Bistro Isaka is widely praised for high quality Japanese fare, with sushi described as fresh and well rolled, great value for what is offered, and a strong range of dishes including soups, takoyaki, udon and tempura. Several reviewers highlight generous portions and reasonable prices, with some calling it the best sushi in LaSalle and noting the kitchen's cleanliness and stylish decor. Reservations are sometimes required or at least recommended, and on some visits customers were turned away for lack of seats despite online information not indicating a reservation requirement. Service is described as efficient and friendly on some visits, though other reviews mention cold reception and a less inviting dining room with maintenance issues such as spider webs on lamps. Overall, the dining experience is seen as highly favorable for food quality and value, with a few inconsistent dishes like some grilled items that were overcooked or rubbery and varying takes on the ambiance.
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!
Really good price for lunch. Took the udon soup & it came with mix tempura & 5 piece sushi. One of the nigiri, the fish was a bit tough but otherwise really good value for the price.
Accueil & service assez froids, salle peu attrayante, toiles d'araignées sur les lampes au-dessus des tables.
Certains plats généreux (calmar grillé & légumes grillés). Calmar caoutchouteux, dont certains morceaux immangeables. Morue fraîche, mais manque de cuisson au centre.
Légumes grillés savoureux, cuisson bien réalisée. Poulet teriyaki pas vraiment grillé, un peu trop cuit, mais garnitures de champignons, oignons & sauce délicieuse.
Sushis corrects, sans plus.

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.
Stopped in for a quick bite & was very happy with my meal. Had the Pork Ramen & some Sushi & it really hit the spot. It was really cold out today & the Ramen was absolutely delicious & warmed me right up. The broth was rich & the pork had just the right amount of fat. The sushi was lightly fried in tempura & tasted great Quick & friendly service Will go back for sure
All I can say is, wow. Hands down best sushi I've had in Montreal so far. Hidden gem in an IGA parking lot, it's so unassuming. We were blown away by the quality of ingredients. The dine-in service was very timely & they were slammed with takeout orders. All for an excellent price. Telling all my friends about this spot :)
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!

Je suis allée, car on m'a recommandé, mais rien de spécial & pas trop goûteux. Commande pour emporter - j'ai dû la récupérer après 1 heure (la condition de la madame au téléphone), donc très lents. Rendue dans le bistro, il y avait 3 tables avec des clients seulement. Aussi, trop cher pour la quantité & la qualité des sushis.
Absolutely love this restaurant, I order from there on an almost weekly basis. Staff is super kind & accommodating. Food is always really good. Definitely the best sushi in Lasalle/ Verdun area. Also love their ramen & gyoza!
This sushi is so ridiculously good We are lucky to have this option in LaSalle I've tried every sushi place within 3km & this is easily the best Recommend the sushi combo plates
Absolute best Japanese restaurant I have ever tried in 30+ years....incredibly fresh & delicious fish, try the hamachi, uni, sake or scallop & you will never be able to eat sushi anywhere else
They Moved from Downtown to Lasalle. Best sushis & Udon. Real Japan expérience. //aux Meilleurs sushis en ville, ambiance très calme, bien centralisé pour une marche sur le MontRoyal ou show au centre-ville
Hidden gem. Run & owned by local Japanese family. A neighborhood hood restaurant. While not an extensive sushi list what they do serve is first & foremost fresh , affordable , good quality sushi. The "must tries" here are when you try the daily specials & their authentic Japanese tapas style menu listings : spinach , burdock root , agadashi eggplant , chicken balls , torched salmon to name a few . The non sushi menu items are scrumptious making this place enjoyable for all. Easy parking. Casual & affordable . Family , date night or get together for whatever the occasion.
