Dynamite Sushi in Toronto

Very good and fresh sushi and sushimi; generous amount of fish. Very reasonably priced. I will definitely eat there again. One downside - prep took a bit too long.

Service was VERY slow!!! We waited for 50 minutes just to get our miso soups. Otherwise, quality was OK.

Incredible food & value for $

Good food at great price, I recommend their lunch bentos

My neighborhood sushi place rocks best-tasting and budget-friendly fish in the area, made by hardworking people with actual taste buds.:)

Amazing food, with excellent prices. The service was 10/10!

Really fresh sushi. I loved the deep fried salmon with cream cheese and avocado. Very welcoming and sweet staff too :)

They allow dogs on the patio & brought out a water bowl for our pup. 1st time dining there. Went in with low expectations but was pleasantly surprised. Great quality food, very impressive selection. They offer omakase sample plate. Amazing service. We had a very polite, thoughtful & generous waitress. They brought my wife soup & salad on the house even though she didnt order a meal. The prices are really good. We had a really pleasant experience. Dont judge a book by its cover. A must try lowkey spot!

I have no idea why would anyone go anywhere but here to eat sushi, this place offers extremely fresh fish, everything tastes amazing and everyone is really nice. If you are going in more than 1 person, ask for a party tray, if you are going alone, I would really try their Omakase.

Great sushi, great value.

Best sushi place ever, always fresh, always delicious. Love that place

The wait time for order is long

It s been our number one Sushi place for the last year. Owners are extremely friendly and cheerful. Food is always fresh and delicious. No matter what you order, always fresh. Their latest menu add on Deep Fried Chicken is something to die for!!! We highly recommend this place.

I ordered 8 pieces of sushi and they didnt put cutlery or sauce

Lovely couple running this solid restaurant offering everything from rolls to sashimi, sushi, bento lunches and affordable (approx. $25-35) omakase (call in a day before).

Obsessed with the aburi. Great little spot with fantastic quality sushi. Food : 5/5

Great local sushi spot! Recommend this place to any one who enjoys sushi even if you like just the vegetarian ones.

Delicious sushi at a great price. Lovely service as well! We sat on the patio with our doggo and the server offered to bring her some water which was so thoughtful as I usually have to ask! :)

I don t usually write negative reviews but this was the worst spicy salmon roll I ve ever had. The texture was like a wet sponge and the flavour was oddly sweet but overly fishy at the same time. It almost smelled like fishy Frosted Flakes cereal. It was bizarre. A friend tried a bite and had a similar response. I decided to just toss it. I am by no means a picky eater and I hate to waste food but there was clearly something very wrong with it and I wasn t about to take a risk with raw seafood. The rest of the rolls were too heavy on the rice and lacking any noticeable flavour. Very bland. I ate those because I was hungry but for almost $40 I was expecting more. I wanted to like this place but I will not be returning. 2 stars because the server who cashed me out was really nice.

Waited over 2 hours for the food and didn t even receive a single apology. I tend to be understanding and I don t like to leave negative reviews, but this one definitely deserves one.

Everything is amazing

So good for the price.

Best sushi i ever had!

Wow! Everything was sooo fresh. I loved everything we tried. Great service, friendly staff. Great prices too! I deffinitely recommend this place

They were so nice! The fish was so fresh and delicious!!

Amazing food amazing prices and amazing serivce no complaints

I went with a friend today and each of us ordered 1 sushi roll. The order took 1 hour and 27 minutes to reach our table even when the restaurant was almost empty. They never checked upon us or offered any apology or explanation. On top of that, the washroom was filthy and we couldnt use it. That said, the food was delicious and the presentation was on point. Not worth it to go there but definitely to order takeout.

1. Extremely fresh good quality sushi 2. Atmosphere felt like I was chilling at home! Super relaxed and cozy 3. Prices are sooo reasonable, I d suggest carrying cash. 4. The sweetest server, such great service 5. Portions were large, no cheapness at all Will absolutely be back, we were so happy with this place.

This Dynamite little sushi spot has raised the bar for FRESH, ON TIME, and FRIENDLY! The Dynamite special with a couple of add ons is the perfect take out dinner for my husband and I on the nights we just can t answer what are we doing for dinner . Discounts too if you ask when you are picking up!

For years I ve had my out of neighbourhood favourites. I couldn t exactly find one in highpark I was as in love with. Until now! Great for people living around highpark as it s walking distance. Made my order over the phone before taking the dogs out and it was ready when arrived. I ordered dynamite special and gyoza. Total was 20$. The special came with a salad and soup. Everything was tasty and very fresh. Can t wait for the patio to reopen.

Amazing food and the staff is very friendly

Very good food and fantastic service really like this place.

Spicy tuna maki is the best!! .. both are genuinely nice people .. yea sometimes it does takes longer than expected but there s only ONE person making the sushi .. worth the wait! Just order ahead of time and you won t regret it. :)

Good but a couple of sushi were messed up

The best sushi in the city

An exceptional variety of fish and seafood. Fresh and unique along with good prices. The spring rolls were cooked to perfection. A real gem of a find!

Absolutely loved everything about this place! The prices were very affordable. Paid $10 for sushi, salad and a drink! The owners were extremely hospitable and kind. Definitely recommend!

Best sushi Ive had in a long time. Not that factory take out sushi where the rice is dry and the fish is fishy. Very high quality fish and at a reasonable price. Even the tempura was next level. Quality is comparable to high end downtown restaurants, definitely recommend

Really friendly service and extremely fresh and tasty sushi and food! Love this place!

Had an awesome time with the family here. Service was amazing, sushi was such high quality!

Cute little sushi place. The people running it are lovely, and the service was more than we could have asked for! The food is fresh, delicious, and more than fairly priced. Highly recommended! What a gem! Vegetarian options: Plentiful and sooo filling.

Fabulous place for eating in or taking out. Vegetarian options: Great vegan options Food : 5/5 |

Amazing food

Fresh, incredibly tasty sushi for a fantastic price. The staff is super friendly and the place is also very pretty, definitely reccomend it.

Serious case of Food Poisoning from this place on Jan 27, 2023 from the salmon shashimi. My daughter in law ended up in hospital overnight she got so ill. Your response: He is regular customer of ours and we know him very well. We have records of all our orders for Jan 27. That regular customer, the only 1 that bought Salmon Shasimi on Jan 27. That was my son! and he was a regular, until he brought home your food for him and his fiance and she ended up in hospital with serious food poisoning. The only thing she ate that he didnt, was the salmon shashimi. So instead of denial and refusal to take responsibility you ask us to take the post down on the basis of hurting small business. Poor quality control of your food is what will hurt your business.

Some of the best sushi Ive ever had. You can tell they put a lot of care into making the chefs choice combinations, a little different every time, and the quality and flavour always so good. Pretty good prices too!

I recently visited Dynamite Sushi and I have to say, I was blown away by the quality of their sushi. Their rolls were incredibly fresh and some of the best Ive ever had, all at a fraction of the cost of other sushi places in the area (including Kibo!). The atmosphere is low-key and unassuming, but the food speaks for itself. Im thrilled to have discovered this hidden gem and cant wait to go back. The quality and value are truly unbeatable in Toronto.

Delicious, very good service

I have to say, this sushi place is the best in the neighbourhood, hands down! The sushi is always fresh and tasty, the prices are very reasonable and the staff is super nice. It can get pretty busy, but thats just a testament to how great it is. Overall, I highly recommend checking it out!

For just $20 I got a very filling Poké bowl and avocado maki. Excellent service

Slow service but very polite and friendly. Great sushi , maki and lots of condiments. Tempura was fluffy . Cute plates too.

waited 20 minutes after being seated and never got tea, water, or even napkins/table settings. If theyre too busy doing uber eats orders to serve the customers in their restaurant maybe they should close dining and stick to takeout.

I am not sure if this was supposed to be a dining experience... If you are thinking of this place for a good meal, maybe think again and cook yourself something at home. This tiny restaurant is small for a reason, it seems. There were only about 5 tables and they couldnt even find enough time to attend to one of them. We arrived and for the first few minutes no one seemed to want to greet us. That was alright, we thought; maybe they didnt see us. We went to the counter to ask if we can sit down and were told that it will take 8 minutes. We looked around us. 3 tables were empty and still full of the left overs from diners that obviously left long before we arrived. We were hungry, we wanted Sushi and decided it might be ok to wait a bit. When we finally sat down we had to wait again for the menus, and since it was cold we asked to start off with some tea. We read the short menu that was so expensive I thought i was dining in the expensive centre of downtown. They had almost only spicy options which unfortunately I cannot eat. Thats ok. There was one option that seemed reasonable to my hungry self. We chose and closed the menus. 15 minutes later we were still waiting for our tea and for someone to decide they want to take our order. Now starving we decided to go home. As soon as we got up the server came to ask if we still want something and apologized in a tone that reminded me how little they care about their customers. We were not going to wait another hour to eat. We were there for over 20 minutes and did not see a single diner being served. Too bad... Guess we are not getting Sushi today.

I really liked the service!!! The only thing I would suggest is to have low sodium soy sauce. By the end of the day they were missing wasabi, but we tried their spicy mayo instead. Thanks for going far and beyond.

Small homely place with great food. We visited on a Monday so it was a tad bit slow but otherwise great service and sushi!

We like the prices and the quality. Definitely recommend

We love this place; Some of the best sushi on this side of the city..

This place is a hidden gem that offers great tasting, fresh sushi for a very reasonable price. However, if you re planning on getting takeout, you have order your sushi 5 years before you get hungry. Every time I call to place an order for pickup, the wait time is an hour, and when I m there to pick it up, I still have to wait an additional 5-10 minutes. The last time I ordered the exact same thing (on a Wednesday evening), I had to wait 1.5hrs before pickup. At this rate, I m gonna eat the paint off my walls and hope it tastes like sushi.

The restaurant was empty, only two other guys were there and it was just my mom and I, we waited over an hour for our food, and the rolls were so poorly made. I find it really hard to mess up an avocado maki, but ours was falling apart, not rolled correctly, and the taste of the rolls (avo, yam, and dynamite w/ onion) were mid at best. It seemed like the other table of two were waited on like VIP s, while our table was completely neglected and waiting over an hour for really sad rolls was not the dining experience I hoped for. Won t be returning. Find better sushi elsewhere, or better then this place- get some grocery store sushi.

Delicious, fairly priced, and amazing service

Very pleasent experience. Service is great, they try. Sat on the patio which is great watching sun set. Food was fairly priced and delicious. Giant platter for $17 of sushi covered with fried yam. I chose the Vegan option this time. I recommend this restaurant. 20 to 30 each with Sake and tea. Vegetarian options: Full vegan side menu, just ask, it wasnt on main Kid-friendliness: Friendly and perfect place for kids too. Let them shout on the patio lol.

Sushi is great, service was wonderful. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options Food : 5/5 |

Very good service. Great value. Lots of vegan options that were truly delicious. They had really cute plates and cups as well. Really enjoyed our experience here and we will be back! Vegetarian options: Really great vegan and vegetarian options.

So incredibly fresh!! Lovely atmosphere chefs are a delight always trust their recommends

Great food, fresh fish however the service was pretty slow. Dietary restrictions: They were very caring after I mentioned about needing gluten-free items Food : 5/5 |

Amazing sushi for great value! Really cute family restaurant that puts their passion in their craft! Highly recommend if youre visiting in the area or for takeout.

Delicious sushi, chill vibes and great happy hour deals. Coming here for the past year and never disappointed. Hostess is super friendly too.

The food is great, poke bowl is filling and extremely tasty, hits every spot. The staff is also great! Vegetarian options: a whole page of options

Great food and extremely reasonable prices . Fabulous and friendly service . Highly recommended.

Great little spot, good value

Loved it! Staff were super friendly and generous, food was fantastic. First time trying scorched salmon

Great and affordable prices. The owners are incredibly sweet!

Vegetarian options: Plenty of veggie options Food

One of the best sushi place in the town. Fresh sushi and nice service. Price is very reasonable.

Would totally recommend big serving sizes for a cheap price. I come here all the time

This place is a hidden gem! I was initially drawn in when I saw that they were selling an 8-piece California roll for only $3.95! What a steal, especially in Toronto! The service was impeccable and our server (who I believe is the owner) was so sweet and accommodating. I would definitely recommend you check this place out :) Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan menu available

Waited an hour and 15 minutes for my one sushi combo (this is the second time that this has happened to me and my friend) 40 minutes after I ordered my food our server told us that they actually can t make my order and suggested that I should order something else??? Very disappointed with the long wait times and I will not be returning in the future.

A hidden gem! Everything tasted so fresh, the service is top-notch, and its very affordable. This is our new regular sushi spot.

Went during their first week open and had such a lovely experience. Tasty sushi, kind owners, and a great experience. Looking forward to visiting again!

New spot, hence not many reviews yet. The owner was our server and she told us that they ve been open just about 2 weeks now. They have a limited time menu with some really good prices. The sushi was top notch. It seems their liquor license is being processed, so will definitely be paying them another visit.

Just opened a couple of weeks ago. Delicious suchi and friendly staff. Nice prices

Absolutely loved everything about this place! The staff was very friendly and the service was amazing. The presentation of the food was beautiful and it tasted even better!

The owners are extremely friendly, provided free tea since my takeout took longer than planned and offer a very good menu for price vs quality. Id recommend that place!

So great to have a new, stellar sushi place in the neighbourhood. They are still getting things set up (no phone yet) but have nice indoor/outdoor dining set up. I have ordered takeaway twice now and it has been very good. I definitely recommend the spicy tuna. The owners are very friendly and seem happy that they are busy!

While Dynamite Sushi was preparing to open last month I couldn t help but notice that their sign appeared to be an homage to the cover of BTS song Dynamite I came by today for the first time to try the salmon aburi dynamite sushi (8 pieces) from their limited time menu (ends May 31st!). To my surprise, the order came with salad and miso soup. The total price was $13.50 which is a great deal! You can also get 10% off if you pay with cash. The woman working there also recommended this order because the salmon had just come in so I was happy to try. While waiting for my order the staff also offered me water which was kind given the heat today. For now their only drink selections are pop so hopefully they expand. As for the sushi it was torched to perfection and with the sauces layered on top of the salmon + well seasoned rice each bite melted in my mouth. The salad and miso soup were standard so no qualms there. The location makes it the perfect place to take in the cool evening breeze or get takeout and enjoy their sushi in High Park. Overall I d highly recommend this spot for sushi in the west end ^^ Note: There is an error on the menu. The aburi order comes with 8 pieces and not 9 but the helpful staff pointed it out before I ordered.

Recently opened, hence the few reviews. The owners are very friendly and attentive; we got the aburi (torched) sushi which tasted great. My only feedback would be for them to increase the portion sizes (a little on the small side). Good addition to the neighbourhood.

We decided to try this new sushi restaurant and are very impressed. Fish was delicious and very fresh. Great menu and very friendly staff. I will definitely be back again and recommend to friends.

Rolls fall apart when you are eating them and the tempura sauce tastes weird - like it was frozen or something. On a positive note - the fish in the rolls tastes fresh.

Yum!

Was just looking for something quick and I stumbled upon this place andddd I was amazed by the service here! Sushi was deliciousss at such a competitive price, ANDDD they even offer dessert for free at the end

Amazingly fresh sushi - so delicately flavoured and very well prepared. Kind service as well!

Food took over an hour and a half . I m doing takeout -_-

Tried this place out, happy to add this place to the neighbourhood. Owners are friendly and warm. Very cool they offer Omakase style, will be back. All the Fish tasted very fresh and was delicious , yellow tail was excellent. Would have preferred a better homemade wasabi, but for the price point this place gives you plenty of value and is very good. Lots of open air and good sized patio in front. Will be somewhere I go regularly going forward.

Possibly the best sushi in the city. Superb quality and a great dining experience!

Had the pleasure of dining in at Dynamite sushi, the service is superb and very child friendly. I will definitely be making a return and I hope to see a larger menu in the upcoming months.

Nice people, good food, helpful

This is the third time I ve tried Dynamite Sushi. The service has been friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. They have a nice little patio out front if you re looking for a summer sushi spot. Happy to have them in the neighbourhood!

I would give 0 stars. We been waiting 1hr for the sushi and they told me I need to wait 20 more mins. Nobody give us the menu. I believe they should told me I have to wait more than 1hr when I make the order, totally waste my time.

The most authentic Japanese restaurant in the city. Highly recommend Omakase (Chefs choice). They focus on the food quality and hospitality rather than cheesy decorating of the place. Only wise customers would enjoy and appreciate this restaurant.

Great and very fresh and tasty sushi. Great new neighborhood gem!. Excellent service for eat in dining.

What an amazing and cute place. The service is fantastic. The food is super fresh and sashimi melted in my mouth. Will go back!

The best sushi in the area! Made with good ingredients. Nice service

Great taste, phenomenal value!!! We ordered one of the combos - the sushi was fresh, miso soup was delicious and the cost was superb. Our new go-to sushi spot.

Good service, good prices, good sushi in a local setting!

Excellent place, the owner is very kind and the sushi is awesome, 100 % recommended!!

Perfectly made and delicious. A bit slow but worth for waiting

Cool little place with inexpensive and tasty sushi. It s mostly all sushi on the menu so you have tons of choices. If you like sushi or maki then this place is a must-visit. The price is super reasonable and the food is also so good! The service is very friendly. It s a small restaurant but they have patio seating so it s perfect for the summer months.

Must have been an off-day when we went but they were very understaffed. The service was poor and there were a few issues with the food. Wish they told us before we ordered that the wait would be so long (almost 1.5 hours)

The Sushi is very fresh and delicious! Had the Dynamite special. Great service.

This place is amazing!! Very friendly staff and the sushi was super amazing! Super recommend, definitely revisit soon!

Lovely staff and great value, nice touches!

This place offers amazing sushi for a great price. We have ordered from them countless of times and is always reliable with quality, price, and service. Highly recommend!

Just ordered takeaway for the first time spicy salmon and yam roll. The order wasn t quite ready when I arrived so the owners invited me to sit and enjoy some tea while I waited. Sushi was fresh and delicious! Particular shout out to the spicy salmon. Can t wait to try more off the menu! Great addition to the neighbourhood!

The food is amazing and prices are more than reasonable. The chef always selects amazing assortment for the DS6 that I order and the service is always impeccable. Thank you for the yummy food!

The best sushi Ive ever tried in my life!!!! The sushi was very fresh and incredible taste. Amazing service, amazing food, amazing price, the ambiance of the place was so nice, it feels so cozy and homey, I loved my experience there and would go back a million times. Highly recommend

Our first time here and we were so impressed! Great tasting sushi, VERY reasonable prices and nice service.

Great sushi, fair price, and excellent service

such an amazing place! great food, excellent service, vegan menu and welcoming atmosphere. 10/10, highly recommend!
