However, the miso soup was quite salty, and the tofu lacked softness—I'd recommend skipping it. The seaweed salad, while visually appealing, was rather dull in flavor and didn't have much seaweed. The dressing felt off, lacking the necessary vinegar kick to balance the sourness of the green papaya. I suggest passing on that as well and focusing on the sushi instead. The sushi itself was excellent, but I can only give three stars since they were out of tuna—apparently reserved for a special roll that was off-limits for us due to dietary restrictions. Overall, I found the experience underwhelming, especially considering the higher prices compared to other places. However, I’m willing to give it another try.

What I really liked about the Ste-Catherine st. location apart from the great sushi is the ambiance, it 's a relaxed ambiance, their other locations seem to be more lively .Had some wonderful sushi, salmon, shrimp, tuna, all very fresh. Drinks were nice and strong, try the margarita. The service was super attentive and welcoming

The staff were professional, sociable and attentive. Not once did I wonder about when a glass of water would be refilled or when we'd get the opportunity to order another dish or drink, they were always one step ahead. Cocktails were outstanding and the presentation was beautiful, truly tied the whole experience together. A serious 10/10 experience for me my friends.
