Had a really good experience at Nama Omakase + Sushi Restaurant. The sushi tasted fresh, well balanced, & you can tell a lot of attention goes into the presentation & quality of ingredients. Unlike many trendy spots, the sauces & toppings didn't overpower the fish, which made the omakase experience feel much more authentic. Service was attentive, the atmosphere was intimate & modern, & the pacing of the courses felt just right. Definitely on the pricier side, but worth trying if you enjoy higher-end sushi experiences in Montreal.

Freshest ingredients I've had in Montreal! Fantastic food, we went for the special promotion they had on entrees annd martinis & we couldn't have had better. Only note is that their tables are quite small but, the rest is fantastic.

Amazing experience at Nama! We tried the omakase & every dish was fresh & delicious. Great service from Felix & Titouan who made good recommandations of drinks to pair with the food from their selection of sake & japanese whiskeys.

Wow, what a place. Beautiful restaurant, stone columns pushing past 5 metres, exposed brick. The kind of room that just feels special without trying too hard. Definitely worth the detour.
The staff really made our evening. Friendly, warm, & they know their stuff. Our server walked us through the menu, helped us pick the right wines & sakes , real good advice, not just upselling. He took the time to explain each dish, which made everything taste even better somehow.
The food? Really excellent. Fresh, creative, every plate looked amazing & tasted even better.
Go. Seriously. & when you get there the DJ. Just trust us on that one.

Can't recommend this place enough! Amazing service, great drinks & the fish was very fresh. Our favourite was the shiromi carpaccio & shift shell crab.

Wonderful experience with the Omakase special. Each bite was delightful, the sushi was so fresh, the pacing & amount of food was perfect. Cocktails & sake were also wonderful. As usual, the service was very personal & attentive. Brought my son for his first omakase & we both loved our experience, thank you!

We've been here a few times, most recently to try their omakase. We loved it! Fish tasted super fresh, their rice is really good. Will definitely go back again.

Nama Omakase was such a great experience from start to finish.
The food was absolutely delicious - beautifully prepared, incredibly fresh, & full of flavour. The drinks were just as good: well balanced, tasty, & not overly sweet, which I really appreciated.
The service was phenomenal. Everyone was attentive, knowledgeable, & genuinely welcoming, & the pacing of the evening felt perfect.
The space itself is stunning - gorgeous, moody, & intimate, with a really nice atmosphere that makes the whole experience feel special.
Overall, everything just came together so well. Easily one of the best dining experiences I've had in Montreal, & I'd happily go back.

We had a beautiful night & the food was to our surprise very good. We were 4, & we each took the omakase 170$/person, which was an excellent experience!! The fish was so fresh & it melted in your mouth. The quality of not only the fish, but the beef tartare was also impressive. Overall, very pleased. Moreover, the waiters were very kind, making us feel very comfortable & welcomed! The only thing I would point out was that the service could have been slightly faster, but that aside the night was great. Highly recommend for sushi/nigiri lovers.

Wonderful culinary experience in a beautiful setting & staffed by warm conscientious people. The tataki appetizer was delicious (flavor bomb) & the maki sushi roll was amazingly fresh & balanced. I had the shrimp dish & my husband had the short rib. Both were incredible...a true fusion of Japanese & French cuisine. All were paired with very smooth cold saki. The dessert was also unique & delicious. Loved the yuzi ice cream. One thing we will request when we return is more seasoning, as that's our preference. Highly recommended.

This was my fourth time at Nama Omakase, & Chef Gacong never disappoints. He always pays great attention to detail, making sure every guest feels welcome & leaves completely satisfied. My most recent visit was for a farewell dinner. We chose the 5-course menu at $135. Some of my friends & family were worried they might still be hungry afterward, but by the end, they were absolutely full & they really loved the entire experience, from the rich flavors to the beautiful presentation. The Japanese-French fusion is truly the highlight, blending elegance with creativity. The cocktails are fresh & tasty, perfectly complementing the dishes.

The ambiance is modern & beautiful, & the service is excellent. The staff took the time to explain each dish, which made the experience even more special. Every bite was a true delicacy. Highly recommended! 😁
