Review Summary

Yubari is widely praised for fresh, high quality sushi and creative Japanese fusion dishes, with standout items like wagyu, sashimi, and crispy rice drawing repeat visits. The atmosphere is described as stylish yet welcoming, with a chic decor and a soundtrack that supports conversation and fine dining. Service is repeatedly highlighted as attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, often guiding guests through dishes and sake pairings and making celebrations feel special. The bar and cocktails receive strong notes for balance and creativity, adding to an overall premium experience. Some reviews mention high prices and portions that may feel small for the cost, while others say the value is worth the quality. A few experiences point to occasional inconsistencies in service, pacing, or music volume, and there are occasional comments about billing or a desire for more menu variety. Many guests consider the restaurant a must visit in Montreal, especially for celebrations or date nights, and express a desire to return. The overall sentiment emphasizes a memorable, refined dining affair with meticulous plating and superior fish quality, though with caveats about cost and occasional service or ambiance quirks. In sum, Yubari stands out for its superb food, refined ambiance, and dedicated staff, delivering a premium sushi experience that many are eager to repeat.

Went on a date, I reserved a quiet table for 2 at 8 After being seated the server noticed we were not happy with our table so she happily decided to move us. Sarah was absolutely fantastic, being the only server for the entire restaurant which was busy enough for easily 2, she was on point. Great service, great energy & personality, very professional & awesome. I am definitely coming back especially for her & the bus girl that was working as well, I'm upset her name slipped my mind. Cute, bubly & super nice. Cocktail(Slipper)was great, although they did not have the sake I wanted in stock Sarah suggested the next best thing even though it wasn't in the same palate. Sushi was great although I was not really impressed with the nigiri & the Usuzukuri salmon. The Kanbina & the tuna futomaki was top notch. Vibe was great, hard to find a place that has all 3 aspects: good service, good food & music & not to mention great design by my friend Italo(Anonymus Concepts)

J'ai eu l'immense plaisir de souper au restaurant Yubari pour fêter les 43 ans de ma conjointe & je dois dire que l'expérience a été absolument incroyable ! Tout d'abord, le service a été exceptionnel. Sarah, notre serveuse, a été attentive, professionnelle & incroyablement sympathique. Mais ce qui m'a vraiment impressionné, c'est que toute l'équipe du restaurant a travaillé en parfaite harmonie pour nous offrir un service de haute qualité.

Mais le service n'est pas tout - la nourriture a été à la hauteur de nos attentes ! Les plats étaient non seulement visuellement appétissants, mais les saveurs étaient également explosives & délicieuses. Chaque bouchée était un véritable régal pour les papilles. Essayez le Mini burger de Wagyu, c'est divin.

L'ambiance & la deco est, comme le reste, parfaite.

Merci à Sarah & à toute l'équipe pour ce moment inoubliable !

The ambiance is great. Cocktails are a bit expensive. Food is good. We each had a drink & order approximately six things & it cost us around 230 I think. I would recommend getting the maki with the jalapeno on top & the fried vegetables as an entree.

I don't normally leave reviews, but this place was fantastic. Ambiance was great, the staff was super friendly, & the sushi was absolutely delicious. The quality of the ingredients blew me away. The sushi chefs are on a other level, wow!

I recently dined at Yubari, & while the food was good, the experience was disappointing.

From the start, the staff constantly reminded us of our two-hour time limit, interrupting our conversations & making us feel rushed. We mentioned it was three people's birthdays, & they brought out three slices of pie-only to later charge us $44 without informing us. The pie wasn't even great, & for that price, they could've at least brought the whole thing.

Despite being rushed out before even ordering drinks, we still spent over $200 each-a price that simply does not justify the service. We won't be returning.

A Culinary Gem in Montreal: Yubari

Yubari is an unforgettable journey into the heart of Japanese culinary excellence. It's been years since I last encountered fish this fresh; the only comparable experience was in Japan itself. The exquisite quality of their seafood speaks volumes about their dedication to authenticity & excellence.

What truly sets Yubari apart is their unique variety of prime-quality fish, skillfully paired with creative ingredients & presented with artistic precision. Each dish is a testament to the unmatched talent of their sushi chef, Marcelo, whose craftsmanship elevates every piece of sushi into a work of art. From the melt-in-your-mouth makis to the impeccable nigiris, every bite at Yubari is a symphony of flavors & textures.

& the experience doesn't stop at the sushi. The bar is helmed by the exceptional bartender, Patrick, whose mastery over mixology is nothing short of impressive. Every drink is crafted to perfection, adding another layer of delight to the dining experience.

Other remarkable aspect about Yubari is their seamless operation. You can feel the harmony & positivity radiating between the staff, chefs, & management, creating an inviting & vibrant atmosphere that enhances every moment spent there.

While Montreal is home to several great sushi spots, none quite compare to Yubari's level of sophistication & quality. It's truly a must-visit for anyone craving an unparalleled Japanese dining experience. Bravo to the entire Yubari team-you've set a new standard of excellence!
