A very interesting omakase experience focused on unique fish species you won't get elsewhere. Plus a few gourmet flourishes such as the monkfish liver piped into a puff pastry.

About the restaurant

"Proud to be featured in the Michelin Guide"
Zen Japanese Restaurant is aiming for the preservation of the traditional culture of Japanese cuisine, which gives the best impression of the cuisine to the patron while being loved by them.

Canada is a multi-cultural country comprised of people with diverse backgrounds. Zen Japanese Restaurant is formed, in part, from this diversity and strives to become a place where patron could dine comfortably. We believe that the restaurant is also a form of entertainment. By providing great service, beautiful food presentation and delicious cuisine we believe patrons will have the best impression possible of Zen Japanese Restaurant and Japanese cuisine. We believe, as long as we continue with this thought, it is natural for patrons to fall in love with Zen Japanese Restaurant.

A bright inviting dining room by day for a lively lunch, or a dim and sexy dining room in evening, perfect for date night. Fantastic and unique cocktails like our Smoked Negroni, and delicious smaller dishes to share such as our Deep Fried Brussel Sprouts with Sweet Chili Sauce and Smoked Peanuts are great conversation pieces!
