The service is extremely terrible. We stood at the entrance for more than twenty minutes without anyone asking how many people we had or whether we had a reservation, & no one informed us that walk-ins were no longer being accepted. We only found out after asking others in line, who actually had a reservation but still waited over ten minutes past their scheduled time. During our wait, a waitress walked straight past us to greet a group behind us, seated them without saying a single word to us, & never came back to explain the situation. It felt as if customers without reservations were not even worth acknowledging. & we actually had tried calling about twenty minutes before arriving to make a reservation, but no one answered the phone. Terrible service, if you don't get a chance to make a reservation ahead of time, just don't go.

Best all you can eat sushi in mtl, my personal faves are the pork ribs & salmon sashimi, I enjoyed my experience & I will definitely go back when I have the chance. Price is within the average range for an AYCE sushi in mtl & quality is outstanding

For the high price & under the guise of'all you can eat' I would have preferred to get what was ordered. The servers & kitchen staff did not make this happen. They brought about half of the correct options.
Unfortunately the food was very good but getting the wrong orders & being offered no compensation or even admitting fault at the end of the night ruins any chance of returning or recommending this place to anyone

Très bon sushi, malheureusement le service n'y était pas. Malgré que les plats arrivent vite les employés bourdonne tout autour afin de livrer rapidement les commandes exécuter par téléphone. Efficace peu être mais laisse place à un détachement avec le service. Exemple j'ai sélectionné une bière sapporo 16oz j'ai reçu une unibroue, j'ai tout suite avertie & elle ne corrige pas me montre mon numéro de table avec un écriture asiatique & me dit c'est bien ce que tu a commandé. Le tout en anglais bien sûr. Partout sur le site il y a un prix enfant, sur ma facture je vois qu'il me charge adulte même si ma fille a seulement pris une soupe & 8 morceaux. Je leur montre leur propre publicité, elle me répond dans un anglais impatient, c'est quoi sont âge, je répond 10 ans, elle me répond le prix c'est moins de 10 ans. Pour tout ses raisons je vous recommande le Hiden Fish tout prêt, avec un service & une qualité de produit tout à fait en cohérence avec leur prix. À volonté, certainement pas le service.

One of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had.

From the moment we walked in, the owner's attitude was cold, dismissive & unnecessarily aggressive. Instead of feeling welcomed, we felt like we were bothering her just by being there. Simple questions were met with eye rolling & sarcastic responses.

Running a restaurant is stressful, I get it. But there is absolutely no excuse for speaking to customers with disrespect & hostility. Hospitality is part of the business. If you clearly hate dealing with people, this is the wrong industry & you should let your team run the place.

The food was decent, but no meal is worth being treated like an inconvenience. I will not be coming back, & I would not recommend this place to anyone who expects basic courtesy.

The food was really good & everything tasted fresh. The service was decent & the place itself was nice.
However, I didn't like that the tip was forced & there was no option to change the amount. I believe tipping should be up to the customer, & being unable to adjust it left a bad impression.
Overall, good food, but the mandatory tip policy is something to be aware of.

Très mauvais service. Nous avons dû attendre plus de 45 minutes pour avoir une table. La personne en charge ne parle pas français, alors que nous sommes à Québec
