I go regularly to this restaurant and the food is always great as well as the atmosphere. Great venue to celebrate and the music is low enough to allow easy discussions.

I had a wonderful experience at this sushi restaurant. The quality of the food was exceptional — every roll was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can truly taste the freshness of the ingredients in every bite.The staff were equally impressive. They were warm, attentive, and very professional, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Their recommendations were thoughtful and added to the overall experience.The drink selection was also excellent. The alcohol menu offered a great variety, from perfectly paired sake to refreshing cocktails, all served with care and elegance.Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. I would definitely return and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates great sushi, outstanding service, and a refined atmosphere.

The ambience and decor was stunning. The service was very attentive and unhurried. Our server (also the bartender) had great suggestions and the drinks were amazing Food was presented beautifully and delicious - sashimi premium platter was second to none Only minor criticism - duck fried rice was too salty.

My wife and I has an incredible experience at Yubari this evening. I celebrated my 40th birthday by having dinner here. It was a bit of a last minute decision and I couldnt be happier how it turned out. The entire experience blew me away. Ariel took the best care of us throughout the entire meal. She was so friendly and an absolute delight to chat with. She was extremely helpful with menu item recommendations that were absolutely perfect for us. It was a pleasant surprise when we arrived and realized there was a DJ playing music. His music selection was the perfect addition to enhance an already perfectly curated atmosphere. I am very sad that we don't live in Montreal, otherwise we would be regulars here. Thank you Yubari for an experience I won't soon forget.

Beautiful restaurant, amazing service, there’s a coat check and the waiters are super nice. Went to try out the Yubari blue for two. I was initially in awe as the presentation was beautiful and the food looked amazing. I was happy to find fish that isn’t common to see in sushi places in Montreal like otoro and chutoro which are some of my favorites. The crab roll was our favorite!! The mackerel sashimi had a bit of a bloody taste but everything else was great. Best quality I’ve had yet in Montreal sushi places, the uni was the best I’ve had including my Japan trip!!! My only complaint is that I felt the Yubari blue was way too rich, there were lots of fatty fishes and almost nothing to balance it out. This made us feel a bit sick right after the meal but fine the day after. Overall food quality is unmatched, the restaurant is beautiful, flavors are good, everything is great.

I had the pleasure of dining at Yubari last night with my partner, and while the experience was enjoyable, it didn't quite reach the exceptional level of my initial visit. On a previous occasion, I savored the Yubari Blue for two, which I consider to be one of the menu's highlights. The nigiri pieces were, as always, delightful, but I found the maki selections to be less impressive than during my last order. I personally appreciated the Sashimi bowl, with its diverse cuts of fish. My partner, however, noted that many of the cuts were quite fatty, and felt that the flavor profiles could have been more varied, with some of the fish blending together. My first experience, I recall, offered a greater distinction in flavors. But still enjoyable nonetheless. Our evening concluded with dessert, both options of which were truly delicious. The service consistently stands out as exceptional, with all staff members being friendly and incredibly helpful. My sole reservation regarding this recent visit was an unexpected encounter where a stranger approached our table during our meal to offer flowers for sale. While it didn't detract significantly from the overall experience, it did introduce a slightly less refined element and prompted me to ponder how such an interaction was permitted within a high-end dining establishment. Should I return, I hope to find the atmosphere fully restored to a five-star standard.

The quality of food was amazing. Me and my friend order 'Yubari Blue', and it was great portion for two people. Cocktail was okay as well. I think there is room for improvement in service-wise.
