Delightful culinary experience with excellent & attentive service, many tasty options for non-sushi lovers too. Finish with a crafty sorbet.

One of the most beautiful & cozy restaurants in Montreal. Jatoba is truly a vibe…lush with live plants (all real) & dramatic, oversized vines that make the space feel both intimate & elevated.

The service was outstanding, with an impressive level of attention to detail throughout the entire evening. You can tell they take real pride in the experience they create.

The food was excellent overall. The black cod was good, though I personally found it a touch on the fishy side, & the miso soup was a bit too salty & missing that deep umami richness I was expecting. That said, the boneless chicken wings completely stole the show-unlike anything I've ever tasted before. Absolutely fantastic & worth the visit on their own.

Overall, a stunning restaurant with exceptional service & memorable dishes. I'd definitely return.
