The restaurant is one of the best I have ever been to in the entire region, especially for its price range the quality is phenomenal and the taste is a genuine experience you must try The fusion of Japanese cuisine with Vietnamese, Malaysian and French cuisine is an incredible combination The staff are absolutely on point, very kind, very social and treat customers with much respect and incredible service And the recently renovated decor is absolutely gorgeous, the atmosphere is incredible especially towards the end of the day The owner and head chef should and must be proud of this establishment and after several years of going it never loses its touch of quality and a joyous experience. Especially with friends

Can't say enough about this restaurant! Awesome food, presentation & service! The waitress also suggested dishes (at our request) & everything was delicious & well diversed! In my opinion, a must try restaurant if in the Drummondville area!

Never to return. We called ahead at 6:30 pm as we noticed the many negative reviews about inconsistent hours. The person who answered the phone said they would accommodate us until 8:30 pm. We arrived at 7:15 pm and they said that they were closed. I called him out about his false assurance and he and the manager/owner/chef? justified it saying it was a busy weekend and that they were all out of fish. Do yourself a favour and don’t waste your time or money on this place.

Sign should say :"Open when they feel like it". Showed up at 6:50 PM on a Wednesday night and the waiter said that the kitchen closed early. Don't trust the opening hours on the sign...

Food taste great, not the best sushi by far. (I lived in Montreal and Toronto) but it is definitely the best sushi in Drummondville!

If you happen to stop by Drummondville, it's a must. I believe it's the best sushi place in Quebec. The chef is a really nice man and the staff is always friendly. The service is impeccable. There is something to eat for everyone, fish or meat. The ribs, the teriaky salmon and all their sushi speciality are good. I have visited several times. This is not a traditional sushi place. They make unique things that you can't get elsewhere. The service is great but a little slow. It is great for a pleasant dinner and conversation. Try the Killer Bee - it is unique.

Hands down the ONLY place to get sushis. Until you go there, you haven't ate sushis. The quality of the ingredients and the freshness of it all is out of this world. Strongly recommend! My dad who never liked sushis has changed his mind tonight because of how exquisite everything was. The staff is very friendly and service was superb

We had the chef choice. The soup was very good, then we received the specialty of the chef. 4 pieces that have been laid on the sauce. The sauce has been absorbed by the sushi and at the end, you had something that does no longer deserves the name 'sushi'. This is not a traditional sushi place. They make unique things that you can't get elsewhere.

By far the best sushi we have eaten However, where we were seated we have two feet of distance from the table next to us so no real privacy. Otherwise, nice atmosphere, good sushi, good service and reasonable waiting time. I recommend!

I didnt think I would write this review of the restaurant that I loved so much before. First time in a few years that we havent gone to eat at nambu. Honestly the atmosphere was mediocre, we had to turn on our phone lights because we couldnt see anything. We had to rehearse because the music was so loud and in no way related to the guy in the restaurant. We wanted to order the cod and the beef tartare, main dishes and they were no longer on the menu, a menu which contains nothing less than 6 meals so we were left with 4 choices... the waitress came back to us later to tell us that there were 2 cod left. I had the cod and my partner had the general tao. It was so salty, our 2 dishes that we unfortunately did not finish our plates. It wasnt very good, I only tasted the amount of salt there was...I was disappointed with the whole evening. Even the cocktail was plain and flat. When we gave our opinion to the waitress she literally didnt seem to care. Disappointed, disappointed and disappointed!!! And then be patient because we were there for almost 2 hours. Im not telling you not to go but you will be disappointed!!!

Specialty sushi is a must, the best sushi! It s nice to be able to have a platter prepared to share with friends.

★★★
October 22, 2024

The sushi is so good!! Nothing to do with other competitors. They really are the best. However, be patient. We waited 1 hour to take our order and over 1h30 to receive our sushi. We had a reservation for 6:30 p.m. and ate at 8:45 p.m. This makes our experience a bit bitter.

2nd evaluation: 4* Order of $200 placed 1 week in advance for Thursday 5:00 p.m. There are no customers in the restaurant. They still found a way to deliver 15 minutes late. If its been months since you no longer offered beef tartare, it would be appreciated if you modified your menu. Please note, the menu prices on their website are not up to date. 1st rating: 5* Excellent restaurant! Beautiful atmosphere! Impeccable service! I will return there with pleasure.

The best sushi restaurant I have ever eaten in, Quebec and France combined! EVERYTHING is delicious! Of course it s expensive, but 8 rolls of sushi and then you re no longer hungry! We tend to buy 2 dishes at the start, but only one dish is enough! Their desserts are okay normal, and the pepper sauce on their filet mignon is to die for! So even for lovers of cooked products only, their shrimp, filet mignon and general tao will save your evening

Avoid during quarantine. I had memories of a pleasant place where the quality was worth the price. But after paying the price to bring, $36 worth of sushi appeared to me and my partner as a starter. Very disappointing in terms of quantity. The signature sushi we bought was never worth $16, the quality of what we had on our plate was no better than a sushi shop and the sushi were stacked on top of each other, for sure. are undone. I will not return until the pandemic is over.

Possibly the best sushi Ive ever eaten in my life. The service is attentive and pleasant, the decor is superb with its large open-plan kitchen. But the highlight of the evening is the sushi: generous, tasty, balanced, tasty, sophisticated, in short, they are extraordinary. However, a small downside is that when you eat near the front door in winter, it is very cold. Bring yourself a sweatshirt...
