Shoushin

Quality of food was immaculate but nothing extraordinary in terms of flavour. The biggest downer was the experience of the owner/chef that was beyond dull and cocky.

Hands down the best restaurant I have ever been to. It was a very special treat. Every course of the ‘Sakura’ Omakase dinner was incredible. We got to try so many things we have never had before. Every flavour was interesting and amazing. The texture and taste of the fish was unbelievable. It’s certainly not a meal that we could enjoy frequently, but well worth the cost for an extra special night out.
We sat at the bar, which I would really recommend. We got to watch the chefs at work, they were ready and willing to answer our questions.
The service was incredible. It felt like they knew what I wanted before I did. I do not drink, but my husband got the Sake pairing. He really enjoyed all of the options and we all enjoyed learning about the different types of sake and how to pair them with the various courses.
When we went, we told ourselves ‘this is a once in a lifetime meal’. Now we can’t wait to be able to visit again.

Absolutely one of the greatest sushi restaurant in Toronto. Definitely recommended to those who appreciate real authentic sushi cuisine.

I can't believe it took me so long to try this. Everything was good from the first course til the end.
Service was amazing, and I highly recommend this.

I am beyond thrilled to have stumbled upon this amazing Japanese restaurant, and I just can't recommend it enough! A few things really made this dining experience stand out for me, and I have to share them.

First off, their sushi game is seriously on point! They've taken care of every little detail, from the sauce and fish to the rice, everything was paired to perfection. I didn't even need to add anything - this is hands down the best sushi I've ever had in the GTA!

Now, let me tell you about the delightful surprise I encountered. There was this soup, which honestly looked like a noodle dish at first glance. But guess what? Those "noodles" were actually delicate, transparent baby eels! Such an inventive and tasty creation!

And finally, the sea urchin - oh, the sea urchin! It was so sweet and completely free of any bitterness, making it an absolute treat to savor.

In conclusion, if you haven't been to this Japanese restaurant yet, you're seriously missing out! Trust me, you won't regret giving it a try.

This is the best omakase I’ve ever had.
Service provided are first class. Food is amazing! Thank you chefs for offering all the great food and amazing experiences!

This was an absolutely amazing experience. I'm really not educated on Japanese cuisine but every member of staff took to the time to explain each and every dish. Everyone was very friendly. Every single plate was delicious.

The experience was beyond words. The food was spectacular. The customer service was perfect. They emailed me and called me beforehand. When at the restaurant they were so attentive to the smallest details, ensuring maximal satisfaction. Would highly recommend the chef table, as you get to watch and speak to the chef. I’m introverted and I had a blast! The chef were so attentive and personable and funny! Hands down best experience. The food was absolutely delicious. The overall experience was immaculate. I was so happy with the experience I hardly even took photos. I was distracted by the great service and the mouth watering food and chefs company. The egg tasted like cake. The matcha cake and pumpkin brûlée were mouth watering. The melon is a must try. The matcha tea was delicious. The bill was hefty but worth it! A great anniversary, one for the books indeed!

Great food and atmosphere. It’s been a while since we had Omakase in North America. The selections chef made was great. Definitely return again

The selection ranges from decent to very good. You are definitely paying for the food as much as you are paying for the experience. Given the personalized nature of the course, I expect it will get better over time. The service is excellent, the staff knows their stuff and are very courteous. Will go again when I really want to treat myself

Truly one of the most disappointing visit and menu I ever had. I came before covid, it was amazing and super dream worthy experience but this time around it was a complete joke. Picked the $480 menu. I was expecting a lot more for what I'm paying but nothing was special, thought it was super basic. Between every nigiri, too much wasabi couldn't taste the freshness of the fish. Also told the staff I was allergic to the melon dessert, didn't get a replacement dessert. Not only was the owner giving us dirty/judgemental looks, other chef was rude.

Incredible quality, care and passion in each dish. A must-try Edo Tokyo style sushi in Toronto. Sake pairing is perfect with the Perfection Omakase dinner. Happily accommodating to a shrimp and nut allergy.

We had an amazing experience! The food was delicious and the service was top knotch! The whole meal was a journey and it was great chatting with Chef Lin and our server. I can't wait to go back!

An incredible and delicious omakase experience. A perfect meal for our anniversary. We enjoyed our time at Shoushin so much that my wife forgot how to walk on the way out… Thank you Shoushin for a perfect dining experience!

We had such a wonderful experience at Shoushin yesterday! The food is absolutely extraordinary, and the team is nothing short of extraordinary too! My last dinner at Shoushin was pre-pandemic and it has wonderful as ever. And more counter space A big thank you to the team for making that night super special for us and your friends.

An unbelievable experience. My wife and I visited Shoushin for our wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed. On the day we went, the restaurant had just recently received a Michelin Star and rightfully so. The quality of fish, the presentation, the flavors, the service and the overall atmosphere were second to none. We tasted things that we have never tasted before and Shoushin just blew ours minds! There were things that my wife and I normally don't eat at any other Japanese restaurants (I usually don't like squid and she does not like Uni). But here.the taste and quality had us enjoying absolutely everything (even the slice of melon at the end of the meal was like nothing we ever tasted before)! All of the staff were extremely friendly, courteous and knowledgeable in each of their roles and I must say that this restaurant offered some of the best service we have ever received at any restaurant. We will definitely be back to enjoy another incredible meal with all the wonderful people at Shoushin!
