brian was an AMAZING server, 10/10
Waitress was really attentive, answered questions, provide great recommendations. Now for the food. We eat sushi / sashimi all the time and were not sure what to expect from look at the menu ahead of time. Glad we went! Kudos to the chefs for how the sushi and salads are made. Very unique with lots of amazing flavour. It’s such that you don’t actually use wasabi and soya sauce. Will go back for sure and highly recommend for those wanting to try sushi differently.
Amazing experience. Service was great !
Great food, friendly service! Would highly recommend.
This is the way to operate a restaurant. Friendly, tasty, fresh, beautifully arranged and tastefully decorated. One can’t ask for anything else. Prices are reasonable and we definitely recommend Minami Toronto for any occasion.
I had a great experience at Minami thanks to very friendly servers, Tamaki and Dan. The price might seem a bit high, but it is more than worth for the quality and the size of each dish. I am looking forward to going back soon.
staff are superb and always treat me (Lucky) like i’m a celebrity……. BEST staff ever….
Michelle, Nick, Shintaro, Lee…. and all the team.
will go here for business dinners and some personal celebrations whenever i can….
Amazing food , let alone the service! The nigiris were impeccable - my favorite was the ebi and the scallop. The salmon oshi was on point as well.
Was here on our anniversary and they surprised us with a little dessert. Will be back for sure.
The food was amazing! The service was amazing, our waiter was very courteous and was telling us little facts about the food. Overall, it was a very good experience, and I'd for sure go again!
Great place. Diferente sushi
It was amazing and the ambience was glorious.
First visit at Minami Restaurant was exceptional excellent. Yes, we will recommend with great pleasure.
We love food. And so does Minami.
We ordered the Sashimi -Gozen Lunch Set and the Beef Sukiyaki.
Sashimi was fresh and well made. Beef Sukiyaki was not the classic one, so I was initially surprised. But after reading the details on the menu, I realized that Minami made their version of the Sukiyaki.
The sushi rolls had too much rice but overall, it was a great meal considering the quality of the food, service, and ambiance. Most of all, the price was worth the value of our meal. We will definitely come back.
Thank you.
great food, terrible service. took 30 minutes to get a glass of water.

Sat on the patio which was beautiful and from entry to exit the service was beyond excellent, the meal amazing. Have already recommended to friends!
The food was decent, but for the price, it wasn't worth it.
The service was amazing, we talked to a few different staff that came over while we were dining and they were all so nice. We asked our server to make recommendations of the menu and we tried a lot of food and drinks - all we’re delicious. Highly recommend!
Thank you for the glowing review! We are so glad you enjoyed your time at Minami. We hope to welcome you back soon!
The nigiri was excellent. The roles were not - tasted like canned tuna and the second one was just okay. Presentation was great. Service was great. I would go back but would absolutely not order a roll!

One of the best sushi spots in Toronto! Excellent!!
Service and ambiance was great. The food is simply not edible for the most part. Shame as its a nice space overall.
Appreciated the delicious authentic Japanese food and excellent service.
It was my our first time dining here, and we really enjoyed it. The sushi and cocktails were amazing and so was our server. Definitely look forward to returning.
Very disappointed with the quality of food. Some fish were not fresh & some were tasteless.

Modern yet warm vibe. Decent size outdoor patio but only have umbrellas, rain would be an issue. Table by the windows are fun. Service is good if not too affected ( saccharin sweet). Food is exquisite but very expensive for portion size. Went for special birthday dinner.
Great food, service, atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.
Great good and experience.
The execution by the kitchen is flawless. There’s an attention to detail that is obvious. Presentation was only surpassed by the flavour of the dishes and the creativity of the Chef. It was outstanding in every way.
Visiting Minami for the first time and it was great! We did the chef’s tasting menu which was delicious! Service was a tad slow because it was busy, but our server was kind, apologized for the delay and it was a great experience!
Amazing service in a beautiful location! Would absolutely go again.
We really enjoyed the food and service. We tried the chef’s menu and were very impressed with the quality of ingredients and the fusion tastes in the four course menu. We also upgraded to the wagyu in the tasting menu and the beef was excellent. The person looking after us was shin taro and he was superb. The only word of caution is that the patio can get extremely windy due to a wind tunnel around that front patio so next time we will definitely book indoors as it was uncomfortable to sit outside after a while due to strong winds.
First time...definitely a solid choice for sushi. Unique preparation and very fresh. A bit on the expensive side, but very high quality products. Give it a try.
Service was excellent, food delish with amazing flavors.
Great ingredients, cool variety in menu options, and the service is attentive and knowledgable.
We had such a great server and the food was delicious! Highly recommend
Best new sushi spot in Toronto! Their wagyu beef is amazzzzinggg!
Everything perfect just a bit too loud (music) at 5:30 pm
excellent place with fabulous Japanese food including A 5
Server and hostess was friendly and made the experience so much better. Food was delicious. Overall my daughter and loved it!
We were a dinner party of 7 on the patio, which is beautiful but noisy with the frequent sirens from the emergency vehicles. You do get used to them and there is a break between them, but wow - they are loud! Service overall was very good, we ordered a bit too much but it was all super delicious (the only dish that we weren't keen on was the seaweed salad, as it was different than we were expecting). You have to order the oshi, especially the ebi oshi, soo yummy! Other favourites were the brussel sprouts, brocollini, kaisen roll, bc tempura roll and the crudo style sashimi. We have visited Minami in Vancouver and also loved the overall experience. We would definitely return to this location next time were in Toronto and looking for amazing sushi!
If you like aburi oshi sushi similar to what you’d get at Miku, you’ll love their sister restaurant Minami! It feels a lot more up-scale than eating at Miku if I’m being honest, the ambiance is 10 out of 10. Our server was a little awkward, but the food came out at a good time and the quality was above and beyond my expectations. You must try the Minami signature set if you decide to come!
