Comptoir Sushi Yatta stands out for fresh, tasty sushi at fair prices, with a wide selection and consistently high quality ingredients. Reviews describe quick, friendly service, a welcoming atmosphere, and careful preparation done right in front of customers. The menu highlights diverse options including flavorful rolls and a noted sushi pizza, with several guests praising real crab meat and well balanced flavors. While most feedback is laudatory, a few comments mention occasional ordering hiccups and a recent note about no vegetarian options, and the emphasis remains on freshness, consistency, and value that keep diners returning.
I love this place. I lived in the Plateau Mont Royal neighborhood for the spring/summer & this was my go-to Friday night spot. It's the best sushi I've had since moving from California. Really fresh fish with great flavor combinations. The staff is also wonderful & kind.
They made really fresh vegetarian sushi but recently put a disclaimer on their menu no vegetarian options. I think that is a business mistake. Sad to see, I have to find a new regular spot now.
You might not expect much from a simple one room space sushi place (yes that seems to rhyme by complete chance), but this one does roll quite high despite first appearances.
Upon further interaction you will find a very friendly & welcoming Catherine serving customers at the counter, within ear shot of her is sushi Chef Vince who is just to the left preparing some pretty darn fresh & tasty sushi delights.
Then let's not forget Quan prepping & assisting just a few feet behind the other two members of the small but mighty team.
Some of the stand out dishes & points from a few visits thus far have been their memorable sushi pizza which is neither heavy nor greasy like many others around town can be. You can actually eat the whole thing & not feel gross which leaves more room for chef's choice creations with ingredients like perfect textured avocado & salmon which they also fashion into well presented florets (despite being pretty are very easily consumed).
A few small side notes about well their'sauces'.
Slightly spicy mayo works well with the sushi pizza. Their house blended soy is not too salty, yet still remains very umami tasting & finally their wasabi a bit darker green than most & a bit more dense which made it harder to dissolve in the soy sauce & therefore did not give the typical nose burn - a love hate type of experience. That said, I don't think it is authentic to drop your wasabi in the soy sauce & mix it around so this will surely not take away any of the stars.
There is a small counter for eating on-site which comes in handy since it's hard to resist eating it super fresh.
To sum up with several simple words: fresh, quality, light, upbeat & pleasant.
Sushi job well done team!

Amazing sushi for the price especially the special 2 for 1 they have on uber eats it's so worth it & fresh & delicious!! super rare to find a gem like this in montreal these days.
Really love this little place! The sushi tastes incredibly fresh, & the rolls are well composed. Service is always very friendly & prompt, & the prices are a great deal! The torched items on the menu have an amazing flavor as well. Strong recommend!
One of my favourite sushi in Montreal: fresh, good quality wasabi & non-coloured ginger. Soy sauce can be of higher quality. I wish they served toro. Missing 1 star in my opinion because out of all the sushi restaurants in Montreal, Sushi Yatta COULD get as good as Vancouver sushi if they made their rolls & special rolls more like there, moving further away from disgusting deep-fried smoked messy Quebec sushi. EDIT: They've gotten better so… updated from 4 to 5 stars ⭐️
I ordered the salmon poke bowl using online ordering for pick-up through DoorDash. My order was ready in time & the staff were friendly. The bowl was a very generous portion & perfect in all aspects! I found all ingredients fresh & there was a good quantity of salmon in proportion to the rest. I will go there again & I recommend it!
I never really make reviews but had to for this place! My roommates & I thankfully don't live too too far away & this is the go to place. Service is quick & efficient & the sushi itself is so fresh & quick. Definitely reccomend :)
This is my go-to take out spot for sushi. I've ordered from them countless times through Ubereats, & I genuinely haven't had even one off order from them. Super fresh & generous portions every time, & they always accommodate my requests correctly (like no mayo). For casual sushi, they're the best.
Price/quality ratio in Yatta is amazing. Fresh, delicious & versatile sushi. Also, the service is fast & nice. No wonder it is one of my go-to's in Plateau area!
Seriously best local sushi spot in Montreal!!!! Best quality/price out there I would say. This is my 2nd year getting from Yatta sushi & I'm finally writting a review because I always return. Very fresh fish & other ingredients. Super kind people
