Great sushi take out spot in the area! Pricing is already with tax included and I would say it's not too bad for what you're getting. They provide great choices if you wanted combination platters/combos because you get to pick from a good set of options! I went in for lunch to check it out and picked up a lunch combo where I chose spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls. They were great size and flavour. Service was quick and staff made my sushi right away. The lunch combo came with soup or a drink. it's a small shop just for take out! read more

Tried this restaurant on Boxing Day because Mi Ne in Aurora was closed. We ordered the Medium Combination platter ($102) for take out and received 2 complimentary appetizers as the total was above $80, we ordered 2 seaweed salads. Overall the experience was mediocre, the cuts weren't as good as Mi Ne (our go to sushi restaurant in the area). read more

Rolls and more Rolls! A small takeout sushi joint that makes me happy with that stuffed rolls. I hope you like avocado! Their avocado rolls are amazing, prepared with so much avocado. Orangeville Roll, a nice combination of scallops, salmon and avocado with a touch of spiciness. There is 2 tables if you do want to enjoy your food here. I do wish that there is a more environmental friendly options when people eat in. Too much styrofoam and plastic made me feel guilty. All prices includes tax! read more

They have weird hours before, not sure if it's because of Covid, but it seems kinda difficult to match their hours. Anyway, finally had a chance to go. I'm always intrigued by the pictures how big their rolls look. They close at 730pm on a Friday as stated on its website. When I went in before 7, the chef at the front was so rude. I was asking for the all day special and he yelled at me NOT TAKING ORDER! SORRY! Ok fine I didn't know that you stop taking orders early. You can put a sign or something instead of yelling at me. Sounds like he's overworked and frustrated. Shouldn't you be happy making rolls and money? Anyway, wont be buying from them. When will Newmarket / Aurora have more affordable sushi option.... read more

yamato sushi is a hole in the wall sushi joint. It is hidden in a small plaza beside the Alley and Chocolat Favori. They have 2 tables to sit if you wanted to eat your food there, but they are primarily a take out establishment. They have a variety of rolls, separated into categories. Lots of different meal combo options and definitely a place that surprised my tastebuds. We ordered 3 rolls and they were massive. The spicy salmon, the spider roll and the double shrimp roll? They were flavourful and a huge mouthful. For the price of what we paid, i am definitely going to go back. read more

Yamato Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

This place was recommended to me by a friend for their speciality in delicious maki. My friend was not wrong. All the rolls were delicious and the outside was rolled with just the right amount of rice. My biggest pet peeve with maki is when they use too much rice and not enough filling. But this place has huge rolls with over the top filling. Everything is super fresh. One thing that I would have changed was the avocados in the salmon avocado roll was not ripe enough yet. Other than that delicious rolls for an amazing price. I liked that we had the option to choose what rolls go into the platter as most places don't do that. We got the medium maki platter- filling for 3 people. Would def come back read more

Yamato Sushi - Medium roll set with free app gyoza - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Ordered the 2 rolls (spicy tuna and spicy salmon) lunch special and I found the tempura bits overpowering. Didn't feel like there was much fish in them. There's a thin layer of rice and generous stuffing. The miso soup was good. I'll have to try other items on the menu next time. Unfortunately as the first visit, it'll have to be a 3 star for me. read more

Yamato Sushi - a tray of sushi with a lemon wedge - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Opened just a few months ago, Yamato Sushi is already popular AF in the Aurora neighbourhood! In a short period of time, Yamato has captured a loyal local customer base :) My husband is obsessed with this place, and we frequent at least once a week. For a take-out sushi joint, the menu prices are very reasonable, lunch special prices are even better, service is friendly and the food order comes out SUPER FAST - a 27 piece small sushi party tray with 3 different kinds of sushi rolls can be done in 10 minutes - who does it in that speed! Yamato mainly specializes in sushi rolls. You can also have the chef torch your rolls upon request! My favourite sushi roll would probably be the Scallop Roll ^^ You will also receive a stamp for every $10 purchase. Once you filled 10 stamps on your card, you can redeem a free Dynamite Roll. And when you spend $30 or over, you will receive free appetizer(s) on the house as well! The only con I have at this time is that the sushi rice goes really hard overnight in the fridge! So make sure you eat them fresh and not leave any leftovers! Side notes: It is located in the same plaza as Levetto Aurora, Chocolats Favoris, and Sunny Morning Breakfast & Lunch (opening soon!). This small plaza has limited parking spots. Be sure to call in to order in advance, and have someone drop you off to pick up your order! Delivery is also availabile if you live in the area. If you do dine in, there is one table for 4, and a sushi bar area for 2-3 people. read more

In a world of similar take out sushi joints, Yamato stands out for their spectacular maki rolls. Prepared with a perfect ratio of rice to fish. Also, tax is included and they're extremely reliable. read more

Finally tried this after so many friends raved about it and I get why, their lunch specials (11am-3pm) and prices cannot be beat for a pricey area like Aurora. What I ordered: - spicy salmon roll - spicy tuna roll - sushi combo C with a dynamite roll Everything was $35 including tax and I received 2 miso soups and 2 pops. I believe when you reach the $35 mark you receive a free app or drinks. They also have a stamp card system every time you visit. Food/Taste The rice to filling ratio is what I loved most!! A thin, tight border of rice and an overflow of filling - very similar to Mi-Ne Sushi. I enjoyed that they didn't mix their spicy tuna and salmon with a bunch of bread crumbs inside as filler. The sashimi was quite fresh and between 2 people there was plenty of leftovers. Highly recommend for everyone in and surrounding areas, they were super sweet when I came in to pick up as well. I love supporting local businesses that deserve it :) read more

Stumbled this sushi take-out place on our way back to Toronto from up North and I must admit that I am pleasantly surprised for the quality/price ratio. We ordered the large sushi and roll party tray, which is enough to feed 5-6 hungry people (45 nigiri sushi and 60 rolls). They make the sushi on the spot, so be prepared to wait. If you want to avoid the wait, you can call ahead of time. As mentioned, given their price point, I have no complaint about their sushis. Best part of all is that if you spend over $35, you get a free appetizer (either gyoza, miso soup, salad or spring roll), which is even better than cherry on a sundae (pun intended)... There is also a loyalty program in place: every $100 spent, you get a free dynamite roll. If you live in the Aurora area, then I highly recommend this place, but I don't think it's worth driving up if you live in Toronto, especially since there is no seating! read more

Order here regularly, hours have been somewhat funny and on and off though. Sometimes when we come they are closed already (within business hours?) once we came before closing and were told that they will not have time to fulfill our order before closing and were sold out for the day. The food is great though, I really like the rolls and we do order pretty regularly. We have been coming since opening and have never had any problems with the food. Service is very friendly also. The restaurant is clean, but we always take to go. The restaurant has seating, but it's more of a take out place. We will keep coming, love their sushi rolls! read more

Yamato Sushi - Rainbow dragon roll, unagi roll, salmon roll, spicy salmon roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

There's no shortage of sushi restaurants in Aurora but Yamato Sushi is by far the best. Their rolls are flavourful and packed full with ingredients and a thin layer of rice. Many of the saucy rolls don't even need soy sauce. They have many lunch deals and party tray combos that are great value and come with a side (salad, gyoza, spring roll). They also have a great rewards system where every $10 spent is a stamp and for every 10 stamps you get a free 9-piece dynamite roll. Service is also prompt and friendly. Note: this is mainly a takeout restaurant and has limited seating. As well, parking is often bard to find in this small plaza. read more

Yamato Sushi - Spider roll, spicy california, spicy crab, crunch roll (medium party tray $48) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

I want to say.. THANK YOU CHERRIE for taking me to this place in your hood! We came here recently and ordered a $30 sushi platter, which comes with 4 rolls of your choice and they range from 6 to 8 pieces depending on what roll you get. So you are getting 30 pieces of sushi for $30 which is an amazing deal! Wait there's more! If you order $30, they give you a free appetizer, your choice of either salads or gyoza! Sushi rolls are large and the ingredients taste fresh, staff are super friendly and I was very surprised they gave us 6 gyoza when it's free! I will definitely be back again when I'm in the area and I'll make sure I drag Cherrie out with me as well! read more

Yamato Sushi - Spicy Tuna & Dynamite Roll for Lunch Combo with Miso Soup $15.00 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

A great little take out spot in Aurora. Lunch special is a great deal and the sushi rolls have very little rice, so if you are all about the fillings, Yamato is for you. They also put a drizzle of sauce on some rolls, that I will ask for them to leave off next time. Because we spent more than $35 we received a free appetizer and we chose Gyoza, (fried meat dumplings) which hubby loved. My personal favourite was the tempura- it's my comfort food that I will never make at home - so finding a place that makes crispy, flaky and not oily tempura that I can take home is great. The price for how many shrimp and yam you get is a bargain. Will definitely be back! read more

This spot is great! The roll selections are amazing especially for those that cant eat raw foods. The make rolls are huge and definitely worth the price. Best sushi joint in new market for sure. I definitely recommend getting one of the platters, as it gives great selection and price is so good. read more

This place is pretty good for affordable priced sushi for a quick bite. The rolls are abundantly stuffed and their sashimi is pretty fresh. They have a pretty good selection of lunch specials as well. However for the past 2/3 times of ordering, there was always some problem. For the first one, they got my order wrong and insisted that I did in fact say the wrong order detail, which I found rude because I know I didn't and my partner heard me as well. The second is when I opened the box and there was a fin/plastic-like tiny black thing on top of my sushi and I have no idea what it was (its in my picture). Regardless both experiences were not pleasant and hopefully if I do order from them the next time, there won't be any problems. read more

Always great tasting sushi and perfect for a take out dinner. Usually their combos are the best option which end up working out to basically $1 per roll (for the size of each roll that's a steal!). Loyalty card and daily lunch specials make this place the biggest bang for your buck. I haven't been content with AYCE places since coming to Yamato Sushi. My new regular spot :-) read more

Yamato Sushi - Philadelphia roll and Salmon & Avocado roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

Ordered spicy combo $22. Maybe I got comparisons from better sushi places but if this is not covid time I would not give 3 star. The combo consist of spicy tuna roll, spicy salmon roll and spicy crab meat roll. The spicy tuna and spicy salmon has lots of filler and can barely have any pcs of salmon or tuna. They are so tiny that you cannot tell if it was actually tuna or salmon. See pic and determine for yourself. The staffs super nice. Maybe will try other rolls in the future but not sure if worth the money for value. read more

All they do is rolls, so if you're expecting anything really authentic, you'll be disappointed. Also, they're big on sauces and filler to make their rolls look more substantial and impressive. Good sushi doesn't need this kind of treatment. I'm always concerned when I see sushi covered in sauce. There are better choices in the area and the prices here aren't cheap either. Not likely we'll be back. read more

The guys are trying hard, but the sushi is below par, and in some cases worse than supermarket variety (the sushi at Longo's is way better than this). Having had 3 different rolls, I know it's not an accident. Adding insult to injury, they are priced similarly to some of the best sushi joints in the northern part of the GTA. Not a repeat, under any circumstances. read more

I asked if they could not put seaweed paper in my sushi and the owner or manager I guess was so rude and straight up told me "NO" I asked why and both of them didnt bother even trying to work with me or maybe even suggest something else cause they were too busy making sushi Customer service is horrible and I am very disappointed. I work in retail and customer service is everything to us .. read more

Super excited to finally have a sushi restaurant in Aurora that doesn't gouge you on prices and skimp on quality and quantity. The shop is small but in a way it's good so it keeps their overhead down. I don't write many reviews so when I do, it's because I'm quite excited about the establishment. I ordered the Take Combo (26pcs) and a Rainbow Dragon Roll (9pcs) for take out. The portions were very generous as were the roll sizes! Prices all include tax already. Mine came out to $44. Way better in value than other sushi restaurants in the area. As if this wasn't good enough already, they have a frequent buyer card where you get 1 stamp for every $10 spent. 10 stamps get you a free dynamite roll! Keep it up, Yamato Sushi! read more

My husband and I have been wanting to try this place for a while now, but we were a little hesitant because it looked small and didn't seem like there was much seating. However, what they lack in seating, they make up for in food! We were so impressed by the size of their rolls. We got the yamato lunch ($18), includes 5 pieces of sushi, 6 pieces of sashimi and your choice of a set selection of rolls (we got the dynamite). We also got the Orangeville roll ($18), which is spicy salmon and scallops, topped with MORE salmon! But what really makes us want to go back is the fact that their fish is very fresh and they give big pieces, whereas some other sushi places give more rice instead of fish. To top it all off, their pricing includes taxes, so we paid a flat fee of $36. If you're looking for a bang for your buck, this is the place to go! read more

Missioned all the way to Aurora from Downtown Toronto to try this place out and was not disappointed! These rolls are so packed with filling that I'm surprised they don't break apart. We ordered the medium party tray and it came with a free app. We had the spicy salmon, spicy scallop, spicy crab meat, spider roll and orange dragon roll. They were all delicious. I especially liked the spider roll. The only thing I noticed was that the shrimp tempura was not super crunchy but we did have to drive a long way up there and back. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Can never get an order in. I tried giving this place multiple opportunities. Seriously, when do customers have to call in order to get some sushi? The day before? Days before? Either I call right at opening time to get pick up sushi for lunch, and they say come in the afternoon which is for dinner now or more frequently the response is that they're done with all the orders for the day. read more

Thank you fellow yelpers for this recommendation. I went here just before closing to try some of the rolls. The torched dynamite roll is out of this world!! Must try as was my favourite one and so unique. My husbands favourite was the green dragon roll as they do it different from other places and in his words he thought he was eating popcorn lol. I think what's different about theirs is that there is a sauce drizzled on top with some seeds, so good! We tried their spicy tuna and it was very fresh and good big portions. Although it may be a little pricier than other sushi places, it is fresh, delicious and great service. I will definitely try it again as now I want to also order more rolls from their symbol menu and experiment with the torched rolls. Again be sure to order a torched roll!! You will not regret it. read more

The sushi here is AMAZING. I am seriously never disappointed when I order from here, and I am most definitely a regular. For $14, I get 2 sushi rolls that are twice the size of most places, which makes it great for sharing or leftovers. It's worth the money hands down. It's more of a takeout restaurant than sit down, and be prepared to wait for an hour or more depending on the time that you call in to make an order. But you won't regret it! read more

Yamato Sushi - Yam tempura roll and avocado roll. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Aurora, Ontario

4.5 stars This restaurant specializes in sushi. Similar in type to Sushi Bong and Gals' Sushi. Primarily a takeout place, but they do have a few seats. They really make the rolls well and they don't skimp, unlike other places that use much more rice than filling. I like that they are flexible and allow you to choose what type of rolls you want in your platter. Their prices are fair, especially in comparison to other sushi places in the area. I hope they stay around, as they are our default sushi place in the area! Food tried: Sushi roll platter Free spring rolls (they also offer other options) Service: Excellent, no complaints read more
