Upon entering JaBistro the first thing you notice is a black wall with a cute white glowing fish, “An-chan, the footballfish” instantly brings a smile to my face setting the mood for the rest of the evening.
“An-chan, the footballfish”
My friends made reservations earlier in the week, when we arrived at the restaurant our table was ready. JaBistro definitely has a modern feel, the interior is a combination of light wood and expose brick walls. The bar seats are located on the left side of the restaurant where you can enjoy a front row view of the chefs working their creative magic. On the right side of the restaurant are tables where you can have a one on one/group dining experience.
This is what we ordered for dinner …
Mashi Berry Cocktail
I asked for the fruitiest drink on the menu and this is what our server recommended 🙂 Fresh strawberries, yum!
Sashimi Platter
The presentation is a work of art, this picture doesn’t do it justice! The quality of the sashimi was fresh, probably one of the best in the city.
Lobster miso soup
If you order a Sashimi Platter, you can add a $30 Lobster option. This comes with Lobster tail sashimi and Lobster miso soup’s, no lobster parts were wasted.
JaBistroll – salmon, snow crab, uni, cucumber, tobiko
&&
Aburi – chef’s choice of blowtorched nigiri, oshizushi
JaBistroll – One word ‘Delicious’ 🙂 I could have ate two whole rolls myself, Its that good! Aburi – No sauce is required, each piece of blowtorch sushi has a unique smoky flavour.
Ebi nanban – battered tiger shrimp, tartar sauce
This dish exceeded my expectations, something about that tartar sauce!
Green Tea Tiramisu dessert
Even the dessert is beautifully presented… with fresh fruits, chocolate, and a generous amount of matcha green tea powder 🙂
The service was amazing, our server was pleasant and very knowledgeable. The staff were attentive, our glass were never empty because someone was always refilling our water. Our plates were changed often so we could enjoy the implacable flavours of each dish. If you are a Japanese food lover, I would highly recommend visiting this cute Japanese modern restaurant! 🙂
