    I used to work in the building where Toshi is and would often have lunch there.  Our company moved and I will confess I have visited both at lunch and supper and I really miss this place! The food is fresh and completely scrumptious

    Read the review of Toshi, and felt it was worth the drive to try out.

    I ordered the Dragon Roll - eel
    and asked them to make a roll that wasn't on the menu.
    I call it a Spicy Tempura - Shrimp Tempura with Spicy Tuna.
    It confused them dramatically! But after they said it would cost $3 more, they made it.
    Both rolls came out great, fresh, and presentable.

    Ran out of Wassabi & Ginger.
    I had to wait till I got my bill to get my first refill on my water.

    Nice, clean place. All the dishes I saw coming out to the other tables looked great. Everyone looked very pleased with their meals.
    Very pleasent wait staff.

    I know the owner personally as he is a customer of mine...not to be biased, I got to know him after eating his fantastic cuisine... I'm not a sushi guy, but the sushi is fresh and the people that eat it say it is great.
    The teriyaki is awesome, if you go by the take out area the owner is the actual cook, who is almost always there as he runs a tight ship and takes pride in his work. Nevertheless, the take out prices are so cheap, made to order right before your eyes, the place doesnt have all the pizzaz of some restaurants, but the quality of food and the prices are awesome....give it a try... trust me you'll be sold...

    I didn't order sushi when I went here. I got beef&chicken teriyaki, my friend got some sort of stir fried udon noodle with chicken teriyaki, and my other friend got chirashi sushi.

    Nice clean atmosphere. The owner and my server were actually Japanese unlike most other Japanese restaurants are owned by either Chinese or Korean.

    The food quality is excellent. The ingredients they use are very fresh, you could taste the different.

    The food taste good, however I think the teriyaki tasted too "homemade", like if I make a chicken teriyaki at home, it would taste exactly like theirs. So it doesn't really feel like eating a restaurant food. Or maybe I just make a good chicken teriyaki...

    If you're ever in brampton and want to eat some really good authentic sushi, I recommend this place. It is a small family business owned by a Japanese family (which you don't see a lot), which I believe reflects a lot about their care, quality and presentation.
    The salmon sashimi there is awesome, which is part of the reason I'm a big fan. Portions are moderate to large. They have a wide variety in sushi which you don't get to see a lot of at sushi buffets, including shrimp and octopus sashimi (both worth a try!). Service is moderate depending on which server you get.

    What a surprising discovery! My husband and I stumbled upon this place yesterday and talk about a pleasant surprise! Admittedly we were a bit snobbish in our expectations as we've tried many great sushi places in the city and a random little place on Hwy #10 in north Brampton didn't seem like it would rock our world. But, the fish was so fresh, beautifully cut and inventive in its presentation that we were really taken aback. The only caveat, as Aaron points out, is that the service is sparse. They take your order, bring you the food and bring you the bill. God forbid you need a drink refill or extra tea because they're not cycling around to ensure you have what you need. This was a bit frustrating as it seemed that with this little fix we'd be pretty close to perfection.
    Now, I don't know if I'd say get in a car if you live downtown and head up here to try it out but, if you're in the area, it's worth finding this place for a delicious lunch or dinner.
