Discovered this gem a month ago and casual sushi night has never been the same! High quality sushi AND great price point is a rare combo and Saku really raised the bar here.
On Queen street just west of Spadina, they opened up a few months ago and already I have lost count how many times I've visited. I was beyond excited to recognize the same owners as my previous fav sushi spot Hub Sushi before they changed ownership half a year ago.
Dinner set A is a must try. For $21 you get 12 piece sushi and 6 piece maki. The sushi spread is no joke, there is an impressive range of various types of tuna, yellowtail, salmon and even flame torched sushi. Fish is super fresh, at the perfect temperature and the rice is high quality Japanese rice - moist and fluffy. I did not know 20 bucks could go this far with sushi downtown.
For rolls I'm a fan of the Ocean Dream ($11) special roll with tuna, salmon, avocado, cucumber, fish eggs. Freshness explosion in your mouth! 10% on a special roll with yelp checkin is definitely a bonus.
As expected, they are getting busier and busier so would suggest making a reservation. Lately I've been recommending Saku left and right to family and friends and they all come back with the same verdict - love this place!
