    First time at JaBistro My partner and I love Japanese food , and found the quality and freshness of the fish unparalleled anywhere in the city. The pre- seasoned dishes were something new for us, and have to say the Chefs were spot on, extremely flavourful, beautifully presented For starters we had the blue fin tuna belly and scallop hand rolls , both well done and a nice start For mains we ordered the tiger shrimp and scallop rolls which were seasoned to perfection and perhaps best Tiger shrimp we have had. Well done. We are not dessert fans so skipped this but the pannacotta and sorbet looked very good and well presented. Our server Sophia was very attentive and accommodating. Overall i rate this restaurant a 4.3/5 , I would rate higher if there was more selection.

    It was a beautiful space with a great menu. The variety and quality was awesome. We got there around 3:30 and service was great, but definitely declined as the time passed and the restaurant got busier. I don't believe anyone checked on us when it came to our meals. It was more just drop off and clean up.
