Review Summary

Nikkei MTL offers a bold Peruvian-Japanese fusion in tapas form, with a lively but warm atmosphere and attentive service. The menu showcases inventive, beautifully plated dishes and standout cocktails, from ceviches and nigiri to Lomito Saltado, all balanced with thoughtful pairings. The bar and dining staff are repeatedly praised for their knowledge, friendliness, and ability to guide guests through tasting menus and chef recommendations. Decor and ambiance are described as cozy, stylish, and welcoming, making it a great setting for friends, date nights, or celebrations. Prices and portions are noted as premium but the consensus is that the overall experience is memorable and worth visiting again.

I highly suggest sitting at the bar with Chami, he was the best & made our experience so much better! The food is excellent, bravo to the cooks (Alejandro & victor), we had an amazing time. Everyone is so nice & the place is amazing! GIVE THEM A RAISE! 🫶🏼

We went for dinner at Nikkei even though it wasn't our first choice. We had to cancel another reservation & ended up going there on a whim. What a wonderful discovery. We chose the chef's surprise menu & the chef truly impressed us. The flavors built beautifully from start to finish. The scallops in the curry sauce were sublime, this is a must try. The entire staff was attentive & kind. A restaurant you absolutely have to go to!

A nice place for a group dinner. The food was ok, portions were a bit small. The dessert was excellent. The service in general with the waiter we had, was awesome.

What an experience. Sitting down at Nikkei Montréal & letting Chef Daniel take the lead is truly a journey. Each bite somehow tops the previous one-layered, unexpected, & full of bold yet balanced flavors. The Peruvian-Japanese fusion is executed with so much intention & creativity that you can feel the story behind every dish. This isn't just a meal, it's a culinary trip you'll be thinking about long after the last bite. Absolutely worth the experience.

La nourriture était vraiment excellente ! Je trouve cependant que la quantité était petite pour le prix. Un autre petit bémol également est que nous avions pris le menu dégustation, mais on ne se faisait pas expliquer les plats que nous recevions. On savait donc pas trop ce qu'on mangeait. Une expérience globalement mitigé avec de la nourriture de qualité.

What a wonderful experience! Super flavorful dishes & incredibly attentive & friendly service! Especially Victor behind the sushi counter, who went above & beyond 🥹✨ I'd highly recommend the maracuya pisco which was super tasty & the cocoviche was unique & fantastic!!

J'ai adoré ce restaurant !!!
Pour les amateurs de poisson, je vous conseille vivement de goûter à leurs merveilleux plats de poisson aux assaisonnements frais & au goût exquis. Goûtez les ceviche, vous ne le regretterez pas !
J'ai également goûté à deux plats de viande qui étaient excellents.
Faites juste attention car c'est un restaurant à tapas. Ce qu'on a fait c'est qu'à deux on a partagé 5 tapas. C'est largement suffisant.
En tout cas c'était un excellent restaurant, les mélanges de goûts étaient divins, je n'ai pas été déçue.
