Magnifique petit restaurant de quartier avec une atmosphère chaleureuse & un personnel accueillant. Les sushis/sashimis sont frais & excellents & les proportions sont bonnes. On voit qu'il y a un soucis du détail & de la recherche dans la présentation! Nous n'avons plus besoin d'aller au centre-ville lorsque nous avons envi de manger des sushis de qualité. Belle découverte, nous y retournerons c'est certain!
I've been in Canada for more than seven years now & I've tried so many sushi restaurants. I have to say that this one became my favorite. The quality is amazing & it's real Japanese food. Chirashi bowl to die for! I hope they keep the same quality.
Une belle découverte! Ça vallait le détour. Les présentations des assiettes étaient originales & magnifiques. Les sushis savoureux & un accueil chaleureux.
Amazing sushi. So fresh!!! Great friendly staff & fast service. Nice atmosphere, very cozy & it's a bring your own wine. Will definitely be going again!!

Commande Uber. Après avoir lu les commentaires Google on s'est dit que ça serait probablement un délice. En plus, vu le prix, on s'est dit que ça serait de qualité incroyable. & ben non. Des sushis flash à l'oeil accompagnés de maki qu'on dirait qu'ils ont été garoché. Oui, y'a de beaux morceaux de protéines, mais ça goûtait absolument rien & le riz étaient trop épais. Une sorte a vraiment été incroyable sur les 10. Même la sauce pour tremper goûtait la vieille sauce rassis. C'est dommage, mais ça arrive. 6 cups de plastiques pour du gingembre & du wasabi qui vont directement dans le compost, c'est de l'abus. Juste un gros tas dans un des contenant de sushis aurait été moins de gaspillages de plastique.
The chefs making the food actually seem passionate about what they are making. After delivering some of the best sushi I've ever had, the man working there humbly came to us & asked us if we liked it. 10/10 must try

Awesome little place we stumbled across tonight & the bonus, it's a bring your own wine The sushis were delicious, green salad with their homemade salad dressing & some edamames! We will definitely come back!
Best sushi I had in a long while, best presentation & service as well. I live a bit far but will be returning for sure; worth the detour! Had the sashimi lover combo & a maki combo for 2 & it was exquisite. A good mix of standard rolls & exceptional, stand out creations. It had been a while that I've seen every patron in a restaurant take photos of their food, but everyone here couldn't resist! It's just that pretty. & delicious. BYOB as well.
The BEST sushi in town. Delicious & fresh sushi, beautiful presentation & friendly staff making our experience amazing. :) Would recommend this restaurant to every sushi enthusiast out there!
