A pleasantly surprising sushi establishment among many to choose from in that section of Bloor. The sushi was fresh and well prepared. The place is somewhat no frills which is fine as we just wanted to get some lunch. Nice food, good service. read more

I saw Jennifer's video on Youtube about this place, so when we visited Toronto, we had to make a trip here. We were quickly greeted and seated when we walked in; it was bustling with activity both with employees working quickly and customers eating and talking with enthusiasm. We ordered the Sashimi Gold combo, $28.25, which came with 24 pieces of sashimi and a large bowl of white rice along with miso soup and salad. I would have preferred all fish, but there were 6 pieces of octopus, which made up 1/4 of the platter. I did appreciate the 4 legs of sweet shrimp, and when you counted each leg, I actually got 25 pieces. All the fish was excellent; they were large pieces and thick. My husband got the Supreme Bento box and upgraded to beef teriyaki, $20.25. We appreciated that we were asked how we wanted the beef cooked - medium rare. The sauce was a little thick and thoroughly covered the meat. The food was abundant with the amount of the side dishes including tempura. Service was pleasant; efficient, polite, and with a smile. Parking was a little challenging, but we went around 8:30PM, so we were able to park on Bathhurst (available after 7:00PM). I love that there was sanitizer on every table. The bathrooms only had hand dryers, so I had to touch 2 doors to get out and the railing up the stairs, so they were "dirty" again. 1 star deducted due to my comment about too much octopus and the thick sauce, but also the washrooms being downstairs. I know they can't do anything about this, but I have friends w/disabilities, and that steep stairs might present a challenge. I would definitely return. I even stated that if this was near me, I'd be here all the time. read more

I first came here as a high school student years ago and recall enjoying the food and the good value. Many years later, I've returned and to my utter surprise the quality and value are still up to par. We've come back a few times in the last few weeks just because we have enjoyed this affordable meal so much. The chicken katsu comes with excellent and light tempura. The lunch special 2 rolls of futomaki and spicy honour roll is my new go to. As you can see in one of the photos, I ordered it with less rice and the ratio of filling to rice is now perfect. All lunch specials are served with a good serving of salad and miso soup. As of July 2024 the price is an incredible $13.25. Is it the best sushi downtown? Of course not. But for the price it is a quality that cannot be beat, and if the quality was at all poor or not fresh then I wouldn't return regardless of the price. Great, fast service. The tables move fairly quickly and the staff are efficient and friendly. read more

Our favourite go to sushi spot! I've been going to this spot since high-school, that's over 10 years now. Everything has been consistent, my favourite sushi spot in Toronto for good quality and good value sushi. Pictured here we have three lunch specials, every lunch special comes with a salad and a soup. It's a really good value, the lunch special is also available for the weekends too. Highly recommend! read more

Where to begin... I've been to Sushi on Bloor many times, however, the last time I had been was pre-COVID. Unsure if the quality would still hold up after a few years, I decided to try it out with my wife. To say the food was delicious would be an understatement. I ordered the Salmon Lover plate, which came with 6 pieces of salmon, 4 pieces of salmon nigiri and 4 pieces of salmon sashimi, and my wife ordered the Makimono Set, which came with 8 pieces of California Roll, 6 pieces of salmon maki and 6 pieces of spicy tuna maki. We both shared from each others plates so as to try out the different types of sushi, and by the end, we were two happy people with full stomachs. The food was very good, as always. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, cozy and quiet. The servers were also very kind, answering any questions we had and also re-filling our tea glasses whenever they were getting close to becoming empty. We were also provided with some salad and miso soup before we began our meal, which was greatly appreciated! At the end, we were also offered free ice cream, either mango or green tea. My wife and I both ended up choosing the mango ice cream, and all I can say is wow! The texture, taste and creaminess were just perfect. Next time I come to visit, I'll be getting myself some more ice cream! read more

This is a pretty good place to get some sushi at a (relatively) low price, keeping in mind that it can get pretty busy around eating hours. Sushi On Bloor is, indeed, a place on Bloor from which you can order Sushi; but there's a selection of other dishes as well. They make udon noodles, bento boxes, and teriyaki to suit your tastebuds. As for the sushi, you can order the many "super rolls" or choose a combo if you were craving a certain type. Regardless of what you order, you'll get a complimentary bowl of miso soup for your appetizer and a scoop of ice cream (mango or green tea) afterward. What I got was the gold maki set ($18.25), which included 8 tempura shrimp rolls, 6 spicy salmon rolls, and 6 unagi rolls; the latter I was looking forward to the most. It was great quality overall, and you'll definitely have your belly filled up from this. Service is great, and the staff are experts when it comes to handling larger groups. Especially when it was busy, we didn't have to wait long to get our orders. There's a 20% "service fee", but you fortunately don't have to pay any tip on top of that. Has my recommendation. read more

I got what was my third really bad order. So while it can be really good. Consider me staying away for now. This was my go-to sushi spot. I liked it. So I'm upset. I'm fine with one order being bad from a place I love or if it's something silly like forgetting sauce where I can politely remind them... but my order across the board was disappointing. When it gets to two bad orders I consider coming back the equivalent of Russian roulette. The highlights of the 3 bad orders were as follows: 1. The Salmon was weirdly cut or something because it was tough and some of the pieces had a bone in them that I had to spit out. 2. The avocado in the sushi rolls was rock-hard. 3. The tamago rolls had actual frozen egg. The egg was literally still frozen. It wasn't properly defrosted. I think I've had it. read more

This is a busy sushi shop. Very good values for the amount of good quality food. We ordered Ikayaki for appetizer, Tempura and sushi/sashimi combo dinners. The Tempura was excellent! Sushi/sashimi were tasty but with limited variety. We were totally stuffed! read more

Great sushi restaurant. good value for money. one of my favourite restaurants in Toronto

Always a good choice. Been going here for years and food is always fresh. Staff is always very nice. We always do take out and it is usually very quick. read more

I came here at 12 pm, near when they opened. I was awkwardly trying to look at the menu that was semi-taped on the window which was falling... So a staff member came up and re-taped it mid-lool. I noticed that they had a lunch special where you can choose two rolls, one from each group, for $9.xx plus tax. I went in to find that you only have a small booth space to order and pickup the food. It took quite a while before someone came to acknowledge me and take my order. I even tried calling in and no one picked up. When I finally did place my order, I was told it would take 20 mins to prepare my two lunch specials (wow, but they did seem to have a lot of other takeout orders to prepare, I'm guessing people called them in). I took a walk around the neighborhood and returned - food was ready in about 25 mins total. The food quality is not the most impressive but I really liked the portions. The salad was packed and the rolls themselves were quite big with a nice fish-to-rice ratio. Everything tasted quite fresh and I was content with the taste. Specifically, I got the spicy honor roll + spicy salmon maki. I just wish they put more spicy mayo in the spicy salmon maki as that was slightly lacking. Follow me on Instagram @oh.snap.vonny for more food reviews and photos! read more

Came back again for dinner and ordered some sashimi and rolls. The prices are really unbeatable and the sashimi was massive--1 piece of sashimi was definitely equivalent to 2 pieces of sashimi. It gets pretty crowded at dinner, so call ahead for a reservation or come a bit earlier/later than the dinner wave. Will definitely be coming back again! read more

Decent place! Great and super filling lunch specials. Their rolls are pretty thick and I was shocked at how big even the spicy salmon make was. Will definitely go back since I work in the area! :) they have both roll combos or hot food combos. The roll combos usually come w a special roll (like crunchy roll, dynamite roll, etc) and one basic maki roll. I hope they don't change! Lunch specials come with a soup and salad. read more

If you ask me where my favourite sushi place is - it is Sushi on Bloor! Make sure to call ahead as there is usually a line up, the staff are incredibly nice. The food here is reasonably price especially now with everything going up because of inflation. But the portions are very generous and they just seem to know how to make good classic sushi. The crunchy roll and soft shell crab is a must! Plus they also have complimentary ice cream at the end of your meal which is a plus! read more

Sushi On Bloor - My order - Sushi Bars Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We had a disappointing dinner here tonight. Wait staff was great, brought us basic miso soup and water while we looked at the menu. The soup was only ok. We ordered a number of appetizers and some sushi. The sushi came before any of the appetizers. The sushi rice wasn't great, tended to fall apart. I'm not sure if this was because it was poorly pressed when making the sushi or if it wasn't cooked correctly. The of the rice was okay. All the cuts of fish were very thin, taste was good. The California rolls were heavy on the avocado and not well formed, but again, they tasted okay. The gyoza was small, clearly store bought, and mediocre in taste. The tempura had a very thin layer of batter and did not have a great crunch, taste was okay. We tried their Rock and Roll (deep fried hamachi roll) and it was bad, very fishy tasting, plus the fish was overcooked and dry. We left most of this one untouched. Tamago was not prepared well visually , according to the kids it was so so. We also tried the Urajiro (Japanese mushrooms stuffed with minced shrimp) appetizer and it was completely forgettable. Looked like it was dipped in tempura batter, fried, and cut into slices. It was served with a warm tempura sauce. Little taste to it, not worth being on the menu. With all the choices of restaurants on Bloor in this area we will not be going back there again. I will add that the place was crowded, and people were waiting to be seated, but this is not a good sushi place. read more

I have been coming to Sushi on Bloor for over 10 years! I saw when they opened the second floor and my friends came so often at one point they started getting recognised by the owner when they visited. For the price in toronto, this is my favourite sushi place. We'll drive all the way from North Scarborough to eat here if we have the time. The menu has a great option of Maki, hand rolls and sashimi. They also have some other great Japanese dishes too. I've been a lot, and made a lot of well received recommendations from my friends - so here's some of my recommendations.. and then I guess we're friends. That's how it works, right? Sushi Pizza - really generous portion of salmon sashimi on top - perfectly fried rice cake underneath. Seaweed Salad - I have been spoiled by their style - everywhere else I go it lacks the crunch or the seasoning and flavour. Generous portion of roe on top. Sweet Potato Tempura - comes with the light soy sauce and is my fav tempura there. Always hot and flaky. Even 30 mins later when the humidity comes out a bit and gets less crunchy it still tastes so good. Negima Yaki - I haven't seen this anywhere else, but this is a high recommendation. Thinly sliced beef wrapped around green onion like a maki roll and then covered in their tasty teriyaki sauce. Super good. Ikayaki - (grilled squid with fresh ginger) Every kid I've been with LOVES this dish... even though it's got tentacles! Nice crunch on the outside from the grill but nowhere close to the rubbery overcookedness. All their rolls are great but my favourite is the spicy scallop. The portions are on the large side and the flavours are super fresh and juicy when expected. Super consistent and well balanced. I've ordered their lunch bento boxes - great value. I've had their dinners (terriyaki, katsu, udon) all well done. I have not had a miss here. A local legend for our crew. Hope you are able to enjoy it soon. read more

Need that sushi fix but don't want to pay a fortune? Sushi on Bloor is a nice little a la Carte that is good value for the amount of food you're getting. I do have to say that it's not the best sushi spot in the area but for a quick late night meal. You won't be disappointed. Came by on a Tuesday evening and it was packed!! We had a fairly large group but was seated promptly in the back. I ordered the salmon lover, salmon dragon, and crunchy role. The size of each role was pretty big and ended up being too much food and split the rest of it to the others at the table. Salmon was good although could be sliced a little thinner. It was a mouthful for sure. The crunchy roll was not very crunchy but did have good flavour. Wouldn't say it was the favourite of the bunch. I would say that the salmon lover would be really good value for the amount of stuff you're getting. That alone would be good to serve two people. read more

Amazing! Great food at a great price. Seriously, no complaints. For ~$8.50 during lunch time, you can get a filling meal. They have bento boxes, sushi roll combos, curry and rice, chicken katsu and rice, and other combinations of items for around this price during their lunch period. Good. Stuff. Most of the combos come with miso soup and a salad - these are good too and taste fine. Because of the good lunch prices, it gets really crowded here. Try and come early to beat the lunch rush or you'll end up waiting in line for about 10-15 minutes. read more

I'm a regular customer at Sushi on Bloor. I usually come here for their chicken bento box dinner or lunch specials. Their prices have increased over time. I got the lunch special (dynamite roll and salmon maki). Their sushi pieces are HUGE - much larger compared to other places. The salmon maki tastes fresh and the shrimp tempura in the dynamite roll tastes a bit hard). I decided to try out the chicken katsu udon lunch special today. It tasted alright. Too bad the udon has no vegetables in it. However, they give a good portion of katsu. FYI: there's usually a line up for dinner, so come early or come at a non busy time! They also give ice cream on the house for dinner. read more

Overrated and overhyped. Walking past this store, I normally see a long line of people waiting to be seated so I always assumed that the sushi here must be beyond stellar. I came here once for lunch and got the lunch special which ended up being the Dynamite Roll and Salmon Maki with Soup and Salad on the end. The miso soup tasted very standard and the salad was quite delightful. However, the Maki rolls were disgusting. There was zero flavour and it was extremely chewy and hard. I felt very uncomfortable eating the Maki rolls. The Dynamite Rolls weren't too bad, but they were also very plain. Dipping the rolls in soy sauce didn't make much of a difference. Definitely will not be coming back in the future and will save my money for better sushi. read more

Sushi On Bloor undoubtably has delicious sushi and an array of other food. As someone who has a mild shellfish allergy this may not be the best restaurant safety wise. I went with the beef sukiyaki which was stunning and delicious. When I asked the waitress about what was in it she was pretty vague but it turned out well! My partner got the sushi and had no complaints :) Overall, the food was delicious and it was an enjoyable meal. They service is often rushed but it is a popular joint so I don't blame them! read more

If you're in the area, this is a good place to check out for a quick sushi fix! Went here around dinner time with a group of six, since we were looking for sushi. Although the place was busy, we were still quickly seated and the servers took our orders right away. Went with their bento boxes which I think were pretty cheap for what it comes with: miso soup, salad, vegetable tempura, six rolls and choice of either chicken terikyaki or grilled salmon (10-12 dollars). They also gave a complimentary ice cream for dessert. Because it was busy though, it was hard to get ahold of our server, to ask for things like a refill on tea. Other than that, if you're in the mood for sushi for cheap, this is an option to try! read more

Stopped by here around 10pm on a Wednesday and the place was packed! We ordered 3 sushi rolls and a tempura udon and the total was around $36 after tips. When we were seated, we were immediately offered complimentary miso soup as well as ice cream at the end of the meal. The sushi rolls were quite big and filled with lots of fish, but they weren't the most flavourful. The tempura udon was around $9.25 and came with a huge plate of tempura - a lot more than other shops. The udon came about 5-10 minutes before the tempura did (probably because the restaurant was super busy). Overall I was very satisfied with the meal and a great deal for the price! The menu has a LOT of options and a huge selection of rolls and hot food items. Definitely will come back when I'm in the area! read more

Service was great and quick. Sushi lover was amazing - 14 pieces total, with 4 very generous pieces of sashimi and nigiri. The California roll was also delicious, with generous portions of avocado and salmon. Salad and ice cream (mango or green tea) was included as well without costing extra. I was extremely impressed, and will definitely be returning! Lots of people ordered takeout and there was a line-up even as we left. read more

This is one of my go-to sushi places in the Annex. Portions are substantial, prices are incredibly fair, and they get the food out to you quickly! The ambiance of the restaurant is like any other sushi restaurant in the area - nothing overly memorable but you don't come to Sushi in Bloor for that! I have tried many things of their menu and all are good portions and fair price: for appetizers, seaweed salad is a must. Mains: salmon or chicken teriyaki bento box; maki: dynamite roll, rainbow dragon roll, spicy tuna or salmon (you can ask for it crunchy and they'll at tempura bits), university roll, and honour roll are all good; their udon is also delicious. You'll need a reservation if you're planning on going between 6-8 PM any day of the week, unless you don't mind waiting 15-30 minutes. Japan Sushi and One Generation sushi nearby are comparable go-tos! read more

If I am craving sushi for lunch, Sushi on Bloor is my go-to restaurant. At 6.99 for their lunch special, it's hard to say no! They offer hot meals, bento boxes and sushi combos. I always order the S2 sushi combo - it comes with dynamite and avocado roll. Every lunch special comes with salad and miso soup so it ends up becoming quite filling. Back in the day I used to love Sushi on Bloor, day and night, but now I think it's simply a good cheap spot for your sushi craving at lunch. read more

Amazing sushi at even more amazing prices- this is a restaurant I come back to time and time again. This time, my boyfriend and I took advantage of their lunch special, each ordering a bento box (Chicken Katsu and Chicken Teriyaki respectively), as well as a sushi combo with the Dynamite Roll and Unagi (eel) Maki to share. The bento box comes with Miso soup, a salad, tempura, and seasonal fruit. You really can't go wrong with a bento box. For the sushi, the avocado and seafood was fresh and the ratio to rice was quite decent, although I would really like to see more Unagi in my roll. Our meal came up to less that $30, with tip. Bless the Sushi on Bloor gods for helping many a college student out! read more

Good sushi place on Bloor West, conveniently located with tasty, affordable sushi. The lunch specials were my go-to but have been going up in price over the years, making it not really worth getting as takeout anymore. The tea is complimentary and very delicious, almost like a roasted rice green tea?? Atmosphere is nothing special and it's always pretty busy, though we didn't have to wait. We ordered the dynamite rolls and crispy salmon, both were good and would recommend. The crab rolls were just okay. read more

Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday but he didn't make reservations so although it was going to be a bit of a wait the server asked us to wait outside as the entrance wasn't very big to fit all of us. Waiting outside I got to see a really nice graffiti wall beside the restaurant which was cool. The wait wasn't that long as it only took 15 minutes I made it in time for the lunch special as it was 3 pm by the time we seated and the lunch special sushi included a choice from a list of A and B kinds of rolls. I got the salmon roll and the spicy honour roll, it wasn't mentioned on the menu but my friend managed to order two rolls from the B list which would've been good. The rolls were thick but not evenly cut. Overall the taste was ok and for its price pretty worth it. The appetizers my friend ordered was pretty large as well. It is an ok sushi place and although it wasn't all you can eat I rounded up pretty full with just the lunch special read more

I don't get the hype for this place. The food is terrible. There's nothing I hate more than bland, warm sushi, overloaded with rice. Sushi On Bloor ticks off all of the above. We paid extra to substitute for spicy salmon maki, which ended up with a smidge of spicy mayo on the salmon. You could've even taste a difference. Whereas, compared to any other sushi resto, there's enough spicy mayo where you can visually tell it's a spicy roll. Everything roll we ordered, arrived warm. Warm fish, warm rice and a 2:1 rice to fish ratio. Some maki rolls were even worse, where the unagi would be 1/3 to the rice. There were flies everywhere and the tables reeked of dirty mop water. The meal was regretful. Would not recommend. read more
