This was our second time back at Yubari.. there was a little mishap our first visit but we were offered to come back for a second try…. And what an amazing choice that was. Some of the best sushi in all of Montreal. Anyone coming to visit Montreal and is craving sushi this has to be at the top of the list. Thank you Yubari for an amazing dinner and a special thanks to our server/manager Taryn. We will DEFINITELY be back !

The food is always amazing, however, the service was awful. My friends and I had a reservation yet were only seated an hour after. With having a reservation this should not happen, it’s un professional. They overbooked completely. Not only was my table waiting but every table before and after us. The receptionist was also rude and not helpful. I wouldn’t go back for this specific reason.

Restaurant is so beautiful inside, and the food and cocktails were amazing. I got a p⭐️ martini and it was 10/10. But the only thing was that we had to wait over an hour to be seated. We had a reservation for 9pm and we were only seated at 10:13. Usually when restaurants make u wait a while when u had a reservation they accommodate you with some free drinks or maybe even finger food to eat but we ended up just waiting the whole hour without no one updating us at all.

High-end pricing for terrible service. Unless you are a certain race, they will not welcome you, let alone, wanna serve you. Ironic as this is a Japanese-themed restaurant, and we were the only asians lol.

Yubari is a small Japanese restaurant tucked into the heart of the Old Port that delivers a surprisingly refined dining experience. The first thing that stands out is the atmosphere. The space is compact, but the tables are thoughtfully arranged, which keeps the room from feeling crowded. The layout creates a comfortable flow where conversations remain intimate rather than drowned in noise. The low lighting adds warmth, and the presence of a live DJ gives the restaurant a subtle lounge energy without overpowering the dining experience. The food is excellent. Each dish is carefully prepared and beautifully presented, with the kind of balance and precision you expect from a high-quality Japanese kitchen. The menu manages to feel both refined and approachable, making it easy to explore a few different plates. Service is another highlight. The waiters and waitresses are attentive and genuinely helpful when it comes to recommendations. They guide you through the menu with confidence and enthusiasm, which makes the experience feel personal rather than transactional. Overall, Yubari is a great spot if you are looking for excellent Japanese cuisine in a stylish but relaxed setting. The combination of outstanding food, thoughtful service, and a well-curated atmosphere makes it one of the more enjoyable dining experiences in the Old Port.
