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.

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.

Diners repeatedly express a desire to return soon, citing excellent value and ongoing high quality.
Je suis allée avec une amie un mercredi soir. Le restaurant était rempli & le service était rapide. Mon amie & moi avions pris un combo de chef à deux personnes. J'étais un peu inquiète que ce ne soit pas assez, mais finalement c'était bien remplissant pour nous. Les sushis étaient frais & très delicieux. On a eu plusieurs choix au saumon (nous sommes des grandes fans de saumon) & ils étaient tous excellents!
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!
Mes meilleurs sushis en 25 ans. ;0)
Ambiance intime de petit resto de cartier.
Des maîtres en confection de sushis. Un délice autant pour les yeux que pour les papilles. Vous vous sentirez presque coupables de voir disparaître ces petites oeuvres d'art éphémères de votre assiette, …jusqu'à la première bouchée. Des perfectionnistes.
Longue vie!!
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!

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 :)
Une voisine m'a recommandé ce restaurant de sushi. J'ai commandé & j'ai adoré, qualité, originalité, plus envie d'aller nulle part ailleurs, c'est délicieux !!!! Je recommande !
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!!
