Sushi 930

Ordered Sushi #8 and Sushi Tsuka for two people. Bill came to $ 50 and change. That would be pricey in a sit down place, but this was takeout from a hole-​in-​the-​wall. The food was fresh and the fish was pretty good, but I can get comparable quality from any number of other places for literally half the price and will do that in future. I won’t go back until they lower their prices.

Just popped in for lunch, ordered up combo 1, california roll/​avocado roll/​spicy salmon, (+ a salmon hand roll on the side). The first thing I noticed and really liked was the taste and texture of the rice. It wasn’t overly sweet and you can tell it was well made. The slices of fish were nice and chunky, fresh tasting as well.
Overall really satisfied with this spot considering the west end has so many poor options. Grab it to go or sit in their cozy spot (seats at most 6)!

Cute restaurant but unfortunately the food wasn’t all that great. When I first walked in there and saw the prices, I said to myself, «It must be super good here!» I went home with giddy expectation, alas, I am left with an empty plastic with disappointment on my taste buds.
I ordered the Maki Roll Set, which includes the California roll, spicy tuna roll, and spicy salmon roll. Or at least I think it was supposed to be spicy! It’s a subtle hint of spiciness, which I’m not impressed by. Nice and fresh ingredients, but nothing so special that I’d pay $ 18 again.
I’m a bit sad. I recently just moved to Toronto from Vancouver, and I’ve been craving for some sushi. The first sushi place is here, which left me wondering why, why is the price so expensive for this ordinary maki set. The miso soup was too bland, and makis just weren’t true to their price calling. I don’t mind paying more for extraordinary sushi, but this just wasn’t it.

Not a fan. Didn’t find the fish was of particularly good quality. Wasn’t inspired by the premises. Food was below average. Don’t get the fuss. Much rather go to Raaw in Liberty Village.

Excellent sushi in the area. The place is somewhat difficult to find as the sign is not too noticeable. It’s quite small as many patrons come to pickup takeout instead of eating inside. There are tables to seat 6 to 8 tightly in the establishment.
We were lucky to fit and were kindly greeted with Japanese hospitality. Our first order was the small combo that had a variety of rolls add well as nigiri. I have tried other places but was pleasantly surprised. The prices are more expensive than my usual North Ktown establishments but given that it’s downtown, it is reasonable for the area.
Quality is nice and fresh plus the dragon roll was especially good. I would definitely come here for takeout but I think I saw a sign that they delivered. We stayed slightly later than their closing time and were not rushed. This is now my go to sushi place in the area.

I’m going to have to agree with the 2 and 3 star reviews on here.
I wasn’t impressed at all with this place, nor was I impressed with the food. I usually consider sushi as «food made by Japanese wizards», but this time it just felt thrown together for how long I waited.
The order took over 20 mins to prepare for 2 maki sets, which were priced considerably HIGHER than some of the best spots in the area (Raaw or Koja, for instance).
To be fair, the vegetarian maki set was actually really well done with the flayed avocado on the top and the lettuce bed of garnish, but the salmon/​tuna maki set looked like they just threw it into the styrofoam container in a big damned hurry… Additionally, they were the POOREST CUTS of fish I have tasted in a sushi dish to date… Boo.
Your safest bet is to take a 15-​minute stroll over to one of the 3 other sushi gems in Liberty Village instead (From high-​to-​low: Raaw, Koja, InJapan) and get your fix there. It’s cheaper, and miles beyond what you’ll be left with here…

It’s kind of in the middle of nowhere and super tiny as its a takeout spot, but it’s some of the best sushi I’ve had in downtown Toronto. It’s run by a Japanese owner who is friendly and he gave me some complimentary sushi to go with the rest of my order.

My favorite place to grab sushi and sashimi take out in the neighborhood. I live in Liberty Village. Fish is fresh and good quality. Staff are friendly and service is great.

Top-​quality sushi. I don’t eat there as much as I would like to because it’s a like pricey, but totally worth it. The scallop sushi just melts in your mouth…

Simple, no frills shop with fantastic sashimi. Service is quick and friendly. Slightly unusual hours, so I sometimes call ahead to make sure they’re open. Great for takeout and parties.

We’ve been visiting Sushi 930 every week for the past year. They always have fresh tasty sushi and is a bargain for the quality. Still, be prepared to pay a little more than average for a treat.
I recommend Sushi #8, Sashimi Sakura, or custom order.

The first thing I have to say about this place is «pricey». For a hole-​in-​the-​wall, take out joint, they sure do know how to over price their food.
Had their small party platter that came with tuna, salmon, shrimp and crab Inari (2pcs each), spicy salmon roll, California roll, shrimp tempura roll, avocado roll and cucumber roll for a total of 40 pieces that was $ 48. The quality of the fish wasn’t bad but wasn’t spectacular either. And for $ 1.20 per piece it wasn’t worth it, especially since most of the items were veggie rolls. I’ve had better variety and better quality fish in a party platter from Japango and their sister restaurant Yuzu No Hanna for a lot less.
Also ordered two pieces of unagi sushi ($ 5) and a spider roll ($ 14). The unagi was amazing. I love unagi and almost always order it when I go for sushi, and this place did a great job with it. The $ 14 spider roll was definitely over priced. I normally see spider rolls priced between $ 11 — $ 13. For $ 14 it should have been amazing, but it wasn’t.
Considering that they obviously have far less overhead than other sushi places (i.e. it’s a hole-​in-​the-​wall, take-​out joint) they marked up their prices way too much for what they offer.

Never judge a sushi joint by it’s cover.
At first glance (if you even glance walking by), its just another typical sushi joint on king st. This was my first impression upon stumbling on this oasis. I have been coming here for a couple years now and it’s still one of my top picks for lunch during work hours.
Its definitely small, however it has a welcoming feel when you first step inside. There is only a couple tables so most people just get take out. Be warned, it gets really busy at lunch. Try to call ahead of time to be the rush.
Alright, now the food. Fish is fresh, real fresh. They have the standard combos but I generally like to let the owner choose my fish for me. He always takes pride in letting me know the new menu items he has in that week. Horse Mackerel, Uni, etc… all good choices. #8 is good if you want a bit of everything.
If you’re close by, you should give it a shot!

I really expected much better reading the reviews. I ordered the #8 and it looked very sloppy, at least two pieces were broken in half. Two pieces of the order were SLIMY so I had to throw them out — the shrimp and I think it was squid or yellow tail (didn’t get a chance to eat it since it was slimy). I just re-​read the menu and I notice the #8 is supposed to come with spicy tuna roll… what? I swear I got a mix of salmon and tuna roll, not spicy. The service was friendly but overall I’m very disappointed. The only thing that was good was the salmon, tuna and eel and a separate order of the dragon roll.
Not sure what flavourful fish everyone is raving about because other than the what I mentioned above everything tasted like nothing.
Oh the shiso leaf actually tastes more like cumin than mint :)

I really like the fish here, it’s very fresh and taste very good. A tip, call first to put in your order or you may end up waiting a long time. I called and it was a 45 – 50 min wait and then I waited further when I got there. But I’ll get to that later.
I love Sashimi so I ordered the Sashimi Momiji. I’d say there were really 5 cuts of fish, but really only like 9 pieces. They had this one fish that was like almost julienned, no idea what fish it was but that was my favorite.
The packaging is kind of like what I’d find at those sushi places in malls, but it’s still nicer packaging that like styrofoam. They probably had a selection of salmon, tuna, snapper and that little cut up fish that I have no idea what it was but just melted in my mouth.
I also liked the little dish to put my soya sauce in. Too many times I try to find a small container for the soya sauce for takeout and I end up using some overly-​large tupperware.
The price point I think is probably right for the quality of fish, but with that said it’s more expensive than many other places because quality is a bit better.
The wait though was like really long. Everyone is polite about it, waiting until they get their food. I may order again because it does taste good, but I will make sure to order well in advance.

Fresh and delicious! Affordable too?! I love it! This is my new favourite sushi place. A very small but tidy and clean space. They have two small tables for 4 ppl to sit, which is great. Their spicy salmon rolls are yummy! I love their miso soup too! Not like those overly salty ones at Ayce sushi places. Yummy!

Signs of why this place is super good.
— I have friends who come from as far north as Bloor to just get take out
— even though at work my department has other options for sushi nearby, this one is the number one choice
— they remember mine and colleagues regular lunch orders each time as soon as we walk through the door
— super sweet service
— it is the closest place to where I live and my go to place for sushi
— they do great lunch combos for less than $ 15
Okay so like I said already my review is a combination of my views and a bunch of other people I have eaten with from here. They have like two tables so it is more of a take out option which is fine as both my house and work are close to here.
Of the hundreds of times I have been there they have always been consistent in service and quality of food. There are not many places in Toronto that can do that.

I read some great things about this place on Unilocal so I thought I’d give it a try.
The owner is definitely very knowledgeable and stresses that he only uses the freshest fish. I can attest to that.
I ordered a 15 piece sashimi and a roll. although I thought $ 30 was a bit much for it (it was just for me and he made it to order knowing it was just for one person) I would still order it again, purely for the freshness. He gave me a compplimentary soup too. I thought I wouldn’t be full after eating it all, but I was and it was delicious.
One thing that’s super cool about this place is they give you a little plastic dish for your soy sauce. I am always scrambling when I get home to find something to put it in. Somehow a plastic tupperwear container just doesn’t complete the meal, know what I mean? So this special and thoughtful touch is very cool in my books.
I think I may have to order from here tonight, just because now I’m craving it and I don’t feel like cooking dinner. Yum. White Tuna Sashimi, here I come! :)

Perhaps the best sushi takeout place in all of Toronto.
Tomo is a great host and often tries to accommodate his customers as much as possible. The quality is top notch — you will not find anything better.

I found my favorite sushi takeout place!
I ordered the Sushi No.8 combo based everyone’s recommendation and I’m glad I did. There was more pieces of sushi than I expected and the fish was very fresh and tasty. There were some tuna rolls with spicy sauce which were very good — they do not use chopped up tuna which all other sushi restaurants do which is a very good thing because you can really tell how good quality the tuna is. I am always fearful of spicy tuna rolls because the chopped tuna that’s used is often trimmings from their sushi/​sashimi and masked with a spicy mayo sauce.
At first I thought the side of wasabi was too little, but they also put some wasabi in the sushi so the amount was just right.
There are a couple very thoughtful touches that other sushi places should follow. Sushi 930 does not use the very annoying, useless, unenvironmentally-​friendly plastic grass garnish that everyone uses. They use a piece of shiso leaf instead which is really nice because it is edible. Shiso has a unique subtle mint flavour and supposedly to be a digestive aid, so after you’re done with your sushi meal you could nibble on the leaf. Just to warn you it’s a bit of an acquired taste.
Another thoughtful touch is that they give you a small plastic dipping dish for your soy sauce. This should be a must for any sushi take out because you can never find a place to contain your soy sauce and mix in your wasabi (other than the cumbersome sushi tray lid).
I also ordered a side of seaweed salad, but was too full from the sushi to get to it.
I also received a complimentary miso soup with my order which was very tasty.
The place is strictly a takeout place, as it is very small and only have a couple tiny tables with next to no ambiance, and they don’t offer beer or sake to enjoy with your meal.
The couple that runs the takeout place are so very friendly and nice. I will definitely be back, often!
