About

Nama Omakase focuses on the precision of Japanese culinary arts through a curated sequence of seasonal sushi preparations. The kitchen emphasizes the raw quality of maritime ingredients by utilizing traditional slicing techniques that highlight natural textures. Each presentation follows a deliberate flow, balancing vinegared rice with fresh seafood to ensure consistent flavor profiles across every portion. Creative compositions incorporate subtle seasonings that respect the original integrity of the fish without excessive masking. The environment centers on an open preparation counter that allows for clear observation of the technical skills required for authentic nigiri assembly. This establishment prioritizes the direct relationship between prepared portions and the raw material provided by global coastal sources. The result is a methodical approach to seafood consumption that adheres strictly to established minimalist traditions.

Review Summary

Nama Omakase offers a sophisticated and intimate dining experience that many guests describe as a highlight of Montreal's culinary scene. Most diners praise the high quality of the fresh fish, the creative French-Japanese fusion dishes, and the meticulous presentation, with many highlighting the eggplant katsu and tartares as standout items. While the majority of visitors rave about the warm, professional service and the engaging interaction with the chefs at the counter, a few guests noted inconsistencies regarding portion sizes, pacing, or specific service lapses during busier times. The ambiance is generally viewed as elegant and well-suited for special occasions, though opinions on the music volume and price-to-value ratio vary among patrons. Despite these occasional mixed reviews, many guests consider the restaurant a memorable destination that earns strong recommendations for its passion and craftsmanship.

tried the omakase. hot & miss on the different plates. some are too complicated for no reason. could be so much better if simplified a little. less is more sometimes. good ambiance & excellent service. a bit over priced for what you get.

We took the 100$ omakase menu for 2 people, & we were quite disappointed by it. The dishes were good (the eggplant was amazing), but the fish had nothing special & was pretty tasteless.
We were told that the difference between the 100$ & 135$ menu was the makis so we were fine not to have them. However the portions were pretty small & we were also quite surprised that for this price we had to share one & only one main dish. We ended up finishing the course hungry & ordering the makis on the side (36$ for 6 makis, I would advise you to not take them because they were not worth it).

On the other side the service was exceptional! We were well taken care of!!
Restaurant was pretty noisy, & you could have participated in the discussion of the table behind us.

Overall the food was good, but the quality & the quantities are absolutely not justifying the price.

Je suis allé chez Nama Omakase sur la recommandation d'un ami & j'ai vécu une expérience vraiment différente. Chaque plat préparé par le chef était très réussi. L'endroit est petit, mais ça rend l'ambiance plus intime & spéciale. Le service était très attentionné. Les prix sont élevés, mais pour l'expérience, ça vaut vraiment la peine. En général, j'ai été très satisfait.

The new manager was a delight just like the food & experience. He was most certainly the MVP. He made sure my hubby's bday was unforgettable & went the extra mile with even the smallest details & gave us top notch recommendation for everything. The chef even came to greet us, it was such a lovely surprise. We picked the $135 omakase & honestly, the $100 would have been more than enough. Every dish was well thought of & the sushi was to die for. We can't wait to go back & try the special 12 course omakase experience at the bar.

Superbe expérience pour nos 5 ans avec mon conjoint.
L'ambiance était chaleureuse ; teintée de bonne petite musique house. Les plats raffinés, variés & copieux pour le menu en 5 services (avec 2 à 3 assiettes par services). Merci à Titouan pour son accueil & sa belle énergie, qui nous a fait passer un super moment !
