Planned to go there for my birthday, they canceled our reservation with no warning because there was an electrical shortage. Nothing was communicated to us, drove 45 minutes for nothing & this was reserved weeks in advance. Had to learn on the spot when we saw that all the lights were off & nobody would answer our calls.
Disappointed by the lack of communication.

Best sushi in mtl
Authentic japanese restaurant, no fancy sauces, pure high quality raw fish.

Those 2 are a must
Came back for more…. They gave us a tuna belly w truffles on it, 2 of the greatest blessings of nature coming together…. Nature vs nurture…. Nature ALWAYS wins

The interior does not match the photos on the website at all. In reality, there is barely any interior - it looks severely worn down.
The food is tasty & fresh, but nothing special, especially considering the above-average prices.
I came here because of the many positive reviews, but unfortunately my experience did not match the expectations they created.

My husband & I went to Ryu around 12:30 PM on a Tuesday, & the restaurant was almost a full house, which is always a good sign. Despite how busy it was, the waitress seated us right away.
We were looking through the menus when my husband asked if there was a lunch special, since we had seen a $39 lunch special sign outside. The waitress then realized that the lunch special menu hadn't been included with our menus & brought it to us right away.
I ordered the lunch special with the assortment makis, & my husband chose the sashimi, nigiri, & maki platter lunch special. Both lunch specials came with miso soup, which was comforting & well done.
We also ordered O-toro (fatty tuna) & itoyori (threadfin bream) sashimi, & these were absolutely exquisite & hands down some of the best quality fish we've had. The freshness, texture, & flavor really stood out & made the meal feel special.
When we asked for the bill, we noticed a small mistake: we were charged for two bottles of San Pellegrino instead of one. One of the waiters fixed it promptly without any issue, which we appreciated.
Overall, the food quality was excellent, service was attentive, & the lunch specials offer great value. A small hiccup aside, it was a very enjoyable experience, & we would definitely come back.

Nice low key vibes here. Intimate yet relaxing & calm ambiance. Very courteous staff.
Ordered a few things here & they were all plated beautifully.
The wagyu surf & turf maki was nicely done. Wagyu was delicate.
Toro & chutoro nigiri was standard, which sometimes is the best. Lightly dressed up.
Will need to come back to try other dishes.

Excellente cuisine, prix raisonnables pour la qualité. On avait oublié de nous servir un plat de sashimi. Quand on l'a rappelé au serveur, il s'est excusé, nous a offert non seulement une consommation gratuite mais les sashimis également, ce qui était au-delà des attentes! Excellent service. Je recommande fortement cet établissement.

Nous avons adoré notre expérience ! J'y suis allé avec ma fille pour une petite sortie au centre-ville, & comme nous sommes tous les deux coeliaques, nous faisons toujours attention. Ici, tout a été parfait : repas incroyable, service impeccable & une attention sincère à nos besoins. Merci pour cette belle soirée - nous reviendrons sans hésiter !

Let me start with this, food, delicious. But i'd never go back. Everything else was so bad in surprised the food was good. Lowkey wasn't by the end of the night. Their service was so bad it ruined my appetite.
1. Gave our table away
2. Made us sit & the bar & continue to forget about us for 25 minutes
3. Moved us into the coldest corner that was dark & empty, by the window so I could see police & a dog full on shitting in my vision. Totally ruined the atmosphere
4. We got our first order & the waitress gave a disgusted & confused look right in front of me, um what a turn off?
5. Forgot about us again.
Anyways I wouldn't go back, food was decent by the end of the night. Meh.
Update: We went to A&W after 10/10

Very small portions, very large price. Spent a lot of money & walked out hungry. Also both got sick, me the same day in the evening, my guest the next day. Would not recommend & will not be going back. Service was also subpar; the waitress seemed bored & not helpful at all.
