Walked by here on our way to another location and thought to give it a shot. All I can say is, the sashimi was gluten free and so was the rice and that itself was perfect. The food was so good I was in amazement. I’m only writing a review so I remember to go back!

Came here with my family. It was a really cute place !! I loved the sushi and everything else we ordered. It was all really fresh. We also got free spring rolls that were delicious 😋. If I visit Ottawa again, I’ll for sure get some sushi again !

Cozy little sushi spot that’s family-owned and run by a lovely mother-daughter duo. The place is small but has a warm, welcoming vibe. They offer daily specials during the week, which is a nice touch.

I tried both the Tuna Love and Salmon Love combos—wouldn’t recommend the tuna, but the salmon was absolutely amazing and worth coming back for. The gyoza tasted like they were cooked from frozen, not house-made, which was a bit of a letdown.

Overall, I’d definitely return just for that Salmon Love combo. Great little hidden gem if you’re in the mood for quality salmon sushi!

I adore sushi and the fact that I can eat most of it even with the Ménière’s, I adore it even more! I have my favorite place, although today… my favorite place was outranked by On Rice, a cozy family owned Korean & Japanese place in downtown Ottawa. Not only was the quality and price worth it but we also received a surprise “on the house ☺️” note accompanied with 4 delicious spring rolls.
The sushi was so good we completely missed taking pictures. It was amazing and the spicy tuna was the most delicious I have ever had! Finally a true “spicy” tuna😍
Thank you On Rice for the treat! We will definitely be back soon.

Have ordered sushi from here a few times now for delivery – excellent quality and a really great value. Seriously does not disappoint and is a real hidden gem for sushi in Ottawa. Can’t speak to the Korean food as I haven’t tried that (yet!), but their kimchi is also phenomenal.
