Sent an email, put a request in their webpage & even added instructions to their OpenTable page & still they ingored my messages, this was supposed to be a celebration for my proposal with my fiancee, I was expecting at least a congratulations from the host, but got nothing, for the high prices I was expecting something else, do not recommend.

Went to Ryu yesterday & honestly WOW!! A big part of that was Charles .

I've been to a lot of restaurants over the years, & it's rare to come across service like that. From the start, everything just felt smooth & natural. He's easygoing, confident, & clearly knows exactly what he's doing. What stood out most is how he knew what to recommend, both for the food & the drinks. Everything just worked.

The food was amazing overall, but the sashimi was easily the highlight of the night. You could taste the freshness right away, super clean, just done right.

Nothing felt rushed, nothing took too long, the timing was on point the whole night. & all the small details were handled without us even thinking about it.

Overall, the food & drinks were great like you'd expect from Ryu, but Charles really made the experience stand out & thank you for that again.

I will definitely be back again !!!

Absolutely loved this place. The sushi is insanely fresh & beautifully crafted-every bite is next level. The staff are super welcoming, attentive, & make you feel taken care of from start to finish. The vibe is perfect too-stylish, energetic, but still relaxed enough to actually enjoy your time. Highly, highly recommend-definitely one of my favorite spots.

10/10 wow. It was my first time at RYU & it absolutely lived up to the hype. I'd only ever heard great things, & it somehow still exceeded my expectations.

The sushi was incredible, easily some of the best I've had in Montreal. The watermelon margarita? *Chef's kiss* & Charlie made the whole experience even better with amazing, attentive service.

Highly recommend, I'll definitely be back. ❤?

I had a reservation at RYU this past Saturday night. I went with my wife & three other couples, we're visiting from NYC & everything from start to finish exceeded expectations.

The fish was some of the freshest I've had in a long time-every dish was beautifully prepared & full of flavor. They definitely prioritize quality ingredients.

The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, professional, & made the entire evening feel seamless & enjoyable, their drinks are excellent-definitely worth trying a few.

If you're looking for a place in Montreal with a great atmosphere, outstanding food, & top-tier service, I highly recommend Ryu.

One of the worst experiences I've had in Montreal. We paid 120$ per person for a SHARED menu, meaning even a slider & a dessert were shared, which was honestly abhorrent. The portions were tiny & there was definitely not enough food for two. Not a place i recommend, nor i will be going back to.
