The Ryu mission and commitment to you is to prepare nutritious, delicious dishes that not only taste great, but feel great to eat, inside and out. Caring about what you eat and enjoying the experience to the fullest is what we call “Eating RYU”.
Ryu is widely praised for fresh, flavorful sushi and attentive service, with many calling it among the best sushi spots in Montreal and highlighting wagyu dumplings, tataki, and superb hand rolls. The atmosphere is stylish, cozy, and vibey, with music and a welcoming vibe. Service is frequently described as friendly and professional, though a few reviews mention billing can be slow at times on busy nights. A common critique is small portions for the price, and some dishes with cold sushi rice. Overall, Ryu stands out as a top sushi destination for quality and experience, with caveats about price to portion balance and occasional inconsistencies.
Awesome atmosphere with even better service & exceptional cuisine, Yuri & Alex always go the extra mile to take care of us whether its a date night, business meeting or an outing with friends! The wagyu sliders are a must do not skip out on those
Loved their food, wine selection, sake selection, it's a bit pricey for the common people but I think it's worth it, doesn't beat Hidden Fish, Waitress was a bit dry & cold, we had to leave earlier because of that & took desserts at another place. but generally speaking I would go back because I had fun

Amazing experience for Valentine's Day, the service was great & the ambience too. The server was amazing, catered to our needs & always present. I will however say that I'm removing a star because while the quality was top notch, paying 300$+ for a dinner is a bit overblown, even on Valentine's Day.
My wife & I had a pleasant & wonderful valentines experience & the food was top-notch & first- class, best sushi by far. Service was impeccable & we will be back for sure.
This restaurant is worth a try at least once. This review was our second time; we returned because we had an exceptional visit the first time. Our group of 5 was the first to arrive with a 6:00 pm reservation. We were promptly served water but waited an eternity for our drink order to be taken. Food arrived promptly & was mostly delicious; follow-up service was slow. It could have been a rare exception for the lower service level. Atmosphere is "contemporary upscale cozy."

Nice atmosphere, really friendly & enjoyable bartender behind the bar she made recommendations that were great Love going to high end places with down to earth staff, will gladly return
Nice sushi restaurant. Food was fresh. Service was exceptional & made us feel welcome. The reason I did not give a 5 star review is it was quite noisy.
Ryu in Griffintown is a cozy & wonderful restaurant with great staff & incredible service. We sat in the lounge area which was quite an experience & the staff was always on their feet & inquiring about the food. We started with the miso soup followed by Wagyu dumplings & it was beyond delicious! I ordered the Salmon & Tuna tartare & the presentation was beyond wonderful for I've never been served salmon & tuna tartare in that fashion. It was beyond tasty :) My partner had Shirayuki & we loved it too :) For dessert, we had the vegan mochi & it came in 3 wonderful flavors ! Would highly recommend this place as it's a perfect venue for a date night or chilling with friends. A 10/10 restaurant ❤️
Nous avons adoré le restaurant. La nourriture était savoureuse, les serveurs étaient à l'écoute & très acceuillants & le service a été d'une vitesse adéquate.
