This restaurant offers tapas in a fantastic fusion of Peruvian & Japanese cuisine, along with a delightful selection of cocktails.

We tried serveral small dishes & we particularly enjoyed the incredible mix of flavors of the Lomito Saltado. We also loved the attention to detail, like the adorable origami crane pinned to the Sakaya cocktail we ordered-it was not only a charming touch but also delicious!

For dessert, we had the'Suspiro Nikkei,' & it was nothing short of a revelation. The creative combination of dulce de leche & miso flavors wowed us.

The lively decor enhanced our experience, creating a vibrant atmosphere that was both inviting & fun. Furthermore, The service was friendly & efficient.View more

We had an amazing experience at Nikkei. I had my eye on this restaurant for a while because the idea of a Peruvian & Japanese fusion sounded so interesting. We walk in & the decor is gorgeous. We decided on the blind menu, & allowed our waitress to decide for us. From the first bite, we were amazed!! Very interesting flavours! Even the cocktails were unique & their presentations were beautiful. Our waitress Estelle gave us top quality service from the moment we stepped in. She gave us great recommendations & answered all our questions, so she really knew her stuff. We'll be back for sure! Well worth every penny!View more

In a word, phenomenal. There is a certain conceit of the fusion restaurant that they might master not one but multiple cuisines. Not here. They've captured the essence of both, & provided a cocktail menu that holds its own. If only I lived closer.View more

I visited this Japanese-Peruvian fusion restaurant about three weeks ago & tried their "MTL à Table" discovery menu. The food was excellent-beautifully presented & full of flavor-but it is definitely on the pricier side compared to similar restaurants in Montreal offering comparable dishes. While I'd recommend it to friends for the unique fusion experience & quality of the food, I'm unsure if I'd return myself, considering the cost. It's worth a visit if you're looking to try something special & don't mind the splurge!View more

The fusion between Japanese & Peruvian food was ok, it lacked seasoning, flavor. The dishes either were too sour or felt too spicy & the desserts felt store bought just so sweet. The cocktails did not have the right balance felt too sweet & the other one was watered down as there was too much ice. The service was slow at the beginning it felt that the kitchen staff & servers were a little overwhelmed, they were however very nice & apologetic. Towards the end it felt rushed with our two hour time limit & as they reminded us again even though we had not even had the dessert course. I would not recommend for an intimate date night however could be good for groups as you would have more time to eat & share multiple dishes.View more

This restaurant was a great surprise! With a Japanese-Peruvian fusion speciality dishes, you can taste different flavors from tiradito & ceviche to curry. The drinks were also very good & the ambiance was perfect. The restaurant is a bit pricey, but the quality of the food compensate! Update: I just tried the special menu Mtl à table & it was delicious!View more

An amazing menu of Peruvian & Japanese fusion. If you like ceviche, crudo & sashimi, you wont be disappointed. Cocktails are really good as well. The best Bloody Ceasar I've ever had is made here. Definitely give it a try. It does get busy in the evenings, so a reservation is your best way to guarantee a table.View more

Excellente expérience gustative ! De l'apéro au dessert, tout était savoureux. Je recommande fortement ce restaurant à tous les amateurs de cuisine japonaise & péruvienne : la fusion est parfaitement réussie. Un seul bémol : il faut savoir bien manipuler les baguettes ! & c'est bruyant.View more

Cuisine fusion japonaise & péruvienne. Les plats sont délicieux, mais souvent très salés (trop pour certains d'où mon étoile en moins). Service bien, quelques serveurs/ses ne connaissent pas vraiment les sakés sur la carte ce qui est dommage. Vraiment le fun de pouvoir admirer le travail en cuisine en soupant. Beau restaurant de la rue Laurier.View more

"Coming from a country where gastronomy is number 1 in the world, I give the taste of the food a 4/5. Very good handling of flavors, fresh fish & ingredients, but the extravagance of the portions leaves something to be desired. It's understood that it's Japanese-Peruvian fusion cuisine, but that doesn't justify the disproportion between portion size & price. Plate-Price ratio 3/5. Very good service, friendly, 4/5. Parking is a nightmare (terrible), 1/5." "I'm not one of those people who use their cell phone all day, but this trend of putting the menu on QR codes is not friendly at all. The idea is to enjoy a lunch tête-à-tête with the other person, without the interruption of a phone. For what you pay, it wouldn't hurt to have printed menu impressions (we know menus change), but it should be mandatory."View more

Un moment fabuleux, vécu dans ce restaurant. Le personnel si chaleureux est toujours aux soins avec les clients. Les mets sont d'une saveur exceptionnelle où l'on sent l'implication & la passion. Quant aux cocktails, leurs couleurs, leurs saveurs & leurs présentations, ne sont que du bonheur. Leurs créations ne sont certainement pas faites au hasard. Nous avons pleinement apprécié, cette fusion d'ingrédients, de saveurs aussi bien dans nos verres que dans nos assiettes. Nous remercions tout le personnel & recommandons fortement cet établissement. Allez-y.... Tentez l'expérience.View more

Super ambiance, service A1, la fusion entre les saveurs péruvienne & japonaise est exquise & reconnaissable. Ma seule critique/suggestion est le plat de magret de canard, la viande était coupée de façon très épaisse, ce qui l'a rendu difficile à manger & la présentation pourrait être amiliorée simplement en mettant la sauce de coté OU en changeant la base (couleur) de la sauce, si vous comprenez ce que je veux dire :) 5* pour tout le reste !View more

Nikkei MTL in Montreal's Plateau Mont-Royal is a delightful surprise for the culinary adventurer. During my visit, the cocktails immediately stood out for their innovative blends & stunning presentation, revealing a fearless creativity in mixology that's as rare as it is delightful. But the true star of the show is the food; Nikkei MTL's fusion of Japanese precision & Peruvian flair is executed to perfection. The quality of the fish is unparalleled, making each dish a taste of the extraordinary. This was my first encounter with such a fusion, & it was nothing short of revelatory, setting Nikkei MTL apart from more traditional dining experiences. The ambiance of the restaurant complements the exceptional dining experience. It's inviting & pleasantly atmospheric, striking the perfect balance between sophistication & comfort. Furthermore, the prices are surprisingly reasonable for the quality on offer, ensuring that guests can indulge in this unique culinary journey without reserve. A significant part of what makes Nikkei MTL so special, however, is the people. The waitstaff & bartenders exude friendliness & professionalism, contributing significantly to the overall experience with their attentive & knowledgeable service. In essence, Nikkei MTL is not just a meal; it's an exploration of culinary artistry, blending the best of Japanese & Peruvian cuisines in a setting that's as welcoming as it is innovative. It's a must-visit for those in Montreal seeking a dining experience that dares to be different, yet achieves perfection in its daring.View more
