Creativity – Simplicity – Balance Japanese cuisine is an art in which aesthetics stem from product freshness and quality and where preparation is as critical as presentation. The dishes must be pleasing both to the eye and palate, making Japanese cuisine a truly sensual experience. Mikado modestly tries to master this art in skilfully preparing sushi and sashimi as well as teriyaki, tempura, soba and a vast assortment of other succulent dishes. Among the pioneers of Japanese cuisine in Montreal back in 1987, Mikado first opened with an 80-seat capacity and only two employees. But through the magic of word of mouth, Mikado expanded and can now welcome 130 guests in a pleasant, family-style and laid back environment conducive to appreciation of great food. Kimio Nguyen, the chef-owner, now has under his wing a wonderful team of over 40 loyal and attentive professionals whose culinary philosophy is based on Japanese tradition while taking into account the eclectic tastes of Montrealers. Three basic elements underpin Mikado's philosophy: creativity, simplicity and balance. Creativity to dazzle with original dishes; simplicity to allow for the experience of full unadulterated flavours; and balance to beautifully bring together tastes, textures, ingredients and colours. The attention to detail and aesthetics is reflected in the decor and even in the use of hand-made tableware. With all this in mind, Mikado tries to fulfil the needs and desires of its customers. And for those with a taste for the unknown and the wildly creative, the chefs at Mikado will gladly prepare special dishes to delight your whims and fancies on the spot!

A la hauteur de la réputation. Excellent ! En plus j'étais invitée
Mila
Très belle expérience! Les produits sont frais & très bien préparés. Très bon service de notre serveur, pourtant à sa première journée! Coup de coeur pour les sushis Paradise, les Gyoza & le dessert tarte aux pommes à la crème brûlée. Cependant, carte plutôt très chère pour les quantités servies...
Suzanne
Great atmosphere, excellent service & tasty sushi... but don't order the black cod / morue noire! The portion is sooooo small that it is laughable. I see in another review posted 4 years ago that it was 27 dollars but, believe it or not, now it costs a heaping 42 dollars!!! 😵💫
Catherine
On a commandé en ligne ce soir, vraiment déçue de la qualité des sushi. La présentation laissait à désirer, les poissons n'étaient pas tous aussi frais qu'on aurait souhaité. Bref, c'était une première & dernière commande chez mikado :(
Pierrette
Service moyen, mais gentil. Vaisselle brisé ?! Inacceptable !

Sushis & plats principaux sensationnels dans une ambiance authentique & apaisante. Un endroit parfait pour une soirée romantique ou entre amis. L'endroit est spacieux pour permettre d'accommoder beaucoup de monde. Je suis particulièrement fan du bar où l'on peut voir l'un des cuisiniers préparer régulièrement des plats. La liste des sakés est également l'une des plus vastes à Montréal. Vous y trouverez votre compte très certainement.

The restaurant is chic & understated. It's perfect for an intimate date night. The staff is kind, but it appears they might have been understaffed on the night we were there, as service was extremely slow. We got our sashimi & appetizers at the very end of the service. The food is fresh, but nothing mind blowing. For similar prices, I can find much higher quality in prime locations as well.

Très belle expérience générale! Bonne nourriture & bon service. Ce fut un plaisir de souper là-bas.
Kenza
The food is very fresh & tasty. The servers are great but it does take a little while before you get your food. The restaurant itself is pretty too.

Disappointing food quality. Degraded service quality. No hot towels provided for customer use before order which is the minimum sincere service provided in before .
