Tokyo Sushi

Had Chirashi. Salmon was good. Salad dressing had too much ginger. Washroom door could not close. Biggest group they can accommodate is six. I don’t like how they hardly have anything in the sushi fridge at the bar

Normally I don’t check on Unilocal before eating somewhere new. Risky, I know, but I prefer my opinion to be unbiased to the fullest.
This is one of those times that I wish I had…
I stopped in on my way to Costco because I hadn’t seen it before. I am a sushi lover and love checking out new places in Markham. It was dead — not a single person there but me– and in hindsight, I get it.
I got the bento box with chicken teriyaki, steamed rice, 3 piece California and spicy salmon (I asked for all spicy salmon) 3 pieces salmon sushi and tempura, which consisted of one small shrimp and a few slivers of vegetable. It also came with the standard miso soup and salad.
Where to begin? The salad was terrible and incredibly small. We’re talking a mouthful here, a few pieces of lettuce, a chunk of cucumber and some stringed carrot covered in what I presume was teriyaki sauce. The miso was lukewarm and watery and probably the worst miso soup I’ve ever had. The stuff I make at home out of a bag tastes miles better.
Then the bento came. The chicken was tiny little chunks of white rubbery substance, mixed with a watery teriyaki sauce. Somehow it was cold, which is odd because it seemed like they just cooked it. I got a pea sized piece of wasabi and no ginger, which I had to ask for. The only redeeming part of the meal was the spicy salmon, which had a nice flavour and was made the way I liked it. The salmon sushi was average in every way.
It came up to $ 17.80 after a modest tip and was the single worst bento box I’ve had. I am a bit of a sentimentalist so I like to give small places a chance. But I honestly cannot beleive they are still in business with the really poor value they deliver for no small sum. I will never go here again. You’d honestly be better off getting a hot dog down the street at Costco for $ 1.50. Seriously.
I highly recommend avoiding this place, unless you have a streak of sadomasicism in you want want to support a tiny, unsatisfactory sushi place that is likely a money laundering front… it’s the only way I can understand how they are still in business.

AVOID! I got duped with the chicken teriyaki that came with miso and salad. Added shrimp tempura.
Salad was drizzled with KETCHUP! KETCHUP!
Miso soup did NOT have tofu in it! Barely any seaweed.
Teryaki was loaded with sugary sauce with next to NO chicken!
The shrimp tempura was just deep fried with white flour batter.
Paid 30 $ with tax nd tip.
AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO EXPERIENCE PROPER JAPANESE CUISINE!
I AM JUST THANKFUL FOR AVOIDING THE SUSHI AT THIS PLACE!

Ordered for delivery at 5PM arrived at 6:30PM, obviously the food was cold and when I stated it was really late, the delivery man simply replied «yea, okay.»
As for the food, it was even more horrendous, I ordered Yakidori, beef teriyaki dinner, soft shell crabs x2 and Yaki (yucky) udon. The Yakidori was bland in flavour, was slabbed with teriyaki sauce, no signs of grilling, the soft shell crabs were soggy and it had no dipping sauce. As for the beef teriyaki, it had nearly no beef, only a few slices here and there and the Yaki udon, was just sloppy and barely any seafood, chicken or vegetables.
Horrible food, horrible service. Do not eat here.

This place looks poorly maintained and unhygienic. The corners of all the floors are dirty with black stains and dust building up. The sushi tray we ordered was undeserving of a single star. The grains of rice were mushed together as if the chef did not know how to cook it properly. The fish used was not bad enough to make you sick but still very bad. When I went in there was nobody in there at all and after receiving my food i was not suprised that the appearance of the interior with its poorly kept and dirty appearance and faded sushi posters matched the food in texture, taste, mouth feel and appearance. If i would have known how bad this food was I would not set foot in here.

I’ve seen this restaurant located there for many years, so I figured if it lasted this long, the sushi must be at least decent.
It was overpriced for what I got. Ordered a sushi lunch special, the sushi was loaded with rice with a tiny piece of fish on top. The rice fell apart when I picked it up with the chopstick.
I could of just ate at Dragon Legend for the same price and get more selection and better quality food.

Nowadays with all the AYCE Japanese restaurants everywhere in GTA. It is not easy to run a Japanese a la carte restaurants if one does not provide fresh fish, good food and good services.
Tokyo Sushi is one of those a la carte restaurants in the area of at least 4 AYCE and I would have to say the quality of food is below par with some of the AYCE.
The restaurant is really quiet for lunch Only 3 tables including myself. There are seatings at the sushi bar and private room. The private room is quite cozy, seats around 4 people and offer a lot of privacy.
There are all day $ 8.95 combos that includes miso soup, a combination of rolls/​sushi/​teriyaki/​tempura. I decided on Combo D with the sushi and maki combination. I have to say the problem that the sushi/​maki did not taste good, is the rice! The rice was so overcooked. They are all mashy and stick together… it made the sushi tasted really heavy. I really did not enjoy them at all!
The service though is fast and friendly. There is that little bell in the room if you want their services.
BTW, the menus, they really need to wash them or something. they are so sticky! Oh so gross!
They accepts AMEX, Mastercard, Visa and Interact!
