Sanko Trading Co.

Loved this tiny japenese store. Unfortunately didnt have the japenese kitkat at the time not sure if they carry it. But found matcha cookies, seaweed chips, noodles, sencha tea, pocky sticks!

The perfect place to find authentic Japanese food, dishes, candy, rice crackers and more. Be sure to check out the fun mural on the outside of the store. It's fantastic street art.

Great little Japanese store , lots of bowls and chop sticks along with cups and pots , lots of obscure varieties of food items . Dry goods . Frozen foods , fresh refrigerated goods , some great frozen ramens !! Fun spot to check out , you won’t walk out with nothing and it won’t cost you an arm and a leg !

Cutest Japanese store around. Some things are very overpriced but probably imported directly from Japan so it makes it worth it

Accessible to reach. Wide range of Japanese stuff.

Nice small Japanese store. You can find Umeboshi that has no preservatives, fresh Onigiri, Menma or pickled Bamboo shoot, ceramic Japanese dinnerware, Ramen bowls, Japanese green tea, fresh ramen noodles to make your own Ramen at home, Dango, Daifuku, Japanese snacks.

Amazing store for any Japanese culture enthusiasts. SANKO imports many items from Japan, so you can get real Japanese products here, and they carry a wide selection of products.Some of the prices can be steep, but it is hard to find the items in other stores, so I don't mind paying extra.

Fun little Japanese store, full of authentic Japanese ceramics, all sorts of Japanese snacks, noodle options and ingredients to make your own ramen.

Sanko is truly such a gem. I stopped inside on a whim as I was passing by and was absolutely thrilled by the wide assortment of Japanese imports! They had so much to offer, ranging from chopsticks and utensils, tea sets, mugs, plates and dinnerware, small home trinkets, decor, kitchenware, as well as as a small but lovely assortment of fine teas (and even a grocery area with both commercial and home made foods)! I was absolutely in love with two of their beautiful pink tea sets, and if I hadn’t been travelling with limited space, I would have bought one of them in a heartbeat. As for what I did buy, the shop owners were very kind and helpful when I was attempting to pick out the right sencha green tea blend as a gift for my wife. They offer paper bags with hand drawn calligraphy on them for a very cheap cost, and I noticed that they took the care to choose a bag with the written kanji for “heart” after knowing to whom the gift was for, even though I didn’t request it. It was only a little gesture, but I was genuinely really touched by that and I wanted to mention it. Next time I visit Toronto, I am going to leave space in my suitcase specifically so I can return to Sanko again and buy so much more. Thank you!

I bought three items today and two were either expired or expiring soon.The soba expired 3 months ago and the bonito flakes are expiring next month!Unacceptable
