Great atmosphere, excellent service and delicious sushi. Best in the city!
First time at GYOKO sushi! On eclipse day. Service was great, while I was waiting for my Takeout. Lunch Beef teriyaki bento was super yummy and flavorful. The Danforth spicy sushi roll was freshly made and Delicious! Thank you so much for the great service and the food was very exquisite. I shall return next time.
Gyoko Sushi was truly an amazing and memorable experience. The food was fresh, delicious and very well portioned and the service was not only friendly, but attentive and efficient. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere and was the perfect spot for a cozy sushi night for a great price. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for sushi in the Danforth area and will come back again!
Absolutely loved dining at Gyoko Sushi! Fast and incredibly friendly service with a very welcoming and cozy atmosphere. An absolute gem of a place offering high quality sushi! Will definitely be coming back :)
Great place for a sushi fix. Service was amazing. Super friendly. Food came quick and it was super delicious. It wasn't that busy when we were there but they had a lot of take out orders. We sat by the window and their window was so clean that it didn't look like glass was even there. I would come back here again.
Very friendly staff and comfortable decor. The staff is friendly and attentive and my food was very nice. I started with agedashi tofu - the presentation was a little different than what I'm used to - I missed the bonito. The tofu was an excellent texture and nicely fried. My main course was spicy chicken and it was certainly spicy but not to the pointof not being able to taste my food. I'm happy to visited this restaurant and will definitely return soon.
I loved this cute little spot! Amazing service and even more amazing sushi! We loved everything we tried, gyoza and the rolls were so fresh and delicious. Our server was also so sweet and attentive to us. Would definitely eat here again!
Gyoko Sushi is a small, cozy place that we absolutely love for its proximity and fantastic service. Recently, we made a reservation for 10 people to celebrate my LA cousin's last day in town, and it did not disappoint. The service was excellent, as always. The staff was attentive and ensured our large group was well taken care of. The food was spot on, just like every other time we've visited. The sushi was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Gyoko Sushi continues to be a favorite for us, and this visit reinforced why we keep coming back. If you’re looking for great sushi with excellent service in a cozy setting, I highly recommend Gyoko Sushi. ‐------------------- I had an amazing experience at Gyoko Sushi. The food was truly outstanding and the service was friendly and attentive. The drinks were well-prepared and the atmosphere was pleasant. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great sushi experience.
The deep fried California roll is very good!!!!
One of the Best kept secrets on the east end. Well prepared, well presented in a cute environment.
Consistently good food and nice atmo if you want to eat in. Kid-friendliness: Lots of families here. Food : 5/5 |
This is the only resturant that I would give a consistant 5 stars to on every visit, been here many times. The resturant is cozy, service is amazing and the food is even better. The salad dressing is soo darn good. If they bottled it up and sold it, I would buy it. The sushi is always fresh and delicious. Most definitely the best Ive had in Toronto.
Ordered the Seafood Udon Soup. Upon delivery it was found that the soup container was only 2/3rd full , hardly any seafood and no noodles. For $22 dollars this was unacceptable. Restaurant refused to acknowledge their mistake.
Good food but expensive considering what you get... they could afford to be a bit more generous with the protein. Bought the Sushi Pizza + Chicken Teriyaki Dinner.
Food was fresh and tasted great. The service was wonderful. Intimate atmosphere.
Nice little place with good food and good service but a little pricey compared to other Japanese restos in the area. For example, they have a bento box on the lunch menu for $24 - a similar bento at Katsu is $18 and they are in the heart of Greek town (which is higher rent) and you can get it at dinner time. Gyoka has three dinner bentos available but I preferred the one on the lunch menu and they wouldn t let me order it because it s only available until 15:00 I don t get it as $24 is not lunchtime pricing. We had tempura, gyoza, spring rolls, and California rolls and they were all tasty and all arrived hot. The udon noodles with chicken was also good but even though they use dark meat which is less expensive, there is not much meat in the dish. I don t eat raw so I cannot comment on the sushi. They serve cans of coke (not Pepsi and not fountain) which is a plus for me. They have a few tables with umbrellas outside. Lots of street parking and two lots across the street (behind the Tim s and Coffee Time). Very short walk from Woodbine station.
Cozy place and delicious food. Its so worth it!
I ordered the Spicy Chicken today, and it was about 90% cabbage and 10% chicken. Still very tasty but I remember ordering it in the past and it was more like 50/50 chicken and cabbage. If its going to be mainly cabbage, the name of the dish should be Spicy Cabbage with Chicken! The other things we ordered were very good.
The service was amazing here! The employees were very nice and attentive. The food was brought to my table quickly and was delicious! I recommend the vegetable udon! The sushi rolls were solid as well! Great customer service and the inside of the restaurant is clean, organized and peaceful!
Good quality food!
Really like the tempura and sushi here. Very friendly and pleasant staff.
Great food at a reasonable price
Amazing meal and excellent service.
Owners & staff of GYOKO SUSHI are the best! They re so friendly & kind whenever I visit. I also do business for them & meemee is always so so nice to us! She s always giving me a free sample! #Danforthlove
Great atmosphere and food portions. The service was kind and offered me a miso soup on the house.
So good!! We ve been looking for a new local sushi place that is easy to order in after our other fav moved and the quality went down. After trying MULTIPLE places nearby we finally found the one. Always fresh tasting salmon, perfect rice texture, great miso soup, and good flavour. A staple easy simple sushi spot.
Fantastic sushi and fair prices
Theres no way this place has 4.5 stars... really deceiving. As someone who loves sushi, DONT waste your money coming here. Its so busy here but idk why the soy sauce is not even the real soy sauce it tastes like water... and the wasabi is just watered down as well... the fish is NOT fresh. It is not tasty here at all and its so expensive for monkey sushi quality food.....
I VE NEVER TRIED BETTER SUSHI! The food tastes great, the washrooms clean, and the people are nice! 100% recommend to anyone who hasn t had a good sushi experience before.
I have tried many sushi places in North America but I would say this is one of the best place I have ever tried, especially food and great customer service.
Amazing food with great staff and yummy side dishes.
This place is amazing!!! Have lots of variety on the menu to try from. Highly recommend this place if you are a sushi lover !!
Delicious food and amazing price. Very lovely sushi restaurant and very busy place too! Recommended dishes
Gyoko sushi is among my favourite sushi places in Toronto. Probably the best. A cozy and welcoming jewel in the east. We tried the Godzilla deep fried for the first time and boy that s a big roll of sushi. filling and tasty. Pretty darn good. Our all time favourite though, is the smoked salmon dragon roll. With cucumber, avocado and cream cheese. Miso soup and gyoza soups were a fantastic way to start the feast. Highly recommended.
Food is good but very chaotic when it gets busy.
Ive been there 3 times and is always great. I love the place, the food, the music and the staff.
Always terrific. Delicious and nicely presented. Gyoko is very clean and tidy but still warm and cozy on a cold night. Thank again. Our out-town-friends insist on Gyoko when they come to visit.
Absolutely amazing!! Your loss if you don t try it!!
My sister and I came here tonight for dinner and it is absolutely amazing! The sushi is very fresh and the pieces are big. The service is quick and the waiter was very friendly, it s a nice clean space and with simple decor. This will be our new sushi place! You can also park at the value village parking lot and walk 2 mins to get to the restaurant. Vegetarian options: They have a whole bunch of vegetarian options. Parking: Street parking or at value village (2 min walk) Kid-friendliness: We saw a small child in here they had high chairs available.
Amazing Staffs with a great service always. Food is always fresh and decent portion. Their spicy agedashi tofu is my goto and refreshing draft beer! Highly recommend on their hamachi sashimi, ika sushi and any rolls!
A neighbourhood gem. Small and comfortable inside with a nicely decorated interior. Great food at a reasonable price point and the service is always great. Havent had a bad experience yet out of about 10 visits.
Very cozy enviroment, the unagi roll is a delight. Excellent veggie options. Amazing Tempura. Will totally go back!
I visited for the first time yesterday and the sushi was so delicious My Japanese friend who went with me also said it was delicious I want to visit again
Large portions, tasty food. Our favorite sushi place in the East end!
sooo delicious and sweet waitress! I got the spideroll and it was amazing will come again
A good local sushi spot. I recommend going at lunch time for their specials.
Amazing loved everything we had. So very fresh. The staff was delightful and friendly. Would recommend this place.
So fresh and delicious. The gyoza and sushi pizza are amazing.
Perfect!!
Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing restaurant! Will be back regularly!
Quick and very friendly service. The chicken Katsu and chicken teriyaki were both delicious.
Terrible service. Asked to be seated at 9:02 for myself, and I was told, Sorry, the kitchen is closed. There were two other tables seated and their hours are till 9:30. Not the first time staff there seemed in an exceptional hurry to close. The sushi is mediocre anyway, so not a terrible lost that I wont be returning.
Will give 5 stars to lovely staff, clean restaurant and Great fast lunch service, but the food isnt brilliant...using FAR too much tempura as a filler...in EVERYTHING. I suspect to make dishes look bigger... along with using less fish/expensive ingredients. Just made the food super greasy
The best sushi in Toronto! I love the food, presentation, attitude and authenticity. Definitely recommend!
Good
Consistent, high quality Japanese.
Love the atmosphere but the sushi wasnt top tier in the city for me so gave it four stars as higher quality sushi exists (but also for a higher price). If you are looking for a mid level sushi joint that isnt breaking the bank, look no further. Also the interior vibes were on point.
Great place for take out or dine in. The staff are nice and the food is fresh.
Truly delicious sushi. The food was fresh and very good. This is my favorite sushi restaurant.
Great food and friendly staff
Highly recommend their Tempura and cooked sushi rolls , especially if you can t or don t like raw fish. Small restaurant with excellent N efficient service! Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options
Decent sushi and an attentative server. The sushi fish cuts were large relative to other places. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available.
Great. Love the staff, theyre so nic
Had really good sushi at this place, taste, texture, presentation, price, checks all boxes. Services is good too
Sashimi dinner set A was delicious and had great presentation. Service was friendly. They stopped the music part way through for a while then continued it later and the path to the washroom was bustling/ inconvenient which took away from the atmosphere. I m sure it was a one off, so I still recommend this place! Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair friendly.
Very cute inside. Service is consistently very friendly!! Food is always delicious and portions are sizeable. I am a regular!
Such a cute little spot, easy access from Woodbine station. Cute little patio, amazing food!
Great sushi selection and friendly staff.
Very cute sushi spot. Servers were really nice, quick and efficient. The food was fresh and portions were just right. It was also presented beautifully. Highly recommend when in the Danforth area
There is no respect for the client time. When you guys tell me to wait for 10 to 20 minutes to get my take out order, and its over 40 minutes, the order is not ready, while I see other people who came after and got thier food served, this is disrespectful, you guys ruined our evening. If you think the order will take 40 minutes or an hour, thats fine, but you should let your client know, dont just lock them in, you guys a restaurant.
Omg the sushi is DELICIOUS not to mention the staff and the place are amazing 10/10
Menu a little complicated. Music was loud I liked it but someone else maybe not so much. Staff friendly. Not as good as last time.
Gyoko is a must-try! We ordered for a large party and they did not disappoint. The sashimi is extremely fresh and signature maki rolls are unique and generous portion sizes. We will definitely order again.
Wonderful hospitality and delicious Japanese food especially green dragon and spider rolls !
I had a wonderful time and I loved the food.
I ve lived in the area for years and have walked by this place numerous times. Last week I finally decided to order takeout but was severely disappointed. I purchased the Spicy Scallop roll and Danforth roll, unfortunately both where not tasty. The scallop roll was seriously over priced, considering it barely had any scallop in it and was 95% filled with greasy tempura bits and a bit of spicy mayo. Also, upon walking into the restaurant the workers where standoffish and not welcoming. I won t be returning again.
Good food, good service, and above average atmosphere. Sashimi are fresh and the bed of rice is a little bit dry. I am not sure is just that day or my preference Background music was chopping with technical issue and it disturbs me for appetite. This restaurant are pack of people. You should try it. It is worth it with good price. One thumb up. I have tried Shshimi A, B and Charashi. Charashi is still my favourite dish.
Lovely spot, with lovely food. Got the stir fried udon noodles, and my partner got the Bento box. Both were delicious. Our server was also so sweet! Food
Delicious sushi, great atmosphere (especially in the summer), and friendly staff. I love this place.
We order for takeout, very happy about portion and quality
best dumplings , recommend Spicy Salmon roll ,amazing service.
Great sushi and service. Will definitely be back!
This place has a rustic cool izakaya vibe. Bento box was delicious and visually impressive. Service was polite and helpful. Owner is cheerful and kind, following up with helpful suggestions with their menu. Look forward to going back to indulge in Karage and Sake.
Incredible sushi, and very fast and friendly service!
Pleasantly surprised by this place! I ordered takeout off their high ratings and it didn t disappoint. Their spicy salmon roll was really good. I d go here again.
Our go-to neighbourhood sushi place for Friday takeout dinner. Artistic presentation and generous portions of sashimi. Weve had the bento boxes, chicken and beef teriyaki, sashimi platters and boats. Its all delicious and a solid win every time.
Quick and tasty!
The food is delicious and the staff have always been super friendly and accommodating every time I have gone. Nice ambience too. Really love this spot.
Great fresh sashimi and sushi with decent prices. Service was great and friendly. Because it is a small restaurant, the seating is close to each other but I guess you could opt out if it is too uncomfortable for you.
Very nice customer service.
Amazing
Small little restaurant on Danforth near Woodbine, fresh sushi, nice portions, great flavour. Had the spicy double double salmon roll and tempura veggies, it was excellent. Will go again.
Great sushi, probably one of the best ones I tried in Toronto. Large and fresh. I recommend Woodbine roll
The food is completely spectacular
Been twice now, both times I got silly and ordered something interesting. You d think that a spicy tuna sushi pizza (that s a tongue twister!!) would be a strange thing, but it was beautifully executed. They really care here :) I had lots of wasabi!!!hehe
Delicious sushi. Fast service. Yum! My eyes bulged out of my skull when the server brought over CHOCOLATES with the bill. She noticed and brought me MORE! What an Angel go here.
Great service, friendly staff, and excellent food. Highly recommend!
Amazing place. Great japanese food!
Small Sashimi, Sushi, Maki Party Tray - Cant decide what to eat? This platter is perfect for you. Sashimi was thick but melt in your mouth, sushi had a good ratio between fish and rice, and the rolls were comforting as well.
Do not order anything outside their sushi
Loved the food, the portion sizes are huge! Great service!!
Great selection of food, good prices and service.
Really good! The makis are varied and good.
Always great!
Very polite and superb service, Korean owned and operated. This establishment boasts a very traditional japanese style cuisine and umami that hit the right spot. If youre looking for authentic japanese and quality food, look no further. Absolutely one of the top 10 japanese cuisine restaurants in toronto.
love their soups
Overall alright, but the rice was slightly undercooked and a bit too dried. Sashimi was fresh. Wouldve been at least a 4 stars if the rice was done right.
So kind and delicious!
Pricey but good
A great place for Sushi and a few other Japanese food options. Moderately priced, one of the best sushis we have had so far. A favourite place for our family, if we happen to be in toronto ( we live in ottawa), Gyoko Sushi is on our list of places to drop by. Great ambience, small but cozy place, wonderful service.
Very yummy sushi. I got the sushi tempura lunch very delicious
Absolutely lovely restaurant. Maki tray for the family and it was perfect.
Amazing place, great staff, great service and the food is delicious!!!! 100% recommended!!
Very nice sushi in this restaurant and the staff was courteous and prompt.
Fairly standard sushi overall - not bad, but not amazing either (which is expected at this price point). The amount of fish in each piece of sushi was fairly generous, and the overall vibe/ambience inside was really nice. The server was very pleasant and didnt rush or constantly check-in on us. This is likely one of the better options for sushi at this price point and within this area of the city.
Very well options for the lunch. Recommended!
Good portions and fresh fish. I went for lunch for my birthday and it was great. Totally recommend the lunch menu!
Very cozy place with friendly staff and awesome meals
Great ambience and best Spicy Salmon Pizza I have ever had!!!!
Love it here
Had a good experience, food was good , staff was friendly! Great sushi place to come and enjoy sushi
the best sushi and the best service, we love going to the restaurant for the service, thank you very much for always having the best attitude Kid-friendliness: my 6-year-old daughter loves sushi, always fresh, it is the one she likes the most, she loves going because of how they treat her in the restaurant, she feels very good
Really delicious Asian food!
Good Sushi.
Nice atmosphere cozy and almost intimate. The sushi is what makes this place a hit. Food
Portion size is good for the price. Staff is friendly.
The seating area is confortable and well decorated. The food tastes really fresh and delicious. They have nice bento box and maki. The service was very pleasant. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a restaurant in the area.
Omg! Ourrrrrrrrr favorite!!
Good service and sushi
Nice people serve you delicious food with good price. Amazing combination!!
Overpriced and sushi tasted like it was very stale and no longer fresh.
Picked up take out for New Years Eve. Great service, great food. Will definitely be back!
Amazing food, Very friendly and fast service!
Great sushi. And good job with the precautions taken during covid!
Spectacular Sushi. Wonderfully pleasant staff.
Have been eating here for years. My go to Sushi place. Always fresh and great service. Be nice to be able dine again soon but takeout is great as well.
Great food, good selection, friendly staff. Portions are good for the price points. Maki set C is my recommendation
We ve been coming to Gyoko since it opened, and it is hands down the best sushi I ve had in Toronto. Cute cozy atmosphere, lovely friendly staff and delicious food across the board. It s a weekly staple for us and I love having such a great quality restaurant in the neighbourhood. I was worried when I saw a new sushi restaurant opening up on the same block, but having had both (the other resto also enjoyable) I can safely say Gyoko still comes in first place. Their spicy salmon is melt in your mouth good, dynamite roll is heaven and I love their lunch specials. Thanks for making this neighbourhood staple so enjoyable!
Lovely and always fresh sushi and equally tasty vegetarian options. Super friendly service and staff. I cant wait to dine in again.
Always fresh, tasty and great quality ingredients. Staff are all super friendly and efficient. I look forward to dining in again soon (hopefully). Their platters are also delish and generous for a group.
I work cross the street, always stuck in what should I have for lunch. Till now this is the only place I can keep going in the area!
Typically, for dinner, we always order Bento box for dinner. This place had no tempura/sushi..just protein, rice,soup salad..$52....not good value ! When I called to complain the argued with me. Bad customer service.
I ordered the salmon/tempura dinner and it was great. There was a mix up with the soup but when I called back they were very nice and gave us a complimentary order of spicy tuna rolls which were amazing. I will definitly be a repeat customer.
Grabbed some food last night, first time. Excellent! Selected their SD8 plate (Salmon Combo): generous portions of Sashimi and lovely rolls. Sold!! Highly recommend. Also staff really friendly. Going back this weekend :)
Food is fresh and affordable and they have a huge variety on their menu. Excellent, fast service and theyre open for lunch! Highly recommend. Very family friendly too.
Very mediocre sushi for this price range. Sizes of sushi rice were irregular, sourness of sushi overwhelms the taste of the fish, and the fish keeps falling apart. Not recommended, even loblaws sushi is better.
Gyoko is my favourite spot for sushi, hands down. The fish is always fresh and delicious. The staff and owners are very friendly and provide great service. The restaurant very clean and they follow Covid protocols perfectly. The decor is welcoming and relaxing. Im looking forward to being able to sit down and dine inside again when the pandemic is over.
1st time visit....Really disappointing. I might order an appetizer again because they are down the street but not leaving another gratuity. Already regretting it.
GYOKO SUSHI is my favorite restaurant and I visit constantly. The sushi here is very fresh and always maintains a delicious taste.
The rolls were comically huge and filled with filler rice, avocado and cucumber, they were too messy to eat and the fish across all dishes was not very fresh either. Will not be ordering from here again. What a waste of money.
very good sushi and the staff is nice.
I ve definitely been here too many times, but it s for good reason. Foods too tasty.
This is the best Shushi Restaurant I have been to. The service is wonderful and the food is so fresh and delicious. Thank you Gyoko Shushi for such a great experience.
Had a dinner with my friend last Tuesday. The food was fresh, properly prepared and a great value for the price. And just wanted to take a moment to compliment the service we had from server, Helena last Tuesday evening. She talked to us friendly and checked on our table several times even though it was super busy night!! Nice food and amazing service! Well be back definitely.
Food was great, dont recommend the house wine!
Great food and an artistic presentation make this a fabulous spot to enjoy life on the Danforth.
Ordered the small sashimi sushi maki platter just now and omg! I havent had a good quality platter in forever (we try new places all the time trying to find one) so I was pleasantly surprised when we decided to try Gyoko. Beautifully arranged, such a good assortment of flavors and best of all, so so fresh! Their nigiri is perfectly portioned, which is so rare (other places use wayy too much rice and not enough fish). We will 100% be returning here for our sushi cravings (which are frequent), cant recommend highly enough :)
Place is severely understaffed! One waitress had to serve 10 different tables, it was hard for her to keep up. We were all trying to be very understanding but having to be at a place for an hour too long wasnt ideal. Sashimi cuts were lukewarm, which gave them a hue of eggyness....
Not a fan of this sushi place, service isnt that great. Prices are okay.
We have ordered take out in the past and the food was great. We decided to dine in on a Tuesday night. I ordered some hot noodles, miso soup and tea, my wife ordered soup, tea and a couple of rolls. Shortly after the tea and soup were dropped off and a few minutes later my Yaki-udon noodles arrived. l tried to wait a few minutes for the rolls to show up but my wife insisted I eat before it got any colder. They were busy with take out and 15 minutes later my wifes meal was a no show. There were no table checks or even glances as we were looking to get someones attention. 19 minutes in we were finally able to get someones attention to remind them that she never got her food. They completely missed it. By the time her food came I was already done my meal for about 10 minutes..Through out the meal no one checked up on us. At the end we didnt get any compensation. Overall we will not be back and do not recommend for a dine in visit
Gyoko Sushi is my favourite neighbourhood restaurant and has the best sushi. Plus, the interior is beautiful and the service is quick and friendly.
Fresh sushi, in a comfortable setting! A really great east end joint with lots of options! Very kid friendly.
Our favourite sushi place. Outstanding food, friendly service. Have been doing takeout through the pandemic but glad to be able to return now.
So many sushi places in my neighourhood, but Gyoko is my favourite. Their sushi is the freshest, and the rice is always perfect. Love their vegetable sushi pizza!
Food is delicious and fresh, and service is prompt, warm, and friendly.
Great place for family and friends. Delicious food and great service
Great staff, good quality food, clean and cozy! The staff was also great with kids!
excellent sushi and wonderful staff...this place is a family favorite of ours.
My go-to for sushi on the Danforth! I love this place for their friendly service and yummy food!
The Salmon rolls are consistently good and the service is prompt and friendly. Our go to sushi place in Danforth Village area
Great local sushi joint, best one on the Danforth. The addition of Korean dishes gives a nice break if sushi is not your thing.
Best sushi in town. Nice ambiance and the owners are real nice people.
Excellent Sushi!
Great sushi spot. The restaurant atmosphere is warm, inviting/welcoming, and very enjoyable. The servers are always very friendly and amicable. The food is consistent and tastes great and fresh. I love the vibe of this restaurant, it is also so clean. Cleanest public washrooms I have ever used. Thank you Gyoko!
