A Undergraduate Culinary Gem in Kingston - K-Pop Sub Sushi

K-Pop Sub Sushi in Kingston is a gastronomic experience that stands out, even when compared to the diverse culinary landscape of my hometown, Toronto!

Despite initial reservations about the establishment's cleanliness, the culinary delights offered here quickly ECLIPSE any such concerns!:)

The sushi bowls and burritos served at K-Pop Sub Sushi are, quite simply, unparalleled! The flavors are a symphony of traditional and contemporary tastes, masterfully combined to create dishes that are both innovative and deeply satisfying. The seaweed is always fresh, imparting a crisp, oceanic essence to each bite. The Japanese gourd, or Kanpyō, adds a unique sweetness and texture that is both surprising and delightful. The creaminess of perfectly ripe avocado and the array of additional toppings create a rich array of flavors as you engorge yourself from famishness.

But what truly sets K-Pop Sub Sushi apart is the extensive selection of sauces. Each sauce, from the subtly sweet to the exhilaratingly spicy, is crafted to complement the sushi's flavors, elevating the dish to new heights of culinary excellence, at least for students in this town!

This establishment has become a beloved spot among the Queen's University student community.and for good reason!

The combination of flavor, creativity, and value makes K-Pop Sub Sushi a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an exceptional sushi experience in Kingston. It's not just a meal; it's an adventure in taste that leaves you craving more. A definite 5-star recommendation for anyone who appreciates the art of sushi burrito making.

Was my first time there and the gentleman at the counter was super helpful in walking me through ordering and making recommendations without obvious upsells. Nice staff, good food, good prices

Great little take out restaurant. Very unique concept, and the sushi burrito was soooo yummy! You’d choose your protein, then 2 sauces and 5 fillings. The owner was very friendly and helpful with choosing the right fillings. I’d definitely come back again!

The burritos are always packed full of fish and they're super tasty and reasonably priced! The owner is also very lovely. Whenever I feel like I needed a pick me up treat, this is where I always went.

The ordinary looking of the restaurant should not stop you from trying its world-class sushi.

Place is pretty good, sushi burrito is exactly what you’re gonna get. It’s fast and I’ve had it a couple times and it’s a lot of options and filling.

Came here with my friends for dinner! They didn’t have dine in, so we ate at a nearby chatime.the burrito was very good and filling, and the owner was kind and gave us good recommendations on what to order.it was kind of expensive, ~$16, but it was worth it! Would go again, it’s something you should try at least once:)

Noah prepared my sushi burrito with great care. It was delish! Made to order. Lots of toppings to choose from. Structural integrity of the seaweed sheets are sus, possibly next I'll ask to double up said sheets. Otherwise sushi with a twist. I recommend.

The owner was so friendly and the place was delicious! They put a lot of stuff into the burrito and I kept wondering how they would all fit in but he rolled it up like magic. The vegetables are super fresh and they give you a lot of salmon!

Not happy. The rice is half-cooked and has this mushy, crunchy white core in it. The asparagus is obviously OFF even the sauce won't cover its smell.
Been here a few times. Sad to see the food quality going downhill. The price is still solid considering the price increase in other restaurants.

An interesting take on Sushi.

I've only ever had one but DAMN it was good.

Good staff here too. Will go again whenever I find the time.

This place is a gem in Kingston! I always miss this place during the summer when I'm in Toronto! The ingredients are super fresh and delicious!

Good food, reasonable price. Owner is very Zen so sometimes the business hour flucturate by a lot.

First time trying this place, I was very excited to try this since I heard highly about it, however, I was slightly disappointed on some aspects. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a friendly staff (probably the owner) and we ordered the food. Many of the things on the menu looked very appetizing - we ordered a shrimp tempura burrito and it came with 5 toppings (with a HUGE variety to choose from). The burrito looked great as they were building it - paid around $12 after taxes for the entire thing.

On a downside, it seemed like the hygiene of the sushi bar was not as tight as the standard should be. The fryer for the tempura did not seem like been cleaned for a while, and the rice was very hard like it has been left out of its container for a few hours. As well, the staff did not change gloves before making our burrito - however I did notice that he did indeed change it for the NEXT customer (just be sure to pay attention if you have allergies!)

Overall, it was a very upbeat place that is loved by the Kingston community, and I am delighted to hear that it is not usually like this. I would give it another shot, however, the first impression will be the review! Just be sure to be clear with your expectations if you have any allergies!

Recently visited Kingston for a hockey tournament and found this gem. These sushi burritos are priced reasonably but the owner jam packs them with your choice of protein (s), 2 sauce options, and 5 toppings, all on a large bed of rice and salad. Everything was fresh as it was so busy in there the line went out the door with hungry locals. Would definitely recommend!

The fact they called themselves "kpop" sushi should be a red flag. Inside food prep station looks very unsanitary, staff are slow, and food is just okay.

Kpop Sub Sushi actually one of my favourite spots in Kingston. I'm so glad to have given this place a chance, despite walking by it many times. The food is fresh, the portion is amazing, and to top it off, the prices are very reasonable. The owner of the store is also very nice and I look forward to coming back to try other sushi subs!

DELICIOUS - with huge portions. I don’t even go out for regular sushi anymore because for $13.00 I can get a sushi burrito that fills me until the following week haha. Absolutely love this place and it will always be my go-to spot when I’m craving sushi.which is like every day.

I was excited to try this place and it did not disappoint. I had the salmon burrito, which was fantastic. I didn't know what to put on it, so I asked for advice, and the chef was friendly and extremely helpful. He's very generous with the toppings too. Very filling.

Wonderful. Think subway but sushi burritos with actual fresh food with wonderful portions and excellent staff. I will make a habit to come back every time I'm in town. Everyone do yourself a service and give it a shot. Keep this wonderful small shop around because things this great are rare. Thank you for the great meal, take care of yourself.

Love the sushi burrito! It's healthy, delicious and satisfies my craving for sushi. I really like their sauces too, especially the hot mayo.

The sushi Burritos were so good. There were so many toppings to choose from, and everything was fresh. I got the salmon burrito. Highly recommend the fish cake as one of the toppings. Very satisfying meal. Will be back.
