Jun I

Jun I is definitely at the top of the sushi food chain in Montreal alongside Park. They are creative with their rolls but not at the expense of the quality of the ingredients. They respect their fish and serve you top quality, fresh pieces. I booked a week ago because I was craving some uni and this is one of the only places in town that I would trust to serve me fresh ones. Arrived there and was told it's unavailable tonight. Annoying? No, reassuring. I was told the toro is good today. It was melt-in-your-mouth awesome! If you've been eating sushi at our favorite local shop, do yourself a favour and go eat here.

Superb fish. Probably sushi I have ever had. I’m originally from Vancouver and currently living in Toronto. The spicy hamachi was our favorite of the night. The only thing was that they gave us wooden take out chopsticks and I would’ve preferred something a little nicer to match the rest of the vibe. Great waiters and staff who are trained well and have good knowledge of the fish. However this could be just because of COVID so it’s not a big deal and I will definitely be coming back.

We ordered the omakase - the dishes themselves are very flavourful and great but the maki and sushi were disappointing. Quality of the fish did not taste fresh and rice was too mushy - when trying to pick up each piece, the rice would fall apart. We did leave feeling full but unsatisfied, especially after reading all the positive reviews of this place.

I’ve had the pleasure of dining here twice & at both times, I was wowed by the quality of the food and the service. Everything is always fresh and meticulously prepared, down to the most minute detail. The sushi melts in your mouth and leaves you with a lasting impression (I was craving for it as soon as the next day!) The sashimi was impeccable, probably the best I’ve had so far in Montreal. Service is always courteous and attentive. Amazing place for dinner on any day! Thank you, Chef Junichi! We’ll definitely be back for more.
