How the times have changed...not my personal experience but my girlfriend had been to this spot many years ago and had a good time. I guess it hasn't held up. Came by for a weekday dinner and got the following: - Crunchy spicy scallop roll - Crunchy spicy shrimp roll - Seafood Creamy Udon - Rose Tteobboki It was hard even getting our order in. While there are plenty of seats and elaborate decor (e.g. replica sakura blossoms and birds), the decor frankly made it hard to flag someone down and we waited quite awhile (along with other tables near us). There was nothing quite remarkable about the food as well - small portions but premium pricing. The seafood udon in particular was lacking in flavour as the toppings were watery. With the amount of options in the area I probably won't be back. read more

If you're a fan of udon, the beef udon and seafood creamy udon were delicious. The beef udon features tender slices of beef and a flavorful broth, while the seafood creamy udon is rich and satisfying, with generous amounts of fresh seafood. For those looking for something heartier, the army stew was pretty filling. This Korean-inspired stew is packed with a variety of meats and vegetables for a fuller, more satisfying meal. If you love salmon like me, the salmon lover dinner special is a must-try. As for drinks, the ginger highball is a refreshing and flavorful option, while the Malibu Sunset and Peach Keen are better if you like your drinks sweet. Service was amazing. Our waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable and gave us some good recommendations. Great ambiance. It's got a cozy and intimate atmosphere, with traditional Japanese decor. Whether you're looking for a casual meal or a night out with friends, Mori Sake Bar is definitely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back again for the sake this time! read more

They've changed the menu here and there are no longer a lot of options for sushi rolls or Sashimi. Most of it are Korean hotplate dishes. The ones we happened to order were all on the oily side and swimming in the sweet spicy sauce. I think it is too pricy for what you are getting. Spicy Chicken Cheese was good though. Chicken was tender. The Spicy Pork on the other hand was tough. I also ordered the beef nabe pot dish and it came with a decent amount of toppings. In terms of drink specials they are doing 2 for 1 deals for soju. Which is a good deal. If you follow their Instagram they give you a free rice cake dish. read more

I love this place. On the outside, it looks like an average street sushi store, but when you go inside, it's interior is actually quite nice! The workers are very nice and it's just a super calm atmosphere. I've come here so many times it hard to count. When I went to school near there, during lunch my mom and I would go if I had a spare in the afternoon, I would go for dinner with my friends, etc. It's a little $$, but definitely worth every penny. The fish is fresh and each dish is mouth watering. The food is really really good. My go-to order is the unaju and Philadelphia roll. My mom really likes their spinach dish and their sushi pizza. I've also gotten oysters and chirashi don. Everytime I've gone, the food has been AMAZING. The service is always the perfect pace and once again, it's just such a nice atmosphere. I love how it's completely cancels the loud Yonge & Eg (especially with all that construction). read more

This place is called Mori sake bar now and completely changed their menu to Korean bar food, with the exception of a couple of sashimi dishes. I'm so sad that it's no longer a sushi bar. I have been ordering from this place for 2 year... The salmon sashimi dish is no good. The fish didn't taste fresh. I would not recommend getting this dish. The other food is still decent but there's no longer sushi here sadly. read more

I went in tonight for a celebration. The ambiance was very nice and I loved the play list. Service was great and very attentive. I had the sake negiri and it was the best salmon I have ever had and I lived in Vancouver for 4 yrs. The rolls were huge and the shrimp in the dynamite roll were the size of my thumb. read more

If the sashimi here gets any fresher you'd be biting into live fish. Best sushi I've ever had in Canada, price is reasonable, and the chirashi premium never disappoints. Also the family that runs this place is hella nice. read more

Ordered takeout here once. The sushi is just okay, but a little pricy for the quality.

I was very excited to discover that Sushi Mori was opening a few months ago, as the sushi options in the immediate Yonge and Eglinton area aren't great. (Sushi Rock is passable but it's definitely not amazing.) I finally got my chance to try Sushi Mori's wares on a recent Tuesday night, and when we showed up around 6:00, the joint was completely empty. (We got a great table, at least!) The experience didn't start off too well, admittedly, as it took our server more than 10 minutes to take our drink order. But that minor hiccup aside, the service was generally pretty quick and efficient. We tried a few different dishes, including three separate rolls (Spicy Scallop, California, and Salmon). I love a good roll and these definitely didn't disappoint. Everything worked well and the flavors were definitely on point, with the one kind of sour note the fact that the rolls were a little smaller than usual. (Each roll consisted of six pieces, which ensured that we were still pretty hungry after the meal.) But portion sizes aside, the food was uniformly quite delicious. We also got the Sushi Pizza and the Sashimi Starter, and both were certainly above average. I enjoyed my Dynamite Hand Roll, as well. The place did fill up a bit while we were there, too, so hopefully Sushi Mori is here to stay. read more

Great nigiri. Oysters with ponzu jelly, scallions and tobiko were delicious. Good value for lunch. Pleasant service and atmosphere. read more

Really no idea how this place has such good reviews. I ordered a takeout meal for one person cost me about $75 (and I left a $5 tip, unfortunately) First thing I noticed when I got home was that they forgot my rice and salad. OK fine, I can understand this happening sometimes but on my first visit and considering I was the only customer there at the time, it's not like they didn't have time to review the order. The portions for sushi/sashimii, tempura and gyoza were small but somewhat expected for a higher end joint. What I didn't expect was the sashimi being warm, smelly and overall low quality (I eat sushi all the time so I know what good sushi is). The salmon roe was warm and mushed up. BUT THE WORST PART! See pictures. The gyoza was thrown directly into the plastic take out box (when drenched in hot oil) and the plastic melted right onto my food. I have never been to a place where they don't put something (parchment paper or whatever it is) in the take out box below the hot gyoza/tempura for this exact reason. This was so blatant, and against common sense, that I have to wonder what the cooks are doing and thinking here. Are they trying to poison customers? Overall very bad. This place shouldn't be in business IMO. read more

Sushi Mori is currently the best Japanese restaurant in the Yonge and Eglinton area. The ambiance is quite pleasant - dim lighting, wooden tables, a sushi bar, and fake cherry blossom type trees. The menu has all of the expected options - starters, salads, soups, sushi, nigiri, sashimi and bento boxes. I ordered a rainbow roll and the salmon lover (4 pieces sashimi, 6 pieces nigiri and 1 spicy salmon roll). The prices are decent but not cheap. The salmon lover was $22 and the rainbow roll was $13. This was shared between two people. We probably could've eaten more but we were in a bit of a rush. The fish was fresh and the quality of the rolls was quite good - both in presentation & the ingredients used. The service was great. Our server checked in with us often and came by when it was the "last call" for a food order that evening. I was certainly concerned with how empty the restaurant was when we came for dinner. I hope this place sticks around. read more

A decent sushi spot in Yonge and Eglinton neighborhood. I dined in for dinner with my husband and baby on Saturday night for the first time. We had grilled black cod, toro oshi, salmon avocado Tartar and tempura mori. The best dish was grilled black cod. It was very tender and flavourful. The portion was pretty big as well. Second favorite was Salmon avocado tartar. It was very refreshing and beautifully presented. Tempura was decent. Toro oshi was disappointing. Toro means tuna belly and it is supposed to melt in your month. However on toro oshi, toro was very very thin sliced and overly seasoned on top of it, we couldn't really taste it. One thing that I noted is that their Japanese interpreted menu had some errors. read more

Hand an intense sushi craving so made my way here as I was in the area. It was quiet for lunch on a weekday. Servers were quick to seat me and food was also quick to arrive. It was was all delicious! And the presentation was also pretty. Over all pretty good sushi. The vegetable tempura was the best thing I ordered though. Presentation was so pretty. Appealing to the eyes and tummy. read more

I keep coming back here and can't say enough good things about Sushi Mori. This is a hidden sushi gem in the Midtown area!! While their hot items are delicious, the nigiri and sashimi will keep bringing you back time and time again. The cuts of fish are so thick and fresh, unlike those cheap all you can eat places. The majority of their seafood is also imported from Japan, so you will get that authentic taste and feel. Stand out items are their aburi sushi, botan shrimp (sashimi), and uni. Their botan shrimp will be unlike any other shrimp you've ever eaten - it is so fatty and melts in your mouth. Make sure you ask for the heads deep fried. Their sushi plates are also prepared beautifully with a garnish on each piece of nigiri (I'm talking GOLD FLAKES on your salmon!!) Their chirashi bowls are filled to the brim with stunning cuts of fish - I'm pretty sure they sneak in extra pieces with the premium bowl too. Even with the higher price tag, this place is definitely worth visiting. You will get more than your money's worth and you will leave so satisfied yet wanting more. read more

My first yelp review! My friend and I came here for dinner. The owner greeted us with jokes and smile. Lol! Very funny and friendly. The service was extremely prompt. The restaurant was artfully decorated and spacious enough for large groups or special event. The price was reasonable, but the quality of fish is really good. So fresh. We had the sushi platter, great assortment! The tuna that came with it just melts in my mouth. Loved it! The restaurant has a great lunch time menu and sashimi/sushi/maki platters for anyone. Great Japanese/Korean restaurant near Yonge and Eglinton. read more

Tried to love it. Really did. Our fav sushi spot around Yonge/Eg closed, so we tried Sushi Mori. First time was ok, no issues. Second time... they had changed their menu, which wasn't a big surprise. No biggie. I was there with 2 friends - two of us ordered a bento box, one ordered a roll. They both got their orders (at different times), but my bento box never came. And by never, I mean, never. I asked the server 3x, nothing. Got an apology, but no food. I wasn't even given the option of something else - they simply disregarded my order. I went back to work hungry. I thought I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and went there again. So... Third time - my food was MIA again! There were five of us. My four friends got their food (3 bento boxes, 1 order of a roll and gyozas), except for me. I waited, waited... asked the waiter and his response? "They forgot." So I left. And I'm not going back. And I'd encourage everyone to do the same. read more

I love this place! Definitely a hidden gem for me! Tried their 16 dollars lunch menu: sashimi one with 12 pieces of sashimi. But pay attention to the fish! There is butter fish and blue fin tuna! You can't even expect that for the price of 16 dollars. Quality of fish is good, everything is on point. Moreover, environment is chill, servers are friendly, not packed at all during lunch time, fantastic background music. What else can you ask for? Would definitely come again. read more

Been here three times. First dine in, very friendly staffs and fresh sashimi. Also washroom was very clean. I liked how the place has enough space so ppl don't have to squid in to find their tables. The rest two for the take out, warm food, but they had less salad than dine in. Hope they continue this lovely service. read more

This place doesn't have too many vegetarian options for dinner time. There are many options that were lunch time only, like bibimbap. Lots of empty tables at lunch time, and still took a long time to get to us. We used to like this place before they switched the menu. read more

First time here. Nice and friendly. Food was great. Service was also good. Very recomendable. Only parking was not thag easy. read more

Mori - Wagyu beef...nice and tender - Japanese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

If food is your only concern I believe Mori has the best sushi around the Yonge and Eglinton area. Unfortunately there is more to consider when rating a restaurant and Mori leaves room for improvement. The good: The food The decor (mostly) The bad: The ambiance (bright lighting, loud TVs) Costumer service (may very) Price It seems they are conflicted with trying to be trendy and a sports bar. For the price I would expect a more sophisticated experience, not loud TVs blasting random reality shows. One was playing a show with animals getting operations at the vet. Blood and guts included. Yum! If this place is to survive it needs to enhance their customer service and in restaurant experience. The food is there. The rest is holding you back. read more

5star for Great interior and vibe. 4 star for no boat option Haha. Not from eglinton area so I quickly searched sushi on Google maps and tried this place. Wanted to get a boat but they didnt have it.... we ended up getting sushi pizza, assorted sushi and sashimi which is somewhat a boat I guess? Everything was pretty good :) and I lived the ebi mayo. read more

It was not bad food. The service was off. I ordered one thing and got the other, it was my lunch time so I didn't ask to bring me what I actually ordered and just ate what I got since I didn't want to take a risk of being late to work. Also the waitress never ask whether my party and I wanted separate bills and just brought us one bill, which is not good service. read more

This is my new favourite sushi restaurant in Toronto. I had the salmon teriyaki bento box. There was a 4 oz piece of salmon that was moist and very tasty. Also in the bento box was a piece of maki, steamed rice, salad and noodles. This dish was only $13! Staff was extremely friendly and rach greeted me & my husband. The decor is clean and freshb. read more

The major plus for me is while it was expensive, I felt I got a good amount for my dollar. The overall quality is decent without being spectacular, having Sapporo on tap is good as well. read more

It's not the price ($60) that I paid for 12 pieces of sushi. It's that the ingredients were so meagre and the pieces were so tiny. I literally could have fit all 12 pieces in a french fry carton from McDonalds which is where I should have gone. read more

This is definitely a hidden gem! Took my son and his girlfriend last night and the sushi was top notch! We were all impressed with the freshness and quality of the fish. My fiancé who works for a Japanese auto company has been to Japan for work feels this is this best sushi he's had here in Canada yet. Classy décor and casual roomy seating for a group. Will definitely go again. Also, $4 parking off of Roehampton. read more

Would not recommend this place at all. Sushi rolls are small and pathetic and the quality is lower than what you would get at an all you can eat style restaurant. I wasn't impressed to say the least. Expensive for what they are serving and rolls are not all that tasty. I looked at reviews before coming and thought that 4.3 stars was good enough for me, I was wrong! read more

A great place to pop in for some good food, whether if you're with friends or on a date. The waiter recommended the seafood udon, and though it didn't blow me away, it was perfect in terms of a bowl of noodle soup on a colder night. Prices are affordable and reasonable as well for the type of food served. read more

I visited Canada for the first time during the weekend to see my long time best friend who recently moved up there. We were going to visit a different restaurant my friend recommended but ended up eating here. We've been to literally tons of different sushi places together: from all-you-can-eat to some of the most expensive places. And always thought you can never go wrong with sushi. Well you actually can... Salmon has been my lifetime favorite sushi so I definately went with that. It had some kinda spicy sauce in it which had a strange smell and a bit of too much end taste. My friend tried it and she disliked it as well. They explained that it was some sorta owner's special recipe. It definately needs an improvement if you want to call it special. Service and the price were decent but not good enough to cover the funky taste I had. read more

Just had dinner here with a friend. He had the dinner Vento special, I had beef don and beef gyoza. Delicious on both counts! The service here is wonderful too. The waiter showed the customary Japanese politeness. The decor of the restaurant is lovely too. There is a lot of wood trim everywhere. This is definitely the type of place you could go with friends or on a date and be equally comfortable. As for price... you get what you pay for. High quality=high price compared with some of the other sit down places nearby, but it's still very affordable. read more

Food is not bad but not something spectacular. For the price, I expected a little bit more. If you need a quick bite and there's nothing else around, this place will do. Lucky for you, there are plenty of places to eat in the area. read more

My favorite sushi place in the area. Fresh sushi, good price. Really nice and friendly staff. Nice wooden decor too.

This is an excellent restaurant to go to dinner before a movie or after. Fast and friendly service. Lots of space on the 2nd floor away from the traffic and construction on Eglinton. Sushi is fresh and staff are courteous. Lots of choices of different maki rolls. The first time we went here we ordered the sushi boat! Family friendly and always has some sports event playing on the tv. Great place to watch the Leafs , Raptors or the Blue Jays:) read more

Was excited to try after reading all the great reviews. Although the food was great, delivery took twice the length of time to arrive and we were missing items. When I called the restaurant to ask about our missing items, his response was "so what". Disappointing to say the least and we definitely will not be returning. read more

I would highly recommend the new late night menu here. We ordered a few items to share and everything was really satisfying. The food was very well prepared and the fish was fresh. Great atmosphere and excellent service. read more

I work around Yonge and Eglinton area and I've been dying to find a good Japanese restaurant in the neighbourhood, and I'm very happy with this place. First of all, it's spacious enough for me to go with a big group of people, which is hard to find in this area. Love that sushi isn't made with too much rice, and I like the quality of their sashimi. Big pieces, well decorated plating, good service. Just so glad finally there's a good Japanese restaurant in the area. Oh, they have Korean food as well and I've been loving their spicy pork and soon to fu! read more
