Sushi Ste-Catherine delivers a focused menu centered on traditional Japanese techniques and fresh seafood preparation. The kitchen specializes in expertly sliced sashimi and meticulously crafted maki rolls that prioritize ingredient quality and precise texture. Patrons observe an open prep area where skilled handlers assemble nigiri using vinegared rice and high-grade fish cuts. The interior design emphasizes functional minimalism with clean lines and efficient counter seating to facilitate rapid service. Various vegetable-forward options accompany the standard protein selections to accommodate diverse dietary requirements within the Japanese culinary tradition. Each presentation relies on visual simplicity and the natural colors of raw ingredients to define the aesthetic experience. The establishment maintains a standard format designed for immediate consumption and efficiency.
Sushi Ste-Catherine offers an extensive all-you-can-eat menu with a wide variety of options ranging from sushi and sashimi to hot dishes like tempura and General Tao chicken. While many patrons praise the freshness of the ingredients, the rapid service provided through the digital ordering system, and the overall value for money, experiences remain inconsistent. Positive reviews often highlight the tasty food and accommodating staff, but several diners report issues with inconsistent food quality, occasional service delays, rude interactions with management, or confusion regarding billing and gratuities. The atmosphere is generally described as popular and lively, though it can become crowded during peak hours, and while some guests find it to be a reliable go-to spot in Montreal, others have encountered cleanliness concerns or a decline in quality over time.
I hadn't been in an all you can eat in a while due to bariatric operation & went with a friend. The quality is pretty good, but AYCE nowadays feels overpriced. The staff didn't really seem inviting or interested. But all in all okay meal. The sashimi portions were generous & thick, which was a plus for me.
Unfortunately, despite the very good changes they made to their appearance, the quality of their sushi was very poor. All their sushi was topped with breadcrumbs along with the rice, which makes the sushi bigger & makes you feel full quickly, thus completely ruining the taste of the sushi. It was my worst sushi experience.
Please go somewhere else for sushi. They roll way too much rice into the maki roles, the fish itself is not good quality, & overall not worth $50 per person. Service was even worse. At the end of the meal, I didn't feel the quality or service was deserving of a tip after several mix ups & mid food. But after I paid, the waitress with glasses called me out in front of the whole table'reminding' me tip wasn't included in the total & basically forced me to tip. Worst Montreal dining experience by far. Wish we'd walked out as soon as we sat down.

A wonderful'all-you-can-eat' sushi restaurant, & somewhere I always make a point of visiting whenever I visit Montréal. Centrally located; tables are bookable online (very wise on a Saturday lunch as it's very popular!).
Bilingual & very friendly staff, always easy to call to the table for questions, discuss allergies, etc. Discount for seniors. Fixed price all-you-can-eat in 2 hours. The menu is extensive, embracing sushi, teriyaki, Udon, Chinese; & soft drinks are included! The quality is absolutely excellent & served very quickly.
To order scan the QR on the table & order on your smart phone. The food comes within minutes.
The food quality has been lowered a lot, I went there after 1 year, & got disappointed! They bring the last part of order (a la carte) too late en perpose so the appetite would completely gone & you have to eat reluctantly/ don't recommend specifically with important companies for you
This review is for takeaway. We have ordered twice at Sushi Ste-Catherine. Overall, the quality of the sushis is decent. We ordered here due to the competitive price-point, but you really do get what you pay for. The rolls were pretty sloppily-made on both occasions. The salmon quality is just ok, not as fresh as it can be in the taste, quality & appearance. We likely will not return even for the competitive price-point.
It seems they intentionally take the time & bring chip stuff first one by one & make you waiting for sushi & rolls. Very slow. The quality is below any expectations. Look at the photo - this is how much salmon you get. Also, the host is unfriendly even a bit rude despite of the smile. We left. The most disappointing sushi experience in Montreal.
the quality is very low, all the rolls are the same .. the way they present it to you makes it look different but in the end its always the same roll.
its very cold inside, all the customers are wearing their coat ..where's the manager ? the heating is off in this restaurant
The staff there were amazing. When we decided to take sushi to go instead they were so accommodating. The order was prepared quickly & the sushi was tasty & excellent quality.
