About

Okeya Kyujiro provides a theatrical omakase experience centered on precise culinary craftsmanship and traditional Japanese techniques. The menu showcases seasonal seafood flown in directly from Japan to ensure maximum freshness and authenticity for every course served. Diners observe the preparation of delicate nigiri and intricate sashimi platters within a minimalist, wood-focused setting designed to highlight the ingredients. Each sequential dish emphasizes the purity of flavor, focusing on balance between acidity, texture, and umami. The service follows a rhythmic flow, synchronizing the pace of the meal with the expert preparation occurring at the central counter. This commitment to ritualized preparation elevates standard sushi offerings into a choreographed performance of skill. The focus remains exclusively on the structural integrity of the fish and the seasoned vinegared rice that anchors the entire experience.

Absolutely unbelievable experience, 100% worth the price! The whole team including Sogo, Hikaru & Kohei are masters of their craft. They surprised us with a free omakase at Okeya Kyoto & I will be going in October! Thanks again Yurie 🙏🙏

Easily the best place for sushi in Montreal. I felt like I was in Japan. We went for lunch & the waiter introduced us to different sakes that we loved, & was very knowledgeable in the subject.

J'ai assisté pour le souper avec une bonne amie & l'expérience au complet est très raffinée, gouteuse & remplie de culture. Nous avons eu une excellente hotesse qui nous a partagé un peu de sa culture avec nous. Elle était attentionnée à repondre nos questions & accompagné d'un bon sake !

Une expérience culinaire & plus à faire une fois (ou plus si l'on a les moyens). C'est absolument délicieux & tout est parfait. Le seul bémol est le dessert que l'on aurait adoré remplacé par d'autres plats tellement ils étaient bon! Un cadeau à se faire une fois de temps à autres.
