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.
One of the best place in Montreal to have Sushi, worth every penny & they make sushi s very perfect also the prizes are very reasonable.Staff is very professional & polite.
me & my girlfriend were looking for a nice sushi place nearby. We stumbled upon UTO sushi a few weeks ago & figured we'd give it a shot to test out the reviews. We arrived about half an hour before closing & the chef was very welcoming & explained to us we might have to wait a little while as he had many orders. We waited about 20 minutes which is very reasonable for fresh sushi. & for the wait he gave us a free 15$ plate of Sushi along with our plate! He absolutely didn't need too. & then we got home & THE BEST SUSHI IN MONTREAL!

Absolutely love this place. The eel poke is outstanding, & the chef-who I believe is also the owner-is incredibly warm & welcoming. The quality of the produce is exceptional, especially considering how reasonable the prices are. A truly special spot that I can't recommend highly enough. Simple put, a Montreal gem & a must-try.
Our go-to-place for affordable & delicious sushi in Montreal. My boyfriend & I visit it often, even on our birthday nights when it's a workday but we still want something nice before the weekend party.
Be sure to order in advance, or prevent about 30min of wait, especially during peak hours. We usually enjoy just sit there & talk with the chef, or order then go to St-Laurent, get a coffee & some natas before we come back.
We would recommend the torched sushis #14 & #16, & for poke we recommend either eel or salmon.
