Found this restaurant from yelp because they are known to serve fresh sushi. Although that is true, I didn't favour the overpowering flavour of the wasabi on the sushi. I also found it a bit rude that the server did not ask if we were done with our plates before taking it away. Either than that, i have not tried their other dishes aside from the sushi, so i left it with 3 stars. read more

This is a great little sushi place. The girls that serve are always nice and friendly. The food is always good. Usualy starts with crunch soup which i find is a much better way to start than the traditional miso soups. There Volcano roll one of my favorites, and to finish it off a little vanilla ginger ice cream. Mmmmm read more

Absolutely love this place. I have yet to be disappointed. Friendly staff, nice added touch of a free soup while you wait for your order. I'm very happy to have come across this place! read more

Great sushi! Ordered the Las Vegas Roll; different flavor but very good. Place was clean and the staff was friendly. Free Crunchy Soup! I would recommend read more

As far as Toronto goes, this is great sushi. The place is nice & the service is friendly & fast.

It's really hard to find a good sushi place downtown. I went to this restaurant guided by yelp review but i was not satisfied. Sashimi was not very fresh and the crunch in spicy salmon roll bit soggy and not crunchy. Little disappointed but not too bad. read more

5 Stars for a local sushi gem. The price, friendly attitude and fresh sushi make this the place I go for a relaxing meal with a good book when I am in need of a pickup. This is not the best sushi I have ever had, but for a "local go to" I think it deserves 5 Stars. I am so happy it is in my neighbourhood. Check it out. read more

The only thing really awesome about this place is the Crunchy Noodle Soup.... The sushi is way overpriced for it's size and decent quality. Only reason I'm giving it a 4 star is because it's the only goo sushi place in the neighbourhood - it competes with Bikurri on King, Itchiban, Hiro, and maybe a few more restos in the neighbourhood. It's great that they have a 10% discount if you pay with cash for take outs and they've also expanded they're hours to open on Sunday. So, if you're in the neighbourhood and you don't want to make a trek to a bit North or North West, then go here... Some of the sushi's are bizarre - there's nothing really great, only thing I like on the sushi menu is the lasagna roll, everything else just tastes basic. But still a big fan of the Crunchy Noodle Soup. Service is good too, they're nice. read more

Amazing in every way. Sam the owner is the sushi master. Highly recommend the spider roll, red dragon and cherry blossom roll. Everything is delicious and fresh. read more

Just swung by fuzen very last minute, craving sushi but the grocery store had nothing. What a treasure! Sat down to order takeout, handed miso soup, my order was ready in less than 15 minutes and the food was amazing!!! Definitely try the Las Vegas roll! Will definitely go back, very happy with the food, location and the service. read more

- Very good food, plus free soup and ice cream. - Decent service but be sure they understand instructions - Expensive compared with similar places - Very fresh sushi, many options in the menu - Must try Front Street Roll read more

I got the salmon sushi combination, and crunchy udon + california rolls. I also got the crunchy rolls (I forgot the exact name of the menu). All of the dishes were satisfying. The staffs were super friendly and also provided us some information for sightseeing. Free soup and red bean ice cream service culminated my experience here. I highly recommend this place to anyone who's in the area! read more

See all

This is a great hidden gem. I love the food, especially the crispy noodle soup. The service is always good and the take out is quick and great. read more

Delicious food, and great service. Food came out very fast despite lots of patrons and one server. Additional perks with the meal that we didn't even know about was the crunchy soup that was put in front of us while we waited for our order, it was amazing! They have a few different pick up specials for lunch and dinner which is a bonus too. Overall highly recommended. We are AYCE fans mostly but considering the area doesn't have a lot of that this is a nice alternative for the price. read more

FuZen is one of the best sushi places in the city. Sometimes you have to sacrifice food over ambiance, but this place scores high in both. Service is good and fast. Prices are reasonable. The complimentary is delicious. read more

Ordered salmon teriyaki, the salmon was dry as cardboard and the sushi piece were super tiny. The

My boyfriend and I decided to go to FuZen for dinner last week based on the positive reviews we had read. Upon arrival, the place looked nice inside, and we were immediately given menus. We decided to order the 40 piece sashimi platter. When it came to the table, the sushi chef had decided to give us 20 pieces of salmon, and a few other options to make up the other 20 pieces in the platter (one of them being FAKE CRAB MEAT, which I have NEVER had included in a sashimi platter). My boyfriend questioned the 20 pieces of salmon in the platter, literally counting out the 20 pieces and asked if they had any other kinds of fish, such as octopus, surf clam, yellowtail, etc. We were told that this was how the platter came, with no substitutions. My boyfriend then told them that it seemed kind of ridiculous that half the sashimi platter consisted of salmon. The sushi chef grudgingly took the platter back, and replaced five pieces of the salmon with some of the other types of fish already in the platter, which still left us with 15 pieces of salmon. I like salmon, but this is just plain lazy; it almost seemed as if we were given whatever fish they needed to use up. I have never been to any other restaurants where there was absolutely no variety in a sashimi platter, and believe me, I've eaten at enough sushi restaurants to know. Had I known that the fish would be of such low quality, I would have walked out without touching the food. The so-called "snapper" (which I am 100% certain was not snapper) was so tough, it was like chewing on a piece of leather. The salmon had an unpleasant texture and was unbearably greasy. No, it was not fatty the way good salmon is, it was inexplicably greasy. To add insult to the injury, we went to the movies afterwards and I was left with a nasty fishy taste in my mouth the entire night. Disgusting! I will NEVER EVER go to FuZen again. Hey FuZen, just a tip - if your customers are complaining about the food, you should try to do something about it instead of scoffing at us like we are clueless. Also, a sashimi platter is not a way to get rid of your leftover fish. read more

I stumbled upon this place after visiting the TO Light Show at the Distillery District. What a pleasant surprise! On a Saturday night, I was able to walk in with no reservations. The restaurant was pretty full. The ambience is much like many sushi restaurants with some traditional Japanese/Asian decor and dim lighting. The service was incredibly quick, drinks and complementary appetizers came out shortly after ordering. We were offered "crunchy soup" and fried dumplings/gyozas, both of which I found to be decent. The best part was of course the sushi rolls (green dragon, spicy salmon, and Cali) which were fresh, in my opinion on the larger side, and very decently priced. My tea was topped out throughout the night and at the end of the meal, we were offered a free scoop of ice cream and the bill was presented and taken care of swiftly. Service start to finish was pleasant with no delays; something I can really appreciate. I'm not in this area that often but when I am, I will definitely revisit! read more

I recently went on a trip to Toronto and I was googling yelping high rates for sushi and came across this place, and man was it awesome, my friend got a salmon roll and fresh salon sushi and she could not stop going on about how fresh and amazing the salmon was! Me myself as a vegan I ate the veggie rolls and mmmm they were amazing I love a sushi place that has a good selection of veggie rolls, and they did :) The service was amazing as well we had sit down service and we were in and out like maybe 40 minutes if that (and we are so eaters) they were spot on. Highly recommended if your in the entertainment district!! read more

This bright, friendly spot is several cuts above the usual neighbourhood sushi bar, where the most I dare hope for is reliably fresh seafood. The menu shows real imagination--especially when it comes to the selection of rolls (I particularly like the Caterpillar roll, with eel and avocado). Service is brisk and cheerful; regulars get Japanese chopsticks for Christmas. read more

Been here a bunch of times for a quick dinner. Always solid food and service. Little bonuses like the free soup and ice cream are great. Would recommend this place if you are looking for a no frills solid sushi option. read more

My go to sushi place downtown. Good food and reasonable prices. Also good if you like the smell of sushi in your clothes.

On the pricier end, But decent quality sushi in a good location.

Best sushi spot in TO! Been a loyal customer since I discovered the place 3 years ago. The food is delicious and fresh, the staff are always super friendly, and they always serve me something extra "on the house". I never hesitate to recommend the place to any friends who ask for a great sushi place. I love the Korean pop music playing in the background as well. :) read more

I had high hopes for this place after reading the reviews on urbanspon. The place looks nice and clean. My GF and I decided to order the 40 piece sashimi platter. When it came to the table the sushi chef had plopped down 20 pieces of salmon with only a few other options to make up the rest of the 40 pieces. HALF of a 40 piece platter was all the same kind of fish!!?? I have never seen this done before at ANY sushi place and I have been to hundreds over the years including Japan. This is just pure laziness. People order a sashimi platter to get verity. There was no octopus,surf clam.squid, yellowtail etc. I brought it to the attention of the waitress who just said there are no substitutions. I counted out to her all 20 salmon pieces and said "don't you have any octopus, surf clam or squid? We like salmon but 20 pieces is kinda ridiculous" She took it back and the lazy chef just gave us five more of the bad snapper ...(which was not snapper btw) and left us with 15 slices of salmon. Had I known the fish would be sub par I would have walked right there and then. I will never go back EVER! Worst sashimi I have ever had. read more
