Uber Eats review. Food: 4/5 Beef was tender and egg was still jiggly. Delicious, you may want to get another item as you will finish it quickly. I got the chicken karaage curry also. Service 5/5: Food came hot with no issues. Would definitely visit in person. Ambiance N/A: Did uber so can't comment on the ambiance. I've heard of this spot many times, can't wait to try in person. read more

Tokyo Kitchen - Gyudon - Japanese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I remember this was my last meal before moving to Ottawa from Toronto in 2019. Six years later, I'm glad to see it still going strong, albeit the portion is less than I remember, unfortunately. That said, covid and inflation are real and I still want to support Tokyo kitchen, especially given that their food is always fresh and well prepared. The vibe of the restaurant is always relaxing. One of my favourite things about Tokyo kitchen. read more

Tokyo Kitchen - Chicken Katsu Dinner Bento. 23.90. 30 dollars with tips and taxs - Japanese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

We visited Tokyo Kitchen during the big snowstorm after a friend recommended it. The menu looked reasonable, so I was excited to give it a try. It's on the smaller side, which is great if you're indecisive! We shared the Curry Udon, Salmon & Scallop Don, and Corn Creamy Korokke. Everything was decent, though I've had more flavourful curry udon elsewhere. They did have actual wasabi as well. The korokke was the highlight--crispy on the outside and creamy inside, almost like a deep-fried corn chowder. I finished the meal with a mochi, which was a nice little treat. Service was pleasant and quick, and the prices were reasonable for downtown. Overall, a solid spot for a casual Japanese meal! read more

First visit to Tokyo Kitchen at the recommendation of a friend. The standout items for me were the pork katsu and salmon & scallop sashimi. The pork was fried so well, and it wasn't dry at all on the inside, nor was it covered in sauce. The sashimi was also quite fresh! The bento boxes might not look like large portions, but trust me, it is very filling, especially with a generous portion of tempura. Their tempura batter reminded me more of fish & chips I would say, in that it wasn't as light/panko-flaky as most tempura that I've tried before. My friend opted for the shrimp croquette (again, fried to perfection and super creamy inside) and the sukiyaki udon, which looked so comforting on a chillier night. Service was attentive, with our server coming by regularly to refill our water and check in. The inside of the restaurant was fairly tidy/clean - including the washroom, which is a huge bonus for me. read more

Lowkey a hidden gem, because Tokyo Kitchen is the place to be! What we ordered: Chicken Katsu Curry Katsudon - Chicken Cutlet on rice with egg & onion Dishes are around $15 each and the service was efficient and our server was friendly!

Me and my friends went for lunch after having rehearsals, and this was an awesome lunch spot to go to! The prices were very good for the amount of food we got, and I love that they also served japanese sweets! I ordered the omelette curry and it was so good; the curry was the right level of spice and the omelette wasn't overcooked. I will definitely say get the stewed beef with it because the stewed beef was so soft and had alot of flavour. The service was quick, and the servers were so polite, I will definitely come back here again. The ambiance of the restaurant definitely gave like your typical Japanese eatery with the way the front of the restaurant was set up; I do wish they had a bigger place though as the bathrooms were in a bit of a tight space. read more

We came here for dinner and we were seated after a short wait. I would probably make a reservation if there were more than 2 of us next time as there aren't too many seats. We ordered takoyaki and chicken nanban as appetizers. I ordered the pork bento box and my boyfriend got the pork katsu curry with an omurice. The bento came with miso soup, tempura, salad, and sashimi. I really enjoyed the bento box and the sashimi tasted very fresh. We also had dango for dessert which was also very good. I would love to come back to try their donburi and other appetizers! read more

Solid place for a bento box, relax and good amount of food for a reasonable price. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here if you are out of town, but if I was here for a while or lived locally, this would be a regular spot if I wanted to feel satiated. We got the pork katsu bento which comes with rice, salad, miso soup, sashimi, and shrimp & vegetable tempura. The miso soup was solid, I didn't bother touching the salad knowing the task at hand. I was nervous if the sashimi at first but it was fresh and good. The scallops were large and sweet. The tempura and katsu were fried and strained so it didn't sit in a pool of its own grease. The pork was cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside and moist inside. If you are somehow still hungry, there is a gelato place next to the restaurant to hit up for a nice dessert before you roll back home. read more

Tokyo Kitchen definitely has a warm home-cooked meal feel to it. We went here for dinner and got: - Salmon Saikyo Bento: While the salmon was a bit small for the price, it was grilled to perfection. Side tempura had a good coating-to-shrimp ratio and sashimi was fresh. - Chicken Karaage Curry: Good fry to the karaage (tasty and not oily), super generous curry sauce. Added cheese and it helped break up the monotony. - Mitarashi Dango and Kashiwa Mochi: Loved these sticky desserts. Both were chewy delights. Prices were generally reasonable. Service was friendly and quick. Place was spacious and well lit. My wife loved it so much she got salmon ikura donburi delivered the next day (which had a generous serving of salmon and ikura). So looks like we'll definitely be coming back for more! read more

4.5 imo but we'll round up :). Came here on a Thursday night so it wasn't really busy. The storefront doesn't actually look that big but there's actually a lot of seating in there. Ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry (15.90), Shrimp Creamy Korokke (3.90), and to my surprise that they had - a glass of Asahi Black (8.90). I actually really enjoyed everything. The katsu was cooked just right, portions were on the large side, comes with a little salad. The korokke was probably my favorite thing I ordered. It's kind of fried to the texture of the katsu but is really creamy inside, quite nice! Food overall I'd probably give it a 4 but extra 0.5 for Asahi black offering. Very good and decent value for what you get! read more

This spot has all the Japanese staples, and a cozy comfortable vibe. Came here for a Saturday night dinner and waited for around 20 mins. We ordered the following: - Salmon & Scallop Don - Pork Katsu Bento I had the bento and liked how truly came with a bit of everything - a few pieces of sashimi, tempura, salad, and miso soup alongside the katsu. Both the tempura and katsu were fried well and everything tasted fresh. A bit of a bummer but I was told there was Asahi black here, which seems to have disappeared from the menu. I think I'd come back again for lunch though for a better value as dinner is quite a bit more expensive for a similar offering. read more

A friend introduced me to this place not too long ago and it was my first visit, but I'm already excited to go back! We came in on a Friday evening after work and it was pretty busy with almost all tables taken. What I had: - Chicken Karaage Dinner Set (Rice, Salad, Side Dish, Miso Soup) Final Thoughts: The restaurant is at a convenient location between Bloor and Wellesley stations with polite staff, good food, and I look forward to returning to try more of the menu. read more

Past by here multiple times as from the front it was never anything "special". This was easily a big mistake. Skimmed through the menu and saw many familiar Japanese dishes so decided to give it a shot. Opted for chicken curry, soba with assorted tempura, and original and corn kuroke. Curry was well portioned and extremely flavourful. The chicken katsu was meaty, crunchy, airy and light which complimented the curry well. Soba was wheaty as you'd expect and the tempura was crispy and airy. Both kuroke had an excellent shell but definitely the corn was the better of the 2. Not sure how I have been walking past this place without stopping and now I can foresee myself being back quite regularly! read more

A solid place to get your donburi and katsu fix. Sashimi and scallops were fresh, and the katsu chicken&shrimp donburi (Tendon) is comforting. I grabbed some takeout while I was in the area and noticed they also had Tofu cheesecake, hanami dango and other mochi treats. I definitely would've picked it up if it wasn't that I was already holding an ice cream cone in hand. Lots of seats were available on the weekday I was there. read more

If you love Japanese food and you're in Canada, this place is the place to go. I ordered the tonkatsu pork dinner and the pork was so delicious. I also ate a small salad that came with it but I don't eat anything else Japanese so I gave it all away. None of us could really understand what the waitress was saying, so it's kind of hard to order what she was telling us came with different things. We just nodded and agreed. Lol. Everyone who is with me absolutely loved their food though. They said it was so good. I had a bite of my sons Katsu pork curry, and that was very good. I make it that the next time.. My other son got some kind of salmon bowl and his girlfriend Aoi got some fried salmon dinner. Like I said, everybody loved everything they got. Instead of glass is a pop they bring you a canna pop and you can pour it in your glass if you want. They also shared an order of Dangos , but I didn't want any of that, I can't do the texture. The restaurant was cute and had cute things up on the walls and pretty lights hanging. It was a nice atmosphere, and I actually felt comfortable in there, which is not easy for me. It didn't take too long for our food to come either so that was nice. read more

I should have gone to ToroToro down the street, but I didn't want rolls. The chicken karaage dinner set came with miso soup, a small bowl of salad, a bowl of rice, and the chicken. I can't say anything good about the meal set - the miso soup was salty, the rice was hard and low quality (taking into account the price), a drip of dressing on the salad, and no sauce for the chicken which is very dry and tough. I was hungry but couldn't finish the meal because everything is so dry. I was told there is no sauce for the chicken and I had to request for mayo to consume 1/3 of the chicken. They must have lowered the quality of the dinner set, because I saw more side dishes on previous reviews and on the website. I would not recommend this dinner set. read more

I think this is a nice place in a bloor yonge area, that is off a really busy area that has a more laid-back style. Reminds me of a Japanese café. It is a very casual spot. We can order food for takeout, and there is also a small dining area just adjacent to the takeout area If you or someone that enjoys authentic casual Japanese cuisine, this is a good spot for you. They have many sashimi dons, Japanese curries, and bento boxes in the $15-$25 range. The curry has a good amount of spice. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, and there is usually not a long wait time. The only downside of this restaurant is at the dishes are mostly rice and sauce, so you may not be satisfied.

This place was recommended by a Japanese person and although most of the customers seemed to be young Japanese, I did not rate this restaurant highly. Firstly the crockery was all mismatched and cheap, it really distracted from the food. Japan has such beautiful tableware, please look into getting nice bowls & plates. Even the items in the bento did not fit in correctly. My salmon bento had some shrinkflation, such a tiny piece of fish and no pickles. The service was very quick but overall I was disappointed. read more

Had the same dish before a few times and it was decent. This time had a horrible meal, the batter is so soggy and falling off the vegetables. It is like made ahead of time and been sitting around for a whiles Not crispy and fresh as it should be. It is like being offered soggy bread, so unpleasant. Some vegetables like sweet potatoes and green beans are undercooked. Server are friendly but knowing I'm very upset with my dish did not offer anything. It is extremely disappointing to say the least. read more

This is a really cozy Japanese restaurant. I probably walked by the outside a bunch of times without realizing there was a restaurant here. They have a lot of things on their menu and I'll definitely be back to try them out. I got an assorted tempura set which came with a few sides and my friend got the salmon don. Both were tasty! The staff are so sweet - they were having trouble with their credit card machine so we waited a bit and they brought up complimentary green tea. read more

If you're looking don and katsu in downtown Toronto, this is the place to go. I've been here twice and have not been disappointed. I've tried both their Salmon Don ($17) and their chicken karaage curry ($16) and they do not miss. Their food is very delicious, the service is really good, and the prices are pretty good for what you're getting. Have never been disappointed by anything Tokyo kitchen and can't wait to go back my third time. read more

I have been to tokyo kitchen many many times, and I only order one thing from there; the tendon katsudon, which is the shrimp tempura, with pork/chicken katsu over rice. The portion I think got a little smaller than pre-pandemic, which imo its fine, the flavors is still amazing, the rice is soft and in sweet soy, the tempura is so crunchy but the shrimp inside is so soft, i love to eat with pork katsu (i think its better than chicken), ask them for some japanese spice powder, and put it on top, 10/10. why 4 stars? i think they dont really know how popular they gets, people tend to stay there for SOOOOOOOO long since there is no sitting restrictions, and they are giving 4 people table to single person, it is a individual merchant's choice which I respect, but it greatly reduces their efficiency and I have seen customers left because they didn't want to wait. read more

Fresh and quick service for a delicious Japanese home style lunch bento box. I absolutely loved their salmon miso bento box ($18) which came with rice, fresh salmon sashimi, salad with a Japanese sesame dressing, a large portion of mixed tempura (including shrimp tempura, sweet potatoes, different veggies), and of course, the miso marinated salmon. Can't wait to come back and try their japanese curry and soba noodles soon! The bento box definitely rates as one of the best value lunch options in the area. I really loved how clean tasting the deep fried foods were. read more

Came for late dinner around 9 PM on a saturday and it was completely empty. Which was good because we needed about a dozen seats and it was easy to accommodate. I haven't been to the old location but I like the decor here, including the seemingly half-furnished benches along the wall which gives it quite an interesting feel in contrast to the rest of the interior. Ordered the curry croquette, which was OK, but I think the katsu and karaage dishes tasted much better. Prices are a bit high but then again japanese places tend to have higher prices. read more

This is a very cute and well decorated place that is within walking distance to Bloor Yonge station. I loved the couch seating with the nice pillows and modern lights on top. This place has a cozy and modern vibe. They offer good lunch specials, which are a little pricy at about $16 and up for a bento box. I got the salmon bento box, which comes with sashimi, salad, shrimp and vegetable tempura as well. It was pretty good and tasted fresh! Bonus star for friendly service. They also have Donburi bowls, which comes at a decent portion. Considering the location, the prices are expected. The washrooms are also very clean, and decorated with chic items and photo frames. Would definitely come back again if in the area!! read more

Now this is Japanese home-style cooking. Went on a Saturday evening with a friend; it was quite packed. Their Bento boxes (~$22-25) are very, very jam-packed: a variety of sashimi and tempura in addition to the main and the usual soup and salad. The eel (unagi) I got was solid, as was the quality of rice it was on, but the sashimi was *excellent* - sweet in a way that I haven't experienced in North America. Service was kind, as you'd expect. read more
