The service was incredible, Eric is a great waiter. The atmosphere as well, but there is too much tempura in the b52 & dynamite. Although, the funny maki is amazing!

Le service est impeccable & on se sent très bien à l'intérieur du restaurant. Les serveurs & serveuses sont excellents & connaissent bien leur menu. Néanmoins, pour un restaraunt haut de gamme, je m'attendais à une qualité supérieure des sushis, ce que je n'ai pas eu lors de ma visite. La plupart des sushis étaient corrects. Ce qu'on a beaucoup aimé : le saumon (+++ ça fond en bouche), le hamachi épicé, le unagi dynamite & le lucky maki. Pour le prix payé (entre 10-16$ les 5 morceaux de maki & 10$ pour 2 sashimis), le rapport qualité/prix n'était pas à la hauteur de mes attentes. Peut-être une soirée manquée ? À suivre si je reviens pour essayer lors d'une prochaine occasion.

Très long comme service, pleins d'erreurs de la part du serveur (donne eau plat au lieu de pétillante / servir un verre de vin au lieu de bière/ il nous pas donner les serviettes humides pour les mains/ dépose deux assiettes de service par personne/ menu découvrir spécifiant qu'on préfère les makis ont nous a servi que des sashimis). Facture très élever pour ce que nous avons a l'habitude.

Ce restaurant est mon restaurant préféré, nous y sommes aller une bonne dizaine de fois & c'est le pire service que j'ai eu.

Got the omakase (tasting menu) here. While the food was generally good & the value is unbeatable, I feel like the flavours were not very balanced for some of the dishes. The flavour profile here leans heavily towards sour & zesty. There's a lot of citrus/yuzu & balsamic sauces used. It worked for the early salads & appetizers, but got exhausting towards the middle & I couldn't wait for the sushi for a palate reprieve. My favourite non-sushi dish was the wagyu, which really stood out for its umami & perfectly cooked rareness, although the thick bunch of carrots felt a bit excessive. When the sushi arrived, it did not disappoint. There was a variety of sashimi, rolls & traditional sushi. All were amazing & probably worth the price of the omakase on their own. My favourite was probably the pair of fried makis! Service was good & started quickly but slowed down A LOT the dinner crowd poured in after 7. Come early if you want prompt service & their full attention.

Tout est délicieux comme d'habitude.
Les lucky maki semblent avoir beaucoup de riz ce qui rend le maki lourd & dilue le goût du centre. Autrement excellent !

Meilleur restaurant de sushis en ville, ça vaut le prix.
Le poisson est tellement frais qu’il fond dans la bouche. Essayez le Funny maki!

Sushi moriawase was not fresh. The sashimi pieces were dry & unpalatable. Quite disappointed. I expected better for the price. The maki roll, however, was good.

Quel excellent repas!
Nous avions commandé l'Omakase; dorade en amuse-bouche fraîche dans sa sauce; calmars avec cumquat goûteux; magret de canard parfaitement assaisonné; truite avec un crumble fantastique; puis les nigiris, makis & sashimi, extraordinaires.
Le dessert à la crème & chocolat blanc (gâteau fromage déconstruit) délicieux mais aurait pu être un peu plus copieux.
Service totalement impeccable! Bravo !
On y retournera bien évidemment.

Les poissons sont extrêmement frais. L'omble chevalier, le bar rayé, l'oursin, le caviar de saumon: délicieux.
Nous aurions aimé qu'il soit spécifié quels makis sont cuits; on aime moins.
Le saké froid est très bon, & assez doux pour ceux qui aiment moins, le cocktail Paloma à base de tequila est surprenamment bon.
Le Mille crêpes est un choix sûr. La glace à l'oursin assorti d'un filet d'huile est audacieux mais... sans danger.
Le service est un peu long & il faut faire ses propres choix. L'«Assortiment du chef» est banal, mieux vaut se lancer.
