    Our server Jess was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped make our night fun while also training a new server. They were unfortunately out of the sesame donuts - but other than that the food was delicious!

    Nourriture brûlée et pas japonaise ( a part du gâteau qui était excellent); serveuse incompréhensible, impolie, après avoir reçu du pourboire AUCUN MERCI! pas surprenant vu son attitude dès le début. Prix ridiculement élevés pour les pommes frites de COSTCO et Dumplings de SUPER C. Aucun fruit- légume frais. Déception totale! car attendait de vivre une expérience « Japon » à mon anniversaire!

    Since we came in the afternoon, we were given a "transition" menu that only had a few items. They were overpriced and the portions were tiny. I paid $100 and neither my girlfriend nor I were full by the end of the meal. Also the green tea leaves were burnt. Would not come back, the price is not worth the amount of food you get.

    Overall it's absolutely a good restaurant. The meal was super delicious there. One thing I experienced there was that when I ordered "another plate of french fries", they served 2 plates of french fries instead, which was kind of astonishing and confusing(I finished all those french fries afterall Jesus Christ😂😂)

    Nous avons bien apprécié le service d’Éric. Il nous a bien guidé dans notre choix du saké. Il connaît les nuances entre les différents sakés et il le communique simplement pour nous les néophytes. La nourriture était délicieuse et les portions généreuses. Le service rapide et courtois. Nous reviendrons sans aucun doute. Ce fut une belle découverte lors de l’événement Mtl à table.

    Went for dinner with my friend. This was our first time and it really check many boxes for us. My Miso soup was cold (our waiter did comp the bill, which was nice). The sushi was tasty but very small portions. Our waiter was pleasant. All in all it was just ok.
