1234 De La Montagne, the former address of Le CINQ and the aptly named Club 1234 has returned to its hotspot status ⁠— this time in the form of Canada’s largest supper club.

Yoko Luna, a 20,000-square-foot fine dining supper club is set to open in the heart of downtown Montreal on Thursday, May 26. The large dining hall will feature “Nikkei” cuisine, which blends Japanese recipes with hints of Latin flavours and Peruvian fusion.

With a unique menu crafted by JEGantic Group, Executive Chef Andrew Bambino and locally-renowned celebrity Chef Hakim Chajar, Yoko Luna’s list of signature dishes will include the Luna Ceviche, with diced bluefin tuna, yuzu “leche de tigre,” jalapeno dashi, and cancha corn.

Along with an intricately created wine list, Yoko Luna’s cocktails are designed by famous mixologist and GQ’s most imaginative bartender finalist, Lawrence Picard. According to the JEGantic hospitality group, Yoko Luna’s signature cocktail is the Geisha, an homage to the large statue that overlooks the area as a whole.
