Sushi in the Annex

I'm meeting a friend for sushi in the Annex, and I need a suggestion.

Never been impressed with Sushi on Bloor.

Sushi Couture seemed to drench everything in gobs of mayo and be overpriced for what we received when we went a few months ago. Obviously not everything has mayo, but I'm not sure we'll go back unless really persuaded.

Any other possibilities? Wish to stick in the area, thanks.

    Solo Sushi Bekkan is a great option on Grosvenor, and not too far from the Annex.

      I persuaded my friend to hop in my car and we went to Lola, a sushi place south of Eglington on Yonge.

      Decided against the Annex, given the best option (Couture) was one we'd rejected.

      Still open to hearing otherwise.

        I would have driven down to Yuzu, closer than yonge/Eg, no?

          Thought not in the annex, for the closest sushi, I'd add a second vote for Yuzu. And the fish at Japango is still way above average for the city. Also not in the Annex.

          Went to Sushi Couture last night. I had the chirashi sushi, which is an assortment of the freshest fish, some seared, some raw and tamago arranged on a bed of sushi rice. It was $13.99 with soup and salad and I'd say it was worth the price. I've had better but at higher prices (the most recent example being Japango)

            Yonge/Eg is my hood, which is why we went all the way up there. Lola's our neighbourhood sushi.

            But I'll remember Yuzu. Thanks.
