" Hajime is without a doubt one of the best sushi places I've been to in Toronto. The flavors were fresh and lively, elevating the traditional sushi experience. I ordered a variety of items from the menu to share with friends, and we were all blown away. The atmosphere was busy yet intimate, ideal for a night out with friends. We left full and happy and can’t wait to come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hajime has become my go-to spot for sushi. Whenever I’m craving fresh, delicious sushi, this is where I end up. The staff remembers my usual order, which makes me feel appreciated as a regular. My favorite is the dragon roll—it’s well-balanced and refreshing. The interior is calming and a pleasant place to unwind after a long day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tasty, satisfying meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing about Hajime from friends, I finally visited and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. The menu had a robust selection to choose from, and while I tried a few different items, the highlight for me was their donburi rice bowl. It was rich in flavors and generously portioned. The place does get crowded, so I suggest going early. The ambiance is simple yet cozy, perfect for a casual night out. Highly recommend their signature dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Phenomenal experience! I dined here with my family for my daughter's birthday and everything was perfect. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We ordered various sushi and I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation. The fish was succulent and perfectly cut, and the miso soup was comforting. My son loved the bento box, declaring it the best meal of the week! The cozy atmosphere made it a special occasion, and we'll be back to celebrate many more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved our dining experience at Hajime! The garlic edamame was just the right amount of flavorful, and the variety on the menu is impressive. My friend and I shared a few different rolls, and they all exceeded our expectations. The staff were accommodating and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. The intimate setting was the cherry on top. I highly recommend trying the salmon sashimi, it literally melts in your mouth! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely little sushi joint! I popped in on a whim, and I was not disappointed. The inside has a warm, cozy feel, and the service was efficient and friendly. I ordered a rainbow roll and some shrimp tempura that were both fantastic. The flavors blended nicely, and everything felt fresh. This is a great addition to the neighborhood, and I am looking forward to returning to try more dishes soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Hajime with a few friends, and we decided to share a mix of their specialty rolls. The presentation was stunning, and each roll had its unique twist! I particularly enjoyed the spicy salmon roll; it had the right amount of kick. Service was friendly and efficient, which I appreciated as we were quite hungry. I will definitely keep coming back to sample more of their creative offerings! " (*Curated Review*)
