text: Takara is one of the worst sushisashimi restaurants in town Not only was the food disappointing but the ambiance was rather lackluster with cheesy s muzak playing in the background The biggest annoyance were the prices without question you are not paying for the quality of the food but rather for the high rent the owners are forced to pay at Les Cours Mont Royal nnI cannot comment on the entire menu but I can comment on the dishes that my friend and I orderedn Seaweed salad rather bland with a thick tasteless ginger dressing on the siden Soup do not remember the name the taste of the buckwheat noodles and a single tempura shrimp in broth was actually not bad although not worth the price n Sashimi too thin and poorly sliced with a few bones here and there Some of the pieces looked as if they were torn off of the fish which goes against traditional the Japanese art of food preparation n Hand roll fell apart upon carefully picking it upn Green tea tasted like the cast iron potn sake well cannot go wrong here thank goodnessn nIf you want to pay the same high prices I would suggest Zenya located near La Baie it is less traditional but you will pay the same price for better ambiance and delicious well prepared Japanese cuisine If youre not limited to the downtown core Maiko on Bernard and Mikado on Avenue Laurier are also very tasty
