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.

Bring your own wine or sake! Beautiful presentation & great food! The quality is there. The sushi is fresh & tasty. The service is a little slow but the food is delicious!
Overall we had an absolutely amazing experience! We were so excited to try a new local sushi place close to home. The service was incredible the staff is very friendly & accommodating. The sushi was very fresh & was served fast. This place is an absolute must try we will definitely be coming back!
It's very rare that I give reviews but this restaurant deserves all the praise it can get!!!
I ordered pick up tonight & honestly, not only were the sushi amazing, the lady took the time to specify on each package which one was gluten & which one wasn't. It is honestly the best sushi I've ever had, in terms of quality & freshness. I would 100% recommend this place!!
Had the pleasure of having dinner at Saiko for a family dinner celebrating a birthday tonight. It was my first time to this quaint little byob restaurant that impressed me a lot. The food was delicious, the sashimi was very fresh, the rolls were all exquisite & very tasty. The service was amazing & the staff very friendly. I feel lucky to have found a gem like this in Laval not too far from home. I will definitely be going back. I also noticed a lot of takeout so will for sure be ordering from there regularly from now on.
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.
This was our second time at Saiko & it did not disappoint.
Outstanding is an understatement.
Extremely fresh & delicate sashimi to interesting complex makis were served .
Our waiter Kim was very friendly & professional.
Possibly the best sushi dinner this year.
Looking forward to the next time
Outstanding sushi-fresh, flavorful, & melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The service was warm & friendly, making the experience even better. A must-visit spot!
A very clean & cozy restaurant , offering a very up & coming dining atmosphere.
The food is simply out of this world fresh & delicious. The service is truly impeccable as well .
An absolute must & it's a BYOB !! What more can someone ask for. I truly recommend to all Sushi lovers.
What a hidden little gem in St-Do! Food was amazing, very fresh & flavourful. Loved the quaint little space, open view of kitchen. Tried a lot of sushi & sashimis, all were delicious as was the rice & miso soup. Will definitely return.
Really fresh food, the service was a little slow but it's because they make it to order. When you get the food you taste the freshness & understand it's not about speed. It's about flavor, freshness & beautiful presentation.
