Offering a refreshing, contemporary, and all-vegan Japanese cuisine, Sushi Momo is a sophisticated twist from traditional Japanese sushi. With 10 years of experience, chef Christian Manuel Ventura Alatorre opened Sushi Momo in December 2014, and has been getting much praise from day one. Christian's creations are both enjoyable and extremely creative. Christian wanted to give Montrealers the most options for vegan sushi in the entire city.
Reviews consistently praise Sushi Momo for its vegan, creative sushi and striking presentations, with the cozy, intimate ambiance and attentive service often highlighted as a standout part of the experience. The menu offers a wide range of flavors and formats, from inventive sushi and omakase style tastings to flavorful cocktails, appealing to vegan, vegetarian, and curious diners alike. Some critiques note that certain dishes can be heavy due to fried elements or sauces, and a few experiences have been slowed by wait times or variable pacing, particularly during peak hours or delivery. Reservations are frequently advised, and many feel the overall experience justifies the price, describing it as one of the best vegan sushi experiences in Montreal and a memorable place to return to with friends or partners. Overall, the emphasis is on quality, creativity, and care in preparation, making Sushi Momo stand out as a top option for vegan sushi.
My friend & I ordered from sushi Momo last night, as there was a deal on Uber eats, & never having tried it before I was interested. I had no idea it was vegan until our order came. Let me tell you, this was the most delicious meal I've had in a long time. I'm a die hard sushi lover, but this meal had me rethinking my love for fish, as it what so delicious being completely vegan. The variety of rolls I got, the flavour combinations & quality left us speechless! The Miso soup was also fantastic. 110% recommend & will be returning.
Vegan food at its finest! Incredible restaurant. My first time trying vegan food & I was so lucky I was able to try Momo Sushi. Super complex in flavour, I was intrigued! Extremely delicious food. A must go when in Montreal! Service was also excellent. The coworkers are super friendly & explain every dish. I had the Omakase menu & can only recommend. A fair amount of food (for me was more than enough) & the price is just excellent. Overall a wonderful experience. Congratulations to this incredible idea & the hard work!
Visited the dine in location today with my wife May 2024 & it was amazing. We are here on a trip from Hamilton, ON. We are vegetarian & this was hands down the best vegetarian sushi we have both ever eaten. The only thing that comes close is Tenon in downtown Toronto which is amazing this this is at another level when it comes to creativity, flavours & presentation. Overall this was an expert display of textures. I thought that every dish was a delicate combination of crunch, soft along with mixtures of umami, sweet, salty & spicy. For appetizers we got the Japanese Arancini which was hot crunchy & loved the sauces. Next for Futomaki we got the Chou-Chou (top row with yellow coating). We loved the tempura cauliflower inside. The middle row coated in avocado was the big momo which was my favourite - highly recommend. The bottom row was the GYU maki tempura which was also amazing. On the left edge was the Aubergine Falmbée (flamed eggplant) crispy rice - this one was amazing & the flammed eggplant created unique flavour that we never tasted before & was amazing. On the right edge was the avocat & ail noir (Avacado & Black garlic); my only comment would that this one tasted like a guacamole topping & perhaps next time I would try one of the other Cripsy rice Overall I thought it was amazing & was worth the price. I will be coming back here if I ever visit Montreal again & will be bringing friends & family here in the future. Service was great too considering we were English speakers. My only other comment would be that an English menu would be helpful as I kept having to enter the a picture onto Google translate.
Nice place over all ,nice music in the back ground & not too loud that you can't have a conversation,the staff was nice & welcoming,they did loose our confirmation & could not find our names in the system yet we called to book but other than that this Vegan sushi is probably the most best I town ,it was delicious i totally recommend & definitely coming back .
All vegan sushi! The quality is very good but it comes with a price. I took the omakase which came with miso soup, pork dumplings (vegan), 12 sushi pieces & dessert. I don't recommend the omakase because the sushi rolls were very good but everything else was ok. So instead of paying 50$ for the set, I'd get 50$ worth of sushi. The reason I didn't go with the rolls from the start was because I didn't know what was what (The lighting was very dim & the menu letters were worn out). I would have liked a menu explanation because it's not your typical sushi. The service was really slow it took forever to get our order. I forgot to take a picture of the dumplings because I was too hungry & there 24 pieces (they combined 2 orders). Overall impressed of the vegan sushi!
Always incredible! I think I was surprised because, I might be wrong, but it seems like the menu got smaller since last time? But still as delicious as ever. My favorites are the truffle maki & was so pleased with the Big Momo & little Bombay one too! I feel like you can never go wrong with sushi Momo, they have managed to make me like vegetables I absolutely hate, truly incredible! I'm a huge fan of sushis & am pretty demanding when it comes to them, but I cant recommend this restaurant enough. Only B- was that the arancinis weren't nearly as good as last time I went N

First time that we unknowingly ended up at a vegan restaurant. We had a delicious meal & would definitely return. Partly due to the excellent service from Layna, who helped us at the bar. There was plenty of time between courses & the house gave us Edamame beans when it took a little longer. Definitely recommended to make a reservation at the bar.
Amazing experience! The food was delicious, fairly priced, & looked amazing. Service was wonderful, very helpful. Would recommend to anyone who wants good sushi. Update: the last few times the service was horrible. Waited 15 minutes for waters & watched as our server stood around & drank at the bar. Not a good experience but food is always good
Très bon restaurant japonais végétarien. Cependant les portions sont vraiment petites & le repas n'est pas donné. Je recommande la cuisine mais pas à ce prix là.
Sushi Momo is one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. I recommend the Omakase 4-course set menu (49$) if you're overwhelmed by all the sushi options (as we were) - that way, you get to try a bit of everything! It's definitely worth the extra 5$ on the set menu to get the mushroom tartare, which was one of the highlights of our meal. You'll get 12 pieces of sushi of many different varieties. The set menu portions were perfect - we were satiated but not stuffed. In addition to creative & aesthetic plant-based sushi, they also have a beautifully crafted cocktail menu. The vibe is intimate & cozy. The staff are friendly, & the service is timely. The prices are not cheap, but pretty standard for a nice sushi restaurant. I do recommend booking a table as it can get quite busy!

Whether you're vegan or not I highly recommend trying their sushi! So delicious! They're fresh, extremely flavourful & creative. I recommend the omakase to have a bit of everything.
Nous avons commandé 2 repas sushi via Uber Eat (promotion 2 pour 1). Nous avons reçu 2 repas de sushis différents, nous avons donc pu partager 6 sortes de sushis! La nourriture était EXCELLENTE, tout était délicieux! Je recommande sans hésitation!
Probablement les meilleurs sushi fancy que j'ai mangé à date ! Les sashimi vegan était inoubliable. Pas suprenant que ce resto est super populaire. Je le recommende a n'importe qui qui aime les sushis.

Would defs recommend it & would want to go back soon. Great spin on sushi .
The best thing you can do is just pick a bunch of random things on the menu & share everything.
I was looking for a good sushi restaurant for my friend who loves sushi. I'm so glad that we chose this restaurant! The service was attentive & friendly. The food was instagram-worthy & tasted delicious. I would highly recommend this place, you will n

Belle découverte, le service était impeccable avec des explications, suggestions qui tenaient compte de nos goûts. Ambiance chaleureuse, je recommande cet endroit.
