I recently had the pleasure of dining at Umamia, & I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm & inviting atmosphere that set the tone for a perfect evening. Service: The service was outstanding, thanks to our server, Pierre-Marc. He was incredibly attentive, friendly, & knowledgeable about the menu. He went above & beyond to ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. Sushi Preparation: One of the highlights of our visit was watching Chef Fanny work her magic. We could see her from our table prepare all of our sushis, showcasing her incredible skills & artistry. As she crafted each roll, she took the time to explain every ingredient & the inspiration behind each creation. Her passion for sushi was evident, & it truly enhanced our dining experience. Food Quality: The sushis themselves were a masterpiece. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, & perfectly balanced. The variety of rolls offered a delightful mix of textures & tastes that kept our taste buds dancing with joy. It's clear that Chef Fanny outdid herself, & each piece was a testament to her culinary expertise.
Wonderful night! Service was great & food was delicious. There were different options, we had almost all the different sushi & we liked all of them (mostly the Tokyo). Highly recommend!
Amazing restaurant, came with my family & it was probably the best sushi restaurant in Montreal we've ever tried. Great atmosphere & top-notch service from the servers. We highly recommend this restaurant:)
Repas excellent (mention spéciale pour la soupe miso & l urumaki Tokyo), service impeccable (respect de nos contrainteshoraires). Sachant que le restaurant est récent, si je devais donner des petits points d'optimisation qui n'ont en rien entachés notre expérience : cuire le riz entre 30 sec & 1 min de plus, bien former les chef sushi pour qu'il ne laisse pas de partie nerveuse dans le poisson, sashimi avec moins d'épaisseur. Nous reviendrons assurément, & recommandons ce lieu à tous les amateur de bon restaurant Japonais.
Nous avons passé un excellent moment chez Umamia hier soir pour notre anniversaire de mariage. La soupe miso infusée au homard canadien était absolument délicieuse, tandis que les sushis étaient de belle qualité, très bien exécutés avec du poisson tout ce qu'il y a de plus frais. Le service était impeccable, avec des serveurs aux petits soins. Nous avions une contrainte de temps, que nous leur avons soumise, & ils se sont pliés en quatre pour la respecter. Nous ne pouvions pas être plus satisfaits de notre repas ! Merci, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir & vous recommanderons vivement auprès de nos amis.
Wonderful experience! The service was on point & this was one of the best poke bowls I've eaten! A really cozy design & just makes your meal even better! Definitely will come back
Très belle première expérience chez Umamia. Nous avons partager le « plateau expérience », super bien travaillé & vraiment excellent. Mention spéciale à notre serveur Pierre-Marc, très professionnel & très sympathique. Je recommande fortement !
