Nestle inside the corner of Assembly Hall, is the stand up sushi bar Toronto has been longing for - Tachi. Tachi serves omakase style sushi in less than 30 minutes.
Forty-five dollars plus tax for 11 nigiris and a handroll! Nigiris includes Hotate scallop, lean tuna, medium fatty tuna, fatty tuna, Saba mackerel, etc. All delicious with distinct flavours. The chef is charismatic and humorous. He shared a little "sushilosophy" (get it? philosophy shared while having sushi) on the meaning behind the hummingbird tattoo on his forearm, sometimes you have to step back or take a pause before moving forward.
Overall, I highly recommend Tachi! Remember to be on time! :) Also, try to resist from take photos of the nigiris (which I clearly could not)! The chef warned us that each second delayed in eating the nigiris, results in equal decline in quality!
