Watch sushi being displayed on floating boats while sitting in the sushi bar at C’est Japon
À Suisha, a traditional Japanese restaurant in Centretown. Open since the ’70s, this restaurant offers private rooms and Japanese-style tatami rooms that will make any business lunch all the more interesting and noteworthy.
Suisha is Japanese for waterwheel, and you’ll recognize the place by the full-sized one up a couple of steps from sidewalk level. Established in 1974, Suisha owes its longevity only partly to its richly decorated interior. The owner is Japanese trained, and brings an authentic approach to the sushi bar. Around the bar, pint-sized wooden boats transport plates of fresh, well cut fish. But, downstairs is where to sit for romantic surroundings, thanks to a waterfall.
