Park masterfully blends traditional Japanese culinary techniques with vibrant South American influences to create a distinct gastronomic experience. The menu centers on meticulously sourced seafood, highlighting raw preparations such as sashimi and intricate sushi rolls that prioritize seasonal freshness above all else. Robust flavor profiles emerge through the thoughtful application of citrus, herbs, and unique seasonings that define the signature style of the kitchen. Sleek interior design elements foster a focused atmosphere where the complexity of the ingredients remains the primary attraction for patrons. Skilled practitioners execute precise knife work to ensure every plate maintains consistent quality and structural integrity. This establishment consistently delivers a refined approach to contemporary fusion cuisine by balancing classic textures with bold, inventive presentations that challenge standard perceptions of Japanese culinary traditions.
Park is frequently praised as a premier destination for high-quality, exceptionally fresh sushi and authentic Japanese fusion cuisine in Montreal. Many guests highlight the exquisite presentation of the dishes, the professional and attentive service provided by the staff, and the intimate, elegant atmosphere that makes it suitable for special occasions. While a significant portion of patrons consider the experience to be worth the premium cost due to the superior quality of ingredients and craft, some reviewers note inconsistencies regarding service speed, table proximity, and value for money compared to international fine dining standards. Occasional reports of disorganized reservation processes or lapses in service etiquette suggest that while the restaurant remains a top choice for many sushi enthusiasts, the overall experience can vary depending on the visit.
Been coming here for a while, simply because I have no time for groceries, the food here is unique. I especially enjoyed the premium platter sushi. A variety of selection of different sashimi & maki sushi. The ones that stood out would be the Otoro, which is a very fatty fish that you can not get anywhere from all you can eat sushi( if you find there are, let me know). The presentation is beautiful. I also especially find the sea urchin to be very interesting. Not many people will like it but I do. The workers are well informed on what we are eating. & maybe not everyone but I especially feel welcomed by the staff, including the owner, Antonio Park, very busy man but always checks up on me. & Ms. Jodie, always informative & very kind. Atmosphere, is in a dim light setting, definitely a bar like feeling( it has a drinks bar & a sushi bar). My favourite dessert would be omakase dessert, strawberry based, I loved the different layers it has, strawberry sorbet at the top with creaminess surround it, with a biscuit cracker that separates it from the fresh strawberry & purée at the bottom.
The best quality sushi I've had in a while. Eat bite was fresh & full of flavor. For quality sushi places, less is more - go sashimi & nigiri. Maki roll was good but we wished to have gotten another nigiri round instead. The strawberry dessert special right now is probably top 3 favorite desserts I have ever had
Visited for a special birthday celebration - innovative sushi with a twist & creative dipping sauces. The sashimi & oysters were fresh & full of flavour. We shared the Premium sushi platter & doubled up the nigiri. At this price point we expected the best & were not disappointed.

We ordered the premium sushi platter, the sashimi were so fresh & reminded us of the sashimi we had in Japan! The sushi were also tasty & fresh! The wagyu sando was made with Wagyu ground beef, it was very smooth & tender but lack of that umami flavour. Anyway, it was still enjoyable! The service was good but not excellent, the attentiveness to be improved. Overall, it was a very good dining experience!
I had the Premium Sushi platter - the quality of all the sashimi was great. However, I wish it was brought out in stages so that the Nigiri rice stayed warm & the fish less dry from being served all at once. The set was priced per person but it ended up being so much for one person! (The edamame was lots also for one person). I found myself forcing to finish it.
Definitely a splurge, but a worthwhile one. Everything was amazing, but especially the Wagyu Sando, sashimi, & all the nigiri. Will come again when I need my fill of the most delicious 🍣.
Finally tried the infamous Park! Let me start off by saying it is not worth it, at ALL! Highly exaggerated prices. We paid $200+ for 3 rolls & sashimi. The sashimi was some of the best i ever had but the rolls were decent, definitely not worth the price. We thought the atmosphere would mke up for the price, but no. Sat behind a table of young guys who were extremally loud & drunk. We excepted more out of a fine dining restaurant, ended up being more of an izakaya style restaurant. Would never repeat. Trust me when I say I know my sushi, you do not want to waste your money here.
Excellent restaurant, small, not too big. The food is extremely fresh & very tasty with lots of flavor. Try the sashimi platter. Wait service is impeccable. Probably, the best sushi I have had in Montréal.
