Came here on a Saturday night with my friend based on the good reviews and wow, were we ever disappointed. We had to wait about 15 mins for a table which was fine. We ordered some nigiri sushi and sashimi to start. The salmon and tuna nigiri sushi were okay. The red tuna sushi tasted really bad and there was something off about it. The tuna sashimi was almost frozen and the salmon sashimi was okay. The maki rolls were okay — nothing special about them. I ordered seafood udon in hopes of washing away the awful red tuna taste in my mouth and had to remind them about it. l. When I got the udon, the broth tasted like «plastic» and it smelled bad. The beef ribs were dry. The oysters tasted like it was from a can and the deep fried scallop was burnt. They forgot 3 of our orders but we decided to not remind them because the food was not great. We also saw a waiter drop some napkins on the floor, pick them up and put them onto a pile of clean napkins! Unacceptable. When we were about to pay, we were then told that they only accept VISA and Mastercard which was fine but I wished that they indicated that somewhere on their menu or in the restaurant. The customer service was not great. They don’t tell you what the dish is when they bring it out and they don’t really acknowledge you when you enter or leave. For the expensive price of this place, we expected better. Definitely will not be coming back and would never recommend this place to anyone.
tl;dr: food was bad and we saw a waiter put dropped napkins back into the pile of clean napkins

I haven’t been here in over 5 years and still as good as I remembered. Came in on a Saturday,
The service was good, the food came at a reasonable time.
The quality of the food is better than most sushi places I’ve been.
So I am a fan and will be back :)

My longtime trusty AYCE sushi restaurant. Being going here for years. Service and food is great. Servers are very friendly, I enjoy coming here.

Tried the AYCE menu… There was hair in the food, the dynamite roll had no taste and barely any shrimp inside. Tried different maki rolls and they all had no flavour. Most likely will not go back.

Echo Sushi was so packed on a weekday afternoon that my boyfriend and I waited for a few minutes before we got seated. Sniffing the air, my boyfriend announced that it smelled strangely like sweat, but besides this alarming fact everything else in this restaurant was awesome.
We got a checklist of the food we would like to order, and the menu had lots of variety (except they didn’t have sashimi). It consisted of maki rolls, nigiri, teriyaki, skewers, tempura and desserts. There were less brown rice options compared to white rice, but to have brown rice at no extra cost was very generous already. You either get EIGHT maki rolls or SIX, and they all taste pretty great. I was not fond of Echo Sushi Roll, however, which was 90% mayonnaise and 10% salmon.
If you order calamari or fried banana, the portions are very tiny. They are basically side-​dish size. To sum it up, if you order anything that is NOT sushi, the portion will be small.
On a weekday, including tax and tip, we each paid $ 20 for AYCE. Not bad, considering we ate enough to feed a small country. I would come back if I was in the area again!

I had sushi and sushimi at many other restaurants, and never did I like them nearly as much as at Echo Sushi. Echo Sushi is this tiny Japanese restaurant just north of Davisville station; because it’s so small, it’s easy to get a waiter’s or waitress’s attention, which is especially beneficial when you have all-​you-​can-​eat. I always take my friends to this place, and everyone loves it.
Recommended: plum wine.

My friends and I came here for lunch on a busy Saturday and were a bit disappointed given the rave reviews on Unilocal.The sushi rolls were decent but they were lacking flavour so we asked for spicy mayo (helped a lot!). The beef ribs were extremely overcooked, stiff and dry and I love beef ribs so I asked for another dish of that cooked medium rare and they came back with another dish of beef ribs just as overcooked! The beef teriyaki was also overcooked which was disappointing. To add to that, why is the sushi shaped like a male part?! I thought it was quite humorous and I’m sure they didn’t intend for it at all.
Good things about Echo Sushi was the service was excellent — servers were very attentive of our table and served water and tea quickly! The teriyaki salmon as delicious but I seem to like anything salmon. The garlic beef dish was amazing — I have never ate a dish like that before! Lastly, the udon was actually quite yummy. To be honest though, I probably won’t come here again considering there are better and cheaper sushi places in Toronto.

Went yesterday (Thursday night) for AYCE.
Price-​wise, it’s quite expensive for a weekday. The servers were decent, cleared our plates quickly and served water/​tea efficiently.
The salmon sashimi was not the freshest, it was just ok. I liked the brown-​rice option for 5 – 6 of their maki rolls, however, if you prefer brown rice for their other rolls, it will cost you extra.
Also worth mentioning, they don’t offer all of their maki rolls from their regular menu on their AYCE menu.
Teriyaki beef and salmon were both quite bland. Oh, don’t order the eggplant teriyaki, it was just a lump of tasteless mess.
This was my first time going to Echo Sushi, and it will be my last. There are better AYCE sushi restaurants out there.

We had the all you can eat and it was just okay and given the quality the price was a bit unreasonable. Nothing amazing but not despicable either. Service was great so for that they get the extra star.
The meat on a stick was dry and maybe deep fried so it was tough and chewy. Short ribs were equally tough. Sushi, sashimi, maki were alright, nothing memorable though.
We’re not going back, because the food isn’t worth going back for.

This place was really good, especially for an AYCE joint. The spicy salmon rolls are so delish! Everything we had was great (and we had a lot) with the exception of the shot ribs — they were a little dry, shriveled, and flavorless. The service was fast and friendly. The server checked in often and we never had to wait long for anything. Prices are super reasonable. I would recommend!

Out of all the AYCE sushi places in this city, I personally find this one to be one of the best. The fish always taste fresh and their sashimi is excellent.

I’ve been to many AYCE sushi restaurants and this one deserves 2.5 stars. Considering the location and lack of competition in the area, it’s decent enough. There are better AYCE sushi restaurants north of the city though.
Three of us came here for dinner on a Sunday due to convenience and extreme hunger. I’ve actually been here twice. The first time was several years ago but the only thing I remember was that it was an average AYCE restaurant. This time around, I had the opportunity to assess better. The variety and options were good. The size of the shrimp tempura were embarrassingly tiny. I had noticed that the beef dishes, including the garlic and beef and the short ribs were small pieces as well. The spicy udon noodles were good, with chewy textured noodles. The rice from the maki rolls were a bit plain and tasteless. The salmon sashimi tasted fresh. They didn’t have a lot of sashimi options though.
The service was very good though. They were attentive, food came quickly, and our tea cups were always filled. The price was about the same as any other AYCE restaurant, which was $ 24.95 per person on a weekend for dinner.

Been to this place two times now. First time we went we were not impressed BUT we decided to give it another try since it has such high ratings, we thought the first time we’d gone was a one off but were we ever wrong.
Service: 4 stars
Staff very nice and attentive, zero complaints in that department.
Food:
Sashimi 3.5
Sushi 3
Maki 2.5
Hot food 3
The sashimi was fresh, clean no nasty fishy smell and prices were a decent size. Sashimi was the best thing at echo sushi. The sushi I’ve given it a 3 simply because there was too much rice and the rice was bad. The rice was of the wrong consistancy, it was warm, tasted bad and made my bf and I feel not so good. Maki I gave 2.5 because of the rice. The hot foods were okay, honestly not the worst but not the best either. I did get some very burnt dumplings and tiny beef ribs (refer to photos).
Overall, echo sushi is not the worst AYCE I’ve been to but it’s also not worth it’s high rating it has. I would recommend Sushi One in the Yonge and Sheppard area if you don’t mind the distance.

really dont understand the good reviews? Miso soup was way too salty… which is weird since it tastes like the powdered kind so I don’t get how you mess up following the instructions for making it?
Specialty maki rolls were big which is fine, but had too much rice and I think the rice may have been over cooked because chewing a piece of the roll felt like chewing a big ball of gum or mochi…
Only thing going for this place is its low price. $ 10 for lunch set of miso soup, salad and two maki rolls (dynamite and tuna)

I came to this AYCE because I wanted to try an AYCE downtown-​ish. So based on the reviews here, 80 reviews average at 4 stars. my family came here.
but wow, were we disappointed. Everything was sub-​par considering the price of what I can get at other AYCE.
Let’s compare:
Sashimi — no squid, no sweet shrimp, no mackerel, no scallops,
Cooked food — no steamed eggs, no teppanyaki shrimp, no mussels, grilled salmon bellies, fried squid balls… no other kinds of noodles besides udon. no baked seafood avacado…
basically, they don’t have a lot for their price tag.
then add the additional parking fee
If you’re looking for AYCE uptown, try ten-​ichi (expensive but a wide variety of quality food, and you can request the items be served on a boat), or sushi on 7 (most economical at $ 19.99 — plus print 10% coupon from
(chinese site, so if you can’t read, just type sushi on 7 on their search bar).

Other than fresh salmon sashimi and deep fried food (e.g. tempura and dumplings), the rest of the items on the menu were disappointing. Don’t get makis. We ordered four makis (Spicy salmon, Avocado and salmon, Monster Roll and Red Dragon Roll) and they were all bad. Spicy salmon maki was not spicy; I couldn’t tell if there was a sauce in it. It didn’t have a lot of tempura; just a lot of rice. Spicy salmon sushi was better tasting than spicy salmon maki. Maybe the rest of the items containing rice were bad, because they used sushi rice that’s not the best kind.
BBQ eel sushi tasted different from the typical BBQ eel sushi I have tasted in other restaurants. The dipping sauce they gave us with tempura oysters tasted similar to A1 steak sauce. Tempura scallops and tempura oysters were pretty good. Plating was nice.
The service was quick and friendly. The server even remembered which ice cream each person ordered and placed each bowl in front of the right person. They forgot a couple of items that we had checked off on the ordering sheet, though.
This restaurant did have a wide selection of sashimi, sushi, teppanyaki, teriyaki, udon, sushi pizza, salad, desserts and more, even beef sushi and vegetarian makis, but the only soup they offered on their ayce sushi dinner menu was miso soup.
$ 25.99 per person for ayce sushi dinner from Fridays to Sundays.
I am not sure if there was parking available; you probably have to park on a street or in a municipal lot.

Definitely «as good as it gets»!
As a regular patron for some time, and an ‘ex-​pat’ from Vancouver, I must say this truly is a consistently exceptional AYCE place — great quality, excellent selection, excellent (prompt, friendly, attentive) service, and an all-​around great experience. every time.
A must try for anyone that enjoys sushi. and has a half-​decent appetite.

The best All You Can Eat Sushi in Toronto? It definitely lives up to its title.
I went here today for my 18th birthday and absolutely loved every bite. The menu is vast with many options, ranging from regular sushi to more extravagant teriyaki and even sushi pizza (although we didn’t try this).
The fish was fresh and flavourful, each piece seemed to be cut and crafted with care. The chefs also add a large amount of fish, unlike most AYCE restaurants, which use too much rice to save on the cost of fish.
Service was good, but they seemed a bit understaffed. There were only two waitresses serving and bussing tables for about 25 people during the evening rush.
Make sure to place a reservation if you have a party of four or more! The restaurant is quite compact and the majority of the tables were filled with couples out for dinner. One group of 6 had to wait almost half an hour to get a seat.
All in all, the experience was wonderful and I plan to return, despite the long drive from my home in Etobicoke.

After looking at countless sushi places midtown, and basing it on the reviews, Echo Sushi was our decision to try.
I must say that the interior of this is very warm, cozy, small with its Japanese themed décor. The servers were very polite and extremely efficient. Though the ambience and service was rated a 4.5÷5, the same can’t be said for the food.
Our dishes that we ordered were beautifully presented but looks can be deceiving. Both Iriana and I decided to share a few dishes: dynamite, California, Echo Sushi roll and mixed veg n shrimp tempura. First thing we both realized was the amount of rice used to make the rolls, it’s disproportionate sizing was a bit of a turn off. As well my echo sushi roll did not look appetizing that it began to fall apart as I tried picking it up with my chopsticks. The overall taste was ALRIGHT, their tempura was properly seasoned and fried.
Their prices are reasonable, however if you do not wish to order a la carte you can opt for AYCE (all you can eat). Echo sushi is mid range leaning towards my mediocre radar. I don’t think I’ll be coming back.

I am giving this spot a 4⁄5 because my good friend comes here once per week (she lives in the area) and the food and service is consistently good.
She and I decided to order take out that evening. We went with salmon, mackerel and butterfish sashimi (an order comes with 3 pieces each) and a few different roles. I liked how you could get brown rice rolls if you wanted. (For a small additional charge). The service was great and it didn’t take them too long to put it together.
The sashimi was excellent! The rolls were coming apart a little but still yummy. A touch on the pricey side but given the quality I would say it was worth it…
Check it out if you are in the yonge and eglinton area and have a sushi craving!
