Toronto's Financial District & Bar Strip is a Must-Try! 🍣✨
Tucked away in downtown Toronto's bustling financial district and bar scene, The Haam is the sister restaurant of the beloved Japanese spot Saku—and after having it bookmarked forever, I finally got to try it! Specializing in handcrafted sushi with a Mexican taco twist, this fusion combo is an absolute winner 👌🏼 The interior is sleek and Japanese-inspired, with a wall of twinkling lights that creates the perfect moody ambiance in the evenings—total vibes. Must-Try Dishes: 🍣 [Salmon Tataki] Seared salmon so fresh and buttery, it practically melts in your mouth. The truffle oil drizzle is insanely aromatic, and the pop of red tobiko (fish roe) takes it to the next level. 🌮 [Taco - Soft Shell Crab] A MUST-ORDER! Soft-shell crab tacos aren’t common, and these are next-level. Each taco comes with a whole crispy fried crab 🦀, layered with creamy avocado and tangy red onions—texture heaven. 🦞 [Lobster Grande] Their signature special roll is a showstopper! 🍣 Topped with salmon and stuffed with fried lobster, avocado, and crab meat, each piece is huge and filling—you’ll be stuffed before you know it. Vibes & Service: The staff were super friendly and gave great recommendations 👌🏼 ⚠️ Heads up: The soft-shell crab tacos and lobster roll are dinner-only items! The lighting is dim (very moody date-night energy), making it perfect for chatting, romantic dinners, or casual drinks. Lively but not too loud—just right. Next time, I’m trying their lychee sangria or cocktails 🍹—sounds like the perfect pairing! 📍 The Haam #Toronto #TorontoLife #TorontoEats #FoodieAdventures #TorontoRestaurants #LifeInToronto #TorontoFood #OC #StudentLife #Food #JapaneseCuisine #HiddenGems #Sushi #GlobalEats
