“10/10
I've been a happy customer here since 2003. Excellent food! Great quality sushi! Never any complaints. I have gone here many times on dates and with friends. The couple that owns the restaurant are always really nice too.“

“I was so pleasantly surprised that there's such a wonderful Japanese restaurant not far from me.
The food is fresh, delicious, and served in a manner pleased for eyes.
The portion is great and prices are reasonable.
To be full, you need just 20-30 dollars per person.
I am not even say how friendly staff are. They are here for help, but not overwhelmed you by their presence.
It was great experience for me and my family. I am so appreciated for spending time in Goen.“

“I’ve been coming here since 2018 and this place has been amazing! The menu is quite vast and I find that the combos are the best bang for your buck! This family run and operated place has amazing service as well, with first items coming out in less than 10 minutes after ordering. I’ve been to quite a few sushi places in my time, and they hands down have the best shrimp nigiri and tuna. Highly, highly recommended. Extremely convenient to get to as well!“

“Good food at a fair price.

Been a few times now and I’m still surprised at the prices each visit.

My most recent order was the teriyaki chicken bento box which comes in at an astonishing $12.50! With other comparable spots pricing their boxes from $18-$22, the value seems ridiculous.

However, there are a few caveats to this price:

1. No rolls are included with the meal. Other restaurants typically include 4-6.
2. The tempura was lacking. Only 2 pieces and they were broccoli and mushroom. Would pay more for some shrimp or yam.

For the price it’s difficult to complain and I left feeling satisfied. If you’re craving some Japanese food at an affordable price, Sushi Zuki is the place to go.“

“Order through DoorDash a few times now. Always very fresh and delicious. Never had a spicy crab roll before and now I love them! Gonna try and come in person sometime to see what else the supermarket has. Their crazy salmon roll was very good. Photos are of their maki set.“

“I’ve ordered two types of sushi for dinner, both were delicious.
Delivery took in total about 30-35 minutes, that’s really important for me as well as good food quality.
Food was delicious, inside the bag was also free miso soup and side salad. I noticed some extra utensils and extra napkins as well.
Good amount of wasabi and ginger.
Definitely recommend“

“Very goid service“

“Still my favourite neighbourhood sushi resto. Small, sweet and very well done.“

“The seared wagyu with uni was a total win before catching the Raptors game tonight. I am definitely the most fun part of the menu though, so if you are the type who appreciates a girl who is actually worth the effort, let me know when you are ready.“

“Had Valentines dinner there last night. The first dinner package was mainly sashimi but the changed it to sushi for us at a reasonable extra cost . The food was excellent and the wait staff were attentive and friendly. Will definitely go back. An extra was that the waitress who greeted us was Japanese.“

She’s incredibly efficient and somehow manages to cover so many tables so quickly while still being attentive and friendly. You can really tell how experienced and skilled she is, and she genuinely seems to love what she does. Amazing service!“

“Had a nice visit here for a few bites and drinks. I’ve been to Imanishi maybe three or so times now over the years and glad to see they’re still going strong and getting lots of love from the city.

Had the Mackerel dish which was my favourite out of the ones we tried. One order comes with two pieces, so it’s good for sharing. I liked that you could eat everything, including the bones. The fish was cooked well and I really liked the glaze/ sauce which was sweet and complimented the saltiness with the fish.

The corn was crispy and flavourful. They’re cased in these fried bubbles that pop air while you’re crunching into them and help boost the flavour in my opinion. It was seasoned well, but I think it would have been interesting with some kind of cheese component or something else to add another dimension to it.

We also tried the chicken karaage which tasted like most that I’ve had before at other places. I was not particularly a fan of the sauce which had a strong vinegar taste to it. Also generally not a fan of mayo. Overall, the dish, which used dark meat, felt greasy to me and heavy with the sauce but the acid from the vinegar being too harsh.

Staff were very friendly and attentive. They kept coming back to check in with us and refill our waters.“

“Good quality food. Fresh sashimi. Expensive though“

“I stopped by one afternoon with my mother for a little nibble and was pleasantly surprised. We ordered the Torched Salmonand Traffic Light rolls, and they were so fantastic that we came back the very next day for more.

The pieces are generous in size, incredibly fresh, and packed with flavor. The service was outstanding—everyone was so friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better.

The atmosphere is a little rundown and the space is small, but the quality of the food more than makes up for it. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for delicious sushi at a great value.“

“We won this from Oni poke's Instagram giveaway. They were super accomodating and gave us such an incredible quantity of food. The food was extremely high quality and delicious. The presentation was gorgeous and the serving size was extremely generous. Thank you so much!“

“Everything was excellent! The omakase was delicious, and every dish was beautifully prepared. The chef was warm and friendly, and the service staff were attentive and welcoming throughout our meal.

Been to a lot of them.....high end and HIW....but this place tops them all.
Best quality fish. Best portions. Best tempura batter....and thr pricing is the best part.

Furthermore, the establishment is family-friendly, making it an ideal destination for individuals with children. The owner and staff demonstrated remarkable professionalism and courtesy throughout our visit. Based on this positive experience, we anticipate revisiting this establishment in the future. ❤️“

“Anytime I’ve visited, the sushi has been delicious. So many good options for vegetarians as well. Portions are great, and the service is splendid. You can either order with someone or off the tablet, which makes service very speedy. The restaurant itself has some very cute booths too that feel very intimate. I recommend!!“

“Great ambience, friendly staff and tasty food. Really love the beef tataki , beef tartare and salmon tartare. Ingredients are very fresh. Love the mentaiko Caesar salad; tasty and fresh. Will definitely try other selections on the menu next time.“

“We ordered the Dragon roll trio, but I have also come here for a bunch of their other rolls. Always a good experience and love the fact they are open late, definitely hard to find good sushi places open late. Always a go to when I'm in the west end.“

“Hands down one of the best pickup experiences I’ve had! We ordered the sushi and sashimi roll platter, and every single piece was amazingly fresh. Beyond the delicious food, the hospitality here really stands out. It has that authentic, friendly mom-and-pop feel that makes you genuinely happy to support them. Plus, they kindly gave us a complimentary side of edamame as a thank you. 10/10 service and food!“
