  • Toronto has the best laneway sushi

    March 22, 2025 · View original


    I love Toronto. It’s my favorite city. And every so often, there will be a moment that explicitly reminds me why I love it so much. That happened yesterday when I walked down a laneway off College Street to find a somewhat hidden sushi spot called Oroshi Fish Co. Right away I was delighted by the combination of the small street and the mix of uses housed on it. But then, I walked inside to find two guys manhandling the carcass of an enormous bluefin tuna, and that’s when I really said to myself, “man, Toronto is awesome.” The sushi is some of the best you’ll find in the city.

    Here are a few photos.
