up the phone to order more.

    Rolls of the 100pc platter (tray 2/2)
    Anthey C.

    Ai Sushi is a small restaurant in Markham that's usually bustling with take out orders. When we arrived, our order of 100 pc assorted sushi/sashimi/rolls platter was prepared, packed on time and we checked out smoothly. The trays were packed securely with plenty of utensils and soy sauce & wasabi in separate containers on the side rather than in the tray. All of the rolls and sushi used good quality fish and had a satisfactory rice to filling ratio. Included were rainbow rolls, a salmon avocado roll, a salmon roll topped with spicy mayo, a california topped with tobiko, another roll with spicy mayo and dragon roll topped with spicy mayo and tempura bits. The sashimi were thickly cut (with the only complaint that there were a couple pieces of bones and scale found in the salmon). They also had Ika cuttlefish sashimi, red tuna, hokkigai (surf clam), hotategai (scallops) and tako (octopus). I also got to try the spicy seaweed salad! I believe it tastes exactly the same as the one from Poke Guys which I love. I would get it again with all my orders. For the price and decent variety, it was a great deal. Ai Sushi would definitely be a great choice for groups of people wanting to enjoy good sushi at an unbeatable value. The more you order, the better the deal gets. Service is quick and efficient as long as you preorder. Ai Sushi is a neighborhood gem that will get your sushi cravings quickly satisfied. Take out available (10% off with Cash)! They also have a location in Richmond Hill and Scarborough.

    We used to order sushi platters here for take out, but as soon as indoor All-You-Can-Eat is back available we decided to actually try dining in. We were not disappointed. The only regret we have is not having tried the dine-in option sooner. We previously were still sticking to our other tried and tested Japanese AYCEs. The price rate per person here appears to be just a little less than other similar food places. Their food portion sizes are big, and similar to the ones they have available in their take-out sushi platters. What I appreciate in AiSushi is that they have some curry available on the menu. Japanese, red, green and other types of curry. Overall, this is one of the better sushi places around to get your sushi fix and if you want to eat to your heart's content.

    Taki is a fine dining Japanese restaurant located in the busy commerical areas of Richmond Hill…read more We recently had lunch here for a special occasion. The restaurant is super quiet and they offer great quality of food with great service, and the price is expensive if you choose to order sukiyaki set (expect $80+ per person). You can choose between sushi sets at different price level or sukiyaki from the menu. This suits the need of our group given some people prefer sushi but some couldn't eat raw food. They also offer a couple of limited appetizer dishes such as tempuras and unagi don. If you booked the sukiyaki table and want to order sushi, you need to call them in advance to notify which sushi sets you want. We tried the sashimi and sushi courses at $55, which included miso soup, 5 pieces of sashimi, 8 pieces of sushi (squid, toros, salmon, scallop etc.), handroll and matcha or black sesame icecream at your choice. The sushi is smaller than average, suitable for small eaters. The course is totally worth the money. I love every piece of sashimi and my favourite sushi include the scallop and the squid. Everything was super fresh. The dessert was also having the perfect sweetness level for me. In addition, we also tried the sukiyaki for two ($110), which includes mushrooms, cabbages, great quality of Angus beef, yummy tofu and udon. Again, all the material was with great quality and super fresh. I especially liked the sweet sukiyaki soup, the tofu and the udon. We also ordered some shareable dishes including chawanmushi, unagi don and cod. Cod was cooked to perfect (soft and flavourful), and unagi don had quite decent portion. It would be better if the unagi could be softer from my personal opinion. Chawanmushi was mediocre. Overall, I strongly recommend this restaurant to fan of Japanese cuisine. It meets different people's needs by offering both cooked and raw food options, and the sushi set definitely has great value for money.

    Got the dinner special $95omakase. It's a really good deal compared to their other omakase combos…read more This one doesn't have sashimi but I didn't miss it because the nigiris were all so satisfying on their own already. Was worried it wouldn't be filling, but it's just the right amount of food. Whether you're celebrating something special or just want a traditional Japanese meal, this would be my spot. The sushi chef was very friendly and approachable, but he wouldn't make you feel like you need to yap with him like other omakase I've been to in Toronto where they would talk to the customers a lot. The wait staff was attentive and polite. Overall really good quality sushi, service and value. Would come again! I also appreciate that they don't require a deposit for reservations and don't require to pick the set you want beforehand. Very clean and warm design. Felt like I was in Japan!

    **FOOD SAFETY CONCERN** DANGER **…read more We are a table of 9 adults (7 of them seniors) and 1 baby. If you bring a baby, they do not have high chairs, only booster seats FYI. We called ahead since we are a party 6+. We had to try multiple times because our call was left unanswered.. Overall food was great .. until I found something shiny stuck to a shrimp in the hotpot. I was able to figure out what it was once I took it out. A flexible SHARP STEEL filament - Likely from steel wool. GROSS!!!!! And DANGEROUS!!! After I found that, it ruined my appetite and night. I became paranoid and worried about my family biting into steel. Will this result in a trip to the hospital? The server was apologetic and helped us change the broth immediately but honestly I wish there was more from management. It's not like finding a strand of hair. This is serious!!! Daimaru's lack of food safety and poor hygiene is unacceptable. I am still fuming that this happened. They are lucky I found it before any of the 7 seniors found it stuck in their throat or intestines. The nice servers had to hear our anger and frustration. Eventually after the second complaint from us did the manager finally decide to come in personally and address it. Should have addressed it the moment it happened in my opinion. If you eat here, eat at your own risk and check your food carefully. Attaching our receipt of the resolution: 10% off our entire bill. Won't be recommending to anyone.

    Back again and incredible again…read more Small tip. You don't need to order on only one phone. As long as you scan the bar code, you can order from any phone. Enter either you own info if paying separately or the same info if one person pays all of it. Lots of new dishes as well as old favourites: Chochin: Tried it. Not a fan. Tastes exactly the way I thought it would. Which is internal organ like but in an unpleasant creamy way. Duck liver raspberry toast: Nice but could be bigger. The raspberry brought an expected nice sweetness to the nice liver taste. A little more raspberry would be nice. Tuskune and egg yolk dip: It's ok but not that big a deal. Cheese momo: Fantastic. The swiss cheese is an excellent pairing to the chicken. Skin-Kawa - Delciious. Crispy. Must have, Hiza (knee cartidlidge): nice and crunchy Beef short rubs boneless: Was enticed due to the tendon part. It was nice but not incredible. Beef tenderloin + Chimichurri: Wife's favourite. We always order several of these. P-toro: Another must repeat. Great pork belly taste. Cherry tomato bacon maki: New and delightful. Bacon wrapped cherry tomatoes provide a delightful burst of tomatoey sweetness wrapped with the unctuousness of bacon. Lamb rib chop: Excellent and tasty. Once again everything was cooked perfectly and the amazing binchotan smoke made everything delicious. Fun fact, they put charcoal in the free water carafes as well.

    Good food that hurts your wallet…read more Japanese izakayas are few and few between in Markham - that's why I got excited to see Sumoki pop up! It's not on the main street of Unionville, but its presence on a side road matches the quaint nature of the restaurant. It's not the biggest inside, but it gives off a Japanese aesthetic with the wood trim throughout. We made reservations in advance to avoid long lines, if any (thankfully it wasn't packed the night we went). Orders are made via QR code, which seems to be the norm now. I like it since you don't have to waive down waiters in a low-dimmed izakaya. Their main offering seemed to be skewers. We ordered a bunch of them to try - notably, all of them had a nice smoky fragrance to them (maybe that's why it's called Sumoki). We especially enjoyed the Grilled Chicken Skin. Perfect crunch from the initial bite leading to a slight chew throughout. The seasoning was spot on as well. Other honourable mentions include extremely succulent Chicken Thigh meat, Gizzards and Beef Tongue. You could really taste the meat juices from each skewer since the chefs don't overpower it with seasoning. Other local skewer places tend to have the same seasoning across different cuts of meat, so Sumoki felt like a breath of fresh air amongst the growing market. Coincidentally, it's also the first place I've been to offer Giant Rooster Testicles. Now...don't be alarmed. It sounds exotic and might not be everyone's cup of tea, but this dish is extremely creamy. Give it a try if you have the courage! We came to celebrate my brother's birthday, but quickly realized our bill was racking up really quickly despite a small number of orders. Sumoki is definitely a place where you don't want to come on an empty stomach, since each order is 1 skewer (unlike other local restaurants). Other menu items, from what we saw of neighbouring tables, didn't fare much better in terms of portion sizes. We left quickly to avoid some serious financial damage for the 6 of us, but also quickly drove to another impromptu restaurant to get settle our hunger down. Sumoki definitely isn't cheap. I wouldn't recommend this to be a formal dinner - moreso if you wanted a light snack after dinner. But then again, with these prices, Sumoki tries to make itself bougie without delivering 100% satisfaction so maybe try at your own risk.

    A cozy Japanese spot in Unionville for Toronto's in-between weather…read more With Toronto's weather going back and forth lately, it's one of those times where you just want something warm and comforting. Miki Sushi feels like the kind of place you can casually stop by and settle into a simple, satisfying meal. Spicy Seafood Udon This is exactly what suits the weather right now. Loaded with shrimp, mussels, scallops, mushrooms, and other toppings, the broth has a Korean-style spicy kick that's both warming and comforting. Salmon Pressed Sushi Generously sauced and rich in flavor, each piece feels indulgent but easy to enjoy in one bite. BBQ Ika (Grilled Squid) Despite the chili on top, it's only mildly spicy. The squid is tender with a slight chew, served with bean sprouts and vegetables, and finished with a savory glaze. It comes out on a hot plate, so just be a little careful.
