“Wonderful lunch experience with @Katsuya.ca definitely must try! Great food awesome staff. Thanks for a great experience“

“Quality was on point, great variety! Beef, pork belly, and seafood were all fresh.
Cooked food and desserts were also good, the caramel pudding was especially awesome. Service was efficient and they changed the grill frequently. For this price, getting all this is totally worth it. Will come back again!“

“Amazing sushi! The fish was super fresh and full of flavor. The staff were kind and welcoming, and the atmosphere was cozy. Highly recommend the salmon and tuna – so delicious! It’s also a perfect place for family gatherings, meeting friends, or enjoying a drink with good food. I’ll definitely come back again.“

“Delicious take out! Pretty platter!“

“KSushi is such a great hidden spot. I go with my girlfriend before archery practice, and it’s always amazing.
The sushi is fresh, delicious, and has that expert homemade touch you don’t find everywhere.
They have a great variety, and everything tastes spot on.
The staff are super kind, and the whole place has a welcoming vibe. Definitely worth checking out if you love quality sushi and friendly service.“

“10/10 recommend, and would definitely return.

Having just come back from a trip to Japan, I thought I might want to wait a little longer before eating sushi, and going to an omakase at that. Little did I know that this experience would prove me wrong so quickly. Chef Lam was so meticulous when preparing each piece and we were having a great time chatting, drinking and watching him put so much care and attention into the presentation. The fish was so fresh and buttery, personally, I loved the white fish nigiri and torched salmon the most. The sake sangria may be a little strong for some but very good nonetheless.

Street parking is limited so another option is to use the building parking around the corner - make sure to use the visitor parking.“

“This place deserves more than 5 star. It's very difficult to find a true Japanese restaurant and the quality is just a top notch. Words cannot explain how good this place is. You must try. There are only about 6 tables and making reservations are recommended.“

“good services, highly recommended“

“The quality of food is good and consistent and they are very reliable. It’s a hidden gem. We ordered 2 sushi platters, 3 dinner specials and 3 udons and the food was fresh and packed well and they got the order right.

So happy that they also offer a vegetarian sushi platter!

So glad we found our go to sushi place in the neighborhood!“

“I had lunch here with my family and i like the atmosphere, child friendly and good food.“

“Decent place to satiate my craving for sushi rolls and ramen. Ramen prices are around $13.99 to $15.99, and I take advantage of the sushi rolls daily special for $9.99.Portion size is good and they add lots of toppings, and the broth is tasty.“

“First time at the Keele Kibo location. They didn't offer the $6 cash & carry special. The sushi and maki rolls were made fresh to order. There are parking spots in the strip plaza. Friendly staff and this location is good for takeout instead of dining in.“

“I order here a lot. It's a small unassuming shop in a food court but the food is really really yummy, very reasonably priced. I'm so used to the deliciousness here that I forget how spoiled I am that when I eat other sushi I find myself disappointed elsewhere.“

“Great service. Great food. And drink. And atmosphere.“

“Fairly big restaurant that looks to have been around for a while. We decided to drop by Wednesday night and the dining area was fairly empty, though did notice quite a few takeout orders while we were there.

Service was top-notch, and the food was good (serving size of the boxes were A++). This is not a fancy Japanese restaurant, but a family-owned local joint. Would definitely be back.“

“It was our first time visiting this place, and my friend and I picked it completely by chance. We looked at the reviews, saw a 4.5 rating, and thought, okay, that sounds great. Even though it was late at night around 9:30 PM, the server was extremely kind and welcoming, and even let us sit on the patio.

Our food came very quickly, and the most impressive part of this restaurant was how genuinely nice and friendly the staff were. A lovely young lady named Kiin was incredibly sweet, polite, and patient. She kept checking on us with such kindness. Another young server, a guy, was just as amazing, and they both made our experience a hundred times better.

It was a rainy evening, but thanks to them we had such a wonderful time. Our sushi came fast, was very fresh, and tasted excellent. Everything was just perfect. I even asked for the young lady’s name so I could mention her here, because she truly made our night special.

Without a doubt, I’ll be going back many, many times, and I highly recommend this place if you want a great experience, if you’re craving sushi, or if you just need something to brighten up your mood. Everything was so good that if I could give 6 stars instead of 5, I absolutely would“

“Great value for money. We ordered their bento box and it came with chicken karaage, rice and cutlet. Very good portion for $15. There's not a lot of restaurants has price this good anymore. They have a lot of food selection under $20. Worth your precious dollars.“

“Absolutely one of the top 5, if not the best Japanese restaurant in Toronto! The ambiance is cozy yet spacious, with perfect lighting. The staff’s service is top-notch, and most importantly, the food is outstanding. From sashimi and sushi to specialty rolls and other cooked dishes, everything is incredibly delicious. Prices are reasonable, and they stay open late too. Highly recommend!“

“Noah Kosher Sushi makes some of the best sushi I've ever had. Period. I always get the raw fish variety (Salomon or Tuna) and sometimes the cooked ones in addition. The fish is always fresh and tasty. The prices for a tray are comparable to other places and are generally affordable. The establishment is clean and tidy and the stuff is very friendly and approachable. However, Noah sets itself apart primarily by taste: it's absolutely delightedly yummy. I sometimes go out of my way in order to pass by them, just to come in and buy a tray of sushi.“

“I’ve been coming here for my lunch for a couple of months now. It’s an amazing place. Fantastic food, wonderful atmosphere, enjoyable music, and the staff truly cares! If you’re in the area during lunch time, this place always seems to have space.“

“Had dinner here today. They take reservations! Our server was lovely. She was friendly and attentive and helpful.
I ordered two massive rolls. Each piece was huge. I either, stuffed the whole thing in my mouth and chewed while looking like a hamster or took 1 bite first and everything else just fell all over the place lol. Not a complaint though!
Both my rolls were yum. I was very happy with my food. Their miso soup is good too. Hubby ordered one roll and ate some of mine. I left feeling satisfied!
The only small complaint are the greasy floors to the washroom. I had to walk carefully so I wouldnt slip. Also, the front door could use some cleaning.“

“Very nice fresh fish Sushimi imported from Japan and so sweet and friendly accommodations.“

“Today was my third time ordering on ubereats and it NEVER disappoints I normally don’t write a review but this place is one of the best sushi I’ve ever had, the fishes, and veggies are so fresh and the decor is soo pretty too. Everything literally melt in my mouth it was just so perfect for me so far. I live really close but I was missing out!! Truly a hidden gem thank you so much ❤️🙏“

“We have visited this location and Yonge & Sheppard and are equally pleased with both. Excellent service, food and variety. Oysters are always well shucked and cleaned. Delicious east coast and west coast fresh oysters! Would also highly recommend octo wasabi appetizer and their Japanese sliders. Love the atmosphere of this place!“

“Love this place Great if you’d like something different“

“Fabulous lunch - incredible experience !“

“Been coming here for 20 years and it’s always the same - bearish pizza I’ve had ANYWHERE - underneath the salmon is finely diced cucumber and daikon which adds to the perfect texture. The Yorkdale roll is basically a deep fried dynamite roll - so good. Service is good for me, to the point and friendly enough. Atmosphere - you can expect a 20+ year old restaurant but it’s clean and cozy.“
