Le service est excellent. La serveuse connaissait le menu par coeur. J'avais demandé un tables tranquil & ils ont répondu à ma demande ce qui est très apprécié.
Cependant je n'ai pas trouvé que les sushis étaient si extraordinaires. Délicieux, oui mais chers, car vous payez le premium du Vieux-Montréal & de resto d'hotel. Je recommande pour les touristes qui visitent & veulent absolument manger dans le Vieux-Montreal.
Amazing experience at yubari! Went there for my GF birthday, the hostess Sabrine & the bartender Lena made sure we spent an amazing night. Thousand thank you to the whole crew. Would definitely recommend & go back. 💯
This was our second time back at Yubari.. there was a little mishap our first visit but we were offered to come back for a second try…. & what an amazing choice that was. Some of the best sushi in all of Montreal. Anyone coming to visit Montreal & is craving sushi this has to be at the top of the list. Thank you Yubari for an amazing dinner & a special thanks to our server/manager Taryn. We will DEFINITELY be back !
Samedi le 4 avril à 21h-21h30, mes amies & moi nous nous sommes dirigées vers le restaurant. Cependant, à notre grande surprise, l'accueil & la politesse n'étaient pas au rdv… nous avons eu un accueil désagréable dès notre arrivée. Avant même que nous ayons pu parler avec la jeune femme à l'accueil, elle nous a fait signe de « non » avec la tête. Son comportement était irrespectueux, & elle n'a même pas été capable de nous accueillir avec un simple « bonsoir »…
Une attitude hautaine sans aucune raison. Elle n'avait pas de manière polie pour nous dire qu'il avait pas de place dans le restaurant.
Une hôtesse c'est sensé être chaleureuse & agréable.
The food is absolutely amazing ! Best Asian cuisine in Canada 🇨🇦 ! The service was very outstanding. I would like to thank the whole team who took very good care of us ! Thank you Sabrine thank you alexia & their lovely manager tyrene ❤?

The food is always amazing, however, the service was awful. My friends & I had a reservation yet were only seated an hour after. With having a reservation this should not happen, it's un professional. They overbooked completely. Not only was my table waiting but every table before & after us. The receptionist was also rude & not helpful. I wouldn't go back for this specific reason.
Restaurant is so beautiful inside, & the food & cocktails were amazing. I got a p⭐? martini & it was 10/10. But the only thing was that we had to wait over an hour to be seated. We had a reservation for 9pm & we were only seated at 10:13. Usually when restaurants make u wait a while when u had a reservation they accommodate you with some free drinks or maybe even finger food to eat but we ended up just waiting the whole hour without no one updating us at all.
The sushi was very good! The fish tasted fresh & the quality was very good. The decor is also very pretty & dark & the atmosphere created by the dj was nice! The service was also great our server Tarryn was very sweet.
