Review Summary

Yubari is widely celebrated as a premier destination in Old Montreal for its high quality Japanese fusion cuisine, elegant atmosphere, and vibrant lounge energy curated by live DJs. Many patrons describe the sushi and sashimi as exceptionally fresh and beautifully presented, often highlighting standout dishes like the truffle edamame, bao buns, and premium maki rolls. While the service is frequently praised as attentive, professional, and welcoming, a segment of guests has noted occasional inconsistencies, including long wait times, challenges with reservation management, or service that felt indifferent. Although the pricing is on the higher end and some diners find the music volume quite loud, the restaurant remains a highly recommended spot for special occasions, date nights, and celebrations due to its sophisticated aesthetic and consistently flavorful menu offerings.

Seems like it's hard to be impressed with a sushi place these days. But Yubari exceeded our expectations. Everything ordered for the table was delicious & mouthwatering. Salmon sashimi literally melted in the mouth, never have tried such salmon before. Maki had unique taste which is certainly different from many other places. The dessert was also very good, we took a chocolate one & it tasted like Ferrero Roche in a cake but even better. Definitely this will be my go to sushi/Japanese food place, though it's pricey. The only thing we didn't like that night was the service, waitresses were trying to take out plates even before we finished eating. That definitely was hasty & too much. Hope they'll change it given the place is still very new. But the ambience, music & food are enjoyable making you want to come back.

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.

Dined in & the Journey from outside the stoic Hotel Saint Paul through the black grand doors & into the restaurant is a design lovers classic. The attraction is the people, place, & the food, all a deserving five star rating. The day of opening through to its full house capacity every night demands you book in advance. Looking forward to the restaurant critic's response to this unique experience. Bravo

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
