Matsutei Sukiyaki

What is Matsutei Sukiyaki? Perched along Dundas Street West just east of Spadina Avenue, Matsutei Sukiyaki brings communal Japanese sukiyaki and hot pot dining to the edge of Kensington Market and Chinatown. The dining room is clean, casual, and utilitarian, featuring booth seating with tabletop induction burners and a central DIY sauce bar stocked with broths, eggs, and dipping condiments.

Matsutei Sukiyaki Menu & What to Order The core draw is the all-you-can-eat sukiyaki simmered tableside in a classic sweet-savoury dashi-soy broth, perfect for cooking thinly sliced marbled beef, lotus root, enoki mushrooms, and seafood fukubukuro fortune bags. Supplement the boiling pot with made-to-order cooked plates like crispy chicken karaage drizzled with house sauce, savory cheese dumplings, and generous bowls of gyudon beef over rice. Cap off the meal with fried crispy milk curd or a scoop of matcha ice cream.

Know Before You Go Reservations are accepted exclusively for parties of four to twelve; pairs and solo diners are walk-ins only, so expect 20- to 35-minute waits during peak weekend dinner rushes. Street parking along Dundas is limited, making the 505 Dundas streetcar or a quick walk west from St. Patrick subway station your best transit bet. The kitchen serves all day from noon until 11:30 p.m. seven days a week.
