Ni Ji Sushi Japanese Restaurant in Toronto

Great sushi. Takeout platters best in Scarborough.

We always order Bento Box #4 which is the bbq eel rice with 6 sushi, salmon shashimi, glass noodles, green salad and miso soup The experience is always top notch no matter how busy they are the quality of service and food never went down. Highly recommended

Good sushi with reasonable price

Amazing sushi with decent prices! Service was great and loved how cozy the place felt ~ will definitely be back!

Always nice food and good service.

Very good food

Good food. Great service and good price

This was really shocking to have that racist experience from a Japanese restaurant. The server was so much judgemental and pointing on my nationality!! But the manager came across the situation and tried to control the situation acknowledging that this was her last day of work. I never had that experience for the last decade in Toronto. Very unfortunate

Service was very good and the food was tasty. Some sushi rolls were a bit more in cost than other places I ve eaten but it was a great experience overall. I would definitely go back again. Vegetarian options: They have a pretty decent vegetarian menu.

Delicious and fresh plus friendly.

Delicious sushi!

Double spicy salmon was huge ass sushi. BOTH orders yuuuum ...I asked for 3 sodas and they gave one. Heavy handed on da horseradish.... Vegetarian options: Yo Dem cucumber sushi avocado sushi tofuuu

High price, average food quality and poor ambience.

I have been going to this restaurant for 20 years and it never disappoints. I love bulgogi and Japchae, and Niji delivers full flavors on these two dishes. The soups, sushi, sashimi, and love boat meals are really good, too. Check it out along with my pics. Parking: Small parking lot.

They have a good selection and prices are reasonable. Service was good and waitresses were very attentive to our needs.

Great for lunch on a weekday. Lunch specials provide great value. Attentive service.

The food was very good as usual and the server was attentive and responsive. Parking: Parking is limited Food : 5/5 |

Used to live nearby and go here frequently...got takeout yesterday hoping it was still as good as it used to be, and it didnt disappoint.

Favourite sushi spot in Scarborough. Love their lunch menu and quite affordable too.

Decent sushi place tbh. Had a reservation, went in at 5, quite a lot of people but our reserved seating space was nicely set up for us. Ordered the maki combo B I think. Forgot the name lol, but it was good! The free appetizers were a nice surprice, I really liked the congee and salad. The miso soup was rather salty though. Overall nice place to go to with friends when craving sushi.

Cute little spot with delicious sushi and various menu options using very fresh ingredients!

Food: had chirashi, which wasnt that good or bad. The fish was fesh, but the selection could have been better. The rolls, are a bit slimmer than normal and werent that special. Had the mackel main and that was 2 whole fish, which was pretty good. They gave congee as part of meal combo, which is very different. Service: was good service overall, not great, bit good. Atmosphere: looked clean and what not, but not a big place. Overall: good sushi restaurant overall and would come again, but theres definitely are better locations near by too.

Kind staff. Good food and the service was super quick!

It was lunch time and it was very busy. It is not a large establishment with limited parking

Literally my go to and my favorite. Delicious food, fresh fish, kind staff.

Jenna is an Amazing server and the food was fresh/delicious!!!!! Definitely coming back Lunch special is a BONUS !!!! 1130-3p Food

I loved my experience here I would absolutely come again it is so worth it!!! Very friendly staff amazing costumer service and the ambiance is very calm and comfortable and welcoming. The food was just amazing the quality fresh I ve had sushi in some places and it had a smell but this sushi was just perfect. We got some miso soup very amazing as well. Just love this place it s definitely a go to now can t wait to come again!!!

Mid place, I dont know the etiquette, do I come sit 5 seconds later leave. No chill at all. Pressure to order, pressure to leave. Damn

Reliably great!

Exceptional sushi experience in 2024. We ll be back!

Excellent food, great food, staff are very friendly and the owner is awesome they treat you like a family. Great atmosphere to eat.

One of my favorite japanese restaurants in scarborough. Prices are just right. Service portions are big.

I always enjoy coming here to eat. Cozy feel with lots of seating. It does get busy in the evenings and weekends, and during lunch when they have their specials. Parking: There are a good number of parking spots, but it may be a bit challenging if you come at a busy time.

First off Im not a sushi/sashimi person. But first time to this place and was very impressed with the service and food. I had a bento box and was blown away with the simplicity of the food placement and food itself. I will be coming back again when time permits and Im in the area. Thank you for an excellent experience.

Very nice place and very economical lunch special. Very attentive servers and service is excellent. Many choices on the menu and food is delicious.

Sushi was fresh and the staff were very friendly.

Had a pleasant experience. Great variety on the menu. The sushi and rolls were fresh and delicious. Fast and friendly service despite the place being full.

My favourite sushi in Scarborough! I can t find sashimi more fresh elsewhere, there is a mix of extremely well done Korean food in the menu selection as well! Every time I crave sushi this is the place I come to extremely affordable as well! Side note- their bulgolgi is delicious!!

Excellent meal. Nicely presented. Fresh. Service was excellent. I dont think youll be disappointed. Parking: Not many spots. Small lot. Kid-friendliness: Sure. Wheelchair accessibility: Not.

My favourite japanese restaurant in scarborough. Have had many of their dishes both at lunch and dinner. Service is very efficient and quick every time. Although I manage to find parking every time their parking lot is shared and very small so keep that in mind. Parking: Free parking but parking lot is small and shared with other businesses

Food is nothing special, flavours and seasoning was very basic or even subpar compared to other places. Too much sugar in the teriyaki sauce. Worst part of the meal experience was the service. Did not feel very welcome at all, server kept on rushing us (a party of 3) like they wanted us to get out. Came and took our cutlery and plates and bowls before we even finished the dish. This happened to all three of us throughout the meal. Really ridiculous how she hovered over the table and literally took my bento box from under me when I still had food in it. Never coming back, servers need to be trained better in customer service.

The best Japanese restaurant in Ontario. No one else comes close.

Best sushi pizza and rolls

Amazing place! Sushi taste really good

I enjoyed my experience here. The food was fresh and was good quality. You get a generous portion for a good price. The staff were friendly. Highly recommend!

One of the best sushi restaurants in the city. Great options and service. We had a great time. Vegetarian options: Free parking, veggie options available including bento box with vegetarian tempura and sushi Parking: Free parking available

The food I received doesnt match the photo(its totally different thing)and they refuse to refund

Seaweed was soggy and chewy. Sashimi platter (30$) was mediocre at best, tuna was stringy and chewy. Had a strong and pungent taste. Otherwise, customer service was nice.

Not the best service for take out during weekends. Took over an hour for take out to be ready as they seemed to have forgotten the order or prioritize order delivery drivers over consistent direct customers. Need to manage the take out deliveries more efficiently no matter how busy it gets. Sushi is well-made and high quality but neglectful service has dampened my experience somewhat. UPDATE: Better to order take out during the weekdays where it is not as crowded with customers who want to dine in and take out. Sushi is still some of the best in Scarborough. They use quality ingredients and dont rely on gimmicks to sell their food! Keep up the good work!

Dined in when they first opened and stayed a loyal customer because the food was fantastic. The quality of the sushi recently has gone down and on several occasions the sushi which I ve ordered smelled.

Love their bento and my husband loves their ramen

The food was very affordable and 4/5. To points for quality but the flavouring could be a touch better

Rude restaurant they said they can let me inside to wait for my door to be ready what kind of restaurant is that.

Last minute pickup for a birthday dinner at 9:00, NO PROBLEM. Last minute, but FIRST RATE food. It was Awesome from miso to sashimi to Bento box. Love them!!!

The service here is friendly and home-like. This place is cozy and is perfect for occasions like dates, family gatherings, celebrations etc. Their lunch menu 15-20$ / person but dinner will be ~25-35 per person. It is a little pricy compared to lower end sushi restaurants but the quality here suits the price. They always provide appetizers such as miso soup, congee and a salad to start off with. Something about this place is that it never changed and I have been going here for my birthday/ special occasions with my family since I was 4, so it has a very nostalgic and family-like atmosphere. Love!

Great cuts of sashimi. I wanted to try the Toro but I was too full from all the sashimi we ate

The sushi and sashimi here is fantastic. Great price and the fish is fresh and big pieces of sashimi. The staff is wonderful too. The Katsu wasnt fantastic tho. Was a bit dry and lacked flavor. The salad and soup was great. I would definately recommend and come here again for the sushi and sashimi.

Amazing combo and quick service. Thank you!

Very busy shop. Food was excellent. Had the Bento box combo with dumplings and calamari as starters. It also came with miso soup and a crispy lettuce salad. Tea was also served

We ordered 4 sushi and got 5 Parking: Small lot Food : 4/5 |

Great food price is reasonable..$40.

The best sushi place ever. Been coming here for a few years. The service is phenomenal and always consistent. The place is small and cozy and that means you always have staff checking in to make sure you re taken care of.

Always great service. Food is awesome.

family s go-to sushi spot for years. nice interior and fresh sushi. gets busy so make sure to reserve if you re bringing a big group!

Lunch pricing is very reasonable, what a pleasant surprise. The service was excellent, and the bento boxes are good.

I love Niji! It s not just the sushi, but the customer service always keeps me coming back. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try good quality sushi.

The sashimi is just average quality, salmon has a weird aftertaste for me so I couldnt eat anymore salmon after one bite lol. Among all the food in my bento box the best is tempura, sashimi and sushi is just not up to standard.

I have been coming here for over 20 years. Seen these folks come back from a fire, and covid. Absolutely hands down the best sushi. So fresh.. Wonderful portion sizes, and amazing customer service. Like everyone else, their prices have gone up.. But that is to be expected with the cost of everything these days. Thank you Niji for your fantastic food

Came by for lunch. They have awesome bento box specials. Very tasty and fast service.

Very accommodating for take out. We had asked for a salmon exclusive platter because we had some allergies to be aware of. They absolutely delivered and it was all very fresh.

High-quality sushi and high-quality service. The waiters and waitresses were all so attentive to us. Highly recommend if youre looking to experience quality dining experience Ps: First time trying Japanese plum wine, and it was delicious

Likely one of the best in this part of Scarborough As usual in Scarborough its hard to believe you will find good food in the same nondescript plaza that may house a mechanics garage for example. But those in the know actually know this is one of the best places in Scarborough for Japanese. Maybe not the most refined but as a value proposition it cant be beaten. The Bento boxes are a good place to start. The sushi/sashimi boats are also excellent. Maybe the dishes I would personally stay away from are the Korean ones and the ramens. Keep up the good work!

Great quality sushi for a causal dinner.

There are lots of tasty vegetarian options. This time I had vegetable gyoza, edamame, japchae noodles, avocado maki rolls and green tea ice cream. It was pretty empty when we arrived (5 pm on a Friday) but it got pretty busy by 6. Theres parking in the plaza.

Food and service were great. Highly recommended.

I bought a beef fried rice they just packed half box. Its $20. I was feeling light box, not enough, I end up ordering other place

Nothing fancy. What Niji lacks in decor, it more than makes up for in food!

The portion have become ridiculous less. Just paid 20 dollars for chicken fried rice and half the container is full this is truly sad truly is

Very nice and friendly. Decent price excellent quality sushi .

Taste not very good at all. What has happened to real taste of sushi. I wouldnt spend another dollar at that place

Excellent food and service. We were really full and happy!

Great place! Highly recommended. Everything on the menu is enjoyable. Vegetarian options: Great vegetarian options. Highly recommended. Food : 5/5 |

Fresh sushi, and wonderful service! Prices were fair too.

Very good taste and good service. Japanese waitress and chefs Food

Good sushi, friendly service.

Food was so delicious! The serving was also very prompt. Did not have to wailt long to get the food on the table. Staffs were very welcoming and friendly!

I had the Bento box #4 with Eel for takeout. The restaurant is nice and feels very cozy. The staff were helpful and quick. As for the food, the Eel and the sushi were very good, but the rice was just okay. The rest of the items were average as well, like the noodles, miso soup, and the salad. The salmon sushi was pretty below average since it was very chewy, and they were very thick cuts. Considering that the Bento was $30, it would be better to just buy the sushi or the Eel next time individually as they are the standout items. Parking: Plaza parking

Delicious sushi. I wanted to go there again

Passing by often this restaurant and being around seems very long time. One visit a few years ago busy but very crowded inside. Food was good and price also very reasonable. This time I feel the food and prices are much more competitive than before the pandemic as other restaurants raise prices way too much than this one, they deserve 5 rating.

Dependable quality food that we always enjoy.

Great lunch sets. So glad they are open again for dine in we eat here once a week and occasionally order platters in the evening to go. *update: the last 2 times I have been there, the food is ok but sized smaller but prices higher (rice and chap chae) and some changes to the terriyaki..meat is bland coloured boiled ? Its weird but tastes ok.

I ve been a fairly regular customer at Ni ji Sushi and have nothing but great experiences everytime I m there. Their sushi rolls are always fresh, and they have a wide selection of other dishes that I enjoy from time to time to take out (love the Japchae). They have great lunch specials and my go to in particular when I m there are their bento boxes. I tend to switch among them everytime I m there and it s a great way to taste the many different offerings that they have aside from just sushi. I think what stands out above their great food however is the top notch customer service and atmosphere that you get when dining in. It s a smallar place, but you get a very warm vibe inside and the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food comes very quick and the servers are always there to provide you with whatever you need. There are nothing but smiles everytime I walk in from the staff and the overall atmosphere makes me want to return whenever I m unsure what to have for dinner. I will always have Ni Ji as my local go to sushi spot because of that.

Ive eaten here several times and the food is always consistently good and the service is great. During busy times there can be quite a long wait!

Very fresh sashimi. Very good prices. Very good service. Food : 5/5

The Vegetarian Bento Box was delicious. The tempura was light and tasty. The Inari Sushi was my favourite. Lots of food for a decent price. The service was friendly as well.

The sushi is always very fresh and service is excellent. Portions are a good size.

The staff here are amazing as well as the food, the whole setup and space of the restaurant was great! And congratulations to Jangwoo Lee to getting a food handler certification!!! Idk if that s old or new though.

Comfortable restaurant and friendly staff always filling up your cup of tea. 17pcs sashimi ($23.00) is average size (4 varieties). Bento box Tempura also come with chicken teriyaki ($23.00). The chicken is served boiled not grilled, therefore, plain and bland. The rice is definitely not of the Japanese sushi variety but ordinary Jasmine rice. They do not stick together and drop off easily when picked up on chopsticks. Batter on the Tempura is also cracky and not flaky.

On the last day of 2023, I ate sushi that was extremely insincere. There are 50 pieces of fish sushi rolls in a small three-piece box, which contains only four types of fish. The food is very ordinary, a little different from the picture, there is no salmon belly, and it is not worth $60.

The food was great! The only thing I hated about our experience was the tip. I opted to not to give a tip coz our bill was kinda high already so after paying our bill this woman asked oh, no tip? Then I said uhh yeah (it was kinda awkward tbh) as if she s forcing me to give a tip and then another woman came and asked me if there s something wrong about the food or their services and then I get it! It s because I didn t give them a tip! And that s the time the atmosphere changed I really felt they hated us for not giving a tip. They didn t even say anything when I said thank you and left unlike when we arrived they were hospitable. Tip shouldn t be forced!! Petty people.

The food is delicious, and there is excellent service.

MY FAVOURITE sushi in all of toronto! This is my go to spot and it never disappoints! I always get the spicy tuna , spicy kani, and spicy california rolls theyre SO SO GOOD. The service is always quick and friendly as well!

Go-to sushi place in Scarborough for a quick lunch, dinner out, or a great sushi party tray. Consistent good quality food, great service, value for money. 5 stars!

For real a hidden gem in the area. You get SO much tempura and the sushi is great too. I love coming back to this place.

I ordered takeout from this place. Sushi smells very pungent and rancid. texture was slimy and it felt like it was defrosted a few minutes ago. Highly recommend you do not order from this place unless you want food poisoning

I have been to this restaurant at least 5 years ago. If my memory serves me right, the food was average for the price. This time I placed my order through google and I can say it has been improve a lot. The Maki roll are fresh and sushi rice are just right amount of vinegar and stickiness. The fish meat on the sushi is well presented and pretty fresh for the pricing. Good combination of tuna and salmon would make this combo worth the price. I would recommend if someone like a quick take out for the dinner.

1st visit nov 2023 Great meal 2nd visit jan 2024 this place is criminally underrated. Awesome food just great. Staff are so sweet. Food : 5/5 |

Hand down the best sushi restaurant in Scarborough. Not only is the quality and quantity great, but the service is above and beyond. A last second condition was added in due to a friend with celiac disease, and they thoroughly cleaned the equipment for the order to avoid cross contamination and provided gluten-free soy sauce. The only downside to this restaurant is that it gets filled too quickly :) Personal recommendation: chirashi bowl Dietary restrictions: Celiac disease

Great food, an amazing atmosphere and a very friendly and attentive staff. Ive been coming here for over a decade and cant get enough. Its my favorite sushi spot in the city!!

First time here. The food was good and fresh. The staff were attentive and let you relax and enjoy your meal without being rushed out. Will definitely be going back.

Service is phenomenal- on point & attentive Food is ok - rice needs more seasoning, most sashimi were sinewy / had odd cuts, tempura well fried & stayed crisp, maki should be rolled tighter Price is ok decent for the portion size Would return if in the area but wouldn t go out of my way

Always great service and food

While a tad crowded, the food is excellent and service very good.

Always so fresh and friendly. Great selection. Very nice and consistently delicious food.

Been going here for many years. I love their sushi s. I ve eaten at many sushi restaurants through my life time. In terms of location, tastes, quality, price etc This place is the best of all qualities. I always order the miso soup plus dynamite rolls. They also have a nice cream cheese rolls.

Food is not tasty as expected! And sushi is just ok

Excellent food and service.

Super friendly staff and very clean and nice place. The sushi was amazing. Loved it and will for sure be back. Food : 5/5

Loved the food

Its always a great experience here at Ni Ji Sushi. Great service and delicious food.

Food was nice and their service was amazing. The only room of improvement that I felt was the atmosphere could be a little more better. Vegetarian options: They have lot of vegetarian options too

Gone in there for a special occasion. What can I say? The people with me are satisfied and happy. I personally have tasted better Japanese sushi/food but Ive traveled to Japan. Take that as you will. Definitely hits the typical north American expectations for such a place tho. The service is definitely the highlight of the place. Kept on clockwork with consideration of our partys pace. Dont know if it is the typical service or not but I am highly satisfied with the service rendered. Overall, a nice place to try Japanese Food that suits the pallet and expectations of the typical north American. Just dont expect cheap sushi and what not.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Would give more stars if possible. Especially the customer service. Top notch, our new go to space for sushi!!!

Amazing place to go for Japanese food! The portions are very filling and a good bang for your buck. The staff is also very nice and attentive, even in the most hectic days. Highly recommended!

We visit this restaurant regularly for their bibimbap. It is freshly made, it is full of vegetables and our choice of meat served in a hot iron bowl. It is delicious and filling. Good service, pleasant staff and nice environment. Parking: Parking available on lot, however there is another restaurant beside it so parking can be limited sometimes. Kid-friendliness: Family friendly.

Good fresh sushi and a reasonable price. They are busy which is a good sign.

Great sushi. Very fast service. Clean and great staff. Fish is so fresh.

Great lunch specials. Food is fresh, salmon had roll is delicious. Quick service. Decent prices.

Big portion, taste fresh and delicious. A bit pricey but just about right for the food quality

Food is decent. Rice needs more seasoning, which would also help it not to fall off from the Maki. Sashimi not uniformly cut either; some came as chunks. The sushi itself could use a bit more rice, i think. Wasabi doesnt hit hard either.

my go to place! can t be beat with the quality of food and good pricing. good vibes for date night and family as well

Service is very friendly and prompt. The food is pretty good as well, but nothing special - 7/10.

Nothing bad to say about my experience at NiJi Sushi. The food was all fresh and very tasty. The Bulgogi meat dish was very tender and delicious. As tender as eating a brisket! The service was very good and their pricing was very reasonable. Ill be back!

This is by far one of the best sushi places for the price. I would take this place over an AYCE place any day.

Love this place! My family and I used to come here back around 2009 or so, and I recently ordered from here and the food is still great!

Very nice and friendly staff. Clean place.

Came two times for dinners. Both week night and weekend. Food quality are stable for both times. 5 stars for the quality of food and service with respect to the pricing.

Great restaurant!

I have been ordering here since 2018/ 2019. I use to come with my brother here all the time! this is a hidden gem and a special place to me since the sushi quality is amazing and fresh, and Ive also had the opportunity to create amazing memories with my loved ones :) . I love sushi, and ive tried many different places, so its fair to say there quality has remained the same since 2018, and theyve maintained it pretty well. The customer service is very quick and the staff are very polite. Highly Recommend

Simple atmosphere but amazing food and good service. Lunch was a great value

The food never disappoints! We both had Bento boxes which came with miso soup, rice soup and salad. The tempura was crispy, the portions large and everything was fresh. The prices are still reasonable for what you receive. Service is always quick and efficient. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian rolls etc are offered Parking: Not a big lot attached to the restaurant but weve always found a spot with no problem Kid-friendliness: Families with young children dine here Wheelchair accessibility: All on one level

We ve been going for years. Good food and service.

Been here a few times. Good food. Decent price.

I would prefer a less toxic choice of fish.Their tiny side salads from conventional iceberg lettuce (I assume) is pointless to include. Usually the service is very good. This recent time I went, the staff give me less change back than she had stated. She also kept quoting a different amount. Quite bazaar. That looked intentional. As a consequence I withheld her tip.It may be going downhill sadly.

Had the beef bulgogi bento box. Comes with Japchae, rice, California rolls, salmon maki rolls, miso and more. Quality of food was great. Taste was on point. Would definitely come back to try other items from their menu. Parking: Not a lot of parking spots

Wow~!! This is the best restaurant. Neat food and clean store. Its the best place to spend time with family and lovers. Its so delicious that you have to wait in line to eat. I highly recommend the sushi and vegetable lunch specials. I fell in love with the salmon roll. It is so popular in the local area that people who have tried it once keep coming back. They provide the best service to local people in Korea, China, and Japan. ^^

The best restaurant in Toronto that I found by chance!! Thanks to the friendly owner, the whole family had a happy time throughout the meal^^ Delicious sushi made with aged raw fish! And the ribs were so delicious! Crispy fries! I feel like I have a lot to think about. ^^

Super quick service, staff are friendly and attentive, and food is always tasty.

Excellent Sushi

Small sushi location with fresh fish very attentive staff

Nice
