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.
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.
