Review Summary

Reviews of Nama Omakase describe an intimate stylish setting and a high quality experience with a creative French Japanese fusion omakase that many diners find memorable and at times outstanding. The dishes are praised for freshness, balance, and refined textures, with highlights including standout nigiri, seafood selections, and thoughtful pairings. The service is described as attentive, knowledgeable, and welcoming, though a few reviews note inconsistency at times and price concerns. Overall, the consensus is that Nama Omakase offers a sophisticated dining journey that impresses for special occasions and for sushi lovers, while some guests feel value could be better and that pacing or portion size could be adjusted in places.

I had the Omakaze. The food & the experience with the chef was amazing.

Our one issue was the service. We arrived in time at the 8:30pm slot our seat at the bar for the omakaze wasn't ready yet which was fine. We got seated at another table while we wait our seats. They gave us a drink menu & we expected to be able to order drinks while we wait. No one came to us. 10 minutes later our seats are ready. Fine it wasn't too long. We're seated at our seats. Again expecting at least to order drinks. No one comes. A couple sits next to us. They immediately get asked what they want to drink. Server completely ignores us & we wait again. We ask the manager if we could get drinks. The other server goes to the other couple again! I even hear her complain that the other server already took their order & we still haven't been served!

Took us 30 minutes before getting any food or drinks which for the price that we paid, we expected better…. Also, servers were all over the place. Amazing food. Service needs work especially when we paid over 600$ for 2 people.

I celebrated my birthday at Nama Omakase, & from start to finish, it was an unforgettable experience.

The planning process was seamless, with prompt & helpful email communication that made organizing everything a breeze. Once we arrived, the service was impeccable. The staff was not only organized but also incredibly attentive, making sure every need was met with a warm smile.

The menu was generous, with each course more delightful than the last. It was clear that every dish was thoughtfully prepared & presented with care, showcasing the chef's talent & attention to detail. I felt truly pampered throughout the entire evening.

A huge thank you to the Nama Omakase team for making my birthday celebration so special & making a memorable dining experience. 🥰

Quelle belle soirée au Nama! Nous avons pris le menu Omakase à 135$/personne & je le recommande vivement! C'était délicieux. L'ambiance tranquille & tamisée en fait un lieu parfait pour un souper en amoureux. Le service était fluide & professionnel. Seul point négatif, il y avait seulement 2 variétés de Gin disponible lorsque nous y avons été. Outre cela, je recomande grandement ce restaurant.

Michelin-level service. The staff is friendly & professional.

I salute the chef's courage to deliver on such a unique omakase menu. The chef's knife work & rice technique are on point.

The interplay of textures & flavors was truly gratifying.

Great ambiance with sober decor & good music.

I'll be back.

Excellente cuisine & service très cordial. Il y a juste la musique qui concordait moins avec le style asiatique de la cuisine.

Une expérience absolument incroyable chez Nama Omasake !
Le service est exceptionnel, avec une mention spéciale pour Olivier, qui rend l'expérience encore plus unique par son attention & sa passion. Merci pour ce beau moment & ton rire qui change la soirée.
& que dire du chef Gacong un véritable maestro, chaque plat est une claque culinaire ! On sort de là avec le sourire, impressionné & déjà impatient d'y retourner. Je reviendrai!!!
Une expérience folle, à vivre absolument à Montréal !

For Omakase, I think it's better priced & value than other places in the city. Kanpachi, Wagyu, any tuna sushi, ebi, noodle dish, pear sherbet, rice pudding desserts were super good!

Titouan could not have been more professional, nicer, or more enjoyable as a server he was such an informed professional. We enjoyed our dinner immensely mostly because of.Titouan. I would highly recommend Nama Omakase & Titouan!

Une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle! Le Nama Omakase propose une cuisine raffinée & créative où chaque bouchée est un véritable voyage de saveurs, magnifiquement présenté & parfaitement équilibré.

Un immense merci à notre serveur Olivier, qui a rendu la soirée encore plus mémorable. Son service remarquable, ses explications claires & sa petite touche d'humour ont mis une superbe ambiance à notre repas. On sent sa passion & son souci du détail, ce qui a vraiment enrichi l'expérience.

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.

It took 30m to get the attention to order. It's a Sunday night, restaurant wasn't crowded so not sure why! We noticed the waitress also the barmaid, hence, our cocktails wasn't great, it's weak, waterdown!
Sashimi wasn't great, small pieces, 20 pieces for $125
We took the 5 courses service for $135/person & each service came painful slow!
It took almost 4hrs to finish our meals.
Summary, slow service, medium to average food experience & high price!
Final tab came to $775 (with only 3 drinks) for the three of us!
It was my daughter birthday & we were disappointed with the experience!

Belle soirée ! Merci à Samantha pour l'accueil, Olivier pour le service & aux chefs pour la nourriture, nous nous sommes régalés !

The food is some of the best I've had in Montreal! I highly recommend the Omakase for the variety & creativity. Although mocktails aren't on the menu, the bar put together a great combination for us. They even let us try one, & when it wasn't to our taste, made us a new mocktail with adjustments. I like that kind of collaborative approach.

The speed of service could be improved, but we were compensated with upgraded food & free drinks, so we can see that they take it seriously.

Expérience avec chef au comptoir en couple: bon, produits frais, chef symapthique mais vraiment trop cher pour ce que cela est.
Service pas assez discret, ce qui contraste avec les cuisiniers qui eux le sont

My experience at Nama was spectacular. The food was both creative & delicious. At first I wasn't sure what japanese & french inspired omakase would be but by the end my eyes were opened. Chef GaCong was a joy to be around all night & explained his menu with such an obvious passion & love for his craft.
