Miku Toronto

October 6, 2025

I celebrated my birthday lunch with friends at Miku Toronto and loved every bite. The dishes were beautifully presented and bursting with flavor—especially the aburi sushi, which was melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The vibe is polished yet relaxed, making it great for a special occasion. Staff were warm and attentive, keeping things seamless without rushing us and adding a nice celebratory touch. Between the fresh seafood, thoughtful plating, and smooth service, it was an unforgettable meal. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make a lunch feel like a celebration.

Dined in for the late autumn kaiseki. Although the menu was an overall disappointment for our anniversary celebration, I will commend the service. Our server was attentive and professional; even offering to move us mid-meal away from a louder party. Cocktails to start were a letdown. The matcha punch tasted like the last sip of an iced matcha latte watered down by its ice. The hamaki was a disappointment; boasting homemade hojicha liqueur, it was unbalanced and the citrus was too high. Next round was safer with an Asahi and highball. The amuse was a great start with a great punch. Texture was great and got me excited for the meal ahead. The sashimi was regretfully dressed with overpowering accompaniments. There was no justice done to the fish, just butchered with overexerting toppings. The appetizer trio was a rollercoaster on loose tracks. The lobster in squash soup was fine and set a fair incline. The scallop was the apex of the trio — beautifully cooked, plump, and paired with complementary additions. The tomato medley and burrata is where the nuts, bolts, and tracks came loose — uninspired, misplaced. The sea dish was great. The salmon was cooked beautifully but the tomato sauce was confusing. Mark was missed by not pairing this with an udon or ramen noodle. This dish required a carb and rice was ordered halfway through to compensate. The sushi felt like a coin toss with some bites outshining the others. The uni sushi was beautiful and its specific highlight was the roasted nori. Overall, the sushi falls into the same trap as the sashimi — beautiful fish being treated as otherwise and putting toppings that should have been 1/4 of the amount, if at all. The quality of the fish should speak for itself, though I do applaud the variety of flavours of the toppings achieved. The land course was fine. The wagyu was great, the jus was beautiful (though I wish they were apart). The onion puree was unnecessary. Surprisingly, the mushroom was the highlight of this dish. The dessert was phenomenal. Think a creamsicle cheesecake — playful, refreshing, and a pick-me-up after two hours of a palate let down plate after plate. For a fall menu, I wish I saw some chestnuts and persimmons, maybe even an warm soup or shinmai (or any rice/noodle in general, aside from the sushi). TLDR: Late autumn fixed menu was disappointing, disjointed, and a whirlwind. Top bites: Salmon (order rice with it), maitake, uni and roasted nori. Come for great service, leave with an appetite for Church’s Chicken across the street.

came with my boyfriend for my birthday a couple weeks ago, and it was a great experience. we were 15 minutes late but they were very understanding and accommodated us right away. the food was great. the sablefish was so buttery, the otoro was so fresh and the wagyu carpaccio was very flavourful, and the matcha opera cake was one of the best desserts i've had in a while. can't go wrong with any of the items. our server took the time to explain certain menu items and always made sure to check in with us without it feeling too overbearing. one minor setback would be our drinks, we ordered the jasmine punch with an extra shot and the pandan daiquiri, but the pandan daiquiri actually came with the extra shot and so our server came back with another jasmine punch that had the extra shot, but the overall drink with the extra shot tasted different from the original one, and so when the receipt came, we saw that we got charged for a jasmine punch, pandan daiquiri and a dillans gin cocktail or something. other than that, the atmosphere, food and service were great! highly recommend coming here for the sushi.

This was my second visit and the food has been average with a couple hits and misses. Unfortunately, the dessert COMPLETELY missed the mark. It tasted like a poor-quality lactose-free ice cream. highly disappointing. The sablefish, however, was excellent and definitely my favourite.

I had the Late Summer Kaiseki Tasting Menu at Miku, and it was perfect from start to finish. Each dish was beautifully presented, thoughtfully crafted, and full of incredible flavour. The wine and sake pairing was spot-on, enhancing every course and making the experience feel even more special. Service was warm and attentive, and the whole evening felt seamless and celebratory. Miku exceeded my expectations—I’d highly recommend this tasting menu to anyone looking for a truly elevated dining experience in Toronto.
