If you like real sushi, hands down in Montreal has to be Juni on Laurier street. Its chic, decent price for the quality and the chef is a real Itamae (Japanese Sushi Chef). I also like Zen-Ya for its setting, but the quality of the fish is not as good as Juni. If you're not too crazy about sushi but like the idea of a Japanese-Themed restaurant, then go to Sho-Dan. Being a sushi addict, I can't recommend its sushi as they don't have a large selection and to be honest don't trust it. But they offer some decent teriyaki style meals.

The locals call this place "The Chicken Nazi". If you don't mind being a little insulted, their chicken is awesome. You might want to order a few hours ahead tho.

Nice little portuguese place. Same type as chicken as the two above.
I love BBQ chicken. But once you've tasted the portuguese touch... you'll never have anything else

The "dégustation" menu is insane. For about 200$ per person (yes sounds pricey) you get a 7 course meal served with 1 glass of the best wine to accompany each course. When you consider that some of these bottles you get go for 150$ each... price dosen't seem to drastic anymore... quite nice!

I've been going to this place for many years. Typical French restaurant, great food... they have an awesome late-night special of 21$ from 9PM-Midnight. Can't beat that!

If you're into game meat... this is the place.
Let me know what you think!
Maybe I should create a google maps of all the restaurants in this thread??
Bon appétit!
