L'un des meilleurs restaurants auquel j'ai pu manger à Montréal. Service efficace & amical, nourriture impeccable, autant en bouche que pour les yeux. À essayer & certainement réessayer!

This is a place that's easy to pass by unless you know it's a restaurant. It has an old store front, but is bustling inside with lively atmosphere. There is a "tasting menu", but it really isn't just giving the server a budget (minimum $70 per person) & letting them choose dishes for you. If you're not familiar with Japanese food, this might be the way to go, otherwise it's pretty easy to figure out what you might want to eat. Most of the dishes are quite small, & can be shared by two people. We ordered 9 for 2 adults & 2 kids under 10 & it was just enough. The food was all well-prepared & presented & tasty. My favourite dish was the duck. It was tender & had a nice char. It's also nice to see fresh wasabi at a restaurant instead of horseradish. The servers were very friendly & described each dish, providing recommendations when necessary. If you're expecting to be full, come prepared to spend, but if you want a fun spot with good food & drinks, check this place out. Also, there is a speakeasy-style bar (sans Soleil) attached if you want to continue the evening without having to go far.

I almost don't want to post this review because I don't want too many folks knowing how truly incredible this gem is. TL;DR: Order sake or Champagne & ask for help if you need it. Sea Urchin Mousse, Miso-Aged Duck, Udon Noodles, save room for dessert. Nightcaps at the bar downstairs if it's not too busy. Two of us, no reservation, Monday night. Seated quickly at the bar & then had to take a good 10 minutes to study the beverage menu. The wines are thoughtfully curated with lots of natural, biodynamic & organic selections. Sake & soju selection is thorough & includes a primer of the styles you might not be familiar with. We selected a bottle of Champagne that would carry us through the flavors of dinner & settled on the mousse à l'oursin, légume ohitashi, canard veilli, & the tantan udon. The sea urchin mousse with shrimp chips arrived first & were perfectly light & crispy with much more subtlety of flavor than I usually expect from uni. The vegetables were Swiss chard & cherry tomatoes in a savory broth, cut into perfectly bite sized pieces. Again, strong flavors perfectly tamed into working brilliantly with each other. When the duck arrived I stared at it for a good 30 seconds before I said anything & it's not an exaggeration when I say the taste is nothing short of revelatory. The charred fat cap melted in the same way the gorgeously thin slices of breast did for a bite that was a legitimate journey through fat, the savory miso, & the smallest bitterness of char. I want duck to be this perfect all of the time. It was halfway through the duck when I realized we still ordered noodles & they arrived drizzled with chili crisp. By far the richest of what we ordered, the small bits of nori over top as well as the remnants of our earlier dishes cut the weight of the sauce. Thankfully there were only two options for dessert & we ordered the brownie with a red miso caramel. Beautifully executed it was the perfect sweet bite to finish before we headed downstairs for a nightcap at the very sexy Sans Soleil. I was pretty high on vibes & champagne so details are light at this point but my cocktail was delicious & the orange wine my date had was tasty. All in all one of my top 5 meals ever & I can't wait to come back. No notes.

Nous y avons mangé hier pour la deuxième fois - nous avons choisi le menu dégustation (65$ par personne). Le menu est parfaitement équilibré pour goûter un peu de tout, & chaque plat était délicieux. Le service était vraiment impeccable - chaleureux & efficace. L'ambiance est top, cozy & chic à la fois, parfaite pour une date, surtout au bar. Déjà hâte d'y retourner (cette fois pour le plateau de sashimi!)
