Fleurs & Cadeaux se définit comme un établissement japonais dynamique spécialisé dans les sushis artisanaux roulés à la main et les profils de saveurs authentiques. Le menu privilégie des ingrédients marins frais préparés avec une technique précise pour mettre en valeur les textures naturelles et les subtilités saisonnières. La clientèle découvre une sélection rigoureuse de nigiris et de sashimis qui souligne la clarté des poissons de qualité supérieure associés à un riz vinaigré assaisonné. Cet espace fonctionne comme une destination dédiée aux amateurs de savoir-faire culinaire traditionnel axé sur l'intégrité des produits importés du Japon. L'environnement intérieur facilite une interaction directe avec le processus de préparation, en maintenant une attention stricte sur l'équilibre entre la présentation esthétique et la substance culinaire. Chaque élément reflète une adhésion rigoureuse aux techniques fondamentales de la culture sushi classique.
Fleurs & Cadeaux est largement reconnu comme une destination de style izakaya japonais exceptionnelle à Montréal, appréciée pour son atmosphère authentique, sa sélection experte de sakés et ses ingrédients frais de haute qualité. Les convives soulignent fréquemment le canard mariné au miso, les plateaux de sashimis et les udons tantan comme des plats incontournables, recommandant souvent le menu dégustation pour une expérience complète. Bien que le décor et la trame sonore vinyle créent un environnement intime, romantique et animé, certains clients trouvent l'espace restreint et les prix élevés en regard des portions. Bien que la majorité des visiteurs bénéficient d'un service chaleureux, compétent et professionnel, les avis sur le rythme du service, le confort des places et l'attitude du personnel peuvent varier. Dans l'ensemble, cela demeure une adresse hautement recommandée pour ceux qui recherchent une fusion japonaise raffinée et une expérience gastronomique mémorable.
Jack was amazing. We had a terrific time & dinner! The sushi chefs are so talented & make beautiful dishes. & Jack with incredibly knowledgeable with the sakeis. We will be back very soon!
Artful takes on ingredients transform them into sublime bites. The tamago in dashi, vegetable du hour with sesame sauce, seared duck with miso, & holy smokes - the soy sauce ice cream! The sushi is perfect, too.
Sitting at the bar allows for a great view of the chef's techniques. A must for my visits to Montréal.
My wife & I shared the following dishes:
Tsukemono (various pickled veggies) 8/10
Chirashi Sushi (assorted sashimi) 8/10
Miso Duck 9/10
Nanban (fried chicken) 9/10
The place & ambiance are nice, & service was good & efficient, but it simply takes too long between dishes, so you just kind of end up waiting for what's next. Tasty food but too much $ & time spent for what you get.

Delicious food & flavours that really excite the pallet. Everything was delicious, the duck the beef the sushi the chicken the dessert the cocktails wow wow wow - music was too loud I could barely bear the person beside me & was giving a Latin / jazz vibe… would have loved more lounge or lower volume music - other wise great staff & food !! We will be back :)))
I can comfortably say that I ate the best Tuna Sashimi in my life, & I eat a lot of sushi. Everything was great. The only thing I would say is I sat at the bar & the stools were horrible. It was so uncomfortable I had to stand several times during the meal.
Disclaimer: This review is more of a 3.5/5 star than a 4, but I'm giving it a 4 because I would actually still come back just for the sushi.
Pros:
1. Sushi was terrific. Some of the best in the city. & that includes the rice as well, which was phenomenal.
2. The meats were also A1. Though, I hope they weren't cooked sous-vide (that method is being phased out because of microplastic contamination) but I have a suspicion they were. Owner, feel free to confirm. Either way, excellent.
Cons:
1. Seating at the bar (if you're lucky not be facing a literal wall) is uncomfortable for longer than an hour.
2. Plates came out at random. Meat, then sushi, then noodles, then meat, etc. Insulting to the sushi in my opinion.
3. This is one of those devious sharing-plate restaurants that lets you easily rack up a big bill with only a couple of drinks & a few sharing plates without really noticing the total until you get the bill. Caveat emptor. But either way this style of restaurant is fading away, people are tired of sharing & overpaying for small portions.
4. The steak, for example, is far too good to be served on its own without any accompaniment. It's seems really silly. It's a sneaky way to rack up another $30 charge just to get to taste a few slices of beef. But it was good.
5. Some dishes were not well balanced, like the paprika noodles. Extremely cloy in the mouth. The ice cream suffers the same problem: overpowered. It's as if whoever is tasting the food in the kitchen is a heavy smoker or drinker because those dishes were not balanced whatsoever.
6. Last but not least, Fleurs & Cadeaux is peak'Montreal service'. Cold & ironically unfriendly, as if they're doing you a grand favour by letting you in. Fake smiles that disappear the moment they turn away, & they won't bother asking if you liked your food or how the evening is going. Also, a restaurant of this caliber shouldn't let staff dress in tattered Value Village. Again, that classic'ironic' Montreal service that just makes me cringe. This isn't unique to Fleurs & Cadeaux, it's just endemic to this city.
In short, despite the lack of good service & comfort & some issues with some of the dishes, this place cares about quality especially when it comes to the sushi.
Très très bien.
Une adresse que je viens de découvrir, & qui est dans mon quartier.
Pourrait facilement devenir un « go-to » pour un repas simple de nouilles ou une gâterie de TOP sushi!
Loved this place so much that my friend & I went two nights in a row during our recent trip to Montreal. Service was great, atmosphere was hip & cool, & most importantly, the food was amazing. Our favorites were the fried chicken, chirashi sushi, & brownie with red miso salted caramel. Also enjoyed the steak, duck, & tantan udon.
C'était délicieux! Nous étions 2 personnes, en congé d'enfants, & nous avons goûté à 5 plats. Le poulet Nanban & le canard vieilli au miso blanc est un must. Le chirashi sushi est aussi un incontournable (c'est un plat à partager, pour 2 personnes, de différents sashimis). Nous avons pris chacun un drink & une bière. Avec le tip, c'est revenu à 210$
Nous y retourneront assurément.
Incredible! This was a very special meal for my family, & a highlight of our trip to Canada. The food (especially the duck & temaki sushi) was so delicious & uniquely prepared. We enjoyed the atmosphere & the drinks, as well. One of our servers even took the time to show us how to roll the napkins in the shape of roses. A perfect experience.
