Handrolls
Jennifer G.

Came here for a weekend lunch and tried the salmon lover $22 which comes with 8 pieces of pressed sushi, 3 pieces of sashimi, and 1 salmon handroll. We also had the blue crab salad $9. The 6 piece handroll set was $32 and came with lobster, eel, scallop, octopus, squid, and yellowtail. Everything is okay. Maybe my expectations were too high but the reviews that this emulates an omakase experience are not accurate. I think it does have a bit of the feel of a chef handing you something to eat directly, but everything was slightly off. Maybe it was the rice? I'm not sure. Nice to try once but I will stick to other favourite spots instead. Service was friendly and interior clean and spacious.

So pleasantly surprised with this location. The sushi was tasty and the price was amazing. We got 2 hand rolls, the oshi sushi and the sushi tacos. Considering how cheap the rolls were, the quality was surprisingly good! For an 8 piece oshi aburi salmon sushi, it was only $12, which I don't think you can get in many places downtown. The staff were so nice and you can watch the sushi chef making your sushi because of their bar style set up. It's like an omakase set up but a la cart. It would have been nice to have a few tables so we could go with friends, but regardless will order again. We also saw a lot of take out orders, so definitely very popular.

My friend and I came here for dinner last night and we both had the sake/salmon poke bowl which came with salmon, mango, edamame, avocado, corn, tomato, seaweed salad, masago arare, tobiko, sesame, dry seaweed, homemade sauce, on a generous bed of sushi rice. The sauce was this avocado mayo concoction that was so tasty and complimented the poke bowl really well. I felt there wasn't that much salmon for the amount of rice they put. Next time, if I get the same thing I will ask for less rice. Service was friendly and fast! I also had the miso soup which was a tasty warm hug. The store itself is also really clean, minimalist, and beautiful.

They soft-opened on 2025-03-30. During their soft opening period, you get 10% off the entire menu! They serve hand rolls, poke bowls, taco sushi, torched sushi, sashimi, and chirashi don. I ordered only one handroll because i have dinner plans: Maduro (Blue Fin Tuna) Handrool ($8.00). I got the 10% discount. The customer service was good. The indoor seating is sushi bar counter seating. You can watch the chef prepare food in front of you. The owner is a sushi chef himself. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, but there there is no door-open button. There is one gender-neutral washroom and it is wheelchair accessible. Review 2025-045

We came here on a Thursday night and the restaurant was not busy. We were able to find 5 seats next to each other. The sushi was amazing and we had a great time here. We loved the torched press sushi. The handrolls were great. My friend loved it so much that she wanted to order takeout the next day.

This is one of the GTA's only permanent Hawaiian places which doesn't just serve poke. Membership…read moreis free & member specials are quite aggressive. They have white & brown rice options. Chimichurri steak was pretty tasty. It was cooked to medium. Loco moco was pretty good though slightly overcooked. Sides & rice were quite plain. Pork adobo plate lunch (lunch portion): pork was tasty: sweet, sour & salty with some fat. Some sauce dripped down & flavoured the rice. There was seaweed on the rice which gave it an umami boost. Lemonade had a nice texture from the basil seeds & a passionfruit accent besides the lemon. Spam musubi was good. The rice was slightly sweet & sour with added flavour from the furikake. There was a good balance of spam & rice & quite a bit of seaweed. Huli Huli chicken plate was tasty with moist chicken & a hint of chili. There was a good sweet, savoury & sour balance. The slaw had a zesty crisp & an intriguing flavour note.  Butter mochi was very good: rich, chewy & slight crisp at the edges with a nice coconut topping.

Pokito is a Hawaiian restaurant/take out joint located along Queen St. W. near Spadina Ave (close…read moreto Cameron St.). They've been a staple for poke in the area for years, however, their menu has expanded to include more Hawaiian foods like plate lunches and snacks (like onigiri and spam musubi). I recently stopped by Pokito to pick up take out for dinner as I had stumbled upon a $10 coupon from the restaurant over Facebook. Upon entering, the space is inviting and warm, with wooden accents throughout the space. There are several tables if you'd like to dine in. The menu is large and they also have daily deals as well. In the small fridge display they have a sample of their poke on display along with other items like onigiri, desserts, and drinks. Their poke bowls are likely the most popular items to be ordered but definitely don't skip out on the plate lunches as well! I opted to grab a garlic shrimp scampi plate lunch (tail-on shrimp sauteed in buttery garlic sauce on rice (can choose between white or brown rice) with mac salad and a salad slaw) for $22.50. I did have $10 off my order which was great. If you sign up for their rewards program you also get other deals as well (the next deal I get is 50% off a plate lunch for a limited time!). My order was made fresh which took about 5-10 min. I didn't mind as I just sat down to wait. Service was friendly and efficient. I had my garlic shrimp scampi plate lunch for dinner. Beware that the shrimp is really garlicy and delicious! Just be careful if you need to talk to someone afterwards because they will smell it. The rice absorbed some of that garlic flavour which made the rice even better. The mac salad was great and the salad slaw helped to cut through everything as well. Portions were large and I was full afterwards. Overall, a great place for Hawaiian plate lunches (and I'm sure poke as well!) in the Queen/Spadina area. Definitely will return to try more of their plate lunches as well as poke.

I changed things up and visited the food court at Atrium on Bay. It was nice seeing several stalls open at around 4:30 pm. It was a toss-up choice between My Sushi or Fusia Asian Kitchen. I looked at the former's menu and liked what I saw. An early dinner from My Sushi, it was! You can get a bunch of sushi rolls. There were many options. I took one look at the poke menu and knew I needed a bowl. I got a regular. You can also do a large. A Chinese couple owns this business. The man took my order. The woman prepared my bowl. The man was helpful and nice. He said that I could do rice or salad, or half of each, if I liked. I went with salad. For the sauce, I chose teriyaki. I also got a Diet Coke. I waited patiently for my food. It didn't take too long. The woman asked if I needed a plastic bag. I waived it off, as I was going to rip open and devour my food at the food court. I cracked open my can of Diet Coke. It was cold and hit the spot. I loved my poke bowl. The salmon was fresh and yummy. The mandarin oranges were a nice twist. They brightened this bowl significantly. There were crispy green bits that I enjoyed, but I didn't know what I ate... lol The greens are iceberg lettuce. I would have liked mixed greens, but the crisp lettuce worked out surprisingly nicely. The half-avocado's presentation was amazing. It was cubed and fanned out. This find was awesome! I would love to return for more. The regular-sized poke bowl was perfect. Down the road, I can see my getting a large. Perhaps I'll try the sashimi next. I love sashimi! (197)
