Jun I est largement reconnu comme une destination de choix pour des sushis de haute qualité à Montréal, apprécié pour la fraîcheur de ses ingrédients, sa présentation artistique et son service attentionné. De nombreux clients louent l'expérience Omakase et les rouleaux spécialisés, soulignant que les saveurs sophistiquées et les textures uniques justifient le prix élevé pour les occasions spéciales. Bien que la grande majorité des convives décrivent leurs visites comme exceptionnelles et mémorables, certains avis récents soulignent des irrégularités dans la qualité de la cuisine, une lenteur dans le service et un déclin ressenti de l'ambiance. Malgré des retours mitigés sur la cadence et les tarifs, le restaurant demeure une recommandation de premier plan pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience culinaire japonaise authentique et raffinée en ville.
Excellent sushi place. They have a small, but meaningful menu. The restaurant is very lively & inviting. We had dinner on a Wed, starting at open, & by 7 pm, all the tables were full. Three primary things on the menu: - "omakase" (in quotes because it is table-side, not traditional, bar-side, one-bite at a time). Includes 4 hot dishes, & 15 nigiri, maki, sashimi, - only the 15 raw-fish option, - a-la-carte. We opted for the 15 raw-fish option "omakase" with a couple of add-ons. The candied salmon trout was amazing. Sushi were fresh & tasty, albeit no premium pieces (CAD 75 for 15 pieces is quite generous, & hard to get premium pieces), Service was fantastic. Recommend.
A very lovely sushi restaurant, where I would have to recommend at least doing the moriawase option. I did not try the omakase option, & maybe regret not doing so in hindsight. If deciding a la carte, do try the scallop gunkan & if possible the japanese mackerel (it was a unique offering during our visit). The establishment is pretty but small & relatively modest. Almost too small as you can hear a loud table quite easily. You may be taken aback by the simplicity of it all, including the disposable chopsticks for your use. Hiding behind the first impressions however are a warm towel to clean your hands, unique off-menu options, a knowledgeable & thoughtful server, & an amuse bouche that was a substantially sized gunkan sushi in our case. Be ready to pay upwards of $100 per person to leave satisfied, but also be ready to receive over-average sushi sizes. Each piece of sushi is on average 5 dollars with regards to the moriawase, but each is sized reasonably. I enjoyed the Jun Gin cocktail, sumashi soup appetizer, & the white chocolate/yuzu/fennel dessert. The latter was very unique, helped cut the fishiness left over on my plate, & frankly made my night. I hope to return here!
The we worst sushi ever. I ve been to this restaurant few years ago, itcwas an amazing experience. But yesterday i was really disappointed & sad. Paying more than 100 $ for a mediocre food & sushi. It was very amateurish. I will ever go again to this restaurant instead i ll learn how to make my own sushi since am used to buy a very high quality of fish. Why bother to throw away my money on a such bad experience. It's a total scam. Mistake a client with the poor food but very expensive one. Not to mention long service.
Diner was absolutely delicious ! You can tell the fish is super fresh & you get your money's worth. Loved the waiters & their attention to details (never had to ask for anything). Good music & happy to see options of tasty non-alcoholic drinks as well. Overall great experience, will come back FOR SURE !!
We had the best experience, service was above & beyond, the fish was buttery & so incredibly fresh (we had the sushi moriawase). The matcha dessert was a winner, as well. We can't wait to come back. Deserves all the hype & more.
food was top tier, BUT the service on the other hand was terrible. this was my second time coming here & had booked for a birthday. we ended up getting the omakase menu & the duck breast & crusted fish were my favourites (besides the sushi assortment of course). though, the downside was that we had waited such a long time in between each shared course. we were seated in the restaurant for two & a half hours, which is i think is not ideal for a six-course meal. mind you, the restaurant flow was overall moderate. overall, i would only come back for the à la carte as it seems that everyone after us was getting their food five times faster.
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.
