Review Summary

Reviewers consistently rate Saiko as offering exceptionally fresh, high quality sushi with flavorful, beautifully presented rolls and sashimi. Many note the BYOB option and the intimate, cozy setting that feels like a small neighborhood gem in Laval. Service is widely praised as impeccable, friendly, and attentive, though a few mentions of slower pace during busy times acknowledge the kitchen's careful preparation. The menu is celebrated for creativity and consistency, with favorites noted across visits and takeout described as excellent. Many guests describe the fish as incredibly fresh, with some calling it the best sushi in Laval or the Montreal area and praising the delicate textures. Reservations are advised on weekends due to the small space and popularity. Allergen friendly notes are appreciated, with gluten awareness mentioned in at least one review. Overall, Saiko is described as a hidden gem, a reliable destination for celebratory meals, casual dinners, and special occasions. Diners repeatedly express a desire to return soon, citing excellent value and ongoing high quality.

Must try! We were beyond impressed with the quality of the fish, like butter melts in your mouth. Make sure to reserve in advance as the restaurant is small & crowded on the weekends. Service was great you can tell the employees enjoy serving their customers. Definitely recommend :)

Excellent food. The fish tasted very fresh & I like that their sushi rolls had a decent ratio between fish & rice (less rice compared to most other places, which I really like). Overall would recommend & come back.

I order from this restaurant quite often & have been a regular customer ever since I discovered Saiko more than a year ago. I did not expect to find such an incredible sushi restaurant in Laval. Since discovering Saiko in Laval, I refuse to order sushi or sashimi anywhere else. It is simply the best sushi restaurant. Staff at this restaurant are always friendly & accomodating. Prices & portions are very reasonable & the menu offerings are not overpriced like at many other sushi restaurants I have been to. Service at Saiko has always been punctual & orders were always ready on time for pickup. The sushi rolls & sashimi on the menu are beautifully crafted & delicious. They resemble artwork. Sushi & sashimi are always made with the freshest & tastiest seafood & ingredients. Of course, the emphasis is on the freshness of the ingredients. In addition to this, Saiko excels at every aspect of sushi & sashimi creation. Perfect ingredient pairings & flavor combinations used in sushi rolls & sashimi platters at Saiko demonstrate the ability of the chefs to understand different cuts & types of fish. Sushi & sashimi flavor & quality at this restaurant are on par with, if not better than, some of the best & most expensive sushi restaurants I have been to in NYC. I highly recommend the Chirashi platter, the Ste Dorothée roll, the Saiko roll, the organic salmon nigiri/sashimi & the aburi nigiri/sashimi offerings. I truly hope that Saiko in Laval will continue to be with us for many, many years to come & continue to maintain its superb food & service.
