Reviews describe Yubari as a stylish, intimate Japanese restaurant in Montreal's Old Port with a refined vibe, low lighting, and a DJ that adds a lounge energy without overpowering conversations. The food is consistently praised for freshness and presentation, with favorites including sushi, sashimi, wagyu dishes, and creative specials, along with standout cocktails and a lunch menu that offers good value for the quality. Service is often described as attentive and friendly, though some visits note inconsistent experiences, tight pacing or overbooking, occasional rude interactions, and prices that can feel steep. Overall, Yubari is seen as a high end, versatile dining destination ideal for celebrations, dates, or a chic night out, delivering strong food and atmosphere even if a few visits diverge in service or value.
For the price paid, the food didn't knock me out of my lovely chair. Living in Montreal, we have the luxury of choosing from quite a few amazing restaurants. The decor is definitely beautiful, gave it 5*. I will definitely go back for a drink. Service didn't wow me, average.

The food here is incredible the fish is so fresh & the plating is stunning so beautiful & tasty. I would recommend the sashimi bowls & that beef tataki! The decor & ambiance is also so amazing & viby great photo opportunities. Also the waiter Brian is so fantastic at what he does he's really a gem. & Karine the general manager is the sweetest & cares about the client's needs. The team here is solid not to mention the head bartender is fantastic & creates the most fabulous drinks!
Came to Yubari for the first time this weekend with a group of friends. We were warmly welcomed by the staff. The decor & whole atmosphere, along with the live DJ was absolutely amazing. The food was fresh, refined & beautifully innovative. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience & service! We will most definitely be back soon!
La place est superbe! Le décor est enchanteur & parfait pour une date. Les sushi sont excellent & frais. Le service est exceptionnel Je recommande d'y aller faire un tour ! Le serveur Brian était vraiment sympa
If you're looking for high-quality sushi in a beautifully decorated, fancy setting, I highly recommend this place. It's similar to Jatoba but with smaller table sizes. The interior is beautifully styled. They offer luxurious ingredients like wagyu, truffle, & caviar. The prices reflect the upscale nature of the restaurant, falling into the $$$$ category. There is limited street parking available, & valet service is also offered. The service is excellent, making it a great choice for a special night out.
I visited Yubari for a lunch & it was sublime! First, the food is creative, tasty, crunchy & they're obviously using high quality ingredients. We had maki, dumplings, fried crab rice & chicken karage & all were excellent. & don't get me started on the incredible desserts. The service is incredibly attentive, quick & kind. I got the chance to speak to some of the staff & they know a lot about the food & are very pleasant. The best part is the setting & decor which transports you to a fancy Tokyo eatery with its velvet seats & wooden motifs. There's nothing like this is Montreal so save yourself the trip to Japan & go enjoy Yubari.
Great ambiance & decor . Table wasn't ready until 25 min after our reservation & not much for vegetarian options. But it's a nice restaurant to try overall
Excellent service !! Nous avons très bien mangé. Les plats étaient magnifiques, les sashimis délicieux & de bons choix de vins. Attention ne soyez pas surpris par les prix, c'est plus cher que ce que j'avais prévu (un peut exagéré je trouve, mais nous sommes à l'hôtel St Paul, donc pas surprenant non plus). Décoration est superbe ! Nous avons eu une belle soirée pour un anniversaire entre amis.

I was very pleased when I first walked in. The decor & atmosphere were fantastic. This is in parallel with the food. The sashimi platter was so fresh. The raw fish melted in your mouth like butter. The drinks were unique & the presentation was sublime. I loved the touch of a live DJ. The hostess & the waiters were cordial & efficient. We felt very welcomed. I would definitely recommend for everyone to try. I will definitely go back.
Best sushi restaurant in Montreal by far! This brand new hotspot has the best atmosphere, decor & most attentive service. The sashimi platter is a must try, best I ever had!
Impossible de mettre les mots pour expliquer cette expérience autant sensorielle que culinaire! Bravo. Aucun restaurant ne m'a autant impressionné pour sa cuisine divine & sa décoration plus que parfaite.
Absolutely thrilled with my experience at this new sushi spot in Montreal. The decor is both exciting & exotic, with a glamorous twist that sets it apart. From the ambiance to the menu, every detail exudes sophistication. A must-visit for anyone seeking a unique culinary adventure. Definitely in my favorite places in town.

Un décor enchanteur aux effluves asiatique japonaise, des plats gastronomiques présentés avec raffinement, une sélection de vins & cocktails exquis, un service hors paire & attentionné, une ambiance qui se prête tant aux 5@7 qu'en soirée en tête à tête, sortie entre amies inoubliable, je vous le recommande chaudement !
