Ryu Sushi in Griffintown delivers an outstanding dining experience. The food is exceptional - fresh & beautifully prepared. The setting is classic & elegant, with soft lighting & a calm, non?intrusive atmosphere.

A special mention goes to Rudi, our waiter, who provided top?tier service. He knew the menu inside & out, adapted his recommendations perfectly to our tastes, & maintained a professional, respectful presence throughout the evening. He was attentive without being intrusive.
Go eat at Ryu Sushi Griffintown. Ask for Rudi as your waiter. You won't be disappointed. You'll enjoy great food & great service.

We came here for dinner last night & sat at the bar- dimly lit but beautiful interior.
This might be some of the best sushi we've had (we eat a lot of sushi!) - most notable was waygu dumplings, Mr maguro & bluefin tuna were the notable highlights.
Cocktails were phenomenal - expertly crafted & well balanced as described. Good quality & a good amount. Our bartender was even kind enough to provide a sample to my husband when he was making a drink for another customer.

Five stars all around- a great experience from start to finish. We'll be thinking abt those sushi rolls for a while!

Charles & Rudy were great waiters - friendly, attentive, & provided excellent service. The sushi has gotten so much better compared to the past few years. I especially loved the chef's choice nigiri & the scallop truffle roll. Definitely my new go to sushi spot!

Les poissons du sashimis qui m'a été servis n'étais pas frais du tout, il avait une odeur & un goût très désagréable. En ce qui concerne les Makis également l'odeur du poisson pas frais été très forte.
