They just started all you can eat in Monday and I came on Thursday. I think this is a high quality all you can eat sushi restaurant with fair price. Very nice environment if u are very hungry and want to eat a lot while Chilling with a friend. Quiet environment, small size restaurant, classic music,and friendly services.

High quality food and cool decor - will definitely go again

Typically I don't write reviews, but avoid at all costs... Seems like an owner change. Sashimi was served frozen!

First time here. Food was very fresh, service was fast and attentive, menu was not overwhelming like so many sushi places. I would even hesitate to call it a sushi joint, its so much better. Still thinking about my yummy garlic seared albacore tuna and can't wait to go back for more... Cool decor and wine choices too!

omi is a step above your generic sushi place down the street. ive been here twice, and both times very impressed with the quality of their dishes.

i enjoyed the lunch special today, total deal for $11.99. We shared an order of maki rolls and sashimi combo. it came with soup. everything i had was extremely well flavoured. i didnt feel like i was 'filling up' on sushi, but enjoying a well... more

AWESOME! get the omakase! ( tasting menu) it Rocks! Great Miso soup and Blow torched scallop is to die for. John Lee (owner) is the man!

NOT WORTH IT! I just ordered the $20 Omi Sushi (fresh catch) from the menu. First of all, nothing was really fresh from the fresh catch. Basic sushi (tuna, salmon, shrimp, etc) of 8 pieces with a basic roll of cucumber and white tuna with spicy mayonnaise sauce. Does not include soup or salad! Their sushi was so basic and regular. When I got there, I was surprised that the staff spoke chinese... more

A salt lover to the core, I've always been a great fan of miso soup. I love getting a bento box and slurping up the bowl of white miso broth, piping hot, rich with umami ( I used the word!For once it feels less snobby). OMI dishes up the classic with only a light spin, enough to make me tilt my head in amusement without being totally blown away. Miso soup is so simple that adding or modifying... more

Omi is my favourite Japanese restaurant in the city. Why you ask?

From the moment you walk in the door until the second you leave full of delicious goodness you are treated like royalty by the staff. The decor is casual yet classy with small tables lining an exposed brick wall and a small sushi counter off to the other side where the chef can be seen using a blow torch to cook the scallops for... more

Fresh, creative, delicious. What a relief to find - for a change - a wonderful Japanese restaurant in Toronto.

Nice but a bit pricy. But chef's special roll is really really good.

This isn't a sushi joint, it's a Japanese restaurant... and it's delicious. Since moving to Cabbagetown I've been three times. I always go for the chef's roll special and a side of safe.

The interior design is both adorable and chique, and the food is impossibly fresh.

You get what you pay for, as without alcohol dinner is about $50 for two w/ tip. Yes, that is expensive for 'sushi' as... more

Came here for dinner tonight (12.21.10).

The decor of the place is pretty cool. It's hidden on Carlton that it took me a couple of minutes to find this establishment. Luckily my dinner date had just arrived so they didn't have to wait too long for me as I parked my car.

I found the pricing of menu items to be overpriced considering what was being served. The clientele seem to be able to... more

I've only had omakase dinner here, so the rating is not related to menu-ordered dishes.

Chef Lee puts a lot of passion into his food, and you can taste it. If you care about quality and freshness, go to this place. Once I asked him if he had any uni, he pulled out a little tray of the stuff to show me, told me they weren't the freshest, therefore not good enough to be served to his customers.... more

If you're looking for a sushi bargain, don't eat here. But if you care about fresh fish, prepared with care, and great service and ambiance, then OMI is the place to go.
It's true that it's a little pricey, and I'm usually there for lunch. But as another reviewer pointed out, there are plenty of cheap and cheerful sushi places in Toronto. But there are only a handful to which I would give 4... more

Omi serves the best sushi I've had in Toronto. Their menu changes regularly and is inventive--not just the same old California rolls. They do amazing things with tuna sashimi. The gyoza taste like they've been prepared fresh. It's also a cute little place, tastefully and originally decorated.

It would be my favourite restaurant. But the portions are tiny, sometimes verging on microscopic and... more

Omi is hit or miss. I am now a regular customer, but not with out a few and by a few I mean 3 or 4 tries.

In all honesty, the first time I went I was very disappointed, the food I found was over priced and not all that great. I'm of the mind that you need to give a place a second chance, unless it's AWFUL like my visit to Voglie. As my visits increased so did the service. By the 3rd time the... more

Omi? Oh my! Cool little place. Great idea. Good food. BUT!!!!....I spent $40 and left on an empty stomach. One little appetizer was, if I recall, around 8 bucks and sounded fine on the menu. But when it came, I needed a magnifying glass to find it on the plate. Seriously, I sooo wish I could support Omi. I've been twice. It's in my neighbourhood, and we're desperately in need of good Japanese... more

Omi is a-ok. I had the Omakase here the other night and while the fish was definitely fresh and clean, healthy portions- the dishes weren't mind blowing or particularly unique. The cooked dishes included with the Omakase are a bit of a downer as well and do not add much value I find. For example, a mango calarmari was nothing more than deep fried calamari in a sweet sour sauce-meh. Cured sweet... more

I dined at Omi on Dec 27, 2008 and was terribly disappointed.
3 of my best friends and I have been dining at fine restaurants in Toronto since 1996. With somewhat high expectation of Omi this dinner was supposed to be our last fine dining experience of 2008. And Omi unfortunately let us down.

So far, I've never "yelped" and just read other yelpers' reviews. But the service at Omi was so bad... more

There are hundreds of sushi restaurants in Toronto, you can't swing a dead fish without hitting one, and for the most part one is just like the next. The one exception I have found so far is OMI. I don't know what they do differently but their sushi tastes better than any of the other sushi I've ever had. The store is tiny and I usually get take out, but it is a very nice dining room and if you... more
