Pretty bland sushi, felt like leftover scraps. Expected a great meal given these reviews but was disappointed- especially for the price we paid.

Food was far from great this time around here; chewey fish skin on a peace of sushi, tempura soaked in old smelling oil. This might have been good once, but it appears staff is different and so is the quality of the food.

Taste aside.. food presentation and the customer service by the front desk officer on Saturday Eve with busy customer traffic was truly outstanding.. as I am new to Sushi cuisine she helped in matching my preference and her portfolio of products. Don't know her name but if you read this comment do compliment her with your order..

Ive been going to Toshi for over 25 years when they used to be in shoppers world. The food has never let me down. Amazing quality, flavour, and prices. Sushi is always fresh and perfectly made! Their Yakiniku is the best ever- so much flavour with tender juicy beef. All their menu items from teriyaki to appetizers are THE BEST ever!

Food was great. Wide variety, and fresh. I only eat vegetarian sushi and I really enjoyed the yam roll. My son loved the ramen and everyone enjoyed the sushi rolls.

Had the beef and chicken teriyaki. I enjoyed the flavors of the sauce in the beef. Did not like the chicken. I think they had it out a bit too long before it was cooked. Ended up throwing away most of it. I would go back again in the distant future but would not get the chicken again.
