This is a very humble little sushi joint run by a Korean husband and wife. It really feels like you stepped foot into a local japanese place because of how tiny it is. The service was lovely and server was attentive. The menu itself is very no fuss - they didn't have a lot of fish options besides tuna and salmon but they had a lot of cooked meat options like unagi, teriyaki beef, chicken, pork, etc. I ordered the chirashi bowl and it was very small but good otherwise. I do wish they had given more fish but it was close to closing time so they probably didn't have very many left. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to try sushi but prefer cooked meat dishes. It's a good alternative for anyone who can't eat fish and you'd be supporting a local mom and pop shop. read more

Daon Sushi has been on my radar for a long time. I was in the area looking for a fast food lunch and walked in to order a bento box. The nice owner lady served me hot tea to start. She was very sweet and polite. Shortly afterward the man behind the counter served me a small bowl of hot miso soup which had a good amount of green onions. It was the proper proportion of miso to water too; not watery like other restaurants. It was tasty. Within a short period of time my bento box arrived. It consisted of a crunchy vegetable spring roll, crispy iceberg salad with shreds of carrot, edamame, rice and teriyaki glazed salmon sprinkled with sesame seeds, green onions, sitting atop a bed of stir fried cabbage. I'd say it was better than the alternative for a fast food meal. read more

This is one of my favourite sit-down sushi restaurants in the area. It's located in the corner of the plaza and has five tables that seat 4. I love the dynamite roll + udon combo. It's a mom and pop shop and the service is great! It is cash only. read more

Daon Sushi is tucked in the very back corner of the plaza and it's quite a small space inside. I haven't been here in over a decade but I have fond memories coming here before piano classes as a kid. The owners have changed since then but it's run by a husband and wife duo who have figured out how to work together collaboratively and effectively. They're very sweet and it's fun to watch them work. We came here for dinner and tried the beef teriyaki bento and sashimi bento. The beef teriyaki was pan fried beef slices with a squeeze of teriyaki sauce over it so it wasn't very hot though the beef was tender. The sashimi bento came with mostly salmon sashimi with one slice of red tuna. It seems this spot primarily serves salmon for their sashimi/sushi combo dishes which isn't ideal for me since I prefer the variety. Our sashimi wasn't sliced very cleanly so a few of the slices were still connected to one another. Lastly, we got a cold spring roll with the sashimi bento which was super surprising but the owner was kind enough to replace it with 2 freshly fried (and hot!) spring rolls. Overall, this spot doesn't stand out but the prices are very fair, the owners are lovely, and if you love salmon sashimi this spot is worth visiting. read more

We arrived after traveling all day famished. While we worried the place was pretty empty, the food was high quality, lovely, and delicious. It does seem like the majority of their business is likely to be takeout. The service was helpful, but unobtrusive. The ambiance was simple, yet clean and inviting. Chance steered us well this evening. read more

Saturday night, we want just a quick simple dinner. We used to come here but was many years ago. It is inside a corner plaza with all kind of Chinese eateries. I believe these are new business owners now. Cozy place with 20 seats. Not too many choices of food. They have 6 choices of dinner bento boxes. We picked the combo dinner box so we can taste a bit of sushi and sashimi. The other one we picked the Teriyaki chicken dinner box. Sashimi are salmon and tuna, and they taste fresh. Love the lettuce salad. Dressing was not too strong like some other small place. Same as the miso soup right after we placed the order, not salty at all. Even for a Saturday night around 7 p.m., it was just half full. We are pleased to have a tiny place for simple Japanese food in our hood. read more

amazing customer service very kind people working here and the sushis great they made my take out order so fast as well and it was so fresh!

The wholesomeness of this restaurant and its owners (a super cute husband and wife duo) is enough as is, but their sushi quality is also great. Definitely an upgrade from the lower end Hanabi that used to be here. For those of you who were familiar with Hanabi, the space hasn't changed too much- same small intimate space but it is cleaner. It's literally just a husband and wife team running the restaurant but watching them work will make you feel warm and fuzzy. I was extremely impressed with the quality of the food... I wasn't really expecting too much. I ordered the sashimi dinner set bento, which came with 6 spicy salmon rolls, salmon sashimi, green salad, fried tofu, glass noodles, and miso soup. Everything was made to perfection, I would say above average tasting. The miso soup was comforting, the salad had a nice light dressing... the sushi pieces tasted fresh and I also really enjoyed the glass noodle and tofu (and I'm not even usually a fan of tofu). Since it's just the two of them running the restaurant, they both usually have their hands full with making sushi so they don't check up on you all that much on their own... but I really didn't mind that; they were nice, welcoming, and happy to help when asked. I wouldn't come here in a big group because seating is limited. This is what I'd call a hidden hole in the wall restaurant that will pleasantly surprise you. read more

Daon Sushi - Sashimi dinner set - Japanese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This small restaurant hides in the corner of the Finch/Midland plaza. People are still unwilling to dine in as we are the only customers inside on a Saturday afternoon. I won't say the sashimi and sushi are the best, but their price is competitive. The sashimi + sushi combo we ordered is mainly salmon, with one shrimp sushi and one slice of tuna as exception. We expected a more variety of choices for combo. Next time we may need to order combo with specified sashimi or sushi. The size of spider sushi is huge. Another thing I like is their soya sauce. Dip a bit to bring great favour to the sashimi. read more

Wonderful tiny sushi shop located in the corner of an Asian strip mall. Decor is mid 60s and perfectly suits the older husband wife team that operate it. We both opted for the sashimi platter ($17.95). Generous portion of fresh salmon plus one piece of tuna. Includes a spicy salmon roll, lettuce salad, edamame, daikon salad and a cup of miso soup. We also added a side order of tempura shrimp ($11.95). Salmon sashimi was nicely trimmed (no 'chewy' bits) and soft in texture. Spicy salmon roll had about twice the amount of salmon compared to other places. It made for a 'big' one bite. Rice nicely seasoned and soft. Tempura was crispy without being oily. All in all the amount of food for the price is extremely reasonable. Keep in mind this is a sit down restaurant not a fast food take out joint. Service friendly, establishment clean (green safe rating). So happy to have discovered this tiny gem. read more

IF YOU WANT TO BE SERVED BY THE CUTEST LITTLE ASIAN MAN AND HIS WIFE, COME HERE! My brother and I came here on a Wednesday night and it was pretty empty. Considering that this place is relatively new to his predecessor (shoutout to my Hanabi upbringing), and the fact that they had no Yelp reviews, could be why. From first look, the restaurant is a lot more spacious and has a vibrant, happy yellow (which oddly reminds me of The Owl but hey not one to plagiarize). It's also a lot cleaner. Anywho, the cutest Asian couple owns this place. They promptly gave us our plentiful choice of seating, and gave us the menus. (I've uploaded them to reference). I ordered the Sashimi Dinner Box ($15.95) and my brother ordered the Teriyaki Dinner Box (same price). They served us with some damn good non-salty taste miso soup. (Shoutout to all them sushi places). We also got our boxes pretty fast. The fish was good quality and the portions were decent. Anywho, it's a really good environment, with good food served by an honest couple (that strangely reminds me of the Asian version of the grandpa from the movie Up) Support these guys, and check them out when you can. :) read more

I don't have time to write reviews, I write maybe 1 or 2 a year. But if there's a place that really f's it up or does it well, I'mma leave my 2 cents. So here it is folks-- Daon Sushi is legit. It's where Hanabi used to be. Tight seating quarters, so don't come if you've got a big group. We got a sashimi dinner box, bulgogi dinner box, and a green dragon roll. Everything was delicious. Fish is fresh, portions are generous. After taxes and tip $60 even. Lunch boxes are the same as dinner boxes, but cheaper! Def returning or getting take out. read more

I have passed in front of it before but never really tried it and I am super glad that I did. I had the sushi and sashimi combo and the fish was fresh, side dishes well seasoned and overall dish was really delicious! And it costs about $16 which is a really good price for 9pcs (we got 10 that day) of sashimi + 6 sushi salmon rolls (I asked without the spicy mayo, but tried it as well and is good and not very spicy). I loved everything, the service, the complimentary tea, the food, the price. Unfortunately is a small place so I don't know if it ever gets full. I went in a Saturday dinner and was fairly quiet. I believe it's a very unknown place for many, and it is at the very corner of the place, which it makes its entrance quite hidden. Best japanese dish I had made from korean chefs. Will definitely go there again. Totally worth it. read more

Daon Sushi - Sashimi and sushi combo - Japanese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Definitely one of those hidden gems out there, Daon Sushi's sushi tastes pretty great! The place is really quiet, ideal for dates and studying I'd say. The place is run by a married couple and they've made the place very cozy and relaxing to stay at. I've always passed this place in this plaza and I'm glad I tried it out. The food's cozy and fresh, even the miso given and the tea was warming. I hope this place gets to see more people. read more

3.5 star. Called in for takeout and service was fast ~10 mins. Ordered the dynamite combo which is dynamite roll and 5 pieces of sushi (4 salmon and 1 shrimp) for 16.95.
