Très bon restaurant. Le poisson est frais & de qualité, les rouleaux sont originaux & les combinaisons de saveurs sont super. Belle ambiance. C'est un apportez votre vin... par contre il y a un cork fee de 5$, première fois que je vois ça au qc.
Super petit resto ! Excellent service de la part d'un employé investi qui connaît à la perfection le menu. La bouffe est excellente, originale & authentique. Le fait de pouvoir apportez son vin est très apprécié. Nous avons passé un excellent moment. A noter qu'il est agréable de voir les employé cuisiner les plats & que malgré la petite taille de la salle, nous pouvions parler normalement pour nous entendre. Bref, nous recommandons vivement !
Wow one of the best sushi restaurants in Montreal. This spot deserves to be on the « best sushi restaurants » list. Service is impeccable & you are treated so well (like kings & queens). Umamia serves premium sushis rolls & nigiris with incredible ingredients. The kitchen is in the dinning room so you see all the chefs in action & this is pretty to see. All the sushis were delicious (I recommend them all). I also tasted all the appetizers & they were all excellent. If I had to choose my top 3 : wasabi nori chips, lobster infused miso soup & gyozas.
Les mots nous manquent pour définir à quel point c'était parfait, délectable, beau, bon, frais, accueil parfait, service incroyable .La soupe Miso est exquise, les sushis sont divins Même les desserts sont délicieux & magnifiques! . Je ne sais pas quoi dire de plus ! Nous ne mangerons plus jamais de sushis ailleurs qu'ici ! J'ai déjà hâte à la prochaine fois!
Très belle place à sushi & donburi ! Les sashimis & les nigiris sont très copieux. Dans l'ensemble tout était super savoureux, & les cuisiniers prêtent une attention particulière à la présentation des plateaux. Le service en lui-même était super ! Je ne mets que 4 étoiles, car l'attente a été assez longue durant notre service (à peu près 1h d'attente), mais l'attente en valait la peine. Je recommande sans hésitation! Petit précision : c'est un apportez votre vin, mais il y a un droit de bouchon de 5 dollars PAR bouteille.
An unforgettable experience! The restaurant boasts a beautiful array of entrées that tantalize the taste buds right from the start. The amazing lobster-infused miso soup was a revelation, & we also enjoyed the crunchy & spicy nori wasabi chips. One of the unique features of this place is that it's a bring-your-own-wine spot, which is quite rare in Griffintown, making it a great option for a relaxed evening out. The mocktails were impressive as well, providing a refreshing complement to the meal. The sushi was nothing short of amazing, featuring creative & complementary flavors that showcased the chef's talent. The ingredients were super fresh, & the large portions meant we left feeling completely satisfied. To top it all off, we indulged in exquisite desserts, with the limoncello basil being a standout that I can't recommend highly enough. Furthermore, the décor of the restaurant is gorgeous & creates a warm, intimate atmosphere that's perfect for a date night.
