Overpriced sushi and the quality wasn’t that good. Service was slow too, waited a while just for my drinks, wouldn’t go back for sure🙄

Went for ladies night. Ladies eat free, we just have to pay for our drink. Me and my girls were so excited for this, expecting to pay a bill of about 22$ (which is the price of the drink) plus tip. We were even considering tipping over 20% because the whole thing was so cheap. But when the waitress came to us, she told us that if we came on a regular day our food would’ve actually cost us about 80 dollars and so we should tip her on that amount instead. We were so confused and didn’t really understand how to respond to that situation and we just caved in because saying no was making us feel cheap. But we should’ve never had been made to feel that way. If our bill is 22$, we tip on that amount not on what the bill could’ve been. It is the restaurant’s policy so I don’t understand what made the waitress think this was okay. This basically doubled our bill and the waitress made a tip higher than what our bill was. Ridiculous. Will not be returning.

Hello Alissa, Thank you for taking the time to share this review. At Yubari, we currently do not host or advertise an evening on any day of the week labelled Ladies Night where ladies eat for free. Although the sentiment behind this incentive is lovely, we do not offer this experience nor menu option. We truly value hospitality at our core and the importance of friends choosing to enjoy one another’s company on a special night out at our establishment. Furthermore, friendly, warm and inviting service is also a key component to ensuring our guests have a positively memorable experience. Kindly, we would love to be in further contact with you regarding this review and look forward to hearing from you. At your convenience, please email us at [email protected] We hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead. Thank you. -Yubari Team.

Our server Fred was excellent, everything she recommended was incredible. Fresh sashimi, electric vibe and good service. There are two services so at times the restaurant might empty out however it will fill up again and the energy will re-ignite. Cocktails are good and off sushi menu times are great. Highly recommend and keep up the great work.

I was highly impressed! Honestly, above my expectations. The service was amazing, and they even helped us find a table that perfectly suited our needs even though it was Friday evening. The food was incredible. Literally everything we tried was delicious. My favorite were the wagyu maki topped with foie gras - absolutely unforgettable. Beautiful and creative design, ambient lighting, good music, and a great location. I would definitely come back:)

Overall, nice ambiance, friendly staff, and excellent service. Most of what we ordered was good, especially the Gyosa dumplings. The chicken karaage was a miss. It lacked flavor and tasted like plain fried chicken coated in a glaze. It could use a serious upgrade or be reconsidered as it didn’t match the quality of the rest of the menu. I’d still recommend this place.

The restaurant and ambiance is beautiful! But, the prices are WAY too high for the quality of sushi and portion sizes you get. Drinks also very expensive. You go for the experience, not expecting to eat the best sushi of your life.

A beautiful space located inside the St Paul hotel on the edge of Old Montreal. Great selection of food and cocktails- be prepared for the prices as they can be a bit of a sticker shock (my husband’s cocktail was $40 but was unique and he said it was amazing) and mine was also delicious. Server was really helpful, she explained every dish that came out. Our highlights were the ceviche and the scallop foie gras maki roll. A fantastic experience- reservations are suggested as the restaurant filled up quickly.

Food was underwhelming, the music was excessively loud, and the service needs significant improvement. We had to ask multiple times for basic items like napkins and utensils, which was frustrating. Considering the high prices, the portion sizes and quality didn’t match expectations. You can find much better food, atmosphere, and service at places like Juni or Parc. Would not recommend.

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 !
