Akami Sushi

What is Akami Sushi? Occupying a storefront at 825 Dundas Street West just east of Trinity Bellwoods Park, Akami Sushi delivers reliable, quality-focused Japanese fare to the local west-end community. The understated dining room keeps distractions to a minimum, featuring simple wooden table seating and an open sushi prep bar. It functions as a relaxed, independently run neighbourhood spot that equally excels at casual dining and rapid-fire takeout orders.

Akami Sushi Menu & What to Order The menu balances everyday nigiri and maki with well-crafted specialty rolls and aburi items. The torched Salmon Oshi Sushi and the signature Akami Roll—a tempura shrimp roll topped with seared tuna, masago, and spicy mayo—are consistently sharp orders. Sizable combination sets like the Salmon Love Combo and the Deluxe Chirashi Don provide dependable value with thick, fresh cuts of fish, while vegetarians can lean on yam tempura maki, avocado rolls, and vegetable gyoza.

Know Before You Go Seating is casual and walk-in driven, making it easy to grab a quick table, though peak weekend dinner hours see steady takeout traffic. The easiest transit route is the 505 Dundas streetcar, which drops steps away at Euclid or Manning Avenue. The shop operates daily from lunch through late evening.
