Review Summary

Umamia is repeatedly described as a standout sushi spot with ultra-fresh fish, creative rolls, and meticulous preparation that impresses diners who value quality ingredients and elegant presentation. The atmosphere is warm, modern, and inviting, with a calm, refined vibe and a well chosen playlist. Service is generally attentive and friendly, with helpful recommendations, though a few reviews mention slower pacing or occasional inconsistencies. The BYOW concept is a major plus for many, often paired with thoughtful corkage and glassware, while a small number note hidden charges or misalignment with expectations. Dishes such as sashimi, nigiri, and signature rolls like Griffin and Tokyo uramaki are celebrated for balance and freshness, with some meals noting that portions feel modest for the price. Overall Umamia is seen as a premium yet accessible sushi experience, ideal for celebrations or casual dinners, and frequently recommended as one of the best sushi options in Montreal.

After spending 500 bucks in less than a month, I was told they didn't do take away on the chefs special which makes no sense when you can order it on Uber eats. She went ahead & cancelled my order when I was going to spend over 120 dollars plus tip. If the owner wishes I am willing to meet in person & discuss this further but definitely if that employee stays I will never go again as she is very disrespectful & rude. Absolutely horrible service.

We ordered three rolls & it took 45 minutes to arrive even though the restaurant was at a third of full capacity. The quality was not better than a supermarket sushi & definitely not worth the price. However the staff was kind & apologized for the delay

Très belle découverte, la bouffe est délicieuse, pour les amateurs de sushi vous allez être agréablement surpris, rien à voir avec les sushi shop, produit de haute qualité, très propre, l'endroit est convivial pour les familles, couples, ou entre amis, vous ne le regrettez pas. Le personnel est très aimable, accueillant, ils prennent très au sérieux la satisfaction client, la dame a pris le temps de nous expliquer le contenu de leur menu en détail. Bonne continuation & j'espère qu'il y aura d'autres franchises partout a Montreal & Laval.

J'ai voulu tester après avoir vu une influ reseau en faire la promo. Franchement décevant. Maki saumon chives minuscules & quasiment pas de chives. Dessert coco mangue flasque & mou. Payé beaucoup trop cher pour le resultat final.

Nice place but overpriced for the quality. The Japanese Salad was great but the tuna & salmon sashimi were essentially tasteless. Same for the rolls - you could only taste the sauce & avocado/other ingredients, not the salmon. Service was slow & distracted. Overall ok but there's a mismatch with pricing.
