The three of us got the tasting menu, & it was incredible. Our server, seeing we were getting full, even offered to pack up our dessert course to go. Highly recommend checking out Umami. Cocktails are also delicious, so don't hesitate to try a few.

Le menu dégustation en 5 services est intéressant mais les plats sont un peu trop inégaux. On a l'impression de ne pas forcément goûter à ce que la cuisine fait de meilleur mais au contraire, il s'agit plutôt des plats moins sexy, tel que la soupe Miso & des salades. Dommage... la prochaine fois je choisirai par moi-même. Par contre en terme de quantité on est bien rassasié !
Le dessert n'est pas indispensable, surtout quand c'est un beignet, ça vient alourdir le tout.

The quality of the food is high but I found it too salty for my taste. I drank the entire bottle of water & was thirsty through the evening when I returned home. The service was cordial but when it got busy I could see them forgetting a couple of things. That happens & that doesn't take away the experience as the service workers were kind & apologetic. This is my second time here. The first time was last year in the fall. I ordered different dishes the second time & still found it salty like the first time. I had the gyoza the first time didn't order them again as I found them bland. The tonkatsu was not bad but the sauce was (again)very salty. I preferred having them with just the lemon. The wafu salad was boring with only the greens with a little tempura pearls that does not justify that price range. Some other veggies could have made it more interesting & maybe worth the price point. The tan tan ramen dish I ordered was very salty including the tofu. Last year it was a curry ramen same thing very salty. If I had to choose between the two the tan tan was better. I didn't finish the broth due to the saltiness although I found the spice level perfect nonetheless. Dessert was good the yuzu ice "cream" was very refreshing & did clear the palate of the saltiness out of my mouth. I would like to come back & try different dishes from the last two times to compare. I didn't order any cocktails as I don't drink alcohol & just stuck with the water. The last time I ordered a non alcoholic version & was charged the same. Every other place reduced the price point as there was no alcohol or made it larger & added more juice. So this was why I stuck with the water.

Les Ramen, le dessert & le saké étaient excellents; le gyoza était très ordinaire & le enoki au champignon est peu intéressant par manque de saveur. Le service était inégal probablement par manque de serveurs. Nous y retournerions pour les ramens qui éataient suprebes.

Hit & miss. The wafu salad with chrysanthemum leaves sounded interesting, but the leaves themselves have a thistle-like texture & are not the best as a salad green. My shoyu ramen had a strong, salty broth that mostly tasted like mushroom soy sauce; pickled daikon, very forward on the sourness; shiitake mushrooms; wakame; & yuba, which had been grilled but otherwise not seasoned. So it was a mix of various flavours that did not feel like they belonged together; the daikon especially felt out of place. But honestly I just found the broth disappointing.

On the other hand, partner got the mapo tofu ramen which was delicious—rich, umami(!), & satisfying. For dessert, the mizu shingen mochi ("raindrop cake") was delicate, well balanced, not too sweet, & just generally an interesting eating experience.

So, a mixed bag!

Servers were friendly. The pace is very relaxed, on the slow side; we had about a 20 minute wait before our order was taken, followed by 20 minutes between each course.

Service & ambiance super. La dégustation de saké était vraiment intéressante. Desserts & petits « tapas » délicieux. J'ai moins aimé les Ramen.

Visiting from Toronto, we understand French when spoken to but speak very little. Female staff were snotty/rude, but the server who took care of us, he was wonderful. Polite & attentive. The food was great as well & it wasn't long after ordered that we received our appetizers, meal, & dessert.

Drink, entrées & dessert crème glacée au matcha délicieux. Ramen miso épicé un peu trop salé à mon goût, mais tout de même très bon! Tomate jaune confite pour l'imitation de jaune d'oeuf très original & délicieux!

Très bon souper avec le menu dégustation pour quatre personnes. Les plats sont raffinés & délicieux. Nous avons adoré le tempeh de pois & le steak de champignons.
Le dessert nous a malheureusement déçu. C'était une bulle gélatineuse (agar-agar) sucrée. C'était original mais insatisfaisant. Un peu trop « cuisine moléculaire » à notre goût. La crème glacée au matcha était toutefois délicieuse ainsi que le beigne!
Autre suggestion, ça serait bien de prévoir des rideaux ou panneaux dans les fenêtres lorsque le soleil se couche car c'était très éblouissant & dérangeant pendant notre repas d'avoir le soleil très fort dans le visage.
Merci!

très belle découverte. Menu dégustation à découvrir. Accord avec les saké en dégustation conseillé. Les desserts gagneraient à être repensés. Super service !
