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!
BYOW RESTAURANT Food was good & fresh. Small cute little place. I recommend you reserve in advance. Apportez votre vin Les plats étaient bons & frais. Je vous conseille de réserver d'avance car, ils ont pas beaucoup de tables. Service était quand même rapide pour un vendredi soir.
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!
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.
Le riz est parfait, les ingrédients sont frais, les compositions sont bien balancées (j'ai beaucoup aimé le rouleau de maki Sainte-Dorothée) & la présentation est impeccable. Que du bonheur en bouche!
