Flyjin serves predominantly Japanese fare but also explores flavours from China, Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. The 4-star dining experience has two services, one at 7pm and a second at 9:30pm. At 11pm, there is a metamorphosis of sound, lighting, service and music that redefine Flyjin as a bar. Flyjin has somethingLe Flyjin is a chic Asian Brasserie located in the heart of Old Montreal. Sophisticated and mysterious, it has a unique concept offering on the one hand a restaurant with Asian influences of about one hundred places, and also a vibrant bar where you can find a wide selection of Japanese whiskey, sakes, wines and exclusive Japanese beers. At the stroke of 11pm, the Flyjin transforms itself completely to take on the colors of the night and to welcome a crowd of clubbers in the its underground space. There is a metamorphosis of lighting and sound while the furniture is subtly moved around to allow for a dance floor that will soon be packed with people. From Wednesday to Saturday, Flyjin has much to offer foodies as well as night owls who like being surprised at every visit and who enjoy the beautiful, the good and the new. Whether as a group, a couple or alone, go with the flow knowing fully well that here, things are not always as they seem.
Flyjin is described as a stylish spot with consistently excellent food, strong, creative drinks, and a vibe that moves from chic dinner to lively club. The sushi and Asian inspired dishes are frequently praised, with favorites such as Oba Maki, toro nigiri, avocado crispy rice, and shrimp tempura roll standing out. The service is often highlighted as attentive and friendly even when busy, though some nights note high prices and a generally crowded, clubby atmosphere that can affect the experience. The atmosphere is repeatedly called energetic and fun, with a DJ and friendly bartenders contributing to a night that feels polished yet bustling, so arriving early for dinner is advised. A few experiences mention rude door staff and pricey drinks, and some lines to get in on weekend nights can be long, but overall reviews converge on Flyjin delivering great food, great drinks, and a memorable night out.
We went to Flyjin for a birthday dinner & honestly, it exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was incredible, & the service was truly something else. The staff made the whole night feel special.

Very bad experience 😕 i am not sur i recommend this place was my first & last time the service was awful, like from the entrance we had to prouve the reservation cause we were 4 guys, normally we did expect a bit of respect & the waitress the lady take the time to ask what we need not to other in our place 😀 like sorry i do pay so i do ask for what i want, really i didn't expect this for this poeple, usually i go to lavoute & the day i did said ok maybe i can discover an other place nope thanks, eh the team try to smile
Refused entry without bottle service as a group of 3 guys - the girls walked straight in. Girls in hot pants running the bar without experience. Underpouring alcohol & doing shots with their friends whilst customers wait. Overrated & underperforming. I've been a couple of times now hoping the experience would be different - it never happened. Don't waste your time or money here.
Had such a fun night at Flyjin! The food was honestly so good & everything looked beautiful. The vibe is amazing - perfect spot for dinner. The music level is perfect so you can still talk & hear each other during diner.
Also, special shoutout to the hostess that made the experience even better, we had the best time - definitely going back!

Incredible food & ambiance! Some of the best amaretto sours & espresso martinis. The quality & taste of the food across every dish makes it impossible to go wrong. Service & whole experience made for a great evening, we will definitely be back.
Flyjin was such a vibe. We did a full course from the menu & everything was sooo good.
The avocado crispy rice was my fave, you have to try it if you go. Service was amazing even though it was super busy, & my cocktail was perfect (strong in the best way… didn't even need a second one).
Flyjin à Montréal le propriétaire a eu un comportement innaceptable de misogyne. Mon amie a parler au propriétaire avec une discussion banale & il a regarder son ami en lui disant qu'elle ne devait plus lui adresser la parole. Sérieux voir qu'en 2025 des comportements degueulasse de même existe. Je n'encouragerais jamais cette établissement. D'ailleurs il c'est vanté d'être propriétaire & lui a dit qu'il l'expulsait de l'établissement 😂 pauvre radin

The food & drinks were absolutely INCREDIBLE (highly recommend the spicy avocado crispy rice & shrimp tempura roll!) & Madeline was the most attentive & sweet server we've had in Montreal. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
The service for our reservation was excellent! Every meal came fast & we were served very professionally. The vibe was really nice, & if you come earlier, around 20-20:30, it wont be too crowded for diner. We really loved the asian food, especially the Oba Maki sushi, it is a must, if you come to Flyjin.

50$ deux verres de gin, 0 alcool à l'intérieur, le serveur essaie de boire dans nos verres & assumes qu'il n'y a pas d'alcool dans un, il ajoute un peu de gin, dans 1 mais pas l'autre! Quel vol
Unfortunately, not my best experience in Montreal.
I arrived around 10 p.m. for a staff Christmas party & was met with a very rude doorman who questioned me excessively, to the point where it felt uncomfortable. I eventually stopped answering & asked my friend to come get me instead.
The ambiance inside was nice-very club-style-but the drinks were extremely expensive. Two gin & tonics cost me $40 + tips. This place is fancy, but the experience (especially at the door) didn't live up to that image.
