The staff is so welcoming & helpful with the menu. We were two (for dinner), they recommended just perfect portions without overly pushing the sales.
Everything was served beautifully. Fishes were fresh, personally I love their homrmade soy sauce. My wife enjoyed their homemade ginger ice tea too!
You can feel the passion behind the brand.
10/10, I'll rate this shop 10stars if I could!

Was excited to try Maison Est but the food fell short. The shrimp tempura & avocado bites were probably the best. The other rolls (spicy salmon & scallop) lacked flavour from the fish to the sauce & rice. Rolls were poorly constructed & broke quite easily. The salmon quality is quite low with much of the salmon still having fatty ends & brown bits. Soy sauce is very light & they forgot to include chopsticks.
Amazing sushi! Everything was extremely fresh & high quality, with generous portions of fish & excellent flavor. You can really tell care goes into the preparation. Amazing sushi!

What a beautiful gem in the neighbourhood!! Stopped in on my lunch break. Super fresh sushi was made to order within 10 minutes. Got to sip on complimentary ginger tea while I waited, a great touch on a freezing winter day. Lovely, friendly owner/sushi chef. Was really nice meeting you! So happy to have discovered our family's new takeout spot for years to come!
This place is the best sushi spot ever! The most amazing small business ever! The owner is so kind & generous & friendly. Their tea is delicious & the sushi is superb! Best sushi I've ever had, the quality was amazing & it was so fresh! All the stars!! ✨🌟🥰
An amazing establishment! I could tell we found a winner right when we walked in. Super kind service & very welcoming. The food is stunning with good portions. The owner even rearranged the furniture so we could dine in. We will have to visit from Toronto more often! Thank you & happy holidays :)
I usually eat at all-you-can-eat sushi places to satisfy my big sushi cravings affordably, but when I saw a review on tiktok, I just had to try this place. The portions & sizing of the sushi themselves are very generous. Everything tasted so fresh & flavourful, I didn't even want to dip my sushi in anything most of the time, but the homemade sauces were also so good so I still did. The place is small but the atmosphere is so warm & welcoming. There was a ginger & brown sugar tea on the counter that we could help ourselves to while waiting that was delicious. The lady who served us was very kind. We got the salmon & eel sushi (8 pcs), & the'mini-gathering' platter (48 pcs), & their big decadent cookies (a hazelnut one, & an oreo one). For the quality & portion size it was so worth it. You could definitely eat here for cheaper, so ignore my 50-60, that's just how much we spent, & you can see we had a lot. We just wanted to try a lot. 😊 10/10, will definitely be back!
Advertised as open, however not accurate. Do not take a chance at coming here as the posted hours are not respected by the business. Heard amazing things about this business but unfortunately they lost a customer for life. I am an avid sushi lover & an entrepreneur. I respect my posted hours & my commitment to my clients. Extremely disappointed.
