I've been going to Ryu since 2023 & it's the best sushi in Montreal! Here are some MUST tries: Salmon Tacos, Salmon Nigiri, & Kaizen Roll. That being said whatever you order I assure you gonna love it.

The staff is really nice & caring you feel like a guest rather than a customer. Super cute spot for a date night or girls night 😍🍱

This is by far the best sushi I've had in Montreal. It reminds me of when I went to Japan. Best place to get fresh quality sushi & top ingredients. The otoro was outstanding & the kampachi nigiri was incredible. The service was good, & very fast. The hamachi baby roll was really good too. I can't wait to go back & try more of their menu. The presentation of the food was very beautiful.

We tried the omakase as a group of four & the food was overall very good. Most dishes were well executed.

The only negative was with the maki course. We were served four different types of rolls, but each roll only had six pieces despite all four of us ordering the $150 omakase ($600 only for food + $sake & $desserts). This meant we had to split unevenly & decide who gets which type instead of each person enjoying the full experience.

When we asked, we were told that each roll'comes in six pieces.' At this price point, that explanation doesn't make sense. A tasting menu should be adapted to the number of guests so everyone receives equal portions.

As it stands, the more people you are, the less each person gets, which feels inconsistent for a fixed-price experience.

Great food overall, but this detail took away from what should have been a seamless experience.

Came to Ryu on Valentine's day for their fixed menu & had a pleasant experience. Very fresh fish. The sashimi platter, caviar crab roll & toro maki were among my favourites. The wagyu tataki was very tender & flavourful, but not worth the extra $20 in my opinion. The presentation & service is superb.
