Quaint Japanese restaurant about 350m from the Bell Centre. It's located on the 2nd floor at the intersection of Stanley & Cypress so there are some stairs to climb. It's right next to the Italian restaurant & the signage isn't as obvious so you might miss it. Had the Bento du jour, which was quite generous in its servings. The fried tofu was pretty good, & the teriyaki salmon was a good serving served on a bed of rice. It came with 3 pieces of sushi & 4 California rolls that were very good. I enjoyed the small spring roll it came with as it was a different flavour to the fish pieces. The tempura was nice & light & the skewer of teriyaki chicken was very flavourful. Not shown in the picture but also included was a bowl of miso soup, salad & a dessert that included a scoop of green tea ice cream & a cup of hot green tea. Pretty good value bento box! Super friendly older lady was serving everyone & I was surprised they weren't busier. I wasn't sure how big the bento box would be so ordered a spicy salmon roll & 2 pieces of spicy tuna, both were great!

Traditional & authentic Japanese restaurant.

I've ordered the evening sushi sashimi set dinner. The food & service were both very good.

However, on the menu it says 6 pieces of sashimi, but it was actually 3 pieces but cut in half to make 6. Very dishonest & insincere business owners... Very unfortunate.

Historical authentic Japanese restaurant. They were the first one to open & they are the last one surviving.
It is simple authentic traditional Japanese food. Comforting & delicious.
Noriko Ishii will graciously welcome you . The Showa era atmosphere with Enka music in the background, friendly service & retro deco is very charming. It is the only place in Montreal where you can experience this. Enjoy while it is still here!

Décidément, après le désastre complet chez Iru Izakaya (voir critique), je ne suis pas chanceux avec les restaurants japonais.

J'y suis allé un midi, attiré par la longévité de la business, 50 ans en affaires pour un restaurant, c'est plutôt exceptionnel.

Malheureusement, ce s'est avéré cher pour rien. $30 avec taxes & services pour un poké bol bien en deçà des compétiteurs. Ça donne l'impression qu'ils l'ont créé parce que c'est devenu à la mode.

Les ingrédients sont très ordinaires, la marinade du poisson sans intérêt & la laitue prend bien trop de place.

Peut-être pour autre chose car on est pas 50 ans en affaires sans faire quelque chose de bien, mais si j'avais une recommandation à leur faire, enlevez le poké bol du menu: pas bon & trop cher.

A éviter.

P.S.: si ce review vous a été utile, s'il vous plaît laisser un 👍, merci à l'avance 🙏
