Nikkei MTL shines as a lively fusion spot where Peruvian and Japanese flavors come together in bright, thoughtful presentations and a creative cocktail program, with many guests calling the food inventive and delicious and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. The bar and service are repeatedly praised for attentiveness and personality, making for memorable evenings at the counter or dining tables. While portions and prices draw mixed notes and a few experiences mention slower pacing or occasional missteps, overall guests leave impressed by the quality, the variety of tapas style dishes, and the standout tasting menus that balance bold flavors with freshness.
The taste & creativity of the food is rather good. The very overrated & underdelivered tapas format; its small quantities & asymmetrical format tonforce consumers into buying more, makes this experience highly unpleasant. Nikkei has an opportunity to go against that trend with a good product but instead choose to master its negative aspect.
I do not recommend this place.
Service for the visit was abisimal, factoring in the hire of uninterested summer staff but asking for a high rating restaurant experience. Order was slow, food aervice was slow, drink order was slow. A bar that gives itself a ttle of'great cocktail' but doesn't have the products to produce standard drinks is a bit difficult to understand.
Ambiance was mediocre with a generic playlist of'best of the 2000s' playing on loop indoors, not a care in the world.
Totalling 80$ per person for 2 slow drinks & 3 forgettable tapas is frustrating & laughable.
Une magnifique soirée au bar servi par Chami! Les cocktails distingués & délicieux, les plats savoureux, un service soigné, bien rythmé & des plus agréable. Un endroit où passer un moment fantastique.
Real sabor peruano!!! J'aimé beaucoup la serveuse Amber, elle était super attentif!! Tous les plats sont bonnes 👌🏻 Merci aussi au bar (Jeremie), le pisco sour & pina colada sont les magnifiques!!
Visited for the 2nd time last weekend, definitely didn't disappoint. Sat at the bar with Chami, he was very friendly & made tasty cocktails. Got to try one his experimental drinks & it was a hit. The food was incredible, Peruvian & Japanese fusion. The Porchetta stuffed with mushroom was unreal, great portion size, shoutout to Chef Mikey. Won't be my last visit.
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! 🫶🏼
