Amazing sushi - Edit
Probably our new favorite place in Toronto! Food is very fresh, tastes so close to what animal they are replacing. They are doing incredible work to show we can have delicious, tasty food without having to eat animals.
Read morePros: Salmon - definitely a must try, Duck as well, Cost is quite reasonable

Fresh - Edit
The fresh ingredients taste very high quality. Perfectly ripe and creamy avocado in the rolls, nice crunchy cucumber. Also the food is ready quickly. It's not mind-blowing sushi like Sushi Momo in Montreal, but I can't complain because Tenon Vegan Sushi is still pretty good. I wish there were more fresh options and fewer mock meat options, but some people really enjoy that, so I understand.

I will travel to 🇨🇦 Toronto specifically for this! - Edit
Honestly the best vegan sushi I've had, other reviewers are correct! ✔️
Read moreI visited the restaurant Tenon Sushi on Bloor Street.
FOOD:
Salmon Roll ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My non-vegan partner agreed it’s amazing and he can’t tell how they made it look and taste like salmon!
Dynamite Roll ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The sauce made it amazing and without it the roll is good just ok.
Vegan Chicken Skewers ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When I say it is good let me tell you I ordered seconds of their vegan chicken skewers two days in a row and only regret not having more time to explore even more items on the menu.
Next time I'm in Toronto i'll be visiting the other of their two locations.
Pros: Excellent flavor, quality food, Casual dining restaurant, comfortable, Non-vegan friendly
Cons: The only negative is it’s not available in my city

Large menu with mock meat sushi rolls - Edit
We ordered the sushi pizza (crumbed deep-fried rice with a creamy salad on top) and the golden roll with soy crabmeat topped with mango.
Read moreThe food tasted fine but I didn't have a mind-blowing experience like other reviewers. I wasn't inspired to try more sushi given the entire page of special rolls are quite similar: tempura soy crab or prawn featured in most of them and most rolls are topped with BBQ sauce. There were a few with soy chicken or beef but these were inching towards $20 for 8 pieces (including tax). The crab itself had little flavor and was mostly a spongy texture. The place also smelled strongly of fried oil. Good sushi, but not the best I've ever had.
They do have a large menu offering Thai and Chinese dishes, so there's a little something for everyone. Service was lovely.

I've been vegan for 4 years and sushi is one of the only things I miss from my omnivore days. I'm from Massachusetts and there's no vegan sushi spots like this around, so coming here was such a treat!

Just wow - Edit
I don’t even have words for how amazing this place is. Pre V I was a HUGE sushi eater and this exceeded every hope and dream for sushi I could have imagined. Everything was so delicious and thought out, the service was so fast and the place is very authentic. You write your order on a sheet of paper and within 15 minutes your food arrives. I want to bed saying I never wanted to see sushi again (because I ate SO much), but I woke up rethinking what I said 😂
Read moreHonestly if you’re in Toronto and you have a chance, you HAVE to check them out!
Pros: All vegan , Delicious , Fast friendly service

my favourite restaurant in the world. - Edit
Toronto has a lot of vegan restaurants and also a lot of non-vegan restaurants with surprisingly good vegan menus - but no one can replace tenon.
Read moreTenon has a huge variety of sushis, I've been here so much, ordered takeout so much, that I won't bore you with the details, but if you like sushi, you will like this place. Which sushi one prefers is probably a matter of personal taste but everything is always served with consistent thought and quality - at both locations in Toronto (though I frequent downtown location more). I have never had a single thing here that wasn't done well.
The sushi is not "authentic" in the sense that well, most japanese places won't have so many types of vegan sushi. So they do apply their own interpretation to the cuisine, but it is very delicious.
The prices are also unbelievably good for so much creativity.
Pros: Great extensive menu., Many vegan sushi options., Accessible prices for quality and quantity of food

Would choose differently - Edit
I wasn’t particularly impressed by the flavour of the soy crab or prawn but they were prepared and cooked well. Presentation was nice and tea was offered when sitting in. The fish alternatives that I was curious about lacked flavour so I would recommend sticking to the vegetable based dishes! Asparagus Maki etc. Quite a few delivery drivers come through the door so this seems like more of a takeaway kind of place.
Read morePros: Options , Range of Prices, Free Tea
Cons: Fish Alternatives

Delicious! - Edit
There were three of us (two non-veg), and we all loved what we ordered. We all had non-sushi dishes: yellow curry, peanut tofu, and broccoli beef. Rice was not included with any of these and had to be ordered separately.
Read moreWe wanted separate bills but a single bill was automatically brought to us. We requested separate bills after that and this was accommodated but it was time consuming.
UPDATE: I went back again and ordered a curry. It came with different veggies from what was indicated in the menu. As I wasn't keen on a carrot and potato curry I brought this up and they were fairly slow to respond. Also you need to order rice separately.

Would have preferred to visit in person - Edit
We ordered from here to wind down in our hotel on the last night of vacation. The sushi pizza was awesome- so crispy and delicious. It’s fun to find a vegan sushi place with soy meats, as we don’t really have that in the south. However, I was thrown with how fishy the flavors really were! A nice surprise that I’m sure I will get used to. With it being delivered, it wasn’t as fresh as I’d like to try it next time. The sauce on the spicy broccoli was incredible, and I definitely think that the Super Crunchy would be much better fresh. I just wish there would have been more spicy options to try. Overall, very refreshing and offered new flavors!

Thank God for Tenon - Edit
The title of this review is a bit of a joke. Because the owner of Tenon restaurant chose the name as it can mean "Thank God for...". So the question is, how divine is the food at vegan sushi restaurant "Tenon"?
Read moreBefore I give you my opinion, I have to state that I am used to genuine Japanese food and that I did order somewhat different food than usual. My starter was miso soup and it tastes just like miso soup as served in Japan, except for the fact that this one is vegan. The amount of tofu and seaweed is minimal, but the miso soup certainly tastes good.
After reading many positive reviews about the vegan fried duck, I ordered the "duck special". It does indeed look like meat, so before I ate I verified with the waitress once more that there is no dead animal inside. Having never eaten a dead duck, I can only say that this has an interesting taste with a crunchy outer layer and "something" soft inside.
As the duck special wasn't a very filling meal, I ordered a seaweed salad to finish the meal. It was expensive and very simple: just a big pile of seaweed and no variation at all. That's not a "seaweed salad", that's seaweed!
In conclusion: is Tenon divine? No, it is not. It is reasonably good Japanese food and reasonable prices. The thing to be truly thankful for is the fact that it's all vegan.
Pros: more than just sushi, all vegan!
Cons: medium quality ingredients
