Mikado propose une approche raffinée des traditions culinaires japonaises en se concentrant sur la préparation précise de sushis frais et de plats asiatiques authentiques. La carte présente une sélection variée de sashimis, de nigiris et de makis créatifs qui mettent en avant des produits de la mer saisonniers de haute qualité. Un travail minutieux au couteau définit chaque assiette, garantissant que les textures restent équilibrées et éclatantes pour chaque client. L'atmosphère demeure axée sur une esthétique minimaliste qui souligne la présentation artistique de la cuisine sans aucune distraction inutile. Des techniques expertes appliquées aux profils de saveurs traditionnels créent une expérience constante à travers l'ensemble des plats chauds et froids proposés. Cet établissement maintient un engagement envers la rigueur culinaire, offrant un environnement structuré où l'attention reste portée sur la pureté et l'intégrité des ingrédients utilisés.
Mikado est largement reconnu comme une destination de premier choix pour une cuisine japonaise de haute qualité à Montréal, constamment salué pour ses sushis frais et minutieusement préparés ainsi que pour ses cocktails artisanaux créatifs. De nombreux clients soulignent l'ambiance à la fois chic et confortable ainsi que le professionnalisme et l'attention du personnel, qui fait souvent preuve d'un grand dévouement pour rendre les célébrations ou les sorties décontractées mémorables. Bien que la grande majorité des visiteurs décrive la nourriture comme exceptionnelle et le service comme impeccable, il existe quelques signalements isolés concernant une incohérence dans la qualité du service, des attentes liées aux prix ou des expériences individuelles divergeant du standard élevé habituel. Dans l'ensemble, le restaurant demeure un classique incontournable du quartier, fortement recommandé pour ses saveurs authentiques, sa présentation raffinée et son atmosphère accueillante.
We went to Mikado a couple of days ago, & unfortunately I am not convinced.
The sushis were great, but not wow & not justifying their price. Fish was good, but not extraordinary, we've been to better sushis places for cheaper prices. 17$ for 6 sushis … it was a first for me. 6$ for what was supposed to be a tofu nigiri/sashimi turned to be 2 tofu pockets you can buy at the grocery store. Everything was not that expensive & we had other good options. I don't mind paying more if the quality justifies it & it was not the case.
However, the service was impeccable! Everyone was paying attention to our drinks, empty plates, etc. It was definitely a highlight for the night. The ambiance was very nice too & we were able to talk without hearing the other tables.
I loved everything about this restaurant from start to finish.
The food was incredibly fresh, full of flavor, & beautifully presented. The drinks were just as impressive-creative, refreshing, & perfectly paired with the meal.
The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & every staff member we encountered was professional, attentive, & genuinely friendly. It's rare to find a place that gets everything right, but this one truly does.
I will absolutely be coming back & highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience.'

Visited Mikado on a friend's recommendation, mainly for the cocktails - & it didn't disappoint. Simone, the bartender, was amazing. Every drink we had was refined, balanced & honestly one of the best we've had. The manager told us that Lola poured her heart into creating these cocktails & it showed.
Service was friendly & fast, with great hospitality all around. The space was beautiful, & even the bar seating felt spacious & cozy. The food was great as well, especially the small bites & rolls. Would absolutely come back.
I've been a regular at this restaurant for a while because the food is always fresh, flavourful, & nicely prepared. The kitchen team deserves credit. Unfortunately, the front-of-house service continues to fall short, & my experience on Monday, June 9th, was especially disappointing.
I had called ahead to ask if Caesars could be made at lunch, since I know there's no bartender during the day. The woman who answered assured me they could. But when we arrived, not only were we left without water for over 15 minutes on a hot day, the server was dismissive & rude when my friend politely asked about it.
When she finally came to take our drink order, she told us they didn't have Clamato - despite having said yes on the phone. I offered to pick some up from the depanneur just down the street or asked if someone from staff could, but she refused without a trace of apology or effort. Even more frustrating, she declined to take responsibility for having confirmed something she hadn't checked.
In the end, I had to relocate my guests to another restaurant - not because of the mix-up, but because of how she spoke to us. The way we were treated made it clear that our presence wasn't welcome.
I hate to leave this kind of review, because the food truly is good, & I've had a few good service experiences in the past. But the inconsistency - & especially the tone of this last visit - is making it hard to justify coming back. I hope management steps in, because the kitchen deserves better front-of-house support.
Wonderful family who runs an establishment serving top-tier high-quality sushi & Japanese dishes.
The atmosphere, service, & food/drink quality is amazing!
Recommend for date nights, family celebrations, & work dinners.
Everything was remarkable, from the dishes to the drinks. I particularly loved the raw scallops, & the sushi & sashimi were outstanding. Although I'm usually not a big fan of vegetarian sushi, the one served here was exceptional. The sake, Masumi, was also delicious, boasting a dry & fruity flavour.
Food: I would definitely recommend the sashimi assortment & toro, everything tasted so fresh & had a great texture. The sushi rolls are quite unique, twists on the classics, & it was very enjoyable to taste.
The desserts deserve their own highlight, the deconstructed apple pie was so refreshing & the cherry pie is absolutely irresistible. I loved the mix of flavours & textures, & they might be one of my favourite desserts in Montreal.
Service: Our waiter was amazing, he was incredibly nice & patient with our questions, also very friendly. He recommended that we try custom cocktails from the bartender, who can make a drink based on your preferences, & all of them were perfectly on point, & they were delicious.
Atmosphere: Really great vibes for a night out with friends or date night. I cannot recommend it enough.
Mikado is such a great restaurant. Everything I tried was absolutely incredible & fresh. The drinks are also out of this world & the service was impeccable. I highly recommend it!
The delicious food can only be outmatched by the incredible service you get when you go to Mikado. & the drinks are some of the most innovative creations I've ever tried! From tomato to mushroom, & even corn infused drinks, Lola & Tin never disappoint
