   10* to Paul's Summer Cocktails! We've praised the new cocktails list before, but our gratitude grew last night with every sip; you don't expect creative drinks of this quality at a regular Japanese restaurant. Still, there is nothing regular about Jabistro. Last night was not exception. Once again, Andrei opted for ala cart just because he craves a full portion of the lobster miso, which is a must try, and the wagyu carpaccio. Olga and I settled for the lighter $95 version of the pre-set and loved every bite of it. I tried substituting the sushi for sashimi before, but this time stuck with the originals and was rewarded with melting in the mouth torched sushi marvels. In the end, Jabistro does everything with absolute mastery, from the home-made soya souses to creative pallets of each dish, under leadership of esteemed Japanese trained chefs! Kudos to all of you who made last night so wonderful!

   We opted for the dinner tasting menu. Everything was fantastic, especially the service. Although it was relatively expensive, we still flat like we got great value for our money.

   Fantastic birthday party! Instead of dinner pre-set we chose our favourite lobster miso, special uni hand-roll, which is a must try, wagyu carpaccio and large sashimi to share. Our friends added several sublime torched sushis, it was a feast! Thank you Sophie and the team for great service and a beautiful candle presentation:) last but not least the sprits cocktails are so wonderfully refreshing!

   Paul's amazing sprits cocktails were sublime, so refreshing in the warming spring. Three of us enjoyed an updated pre-set dinner menu at $125, while Andrei preferred ala-cart. His fave lobster miso was a bit bigger than ours in pre-set, yet we treasured every sip. Sashimi selection was insanely fresh, putting most other sushi places to shame. Mouthwatering torched sushi and handrolls filled us up very quickly; with that in mind, pre-set is a great value. We failed to try Andrei's wagyu carpaccio, but he claimed this carpaccio is the best in town. Sophie's service was second to none, thank you Jabistro team!

    Dear Nana-san and Riku-san, I hope this message finds you both well. I recently had the pleasure of dining at JaBistro in Toronto, Ontario at 5:00 pm on Tuesday, April 1, 2025. As a Vietnamese-born Canadian citizen currently living in Mississauga, Ontario, I was thrilled to experience such a memorable evening at your beautiful restaurant. From the moment I arrived, Nana-san provided exceptional service with warm hospitality and attentiveness throughout the dinner. Every course from the Dinner Tasting Menu was beautifully presented and exceeded expectations. The lobster miso soup was rich and comforting, and the premium sashimi platter showcased the chef’s masterful selection of fresh, high-quality fish. The aburi featuring pressed salmon, ebi, and the signature Jabistroll offered delightful flavours and textures. The nigiri course was absolutely outstanding, especially the maguro trio (akami, chu-toro, and o-toro), uni, and the wagyu topped with foie gras — a truly luxurious experience. Ending with the yuzu sorbet with sake jelly provided a perfect, refreshing finish. I also appreciated Riku-san’s thoughtful message through OpenTable following my visit. It reflects the genuine care and dedication of the entire JaBistro team. Thank you once again for delivering an unforgettable dining experience. I look forward to returning to JaBistro in the future and will certainly recommend your restaurant to others. Wishing you continued success and all the best. Sincerely, Quoc Phan (Quoc-kun)
