Overall reviews describe Jatoba as a refined Asian fusion destination with outstanding, beautifully presented dishes and fresh sashimi, complemented by a chic, lively ambiance and attentive service. The cocktails and wine pairings are frequently praised, and staff are noted for knowledge and friendliness, making celebrations or date nights feel special. While the experience is consistently described as excellent and worth the price, some comments call out the high cost, occasional slow service or pacing during busy times, and a few notes about uneven service at the bar or in the dining room. The restaurant is often listed among Montreal's best dining spots, with many guests planning a return and appreciating the chef's touches and the care in plating and ingredients. Reviewers also highlight the variety of dishes, the ability to accommodate dietary preferences, and the opportunity to sample many plates in a shared, tasting style, even as a few find acoustics or meal pacing could be improved.
J'adore la fraîcheur des poissons & fruits de mer ainsi que la présentation des plats. Les employés sont courtois, à l'écoute & offrent un excellent service. C'était ma 3ème visite & j'ai déjà hâte à la prochaine fois.
One of my favorite places for top notch Asian fusion cuisine restaurants in Montreal.
We ordered Ha Gao?Sweet & Spicy Chinese Eggplants, Crispy Tofu , Spicy Salmon Tartare , caramel cake & of course the most tasty cocktails. You can tell the chef is very particular on the freshness of the ingredients. Enjoyed the service & the ambience at this place. I will definitely revisit this little gem next time.
Service hors pair, qualité exceptionelle, le chef & co-propriétaire Olivier est venu à notre table présenté le sashimi qui font dans la bouche. Le tout pour finir avec un saké incroyable!
J'ai adoré mon expérience au Jatoba. Le service était impeccable : les serveurs ont su nous suggérer d'excellents plats.
La nourriture était succulente, & même le chef est venu nous saluer, ce qui a ajouté une belle touche personnelle.
J'aime beaucoup ce restaurant : les aliments sont frais, les saveurs sont recherchées, & chaque bouchée est une véritable explosion en bouche !
Je le recommande fortement.

Atmosphère soignée & très agréable;,nourriture raffinée, recherchée; à un niveau supérieur; cocktails d'exception & que dire du service hors pair & extrêmement courtois & réactif de tout le personnel! & le dessert au caramel qui nous tirait presque les larmes aux yeux de bonheur, comme dans le film Ratatouille! 🤣😇Juste Wow! Nous nous sentions dans un lieu d'exception. Une EXPÉRIENCE vraiment des plus agréable. Je recommande & nous y retournerons assurément. Ça vaut chaque dollars dépensés! Merci
The food & drinks were amazing, but the service was disappointing. It wasn't like that on our previous visit. Maybe the server was having a bad day, but at this price, I expect better than mediocre service
Came back in 2025. Super average. Not as good as it used to be. They need to work on sushi… too hot or too cold. To spicy. Super average.
Old review
Been a long time since we have been back, but will not be long next time. Service food & ambiance was top notch. Really enjoyed the seat at the bar in the garden we had. The sushi was some of the best we have ever had.
Une merveilleuse soirée chez vous, avec des mets exquis & un service extraordinaire. Merci pour tout !!!!
