Cho San Sushi is a new sushi establishment on Woodbine, in the same plaza as Cafe n One. Chef Zhang, former sushi chef of Zen Sushi a high end premium sushi restaurant became well known over the pandemic for making premium omakase sushi boxes ordered via Instagram. With the popularity of the online business, Cho San now has a physical space with beautiful wooden interiors. Fridges with a large selection of fish imported from Japan line one wall of the space. You can order sushi off their menu or select sashimi grade fish by weight from the fridge, and watch as they prepare your food behind the plexiglass enclosed, open concept sushi prep counter.  Maki options are more limited than other sushi places. You won’t find Dragon Rolls or Rainbow Rolls here. Unique to Cho San is that they offer is a premium chirashi box and omakase takeout box $100 each. Although steep in price for a takeout order, this includes otoro and similar premium fish.  We selected a ready made sashimi tray $28 from the fridge and ordered a spider salmon roll $8; which was probably meant to read Spicy salmon roll as there wasn’t soft shell crab as one would expect in a spider roll. The sashimi was really really fresh! The scallop and shrimp were deliciously sweet. The spicy salmon roll was made with what looked like brown rice, but more likely it was seasoned. As such it didn’t hold together as well and grains of rice fell off the maki as we picked pieces up from the tray.  For you uni lovers, they have a great selection of uni from Japan, Vancouver and Boston. Their soy sauce comes in cute little bottles rather than packets. It is really exciting to have another high quality place to buy fresh, high quality sashimi in Markham and we will definitely come back for more!

Went around 6:30 pm to check out the place. Store is very clean and minimalistic.  No extra cost for slicing sashimi. Chef was very helpful and grabbed what I wanted from the fridge. Will definitely come here again, and also suggest this place to my friends/family!  Would imagine over the weekend the wait times would be much longer for slicing/prep

Tried Cho San before they had a dine in option and their sushi was delicious! Was so fresh and presentation of the chirashi was gorgeous. The person assisting with scheduling and delivery was very accommodating on a high traffic night. Can't wait to try their dining in!

Best Sushi in town! The fish here is fresh and of premium quality and you can taste the difference between this and your typical sushi join around town. The rice in the sushi is not your typical white Japanese rice. That extra little bit of flavour from the rice gives each piece an extra dimension.  Although I like the option of a la carte where you get to choose your own piece of fish for the chef to prep, my favourite is the chirashi. So many flavours in each bite.  For the price and the quality, this is as good as it gets. This is the only place I'll be getting sushi from now on.

Sashimi Tray + Botanebi, Tako & Salmon Sashimi  Nice presentation and the tray was packed beautifully in Japanese style with fabric. That makes the whole experience so special.  Love the high quality of the sashimi. Great that they put assorted premium fish in a platter for people like us who wanna have a little bit of everything.  Other then the sashimi tray, we also got extra Salmon, Octopus and Botan Shrimp. It’s amazing they offer slicing service to the fish.  The only thing I would complain about is they sliced the octopus a bit too thick. When we were the only customers at that time, no need for them to rush like cutting it in big chunks as BBQ pork. LOL Other than that it’s a great luxurious enjoyable sashimi meal.

The most ginormous Otoro roll I've ever had! Saw it my friend's IG, and couldn't resist ordering some for ourselves for tonight's dinner! I've actually had their Omakase Box $100 before and the sushi and fish was really fresh! Highly recommend ^^  For dinner, we ordered: Big Otoro Roll $90 Sashimi Tray $30 Tamago Egg Omelet $6  I DM'd Cho San Sushi on IG to order the Big Otoro Roll or you can call in to place your order. The sashimi tray and tamago were pre-packaged and ready to go in the self-serve fridges... just help yourself and pay at the counter!

Best take out sushi we've had in Toronto so far. We pre-ordered 2 omakase sets for NYE. No waiting in lines, we just popped into the spotless shop, and the staff had our order ready for us. They also appeared to have some very nice looking uni available for sale in their fridges.  Every piece was good, standouts for me were the ebi, uni and ika. Normally these pieces are so mediocre at other Toronto shops. It is extremely hard to get quality uni in Toronto. Prospective sushi enthusiasts should note that the chef uses are much higher amount of vinegar in the shari, however I find this quite refreshing, as it is similar to what I have enjoyed at top sushiya in Japan.  Will I be returning? Absolutely.

I’m very disappointed with my experience at Cho San Sushi. For an omakase box at a $100 price point, I did not expect to see human hair inside my nigiri. I called in but the management only assured me that it was still safe to eat. I admit some of the sushi pieces were fresh and delicious but how could I be comfortable finishing the rest of my sushi? I’ve never experienced something like this at other sushi spots with a similar price range. They offered no sort of compensation ie. partial refund.  Also, some of the uni in the chirashi box were stinky and . I won’t be returning to Cho San Sushi in the future, and won’t be recommending it to anyone else.

Came at lunch. Not busy. Chef was sloppy and my sushi was expensive and ugly with the roll collapsing on all sides. Also took 20 minutes for two simple rolls when nobody was in the shop. When they can’t make a simple roll properly I can’t trust their $400 platters. Predict this store will fail within a year.

** Review only on walk in visit, no food quality tasted **  Walked by to check out this cute little sushi 'supermarket' and take out place.  Inside is nicely designed, spacious and clean. There is no dine in option available.  There were a lot of employees and sushi chef working at the moment.  According to the kind gentleman, the fridge is like a supermarket where you can pick up what you want to purchase eg. Salmon sashmi whole piece, yuzu, wasabi root etc. He also mentioned that you can have the chef cut for you if needed.  They also offer too quality a la carte sushi options, rolls and party trays.
