Treated my boyfriend for his birthday, & it exceeded all expectations! Every bite was sooo good. We decided to try to some special tender pieces we hadn't had before, notably o-toro & chutoro, which melted in our mouth & left us speechless with how good they were! Our server was attentionate & knowledgeable, at first we ordered the 30piece sashimi mix but he recommended 12 would be a more appropriate quantity. I appreciate the honesty, & he was right. Another high note is the rolls, chu maki. They're my favourite item because they're complex, but every flavor & texture is justified to form the final fireworks. At the end of the meal, they treated us to a dessert for his birthday. Overall, Hidden Fish is a really great spot. It was expensive, but I was extremely happy with our experience.
My brother & I have tried so many sushi restaurants in montreal, but literally no one can beat the taste & freshness of Hidden fish's sashimi & maki . We've been coming back over & over again for the last 4 years & every single time the food, service & vibe were immaculate! ( P.S : Maki Nobunaga is to die for !!)

They age fish & wagyu in-house, & charge a hefty premium on the aged pieces as compared to the already very expensive staples.
With interesting ingredients & aged meats, I was really looking forward to the meal. Overall, I had nothing bad, but It's not really the sushi experience I hoped for. Everything was smothered in fragrant sauces & toppings, taking away from the delicate flavours of the component ingredients & the star proteins. If I had gone in not expecting sushi, but a Japanese-fusion crudo experience, i probably would have felt better. At the same time, I would not have ordered the premium cuts.
Sitting at the counter with the meat aging fridge right in front of me, I could not pass up a chance to try some. We ordered the aged otoro sashimi, which came topped with some caviar. It was probably the best dish of the night, as it had the least added sauce/seasoning. It was not the richest otoro, & I could not discern any difference in texture or flavour from non-aged, but it had a nice bite & flavour all the same.
We tried several different nigiri. This was where the sushi-disappointment set in. The rice was really heavily seasoned, almost like a sweet teriyaki, & every piece of fish was first slathered in strong sauce & then covered with pungent toppings. The unagi was ok, as the Smokey flavour of the Bonito topping complemented the eel, & you are expecting a sweet & saucy bite anyway. The chutoro was the least sauced, but was also the least fresh tasting of the fish.
In the rolls, we ordered a vegetable & pickle roll, a tuna roll, & a crab roll. The veg & crab were in a soy skin instead of nori, which didn't have much flavor & had an odd texture. The crab was probably my favourite of the three, as the meat flavour went well with the very sweet sauce.
The staff were all very nice & very helpful, & service was relaxed & low pressure, which I appreciated.
At well over $400 for two, where I left still hungry, I highly doubt I will return. Sad because the ingredients have so much potential
I think this was the best sashimi & nigiri I have ever had! The fish was phenomenal. It was so tasty & fresh & almost melted in your mouth. All of us really enjoyed the meal. The atmosphere is really nice very quaint & the service was fantastic.
This is hands down the best sushi I've ever had! We went with the Chef's choice for both the Sashimi & Nigiri, & it was the perfect decision. Every bite was packed with incredible flavour & absolutely delicious. We also tried the Salmon Tartare Maki & Tuna Tartare Maki, which were both outstanding. The service was top-notch, with knowledgeable & friendly staff. I'll definitely be back. After this experience, I don't think I could go back to regular sushi! Thanks for an unforgettable dinner.
I recently discovered an amazing place - Sushi Hidden Fish! To be honest, I've been looking for a restaurant with authentic Japanese cuisine in Montreal for a long time, & here it is! The atmosphere there is simply incredible - calm & cozy, with a modern interior, but at the same time you can feel the spirit of Japan. The sushi & sashimi are to die for! Everything is very fresh & beautifully presented. It is clear that the products are of the highest quality, & the chefs know their stuff. The prices, of course, are not the lowest, but believe me, it's worth it! The service is also top notch - the waiters are very attentive & friendly. In general, if you want to try real Japanese cuisine in Montreal, I highly recommend Sushi Hidden Fish. Just book a table in advance, otherwise there may not be any seats. J'ai récemment découvert un endroit incroyable - Sushi Hidden Fish! Pour être honnête, je cherchais depuis longtemps un restaurant avec une authentique cuisine japonaise à Montréal, & le voilà! L'atmosphère y est tout simplement incroyable - calme & confortable, avec un intérieur moderne, mais en même temps on y ressent l'esprit du Japon. Les sushis & sashimis sont à tomber par terre! Tout est très frais & joliment présenté. Il est clair que les produits sont de la plus haute qualité & que les chefs connaissent leur métier. Les prix, bien sûr, ne sont pas les plus bas, mais croyez-moi, ça vaut le coup! Le service est également de premier ordre - les serveurs sont très attentionnés & sympathiques. En général, si vous voulez goûter à la vraie cuisine japonaise à Montréal, je recommande vivement Sushi Hidden Fish. Il suffit de réserver une table à l'avance, sinon il risque de ne pas y avoir de place. #SushiHiddenFish #Montreal #JapaneseFood #AuthenticCuisine #Sushi #Sashimi #FreshIngredients #GreatService #CozyAtmosphere #ModernInterior #MustTry #Foodie #MontrealRestaurants

I've rarely written a bad review ever but this place deserves one. Food & service were so underwhelming compared to the value you're getting. This restaurant ruined my last meal of my Montreal trip. If you're out of town & looking for a good sushi spot, save yourself & just go somewhere more affordable with better sushi. We have had many good sushi/omakase in the past & even had them in Japan. So trust me, when I eat a good sushi, I know it's good. We came to this place with high expectations & were willing to splurge on good sushi since they had a good google review. However, our food was so underwhelming. We ordered scallop sashimi - so mid compare to the price we paid, Crab Maki - so mid. It was our least favourite dish & the portion is so small for the price. Chef's choice nigiri - we had high hope for this since it was a whopping $88 for 2 people (12pieces). It was okay, some was good, but it wasn't anything amazing at all. Considered the price, it's not worth it AT ALL. The service for a high end restaurant is also really bad. We ordered only 3 dishes, but everything took over 30 mins to arrive. The last dish, took 1.15 mins to serve which was INSANE. In addition, Nobody really checked up on us until the end of the night. Even more affordable restaurants had a better service than this place. Again, I wouldn't trust these google reviews at all. If you want to have a good night with reasonable priced, & higher quality sushi, please look elsewhere. Save yourself & look for another restaurant. Thank you.

Incredible sushi & exceptional service. The fishes & wagyu are aged & melts in your mouth. A good selection of sakes that pair well with both fishes & beef. We were kinda undecided so our server recommended Salmon Noodles, Sashimi Premium (24) & Nigiri (12). It was a bit too much of (raw meat) for two of us, honestly not a big fan of Salmon Noodles. Other than that, we had an excellent meal.
Every dish was exquisite. We were going to cancel our reservation because we had a flood at home from the big storm but we would have been charged $50 for canceling 24 hours before. We weren't happy about that & kept our reservation. In the end, it was a much needed culinary escape from our troubles & we thoroughly enjoyed our cocktails & courses of sashimi, nigiri & makis.
Pretty authentic to Japanese sushi yet a little bit elevated with a lil something something on each sushi! I discovered Striped Jack white fish as sashimi is so good this time!

Une expérience inoubliable avec des produits de qualité & un service de plus de 5 étoiles. Je suis amateur de cuisine japonaise & wowww, la nourriture & les recommandations du chef étaient les meilleures. Le sashimi, les nigiri (recommandation du chef), les nouilles au saumon, etc. wowww, & l'attention dédiée des serveurs, la décoration du lieu rendent cet endroit magique & inoubliable. J'ai été en Asie, en Europe & définitivement, Hidden Fish mérite tous les mérites & étoiles en termes de qualité & de service. 1000% recommandé, le meilleur de Montréal.
If you're searching for an extraordinary sushi experience, look no further than this gem of a restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the service was impeccable-attentive, knowledgeable, & genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home. The sashimi was nothing short of spectacular-fresh, delicate, & bursting with flavour. It's been a while since we've had sushi that truly impressed us, but this place absolutely nailed it. As seasoned sushi enthusiasts, we can confidently say that this was some of the best we've had in a long time. If you appreciate top-quality sushi, this restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!
We were visiting Mtl with our 16 y/o, who loves sushi. A friend recommended Hidden Fish to us & we were very glad that we took his advice. The service was on point & the servers themselves were very friendly. We were there for the Sashimi & it did not disappoint. It was very fresh & flavourful, with a beautiful presentation. I highly recommend!
