Menu de groupe pour 70$, 4 services. Premièrement, nous étions 2 tables de 7. À chaque service, une table recevait plus d'assiette qu'une autre alors que nous étions le même nombre. Les portions elles-mêmes étaient très petite pour le prix. Le premier service: des chips avec une trempette.. pour moi, il s'agit plutôt d'un à côté que d'un service complet. Le deuxième service était bon avec les sushis, toutefois nous n'en avions que 4-5 par personnes. Le troisième service: des tranches ultra mince de boeuf accompagnées de tofu sans goût & d'épinards chauds.. La morue était bonne, mais encore une fois nous devions partager un minuscule morceau de poisson en 7. Le dessert était bon & le dj (& non la serveuse) nous a offert des shooters. La serveuse a plutôt renversé de la sauce sur la robe de notre amie. C'est la première fois à Montréal que je me sens volé, je suis déçu & ne reviendrai pas. Je vous recommande plutôt le Nikkei pour ce prix.

So reserved, got the spot no problem, sat & ordered drinks, then waited about 45 mins... Then finally got them & they were good, until the server came & took my drink when I haven't even had half of it when we asked for the bill. Yikes

Excellente adresse à Montréal ! Peu connu mais tout en finesse, j'ai bien aimé mais pour le prix je m'attendais à un peu plus dans mon assiette mais d'une très grande qualité !
