Had reservations for 2 on a Saturday at the beginning of February. We used the valet services as well.
The staff were great, friendly, and accommodating. The food was very fresh and tasty. We ordered a large amount of plates and they spread them out during the 2 hours of our reservations. The drinks were top notch and they were not stingy on the alcohol! Would definitely recommend and am looking forward to going back, hopefully in the summertime so I can enjoy the terrasse.

The service was excellent, and they made really nice recommendations. Their twist on the espresso martini was absolutely exquisite, and I would recommend getting the mushrooms and miso dish! The interior design is so pretty too. We were not too much of a fan of the lavender cake, but it was still interesting.

I went last night with a friend.
Jatoba has nice ambiance, and friendly staff.
For food we had
- Auburi 12/10. When the wasabi hit my tongue, I felt like I was sent to heaven. The salmon was also very delicate and soft.
- Beef Tataki with the quinoa was a perfect combination 12/10
- Fried rice with foie gras. I usually have fried rice, but never. with foie gras. Expensive for fried rice, though I assume it’s because of the foiegras. Still an interesting combo, I enjoyed the foie gras
- Drinks were also pretty good

I really enjoy Jatoba. Chef Olivier Vigneault is an absolutely charm.
My partner and I extremely enjoy sashimi. Every time we go to Jatoba, we embarrassingly order the largest order of sashimi they offer... each. It's always super fresh and expertly cut.
The other dishes on their menu are also delicious. I recommend the duck fried rice and gyoza. They also have nice cocktails. A notable favorite that has remained on their menu for a few years is the Aloha Jatoba, which is a ginger flavored cocktail.
I would recommend Jatoba to anyone looking for high quality food and an overall enjoyable dining experience. Bon appétit!

Very elegant restaurant, great service. Food is amazing but maybe slightly over priced and the chairs are unfortunately very uncomfortable that s why it gets 4 and not 5 stars

This is such a great restaurant! You can immediately appreciate its beautiful interior, from the moment you get inside. We were well greeted and we had a great experience the whole time. The waiters were very knowledgeable about the different plates and were professional.
Food-wise... Honestly, I'm speechless. Every single plate was out of this world. The Nigiri Ora King Aburi literally melts in your mouth. The Ha Gao was packed with so much flavor. The Eggplants, Maki Hamachi Taru, Gyoza and Spare Ribs were delicious. The Seabass was cooked to perfection (Just a tiny touch of seasoning would have made it perfect). The Jatoba Black Cod.... It was one of the best plates I have ever tasted. The Cod stood out from all the other plates.
I appreciate how passionate the chef is at making these different plates. He/She loves his/her job. You can see and taste it clearly.
Thank you for this great experience. This is a must-visit location. I will come back.

Delicious food, nothing bad to say about that. Our server on the other hand, just did not care. Never once asked us how things were, we had to ask our busgirl to order more food.. it makes the experience way less enjoyable

Jatoba was a fantastic experience! The food, drinks and atmosphere were all fantastic and definitely worth checking out.
I tried a multitude of the dumplings and they were full of flavour and came with some really good sauces. My favourite dumpling was this fried mushroom dumpling. For my main course I tried the scallops and fried rice. The scallops were cooked to perfection nice and fluffy and a beautiful sear on top. However the rice was pretty disappointing, I think it was missing a little bit of salt since it did taste a little bland.
Overall it was a good experience but a quite expensive one if I might add!

This place is awesome! We had dinner on their terrasse, which I must say was absolutely gorgeous and I loved the fact that they have natural light coming in from the roof. The Jicama salad, sea food platter and the sushi was just impeccable. The staff was very accommodating and attentive and always made sure you had everything you needed. I would highly recommend this place, whether you're sitting at le "comptoir" or anywhere else in the restaurant, it is impossible not to embrace the beautiful charm of Jatoba.

This is definitely a chef restaurant. The menu is a fusion between European and Japanese kitchens and the outcome is stunning. I will not go through the menu but I'll say that each dish was delicious. The place and especially the patio is beautiful. If you are visiting in Montreal do not miss Jatoba!

The whole place is gorgeous, the cocktails have a beautiful presentation and so does the food. Everything was amazing. I loved the service and the staff was so nice and welcoming, very efficient and always around to make sure we were okay and had everything we needed. My boyfriend and I fell in love with this place and will definitely be back! :)

Le Chai Panna Cotta est absolument divin! Une explosion de saveurs avec des ingrédients surprenants. Diverses textures sont présentes dans l'assiette et chaque bouchée est unique. Un pur plaisir pour les yeux et les papilles!

Tres belle place. Belle ambiance et service excellent. Les sashimis et le homard au gingembre est incroyable. Merci pour la belle soiree.
Rob Czako
Wow! I had the black cod and fried vegetable rice. The cod was buttery moist, melted in my mouth. The rice what flavorful. Service was impeccable. Ambiance was good but a little loud (or maybe I'm just getting old!). I will be back!

Merci Chef Olivier Vigneault pour cette expérience culinaire exceptionnelle. C'est tout simplement extraordinaire d'être associé à des gens aussi talentueux et passionnés.
Merci pour ces moments de grâce!

Where to begin! Decor is stunning, drinks are made perfectly and are beautifully presented and the main event.. the food was incredible! You get what you pay for. high quality on all accounts and the service was very friendly as well. Definitely a bit pricier but worth it!
Marc-André Villeneuve
Superbe expérience, on était un groupe et on a pris la dégustation, on a donné notre budget (65 $ par convive dans notre cas) et on a mangé comme des rois !
Le service était excellent, attentionné et professionnel sans être guindé, notre serveuse Shannon était extraordinaire, mais aussi toute l'équipe de suiteurs et d'aide serveurs, on n'a jamais manqué de rien, les plats sont arrivés tous en même temps, rien à redire.
L'ambiance et le décor incitent à la convivialité, c'est très bien pensé.
Elsy Rauda
Absolutely loved everything about this place! The food, the drinks, the cozy ambiance and the service!
