Restaurant TAKASHI in Saint-Leonard

Takashi is a small neighborhood restaurant (St-Léonard). The tartars are delicious as are the sushi. The sushi combo is made up of rather ordinary sushi. You have to try the specialty sushi. Don t forget to bring your wine or sake!

Excellent, nice atmosphere, great food, owners very nice.

Always good and very kind owner

Definitely the best sushi restaurant I had the chance to go to yesterday with my family! Plus, it s a bring your own wine ! I highly recommend this good restaurant in St-Leonard! Just cant wait to go back! Thanks to our server and cooks, the experience was PERFECT!

The best sushi youve ever had! I am a big fan of Besame mucho and Salmon Sumo because of the texture in the mouth and the excellent sauce that accompanies it! The service is courteous and it s a BYOB! The party sometimes takes place on Friday and Saturday evenings

waited 10 minutes and server glanced at us and didn t serve us

Always a pleasure to come and eat at Takashi. We love the BYOB option and all the sushi is delicious. I recommend the golden eye, besame mucho, titanic, mint Fuji . Too delicious. Enjoy your food!

Fabulous! Fresh and original flavors, friendly service and magnificent presentation!

The service was 10! I would come back just because I had a nice and polite waiter

We went to eat there without really knowing the restaurant. And it was a very good surprise, the food is very good and the service is excellent. I have nothing to say. Just be careful on the sushi menu, it says that they have flying fish...note that its caviar!

Wow super nice discovery for a first visit everything was very good eating no.1 service no.1 atmosphere no.1 I will return shortly thank you to all your team well done

The best sushi restaurant in Montreal, you have to try the specialties. A very creative chef.

Great food and service, highly recommend.

This was the best sushi I have had in looong time

The sushi is excellent and varied!

All the dishes brought to the table were delicious (chefs choice). We will come back, thank you

This is a good Japanese restaurant if you want to eat well I tell you go to takashi the best restaurant I have tasted really good its high quality very clean

Best place in town to eat Sushi. The chef and the service is incredible

An excellent discovery this evening ! The sushi (combo for 2) was very good and our server Billy was really friendly. I recommend . Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free sushi option available

Everything was perfect!!!

This restaurant is exceptional, I was able to taste the best sushi I have ever eaten. The discovery menu is a real delight, I recommend it 100 times.

Deplore!

i went there on valentines with my girlfriend and it was the worst place ever. Wonton soup was gross, not even wonton is taste like chicken. The sushi was even worse, took us about 1 hour and 30 minutes to get our food for it not to be good. NEVER GOING AGAIN Parking: there s no parking at all, you have to find parking on the streets

I would give 5 stars, I and my friend were well received, the staff were smiling, friendly, their service is impeccable. The food is so good, the plates are well stocked, I highly recommend it.

Dinner with my BFF Bring her A1 service, Billy was an excellent host, server and chef, his recommendations WOW! We tried the 3 sushis in the photos, were still drooling! Its worth the quality/price!!! Thanks Billy!!!

Suchi impeccable, I will come back

Friendly staff, always busy, karaoke at night Great for parties. Nice place Vegetarian options: Yes

The best sushi ive ever eaten , worth every simple penny. Billy the best host ive ever had!!! MUST TRY recommendation SUSHI GOLDEN!!

Best sushi place in Montreal . Must try . It s worth the time and restaurant is beautiful.

Great food and service!

Last night we dinned at TAKASHI. FOOD, PRICE & SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT PLUS, YOU CAN BRING YOUR WINE! Ash Billy to prepare you special dishes. CANT BEAT THIS WINNING COMBINATION. BOB FROM ST. LAURENT.

Really a great discovery!!! The dishes and service are perfect

Food is fantastic service is impeccable.

Would go back.

Excellent service, reasonably priced, its a bring your own wine, beautiful restaurant and very good food. To recommend!

Always a Good experience and bring your Vino!

Last time my friends ate their the service was pretty good, I went their and waited way to long

Food great, service great. We had a $250 bill but used a $100 certificate. Made an innocent mistake of tipping on the $150 (clicked the automatic % on the Card machine) waiter who I found out is the owner came back and pointed out that we should have tipped on the pre certificate total. Asked for extra $$$ to bring the tip to 20%. Gave a 2 star for the reason. He ruined what was a pretty good night out. Ended up a bad experience and won t go again. Message to owner. Hope the extra $20 was worth it!

Very good little neighborhood restaurant

Still so good!!!!

I hecking loved it here

Amazing food, the Bésame Mucho sushi and Tao Dynasty chicken are a must try!!

Wonderful

Perfect place to eat and the ambiance is warming

Very nice experience returning very early . Thank you very much to all the team!

We love all the food at this resto! It is a must go in Montreal!!

I love my dinners but also their professionalism. I am very, very happy to have met them and to be part of their world

Always as good and impeccable service

Please do not eat here ,horrible sushi,the tempura is not even tempura,it is veggies smuthered in some batter and fried ,I only felt the oil going down .. We got the sushi platter ,I got sushi made out of canned tuna, please find a chef, do decent food ,shame on you to call yourself a sushi restaurant.

If you want to have a great experience, this is the place!! The quality and service is impeccable!! Everything is so freshly made you will not be disappointed!! It s a must !! La Conca d Oro Family Alexia, Diana & Sergio

Excellent service and dishes to share that surprise us! Kudos to chef and owner Billy for the relaxed, unpretentious ambiance accompanied by high quality dishes!

The food was good and the quantity was acceptable. On the other hand, I took away a star for the service which was cold. The waiter seemed tired and impatient. I am removing another star for a personal reason, this is the first time that there is no water in the fountain!!... You absolutely have to buy bottled water. Maybe this will be customary in all restaurants who knows....

Refined dishes. Competent waitress. We will return. Honest prices. We recommend

Uhhh Are there still people who dont know TAKASHI??? My God, your culture is missing zamis! Billy is the best of the best

This restaurant does not offer water in a carafe, forced sale of bottled water. Blatant theft, SHAMEFUL. The food is really not that great.

RUN AWAY!!!! Tap water is not offered, you are forced to buy bottled water!! 1st time in 6 years that I have seen this! And they get even more angry when we explain to them that it s a shame to act like this! Go eat elsewhere, I just hope that these merchants will only get what they deserve: empty tables. And in the meantime, no tips for them, fortunately from us!

RUN RUN RUN! To put it simply and concisely, we got sick 2 hours after eating their sushi. Fish not fresh, sushi from an all-you-can-eat restaurant is of better quality. The service is over. Restaurant to avoid! Pay $130 to get sick 2 hours later!

Pay for water. Best before the pandemic.

One of the safest restaurants in Montreal, the freshness of the products as well as the cleanliness of the staff is very rigorous, a good restaurant bring your own wine at a reasonable price, yes they do not offer a pitcher of water and you have to pay $1 for a good bottle of cold Naya water with covid I would take the bottle of water anyway.

A super nice restaurant with exquisite food and sensational service!!

Perfect!! The cleanliness of the restaurant is impeccable! And the measures for covid are very present!

An extraordinary place very good gastronomy a beautiful atmosphere with excellent service I am very satisfied thank you very much see you very soon

Simply the best sushi And what s more, Billy and Vinya are incredible hosts!

Super best sushi in the world

The best sushi experience

Warm staff. Excellent food.

Going to Takashi is a pure delight. We are very well served by the staff and the food is extraordinary. I recommend everyone to take the chefs choice. It always tastes great and the presentation of the dishes is fantastic. We cant wait to go back.

Best sushi

Order was precise and sushi amazing!!

The foods is very good with reasonable price. I love their colourful terrasse

Best place ever for sushi. Extra good, fresh and original. The service and owner are extraordinary

Visited the place twice and still enjoyed like the first time. Nice atmosphere, nice vibes, great staff and for sure great Food.

A memorable dining experience Everything is good, the chefs specialties Wow, quite a delight

Quality / Price / Service is excellent

Delicious!! Very good price and excellent service!! I want to go back !

Great dining experience and delicious sushi. Chef Billy is a master! Must visit

Disappointed by the welcome. Cold atmosphere. We dont serve water, you have to buy a bottle of water if youre thirsty. I dont drink bottled water, he wanted to force me to buy some... I needed to take medicine so I had to negotiate to finally get a glass of tap water.. Disappointed...

Had Lunch Menu General Tao meal and it tasted as if it had been refried. Batter was hard and chicken seemed like rock inside.The noodles were sitting in a poodle of some sweet sauce and they became the part of lunch I ate. This dish is no longer what it used to be at this establishment. It s really too bad. It s twice I return after pandemic and unfortunately may be the last. Parking: Easy to park on side streets

Best sushi in Montreal!!!

Food was delicious, service was in the slow side but very friendly!

The food is always original and wonderful. Unfortunately, the price/quality ratio is not what it used to be.

Beautiful place, very nice... succulent & very fresh sushi... especially the specialties of chef Billy The Kiss a must! Courage & good continuity Takashis gang A+

For my part, my experience in this restaurant was disastrous both in terms of the dishes and the staff. If we look at the dishes, they were too poorly cooked, too oily, there was no salt and therefore no taste! The staff was cold, not attentive and very unprofessional.

Overpriced, Service EXTREMELY rude, portion very small with poor quality of food. There s plenty of sushi restaurants in the area try other places. Don t waist your time and money.

Amazing service, we left it to the chef to decide for us and were not disappointed! They really catered to our table and dietary needs. 5 Stars!

Simply excellent!

Good enbience good food

Excellent

Perfect sushi, very fresh and beautiful presentation. Warm welcome despite quiet location on a Wednesday evening (uncrowded area)

The chef was able to present exceptional cuisine while paying attention to my food allergy! To do again without hesitation

Over priced and rude

A great surprise. We were looking at a last minute for a nice restaurant. It was a great expérience with awesome food, its not like a normal sushi place, they have great tapas with also sushi that have great comtent & sauce with a low amount of rice.

The food and presentation will pleasantly surprise you. Good service.

Yesterday I went for the first time, we were a group of 8 the service was impeccable and what can I say about the sushi, a pure delight Best sushi to date I have tasted 5 types I recommend without hesitation

Thank you good service

Excellent and original sushi! The rice is so tender A delight!

Excellent

Love this place ..Always great food and service !

Good atmosphere and good food!

The sushi is delicious. Dont hesitate to ask for the tasting experience where you will delight in the wonderful sushi and tartates. Excellent service 3A. A big thank you to Billy and his wife for their welcome and exemplary service.

Exceptional culinary experience

I love this restaurant for the good food, the quality of the products and the friendly staff.

Went with some friends a couple of weeks ago. All in all a great experience. Food was good and reasonable price.

Fantastic!!! As always.

My best restaurant! Style Tapas with Japanese/French flavor and their sushi . Ask the chefs for inspiration for sushi that is out of the ordinary. But the best is the tapas. Plus Bring your own wine!! I introduced this restaurant to all my friends and they loved it and they went back more than once. Always great service and very friendly owner and employees.

I find that their specialties are excellent, the other sushis are very ordinary

very good food, lots of options!!!! ambiance was fun

Super good service, very good food, wonderful atmosphere!

Food was very fresh! A bit too packed in with tables very close to each other.

Great welcome and health measures are well respected. I love this restaurant, my favorite!!! See you soon !!

When I went there at the start of Covid everything was very good in terms of health measures and the food too of course :)

Excellent service, covid measures well respected, excellent value for money.

Tasty

Very good restaurant and very good service!!! Me and my friends were very well received this Friday. The sushi is excellent and the salmon tartare is simply divine!

Great service, food and team. Feel free to just stop by and get a great meal - Perfect for families, teams and groups wanting space and service to go with it!

Super friendly chef, fast service and delicious dishes! Recommended

Excellent place! Best sushi in east Montreal. The chef-owner is attentive and focuses on quality and freshness

Delicious sushi, fast service, reasonable prices, very helpful staff.

The restaurant closes at 8:30pm on Saturday and we called at 8:10pm. The receptionist, who also appears to be the owner of the restaurant, was almost on the verge of refusing to take my order. I should have known that it wasnt a good idea to continue giving my order, this kind of attitude from the owner indicates that the kitchen will probably botch our order. This is actually what happened. The fried dumplings, cold because I imagine they left that first so they could close their machines and scream their camp. So they were overcooked and undercooked at the same time...!! They stuck together during cooking and the dough did not cook at the junction of the two dumplings. They put a decoration of salad and carrot spirals and there was a chunk of blackened and wet lettuce in the dish. When I called to complain, because even though I never do that because I know that the kitchen and the restaurant staff in general work hard despite everything, the receptionist who I hope is the owner OR that the owners are aware that the receptionist acts in this way towards customers, replied to me that: the salad is decoration ... I was like... ok? So you put rotten lettuce in a $10 dish but its aight because its decoration? Oh yes and she told me to put my dumplings back in the oven until the dough was cooked...! So basically, I paid $10 for 5 overcooked and undercooked dumplings with rotten lettuce, and the lady didnt want to reimburse me. .... too complicated So Im a cook and I know very well how a terminal works. Its easy to repay. Also, at $10 for a plate of 5 (mofo) dumplings you better get it perfectly gurl. Customer service from people who have no respect for the intelligence of their customers.

The food was great and considering the amount of people in the restaurant the service was good .

A bit on the expensive side for sushi but the food was really top notch.

Great atmosphere lots of people very busy good for groups had a great time

You need to have it at least once

The place in Montreal for sushi, the owners are incredible

Nice place, friendly service, great sushi, presentation was nice too

Very good, nice atmosphere, quality/price

Very good sushi and very nice atmosphere, owner explained to us very well what we should have and we can bring our drink

Great service n a great meal

We went twice and ordered the chefs choice (delicious surprises!), very pleasant atmosphere, will definitely return. Very good service.

Super good, very different from the usual sushi restaurants, you will be pleasantly surprised!!! The chef is super nice too!

Super nice place and friendly staff. Food was amazing.. Definitely will return there soon

Fresh salmon, amazing sushis and their ice cream tempura to die for! Excellent service a little gem in St-leo

Great food. Came here by chance in February - we loved it so much we brought our 19 year old daughter for a birthday dinner. She loved it. The appetizers, the sushi, the dessert, everything delicious. The service second to none. We will be back again. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. Maria D

Cute neighborhood Asian eatery with a reasonably priced Express lunch time menu. Restaurant is a bring your own wine place. Food was good for the price but nothing to write home about . Service was prompt and courteous. Dont plan to go back.

Awesome food !

Solid meal, enjoyed my time there

Excellent place for lunch or supper the owners are fantastic people. BRING YOUR OWN WINE!

Great service, and original idea of oreding little portions to make our meal!

I use to like this restaurant till tonight...Sushi very good calmari good, chicken teriyaki so so salty. Mentioned it to the waiter the waiter spoke to the owner, the owner came to excuse himself.. He explained that they had a new chef, and yes indeed he admitted it was salty.. They still charged us for the 2 plates.

Not bad

High quality tapas and sushi with wonderful flavors and attentive service. Great for a special occasion!

Thumbs up keep up the great dishes

Super good meal with Chef Billy the Kiss You I recommend this restaurant 100% great service and what can I say about the flawless food. I will definitely go back.

Lunch time .is excellent and well priced NIGHT TOME ..NOT SO...

Very good food and good welcome

Super good food

Tasty, inventive and interesting Asian Tapas menu. Sushi are also always quite good. The service is quick and friendly and the waitstaff always offer to, and easily explain menu items. We usually sit outside on the terrace, but since it was chilly and quite windy, we sat inside this time. Debating whether to remove one or 2 stars because the music became really loud as the evening progressed to the point that we had to practically shout to each other to be heard. We therefore left after the mains and had coffee and dessert elsewhere, which actually turned out to be worth the displacement.

Excellent cuisine, always well served. :)

Delicious but pricey

So so. Nothing special and wow!

Service is impeccable food is always amazing

Wonderful resto in the St Leonard area that is BYOW. Very good food with great tasteful options. I was impressed. Vibe and ambiance is nice as well. Gives the downtown feel in the east end. Calamari option was delicious when I was there last time. Every place will have choices you like and dislike but Im sure theres more to like here. Staff was very helpful and again its BYOW with descent food so whats too complain about. Some reviews here are quite harsh giving this place in 1* . I will surely be back and I travel from Little Italy and recommend this place to my east end friends/family.

Very nice place and exquisite plates! A1 service provided by Raffi. Came here for a family supper and it was great! We ate like kings and queens for a decent price! Kids friendly as well with their menu. My favorite is definitely the besame mucho roll! You need to try the spicy octopus in sashimi (not on the list but you can request the chef to make it!) only downside is there is no sea urchin or hamachi on the menu. Would be great if they can add a roll with foie gras or a torched salmon with foie gras!

Simply excellent, the chefs choice is incredibly succulent.

Normally, I have 2 go to spots for sushi in Montreal. I went here for someones birthday and did not expect much but was pleasantly surprised. For people in the east end who dont want to drive to far for good sushi, I recommend this place.

Answer: Hello, I was disappointed with the ceviche which had very little seafood cut into pieces. (I ate ceviches where we were given whole shrimp, scallops and tentacles). As well as the fish tartare filled with rice and very thin layers of fish. The lobster roll was filled with tempura as well. However, I order to really taste the fish or lobster. Im not a fan of filling a dish with something else when the star product should be highlighted. There wasnt enough unfortunately.

Good meal

Very good service and very tasty dishes
