Review Summary

Jun I is widely recognized as a premier destination for high-quality sushi in Montreal, celebrated for its fresh ingredients, artistic presentation, and attentive service. Many diners praise the Omakase experience and specialty rolls, noting that the sophisticated flavors and unique textures justify the premium price for special occasions. While the vast majority of guests describe their visits as exceptional and memorable, some recent reviews point to inconsistencies in food quality, slower service intervals, and a perceived decline in ambiance. Despite mixed feedback regarding pacing and pricing, the restaurant remains a top recommendation for those seeking an elevated and authentic Japanese dining experience in the city.

Had the Omakase. Sashimi truly melts in your mouth. Delicious & wonderful service. It was expensive but at least you get quality 🍣

The service is good, but the food is disappointing. The Omakase tasting menu is 90$ per person so I had high expectation, but turns out the food doesn't stand out from other normal sushi restaurants (price range around 30$ per person). What frustrated me most is the whole environment. As an expensive Japanese sushi restaurant with tasting menu, the chopsticks are disposable. I mean, can you imagine a steakhouse gives its customers plastic knife & fork? Also, it was super noisy in the back & the background music is just too loud, from Flo Rida's Low to Bon Jovi's It's My Life. I love all these music, but I just expected a more quiet & formal environment here. Overall, the food & environment just aren't worth the price. My suggestion is don't choose this restaurant for a date or a formal occasion, cuz it is super expensive & it won't meet your expectations.

The food is really good but the service was quite slow. It took 3h to finish omakase course. The server is really competent person so I think it is solely because of lack of staff.

My husband & I got the omakase for two. We enjoyed our time & food, but if we were to return in the future, I think we would order sushi off the regular menu. Most of the omakase dishes were good, but a few too many of them were just'okay' for our liking. Nonetheless, we are huge sushi fans & we enjoyed our time.

Je recommande vivement l'omakase. Très belle expérience culinaire. L'assortiment des plats est très bien choisi & le goût de chaque plat est excellent. Nous avons adoré.

Good, omakase menu was not too heavy, I wasn't overstuffed. Plates were complex with lots of textures & flavours. However, overall, there were no wow moments. Food was beautiful but not as tasty as it looked.

We got the omakase for two. I think the food was fine, the sushi itself being the best part. If we were to do it again we would probably only get sushi because we found that some of the other dishes slightly lacked seasoning. The evening started pretty quiet & quickly got busy & louder, but we were still able to enjoy the end of our meal. Service was efficient & professional though not particularly warm or inviting.

Extremely overpriced for the fare. Had the omakase for 2. We literally went for poutine afterwards because it was so little food. The portions on google where you see the plate of food, that isn't an individual serving, it was a shared plate for 2. Which is completely ridiculous for $110 per person. The nigiri sushi wasn't really much different from much cheaper restaurants.


The service was fantastic & attentative.

The fare is sourced somewhat locally, but i would have expected the price to reflect that, but they went the other way.

What an amazing food experience. Jun I, though a bit on the pricey side, was an excellent experience. We ordered the Omakase & Sushi Moriawase which was just the perfect amount of food to share between two people. The service was well paced, with our dining experience lasting just over two hours. Jun I is the perfect place to go on a dinner date with a loved one or simply go with friends to have a great night with amazing food. Highly recommend.
