Saku Toronto

Great place with modern feeling, there is an enormous amount of willing to be tried. that means it doesn't feel like your usual sushi place! the sashimi prices are high and the quantity is low! the place seems to be better suited. a specific bar and there is no problem with it!

Eating was absolutely amazing! each individual dish was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. the prices were very appropriate with regard to the quality of the quantity of food we received. we really enjoyed our lunch here and would come back when we in. toronto

Saku is today our usual sushi spot, and we would normally have 5 stars for the chef sushi, 4.5 stars for the Aburi sushi and 3.5 to 4 stars for most of their cooked appetizers (as most are average taste and small portions. today's...Rating is just 2 stars because we ordered sushi with brown rice (which we have done many times before, but the chef has clearly underboiled and used cold brown rice. the rice was dried and did not stay together. every piece of sushi we picked up fell completely apart before we could get it in the mouth. and the rice was clear over at night, which was not properly boiled, so that it was both dried and a bit crispy. Saku cuisine, they should know better. the texture was so poor that it was not for the very fresh and otherwise delicious fish. please improve and be more careful about it, or they lose a regular customer. rice is cheap, even brown rice. they can afford to make it fresh every day and all the rest (or know enough to add and stir a small spoon of water to overnight rice, then microwave it to a high for a minute and it is dampened and soft again, and I know what I'm talking about when it comes to preparing rice. not only did I live 2 years in japan and had sushi regularly, I also eaten daily rice (on asian and also cook yourself (including brown rice that requires more water and longer cooking time). I know exactly the texture of dried rice, which is stored overnight. that is suitable for fried rice dishes, but definitiw a big no-no for sushi. we really appreciate that there is a brown rice option. it is healthy and a great reason why we are regular customers (together with the fact that their fish is fresh and tasty. However, they need to make it better. we give them another chance and see how they do next time. the future assessment will be reflected accordingly.

The food was delicious and the staff was super friendly. highly recommended. many thanks for a wonderful culinary experience.

Even though the sushi is a little pricey it’s completely worth every penny ! Fresh tasting and great flavour profiles. Highly recommend
