We enjoyed the ambiance & the location: a peaceful little spot surrounded by tall buildings, which made for a charming outdoor dining experience.
However, some aspects of the evening left us disappointed. We paid over $120 for 23 pieces of sushi & a very average, industrial-style dessert. For that price, we expected higher quality & a more exciting taste experience.
When you pay for service, you naturally expect that it includes basic things like serving the wine you brought yourself. I hadn't noticed the small note on the menu mentioning a corkage fee, & the waiter never pointed it out either. I only realized it when the bill arrived. This seems inconsistent with the restaurant's promotional message, which highlights the option of bringing your own wine-something that feels less generous when you're charged to actually drink it.
Sometimes it's not just the food, but all the small things combined-parking difficulties, hidden charges, & a sense of imbalance between cost & quality-that can leave a lasting impression.
We hope the experience improves in the future, but for now, it feels like a place we wouldn't rush back to.

I had an amazing experience at Umamia. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable - fast, friendly, & professional. Our waiter was incredibly attentive, checking in just the right amount & offering thoughtful recommendations that really elevated our meal.

Following his suggestions, we shared the wasabi chips, truffle-parmesan edamame, & miso soup to start - each dish was delicious.

The sushi itself was fresh, beautifully prepared, & absolutely delicious. You can tell they prioritize quality ingredients. Every bite was balanced & flavorful.

I recommend!

You've done something great here. The decor is really cool, the staff is amazing, & the food was premium, excellent. The quality was definitely there, & I have to admit-we're pretty picky when it comes to sushi, but you absolutely delivered. Best spot for sushi. Well done!

Best sushi place in Montreal by far! Great variety of delicious mocktails & BYOB option. Sushi & poke quality is exceptional, you can tell the fish is fresh & so flavourful. The dessert menu will please everyone's sweet tooth. The restaurant is beautiful & clean, & the great music choices only enhance the experience! Last but not least, the service is amazing! PM & his team really take it to heart to ensure their customers have a great time & it shows! Will be back soon for sure!

Umamia Sushi, newly opened in Griffintown, is already making waves with its fresh & flavorful offerings. The sushi is beautifully crafted, with each bite showcasing the quality of the ingredients. The ambiance is very welcoming, perfect for a casual night out or a special occasion. The standout for me was the Uramaki Griffin! Umamia Sushi is definitely worth a visit!

The sushi ingredients are of the best quality. It's really fresh & has good-sized portions. The flavour combinations are interesting. I would come back to try other items on the menu. What makes the food interesting is the many flavour details in the same piece, which can make the service slow during rush hour. This is an impression because we went in an empty time.
