Toko Sushi

RedFlagDeals Deal of the Day


Miso Soup & Green Salad: (J) Soup was nice and hot. Salad had good orange dressing.

Chicken Udon: (J) big, filling bowl. (S) The soup looked clean, and the chicken kinda tasted like nothing, lol.

Tempura Appetizer, Edamame & Glass Noodles: (J) Tempura was hot and fresh. We didn't even touch the glass noodles and brought them home because we had too much food. (S) I could have had more edamame. The glass noodles tasted very salty.

3 Yellow Plates: cucumber and avocado rolls, rice-filled tofu, and egg sushi. (J) Tofu and egg were nice and sweet. (S) I liked the sweets.

2 Green Plates: cucumber rolls topped with shrimp or imitation crab. (S) The mayo was interesting.

2 Red Plates: spicy salmon and salmon rolls. (J) Rolls got better at the red plate level. I liked the spicy rolls with crispy bits on top. (S) Spicy was ok, I liked the flakey more.

1 Blue Plate: tempura shrimp rolls topped with eel and fish eggs. (J) Tempura was soft. Looked like the turnover rate for blue plates wasn't too high. (S) Eel was nice and I liked the fish eggs.

Desserts: green tea mochi (left); tempura ice cream (right): fried dough ball filled with green tea ice cream, served with chocolate sauce, cream, cantaloupe and lemon slices. (J) Mochi was semi-frozen yet chewy, and had a very good flavour. The tempura ice cream plate was a very odd combination, but I enjoyed it a lot. (S) Although the tempura ice cream looks much more exciting, I really liked the mochi because of its texture and taste. The tempura ice cream got pretty messy in the end, and I wasn't a big fan of the lemon/green tea ice cream.

Seafood Udon: from Osaka Sushi. (J) Lots of little tentacles and weird processed fish slices. No big shrimps like in the picture. (S) I ate all the weird stuff :P

Stone Pot Bibimbap: from Jang Kang. (S) Kinda tasted like eating nothing...not much flavour going on.

Phone: (416) 588-2700‎

Side dishes: kimchi, bean sprouts, seaweed and vegetables.

Seafood soft tofu: served with purple rice. (J) Easier to eat when it cooled down. The high temperature made it feel spicier than it really was. The leftover rice soaked in tea was also good. (S) Too spicy for me, the temperature heat + the spice heat made my tongue really sensitive.

Vegetable udon: (J) Broth tasted good. (S) The udon had good bite, and the broth was yummy.

Dinner Buffet: sushi pizza, mango roll, beef sashimi, deep fried durian, hiroshima pancake, beef udon soup, sake mussels, red bean ice cream and mango mousse. (J) Some of the items we ate. I enjoyed the quality of the cooked foods and desserts. Deep fried banana went well with red bean ice cream. (S) I liked the mango and avocado and the pancake. I had so many red bean ice creams. We thought the durian tasted like banana, but after eating the fried banana, we realized that the durian tasted nothing like the banana.
