Sushi Nishinokaze is an intimate, 8-seat Edomae sushiya in Montreal, led by Canada and Japan trained chef-owner Vincent Gee.
Nishinokaze, which translates to "West Wind," reflects his mission to showcase the pristine natural flavor of both local and imported wild seafood.
The foundation of our cuisine, the shari (sushi rice), is crafted using naturally grown rice and artisanal red vinegar sourced directly from the producers.
Our space was designed by acclaimed Montreal and Tokyo-born architects Justin Nguyen (David Adjaye, SHoP) and Taichi Kuma (Tailand, Kengo Kuma and Associates), blending old world and modern design language seamlessly.
As a “living gallery,” we present ancient and contemporary ceramics in their most beautiful state: in use. Our unparalleled collection, which changes monthly, spans over 5,000 years of Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, Middle Eastern, and Western pottery.
We offer a carefully curated selection of rare sake, Burgundy, Champagne, and natural wines.

The intimate atmosphere, the comfortable pace of the meal, the warm wood tones & jazz in the background. Each bite was wonderful. If you want to celebrate a special occasion or are just a sushi lover, this is a great place to do it. The chef is clearly very passionate about his work & takes time to explain each question in detail with enthusiasm. I can't recommend this place enough.View more
Ma conjointe & moi fêtions nos 1 an de mariage. Nous avons littéralement voyagé au Japon. Nous avons été transporté dans un expérience dont nous allons nous rappeler pendant longtemps. Le service, la qualité des ingrédients, le soucies du détails, la simplicité des plats & que dire des toilettes japonaises!
Merci pour ce moment. Ça n'avais pas de prix!View more
Nothing short of world-class, delivering an experience on par with (if not better than) legendary spots like Shion in NYC & Shoushin in Toronto.
Julian & Vincent's passion for craft is evident in every bite-from the meticulous sourcing of the finest ingredients to their masterful execution. Each course is a showcase of precision, balance, & depth of flavor (Can you say UMAMI?!?!), making for an unforgettable dining experience. The attention to detail & reverence for tradition are second to none.
This is the kind of place that keeps calling you back, & I'll be returning very, very often. What an experience, thank you for bringing your talents to this city.View more
