My wife and I enjoyed a tremendous brunch yesterday morning at Jfuse. We have dined at this restaurant numerous times and have always eaten very well from their varied menu. This was our first time trying their new brunch menu. The restaurant’s beautiful interior is filled with light from its floor to ceiling windows. The professional service is always friendly and efficient whether for brunch, happy hour or dinner. We have become accustomed to unique dishes at Jfuse and it was no different at yesterday’s brunch. We had their mushroom toast and teriyaki beef eggs Benedict. We opted for half potato’s/half salad to accompany the two dishes. Everything was as simply delicious. The excellent mushroom toast was topped with mushroom tempura and had extra flavour from the addition of truffle oil. The generously portioned teriyaki beef was tender and flavourful and the eggs were perfectly poached. The miso hollandaise added another delicious layer of flavour to the dish. The potatoes and salad were excellent as well. We look forward to returning for brunch again soon as there are many more interesting choices on their menu.

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner and we both found it to be very medicore. We ordered the tasting box to share, the salmon crudo and the fatty tuna sashimi. The service and atmosphere were fine, but the quality of the food and the expensive prices were disappointing.
The tasting box was okay, the rolls weren't bad but only because they used so much sauce it masked the bad quality of the fish. The pressed sushi was not great. The best thing we had was the brussel sprout salad.
The tuna sashimi was just bad. You can tell the fish was not fresh from the mushy texture and fishy aftertaste. They use fish that's been frozen for days.
Same with the salmon crudo, weird texture and fishy aftertaste. The dill they used was also not fresh, some of it was yellow.

Finally, a wonderful sushi place in Ottawa with attention to detail, wonderful service and creative ambiance.

Had a awesome experience at Jfuse with friends and family, and also being our second time here. Our 2 waitresses were very accommodating and even helped share the proper way to eat the tako wasabi which was amazing. The drinks came out quickly and efficiently & all our food was brought out the same way, and no one on our table of 7 was waiting to long for their food to come out either. Flavour in the food was incredible & inviting & the sashimi was fresh & full. Atmosphere was busy but to be expected as we were dining in at their peak hour. Overall a very good experience, nothing bad to report.

I really recommend the Hokkaido Hotate Crudo (scallop in green sauce)and the Island signature roll (video), these are really unique plates that will satisfy if you have a passion for culinary art, and you cannot really find else where in the city. Plus don’t worry about the taste, everything was as amazing as they look. The waiter and waitress are also very caring and super friendly. I will definitely come back!

The BEST sushi I’ve had in my life. I tried so many places all over the world in search of sushi that tasted the same as this spot but I have yet to find one. Truly an ottawa hidden gem. Everything is so fresh and goes down like butter, the flavour profile is ummatched

It was our first time visiting, and everything exceeded our expectations! The service was excellent from start to finish. Our waitress took the time to walk us through the entire menu, which made the experience even more special. The food and wine+drinks were all outstanding, and I even had the chance to chat with the chef/owner, which I was glad to meet and share my experience with directly. We can’t wait to come back again!
Thanks to the whole team, congrats !

I had an outstanding dining experience at Jfuse. The quality of the sushi really stood out — everything was fresh, cleanly prepared, and beautifully presented. My personal favorite was the o-toro, which just melted in my mouth and was one of the best I’ve had in the city. I highly recommend ordering the omakase selection if you want to experience the chef’s creativity and the best of what Jfuse has to offer. Each piece felt carefully chosen and balanced, making the meal both exciting and memorable. The cocktails were also a pleasant surprise — well-crafted, refreshing, and thoughtfully paired with the food. It’s clear the bar team puts just as much care into their drinks as the kitchen does with the sushi. On top of everything, the service was excellent. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, always making sure we were comfortable and explaining dishes when needed. Their warm and professional approach really elevated the whole evening. Overall, Jfuse delivers on every level: fresh sushi, inventive drinks, and top-notch hospitality. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to friends and colleagues.

came here to celebrate my birthday and I was very excited as I love their sister restaurant j:unique. I tried the sampler box which was a great way to get a little bit of everything. but the sushi rice was consistently falling apart! I expect more from a higher end sushi spot. I also found the timing of the service weird. we had four people eating and for the beginning of the meal only two people had food.

Food was great and the place was super cute! Fair warning if you’re going to host any sort of birthday dinner or event here - they are very unprofessional and not accommodating. They had weeks in advance and also knew I was bringing in a table of 10, they did not inform us at any point in time between reserving and the actual dinner that last call was 9:15 (had multiple points of communication between then). At the dinner when we were told about last call ~15 mins before the server did not mention that it included drinks. A menu item multiple people ordered they didn’t mention until last minute that they were sold out, then gave us about 3 seconds to order something else given the last minute last call notice.
When we called about bringing a cake they said no outside food, we can photograph and slice and serve but “not eat” - they only agreed when extra money was offered. Then after blowing out candles and asking for a knife to cut the cake, we were told we “had about 10-15 minutes to eat” - mind you this was nudged even before 10pm (closing time). The staff just kind of stood around looming over us, basically rushing us to scarf down cake and open presents. I pressure in a rush we had to navigate a second space for a group of 10 and ended up having to relocate and bring all the presents, cake, and flowers elsewhere to slice and eat.
I understand there are rules in place but no proper warning was given - otherwise I would have chosen another place to celebrate. Unfortunate because I really did enjoy the food, but myself along with my guests were uncomfortable and it definitely ruined my birthday experience, so because of that I’m super deterred to go back. For the sake of future guests please coordinate better with management and staff - if you have strict rules have your servers enforce them more clearly so that your customers are aware so they don’t need to go through what we did! Even better - give a heads up while booking to avoid any sort of confusion or miscommunication.

We visited JFuse on the recommendation of friends, and it certainly lived up to the hype. Between the two of us, we ordered four dishes along with some beer: salmon tartar, oysters, shrimp (Ebi Mayo), and the JFuse roll. Every dish was fabulous, but the shrimp stood out so much that we immediately ordered a second round. The atmosphere was casual and inviting, and the service was superb from start to finish. The only thing we regret is not discovering this place sooner, especially to take advantage of their outdoor space during the warmer months. That said, we’ll definitely be coming back. The bill came to about $100 for everything, which feels like a steal these days given the quality of food and experience. Highly recommend!
