Reviews consistently describe UTO Sushi as fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, with many diners calling it the best sushi they have had and a Montreal gem. The fish is praised for exceptional freshness and quality, with standout items including eel, torched sushi, maki, nigiri, and poke bowls, and the chef or owner is repeatedly described as friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Several notes mention good value and solid takeout options, though during peak hours or close to closing there can be a wait, and some advise ordering in advance. The place feels small and family run, with personal touches such as in house sauces and a hands on chef who makes an effort to accommodate preferences. Overall, customers express strong satisfaction and a clear intention to return, often recommending the spot to friends and considering it among the top sushi options in the city.
This small sushi spot is a hidden gem! The cozy atmosphere is complemented by excellent service &, most importantly, incredible food. The fish is fresh, the rolls are thoughtfully crafted, & every bite bursts with flavor. Despite its size, this place delivers on quality, making it a must-visit for any sushi lover. Highly recommend!
The sushi at Uto is absolutely amazing, the best in MTL in my opinion. It is so fresh & the owner is also lovely! We had a big order of takeout & he was able to get it done in about 40 minutes, which was a feat considering he is working completely solo as a new business owner. I would highly recommend Uto sushi to anyone (#16 is AMAZING), plus its close proximity to Parc Jeanne-Mance makes it the perfect take away option for a nice picnic.

Randomly ended up here because I was in the area & craving sushi & the reviews were all 5 stars. Ohhhh my gosh, I can see why! It's a super small, lowkey spot but the sushi is next level. Super fresh, super tasty & incredibly affordable.
My absolute FAVORITE sushi place in Montreal. The sushi is so fresh, delicious. Rivals sushi I've had in Japan & the prices are so reasonable. My only shop I visit now. ♡

Super fresh & delicious sushi! Combos are a great price imo & the workers were so nice & everything was very clean & organized definitely coming back :)
Today I orderd combo quebec & Ukayama uramaki from this sushi place. The food was so fresh & the quality was good. Although I am so picky about sushi, I really liked the taste!

Came here for lunch while visiting Montreal & had the best poke bowl of my life! Portions were HUGE, fish was fresh & flavours were all amazing. The chef was super friendly & even gave our group some sashimi he was testing out which was also amazing. Will be coming back every time we visit Montreal.
This place just opened a few weeks ago & I hope they are here to stay! Fresh & incredibly yummy sushi & poke bowls with excellent blend of flavors, & on top of that: super nice service & decent prices. There is space to eat in, or the option to take out.
My visit to UTO Sushi was nothing short of spectacular. The menu at UTO Sushi offers a delightful variety & my salmon poke was crafted with the freshest ingredients. The attention to detail is evident, & the presentation is both beautiful & appetizing. I will definitely be returning soon!
A local gem for those who are in a neighborhood, but also worth the trek. A friendly, courteous & polite owner who takes the time to ensure every detail is perfect on each roll. The menu will likely be modified with new & tastier rolls, but the sushi is fresh, rice well seasoned, extremely fair pricing & generous portions. Tasty food, great service, multiple options, clean setting, really affordable. Just what you would expect from a local sushi spot! Bonus, there is a lot on the northwest side at the corner of Prince Arthur & St Urbain (one block away) that gives you two hour free parking.
I stumbled upon this sushi takeout place & decided to give it a try because of its inviting interior. I must say, it was one of the best poke bowls I've ever had, even better than some I had in Hawaii. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, & the sauce was deliciously unique. The owner was extremely friendly. Very impressed & will definitely be back for more. Highly recommended!
