I enjoyed my experience at Isakaya, the place is small & quiet. The service I received was proffessional & polite, I was served at a decent speed throughout the evening. I was quite happy to get some selection on the alcohol card, alot of sushi place don't serve alcohol & when they do its not always sake either. The ingredients used in the sushis tasted fresh, the grilled calamari was a pleasant surprise & the chicken dumpling we're great. I will be going back to try more items on the menu. The location is very convenient if you have a vehicule, no shortage of parking there guaranteed.

A real hidden gem in LaSalle! ✨🍣✨

The sushi is very fresh & beautifully presented. You can tell the chef puts a lot of care into every piece - from the perfectly cut sashimi to the delicate nigiri & well balanced rolls. Great variety & everything tasted amazing.

One of the best sushi spots in Montreal . Will definitely come back again!💯

I have been coming to this restaurant since looong time ago; when they relocated from avenue parc to Lasalle, which then became too far from me back then & recently I visited twice within the last 2 weeks.

Bottom line, still the same great place & this is the Authentic Japanese restaurant run by Japanese family. To those of you who love sushi saying that you love fried dragon Maki roll with lots of mayo sauce, you may find it blend. You may say you like Japanese food but you don't want to eat raw fish or seaweed you will still find several options here, & one thing for sure I guarantee, for the price & quality you get in this place, it is rare & this is very close to what you can expect to eat in Japan.

You will find variety of fresh fish options for sushi, not just common type of salmon, tuna, crab meat & sweet omelet; you will find mackerel, scallop, squid, yellow tail & etc where you can eat them raw only when they are extremely fresh otherwise you will get sick. (See if you can find them at your all you can eat sushi restaurants). Other dishes including grilled chicken screwers, grilled squid, tuna carpaccio, unagi pie (grilled eel & spinach in a puff pastry with teriyaki sauce), Everything is perfectly seasoned, well prepared, & ultimately, their sushi rice is always perfectly cooked & seasoned. ( had enough of those places with soggy rice & they still roll their maki).

I highly recommend this place & I will still be a repeat customer.

We ordered the 41-piece sushi platter. The sushi was fresh & overall good. A couple of the rolls had cooked fish inside, which wasn't really my preference, but everything tasted fine. Good option if you want a large sushi combo.

First time I went for lunch & loved every bit of my assorted platter. Everything was delicious, superior quality & extremely reasonable price. Second time for supper & we were not disappointed. Each & every sushi was rolled to perfection, fresh & very good as well as the shrimp tempura. We explained that we had a time constraint because we hoped to catch a movie & our waitress did everything possible to work within our timeframe. Can't wait to go back!

I go to this restaurant several times a year when I am craving good quality sushi. Their marinated squid is amazing. Everything is always fresh & the service is good. It is the best sushi restaurants I've been to in Montreal, a real LaSalle gem.

Sushi, a delightful dance of flavors & textures, has a way of winning hearts with its artful presentation & fresh ingredients. It's no wonder that it never disappoints! Each piece is a testament to the skill & creativity of the sushi chef, turning simple rice & fish into an extraordinary culinary experience. Whether it's the vibrant colors or the subtle blend of umami flavors, sushi is a treat that continues to surprise & delight with every order. Enjoy your next sushi adventure!
