Best sushi I have ever had by far, certainly in Montreal. Sashimi melts in your mouth. Stunning ambience, great bar. Overall an exceptional experience!
We celebrated my son's birthday at Yubari at the end of February 2026, & it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish.
The sushi was absolutely amazing, incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, & full of flavor. The Chicken Karaage was just as impressive, perfectly crispy on the outside, tender & juicy inside, & seasoned to perfection.
The atmosphere made the evening feel even more special, warm, stylish, & welcoming, perfect for a family celebration.
A special thank you to Frederike, who was extremely attentive throughout the night. She took the time to explain the menu in detail & offered excellent recommendations that made our choices easy & spot on.
& we can't forget the Trompe l'oeil noisette which was a delightful & unexpected surprise that added a creative & memorable touch to the evening.
Overall, Yubari delivered an unforgettable birthday dinner. We'll definitely be back !
Until then here is a joke:
What did the sushi say to the bee ?
Wasabi ?
Expérience absolument fantastique, en commençant par le chaleureux accueil de Sabrina, puis la prise en charge du manager Bryan, les cocktails surprenants & délicieux de Patrick, les sushis de Marcelo à tomber par terre! Adresse incontournable à Montréal
J'ai réservé ce restaurant pour l'anniversaire de mon copain, les serveurs sont très gentils, efficaces & attentionnés, les sushis sont délicieux & nous avons également beaucoup apprécié le burger au wagyu ! Nous avons moins aimé le canard laqué, mais ça reste un très bon endroit, avec un dj & une musique/ambiance très sympathique. Je vous le recommande vivement ! 💯

Beautiful restaurant, amazing service, there's a coat check & the waiters are super nice. Went to try out the Yubari blue for two. I was initially in awe as the presentation was beautiful & the food looked amazing. I was happy to find fish that isn't common to see in sushi places in Montreal like otoro & chutoro which are some of my favorites. The crab roll was our favorite!! The mackerel sashimi had a bit of a bloody taste but everything else was great. Best quality I've had yet in Montreal sushi places, the uni was the best I've had including my Japan trip!!! My only complaint is that I felt the Yubari blue was way too rich, there were lots of fatty fishes & almost nothing to balance it out. This made us feel a bit sick right after the meal but fine the day after. Overall food quality is unmatched, the restaurant is beautiful, flavors are good, everything is great.
Première visite à ce restaurant. Nous avons commandé une soupe Miso, Sushi Yubari Signature & Sushi Farusato. Le tout était excellent, frais & gouteux. Le service de notre serveuse n'était cependant pas au niveau d'excellence de la nourriture. Elle nous a pas servi les plats, n'a pas pris le temps de venir nous voir en cours de repas, & la facture est arrivée tardivement. Somme toute, une belle première expérience que nous répéterons.
Eten was super, lekkerste sushi die onze kinderen ooit hadden gegeten! Service was vriendelijk, maar op momenten was het een beetje lang wachten. Het restaurant is schitterend van binnen!

I came here with my boyfriend for the second time after having a disappointing experience, & it was amazing, the service was great, we got treated well with hospitality by the hostess, the waitress, the runners & the manager. The whole team was supper great, after hearing about our first experience. The manager made sure that our second time at yubari was a night to remember, & he most certainly was right! The food was supper good, I definitely recommend the sushi experience.The new drink menu is 100 times better than the old one. We tried 4 different signature cocktails & every single cocktail was simply amazing & paired well with what we ate.
We are super glad we went back, & thanks to the amazing service, we will most definitely be back very soon !
Généralement très bons , fraîcheur, variété, un peu de fusión confusion sur certains sushis, mais ok
Un peu dispendieux mais asi es la vida !!!
Ambiance hyper chaleureux , les lieux sont magnifiques, nous avions une grande table
Parfait
Cheers !!!
Place vraiment médiocre & prix complètement exorbitant. Nous y étions pour la fête de deux amies. Réservation a 9h30, premièrement ca prix 30 minutes avoir seulement notre premier verre. Nous avons commandé la nourriture en même temps que les drinks, pour finalement avoir nos verres a 10h & manger a 10h30, 1h plus tard après avoir commandé. La serveuse a oublié ( oui oui, oublié) de demander la commande de nourriture à une des invités, donc nous avons tous nos plats & elle n'avait même pas prit sa commande, donc rien a manger. Nous avons du retourner un des sushis a cause qu'il avait un arrière goût atroce au point de même pas être capable d'avaler la bouchée. Les dumplings étaient pas assez cuit. D'ailleurs, je les ait commandé en meme temps que tout le monde & j'ai reçu mon assiette lorsque tout le monde avait fini de manger. Sushi que tu peux retrouver au sushi shop pour 4x moins chères. Nous devons courir après la serveuse constamment. Au point qu'il ont déposé le gâteau que nous avons apporté sur la table aucun ustensiles aucune assiette, rien pour le couper. Au bout de 15 minutes on s'est tanné & nous avons du nous lever de la table (parce que la serveuse venait a aucun moment) pour aller demander des outils pour couper & manger le gateau. Je déconseille à tous pour non seulement le service qui est inexistant lorsqu'on prend en considération le prix sans bon sens du menu, mais non seulement pour la qualité médiocre du poisson ainsi que de la cuisson des dumplings.

Yubari is a beautiful restaurant with a calm, inviting interior, & the service is truly top notch. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the atmosphere. The sushi was underwhelming & even made me feel a little unwell afterward, though the other appetizers were fine. Overall, while the setting & service are excellent, the quality of the sushi does not justify the high prices.
Yubari is an excellent choice for anyone looking for high-quality food, a great ambiance, & outstanding service. The staff are friendly, helpful, & consistently go out of their way to assist when needed. The menu offers a strong variety of Asian fusion options, including fresh sushi, meat dishes, & standout appetizers.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great spot to enjoy good food, good service, & a fun time with friends.
Yubari has an incredible ambiance. Stylish yet comfortable, perfect for both casual lunches & special occasions. The staff are amazing: super welcoming, attentive, & genuinely kind, which makes the whole experience even better.
The lunch special is absolutely worth it! Great value & delicious quality that really stands out. Every dish is fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented.
If you're looking for good sushi & a place that truly delivers on both food & atmosphere, Yubari is definitely a spot you need to try!
