YAMA, qui en japonais signifie « montagne », rendant hommage à l'emplacement du restaurant sur la rue de la Montagne, et à l'ancienne croyance selon laquelle la montagne est au cœur des ressources telles que l'eau douce et les nutriments nécessaires au bien-être.
Conçu avec des matériaux naturels qui s'inspire des régions montagneuses explorées lors des longs voyages du Chef Antonio Park, YAMA sera vous offrir un menu panasiatique et des cocktails conçus pour être sensoriels, élevés et spécial.
Les avis sur Yama décrivent globalement une expérience positive, avec des sushis frais et esthétiquement présentés et un cadre élégant et chaleureux. Le menu propose une variété d'options, y compris des plats végétariens appréciés, des maki et des plats chauds comme le wagyu, ainsi que des accompagnements tels que les frites de patate douce. Le service est souvent salué pour son professionnalisme et sa convivialité, et la nourriture est percue comme de grande qualité et constante, même si certaines critiques citent des temps d'attente plus longs et une carte parfois confuse. D'autres expériences mentionnent des prix eleves et un rapport qualité-prix discute, tandis que la constance du service peut varier selon les visites. Dans l'ensemble, Yama demeure une référence pour les amateurs de sushi, offrant une ambiance raffinée et des plats remarquables, mais les avis rappellent que le coût et le niveau de service peuvent varier.
Gorgeous, art-filled space with warm, welcoming staff & excellent food. The Yama salad was perfect, & the nigiri & hanabi were fresh & beautifully balanced.
YAMA is a Japenese restaurant located in Vogue Hotel. This was a convenient & easy option for us since we stayed at Vogue. We dined at YAMA our first evening & were pleasantly surprised. The menu had many vegetarian options for us, which we appreciated. Even for a Sunday evening, the bar & restaurant were steadily busy.
We ordered:
Starters: edamame & vegetable gyoza. The edamame was classic. The vegetable gyoza were cooked crispy & was served in a shallow bowl with a coriander infused citrus sauce. It was tasty, & balanced well.
Small plate/side: midori no ha maki roll is a vegetarian roll with fresh veggies, wrapped in lettuce as opposed to traditional seaweed. It was a simple roll with a burst of freshness. We ordered the truffle fries because our server said they were amazing. They did not disappoint.
Entree: we ordered the roasted eggplant for our entree. We did not know what to expect, but were pleasantly surprised. The eggplant is cooked so well that it melts in your mouth. It was topped various wild mushrooms cooked differently (i.e. some crispy). It was a mild dish packed with a lot of flavor.
Dessert: For dessert we ordered the chocolate praline mousse. This was insane. Imagine a hard chocolate shell bomb with a mousse filling. The exterior was a chocolate & hazelnut shell. This dessert satisfies all cravings: chocolate, crunchy, & crispy.
We were very pleased with the vegetarian options at YAMA.
The only downside is the price. You are paying hotel prices to dine here, but that should be expected.

Recently visited Yama in Montreal for a special event, & it was nothing short of spectacular. The atmosphere was lively & elegant, perfectly matched by a thoughtfully curated wine pairing that elevated every bite. The sushi? Absolutely divine-fresh, artfully presented, & bursting with flavor.
From start to finish, the experience was seamless & memorable. Yama knows how to turn a meal into a celebration. Can't wait to return & explore more of their menu.
Yama has been my go-to destination for years, & with good reason-it's consistently exceptional in every way. Nestled in the heart of downtown Montreal, this restaurant offers a refined escape from the everyday, where elegance meets warmth & quality is never compromised.
From the moment you arrive, you're met with an ambiance that is both sophisticated & inviting. The interior design is beautifully curated-dim lighting, tasteful decor, & a serene energy that makes it equally suited for an intimate date night, a high-stakes business meeting, or a well-earned moment of calm after a long day.
The service at Yama is second to none. Shaf, David, Mo, & the entire team are true professionals: attentive without being intrusive, polished yet personable. Their genuine hospitality & deep knowledge of the menu elevate the experience to something memorable every single time.
The food speaks for itself. The sushi is among the finest in the city-crafted with precision, perfectly balanced flavors, & always fresh. The wagyu burger is indulgent, beautifully prepared, & full of depth. Their cocktail program is equally impressive, offering a creative yet classic selection that complements the menu perfectly.
What I appreciate most is Yama's consistency. Over the years, the quality has never wavered. It's rare to find a restaurant that strikes such a perfect balance between upscale dining & authentic hospitality.
Whether you're looking to unwind with a drink, enjoy a top-tier meal, or impress a guest, Yama delivers on all fronts. It's more than a restaurant-it's an experience. & one I wholeheartedly recommend.
Okay the main thing that we loved about this place was our waiter's attention to detail, RON was the hero of this evening. We were having supper with our kids & he was very kind & attentive to their needs. You would find him holding the water bottle before we put the empty cup down. Once he saw the plates empty, the next meal was already coming to our table.
Then the food came & we understood the hype about this place. Everything was FRESH & tasty. We definitely are coming back for their sushi.
Live jazz was playing the place smelled so nice, the ambience & the decor was 10/10 & the large varieties on the me u was just the cherry on top.
Don't overthink, reserve your table.. you won't regret it.
We went here twice, as I had a spend credit through the Hilton Honors program on my Amex Platinum card. Good: we had the Omakase sushi & the lemon dessert. Both were absolutely fantastic. The fish was fresh & melt in your mouth. The lemon dessert thing was recommended from the waitress who was very sweet & gave great service. Bad: this is very expensive, I wouldn't spend money here unless I had free spend through my credit card. The breakfast was about as good as a shopping mall cafeteria. The berries on the side of my eggs Benedict had white mold growing on them.

Good food, friendly service, a little slow but that's what it takes to prepare quality dishes fresh. The dessert is especially memorable, maybe worth a separate trip just to try their dessert menu.
