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.

For those who love sushi, the sushi is exceptional quality. Each bite was a delight. Felt like dancing as the flavors of the sea penetrated my senses. Unfortunately, the service was almost painful. I shared with the waiter that it was my friend's birthday. The waiter was sadly unatentive & cold. It is a tiny restaurant. Yet, we had to ask several times for simple items like Wasabi & a soda. I love the food. Not impressed with the service.

We felt a bit forgotten seated at the end of the bar. Maybe short staffed that night? We were not asked about next drinks, water wasn't poured when finished, etc. The creativity & quality of the food we received (chose the 70$ chefs choice) was underwhelming & we expected more from this restaurant relative to what we've heard about it. We were greeted very well, but once seated it felt like we were an inconvenience or an after thought. Our waiter did not provide any context or history about the restaurant & as it was our first time, we thought that might come up, but there was never the opportunity to converse about it. Unfortunately not a great first experience. The martini was excellent however !

Loved this restaurant. My husband & I each took the tasting menu. At first I was hesitant because the first 4 services are served in one plate/bowl for us to share. Quality & taste was good though. Sushi is excellent. Dessert too. We reserved seats at the bar thinking we'd be able to see the chefs prepare (open kitchen) but there is none if that.

I’m not a person that ever leaves reviews but JunI was so spectacular I simply had to. Very friendly & attentive waitstaff that know what they’re talking about when asked about the products. They deliver each item with an entire description & breakdown so you’re not left guessing. Highest quality fish & drinks. The chef himself personally comes out to every table to ensure they had a quality experience & to ask about the night. 10/10 spot.
