· Authentic Japanese restaurant, Fried chicken takeaway, Japanese curry restaurant
· St Lawrence
Tiny Japanese street-food spot for crispy karaage, takoyaki, and curry with strong value and limited seating; best for takeout.
Why this grade
Gushi delivers consistent excellence in what it is: a compact, affordable Japanese street-food counter with exceptional crispy karaage and satisfying curry. Strong value for central Toronto pricing and friendly service make it worth a visit, though occasional portion and texture variability and cramped seating prevent a higher grade. Best experienced as a takeout destination for fried chicken lovers.
One caveat: Regular size can feel small; multiple diners recommend upsizing
