Okeya Kyujiro is a theatrical-style Omakase dining establishment with branches located in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver.
Description
Okeya Kyujiro maintains venues in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver. Its Montreal branch holds the distinction of being the first Omakase restaurant in the city to operate exclusively by reservation. Situated in downtown Yaletown, the Vancouver location delivers what the Vancouver Sun describes as a "solemn, lavish, theatrical omakase experience."
Reception
The Vancouver site has been awarded a Michelin star and was honored with the 2023 MICHELIN Guide Vancouver Service Award. Additionally, it received an honorable mention in the Best New Restaurant category during the 2023 Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards. According to Noms Magazine, the dining experience combines the grandeur of Cirque du Soleil with traditional kabuki artistry, emphasizing its creative presentation.
In 2025, the Montreal restaurant earned a 'Recommended' status in Quebec’s first-ever Michelin Guide, signifying its use of high-quality ingredients and well-crafted dishes that narrowly missed star recognition.
