It does taste like Japan except the beef tataki (felt like overcooked beef) & the cocktail (highball different from all the one I had in Japan). Good sake selection as well

J'y allais souvent quand le restaurant était encore sur Notre-Dame. L'ancien endroit avait une ambiance plus simple & cozy, presque comme un petit restaurant familial japonais.

Le nouveau local est beaucoup plus chic & moderne, donc l'ambiance est différente maintenant, mais la nourriture est toujours aussi bonne.

Ai mangé dans ce restaurant suite à la critique de La Presse & plus jamais je ne me fierai à cette personne. Restaurant à peine propre, une seule personne pour tout faire, qui en plus se traîne les pieds avec un habillement sale, qui tousse dans ses mains & retourne préparer ses plats à mains nues.
Pour l'entrée de 6 petits plats au moins 4 sortent du frigo, un autre de poulet avec épaisse panure & sashimi de nature non décrite & inconnue.
En plat nouilles udon & crabe. Je dirais qu'il y avait plus de parmesan que de crabe & 0 pince de crabe tel que la photo l'indiquait.
Alors ça été assez pour moi.

If asked to describe our experience at Nozy in one word: Incredible! (based on what we ordered)

The sashimi was very fresh! LOVED the omasake & grilled octopus!

My only complaint is that it was a little cold sitting next to the door so we moved to the bar instead. The best decision as they were fantastic seats which allowed a glimpse of the care behind each dish - thoughtful & beautiful presentation.
