Food selection is excellent. Minami is one of my favourite Japanese restaurants. Oshi dishes were enjoyed by me and my guests. Dishes are on the high side for price, so our bill was quite high, but we all enjoyed our evening and will certainly revisit if I’m in town. Server was also knowledgeable about food and Saki choices.

The food is overall pretty good - HIGHLY recommend the scallop oshi. The salmon oshi was pretty good, and the Minami roll was could have more flavour. The sauce with the charred broccolini was good, but I’m glad we tasted the other dishes first - the char taste from the grill was so overpowering that we couldn’t taste any of the flavors of the sushi after eating a piece of the broccolini. I was tasting the char hours later even after dessert. I also had the Sakura Spritz, and it was sweet and refreshing and perfect for summer.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and rating, Christine! I'm so glad to hear there were some standout dishes for you on our menu. The scallop oshi is definitely a favourite among guests and staff alike! We hope to see you again soon.. perhaps on the patio with a Sakura Spritz! Kind regarrds, Victoria

Wonderful dinner very delicious I have the charcoal chicken and avocado maki roll. beautiful ambience and very pleasant and attentive service. Loved it! But we were celebrating two birthdays and they never brought anything out for dessert with a candle so not sure if they just do that but I did write that in on reso and even hostess knew.
Minami Restaurant - TorontoResponded on June 15, 2025
Thank you for your review and rating, Marianna. I'm so glad you and your guests enjoyed the fare and service! My sincere apologies for the missed note about the candle for dessert, that is something we do normally do for our guests to help celebrate the occasion. I can only assume it was a miscommunication between staff, so again I do apologize for that. Candle notwithstanding, I do hope you had an enjoyable visit with us at Minami and we hope to see you again soon! Kind regards, Victoria Hevesi Manager
