Yubari propose une expérience culinaire raffinée à Montréal, marquée par un décor magnifique, une ambiance vibrante et une cuisine fusion japonaise de haute qualité. De nombreux convives soulignent la fraîcheur exceptionnelle des poissons, notamment les sashimis et les makis créatifs, ainsi que la qualité des cocktails. Le service est fréquemment décrit comme attentif, professionnel et chaleureux, plusieurs membres du personnel étant reconnus pour leur dévouement à rendre chaque visite mémorable. Bien que certains clients notent que les prix sont élevés et que les portions peuvent paraître modestes, le consensus général demeure que l'alliance du cadre élégant, de la musique et de la maîtrise technique des plats fait de ce restaurant une destination de choix pour les occasions spéciales.
(FR )Il est rare que je laisse une note aussi sévère à un restaurant. Grande amatrice de sushis, j'avais de grandes attentes envers Yubari &, malheureusement, l'expérience m'a laissée sur ma faim.
Commençons par les points positifs : la fraîcheur des ingrédients est irréprochable. La coupe de sashimi de saumon Ora King était généreuse, d'une fraîcheur remarquable, avec une chair d'un orange éclatant qui donnait immédiatement envie d'y goûter.
En revanche, plusieurs plats manquaient de caractère. Les croquettes de canard étaient plutôt fades & n'offraient pas la richesse de saveurs à laquelle je m'attendais. Même constat pour le poulet karaage, les makis chauds & les makis Kintsugi. Chaque bouchée semblait promettre une belle complexité, mais cette promesse ne se concrétisait jamais. Les plats donnent l'impression d'être inachevés, comme s'il leur manquait la touche finale qui leur permettrait de véritablement se démarquer.
Du côté des boissons, l'espresso martini a été un véritable coup de coeur. L'ajout subtil de chocolat noir est une excellente idée & apporte une belle profondeur au cocktail.
Enfin, le service est à la hauteur du cadre prestigieux de l'Hôtel Saint-Paul : chaleureux, efficace & discret. Le personnel sait être présent sans être envahissant, ce qui permet de profiter pleinement du repas.
En résumé, malgré une qualité irréprochable des produits & un service exemplaire, j'ai trouvé que la cuisine manquait d'audace & de relief. Avec des assaisonnements plus affirmés & des saveurs mieux abouties, Yubari pourrait offrir une expérience beaucoup plus mémorable.

It is very rare for me to leave such a low rating for a restaurant. As a big sushi enthusiast, I came in with high expectations & left disappointed. I'm sharing this review in the hope that Yubari continues to improve.
The quality of the ingredients was undeniable. The Ora King salmon sashimi was excellent-generously sliced, beautifully vibrant in color, incredibly fresh, & delicious. The freshness of the fish was evident from the very first bite.
Unfortunately, several of the other dishes fell short. The duck croquettes were decent, but the filling lacked depth & flavor. I felt the same about the karaage chicken, the warm maki rolls, & the Kintsugi rolls. Each bite seemed to promise something exciting, but that promise never quite materialized. The dishes felt as though they were missing a final touch to bring all the flavors together.
The espresso martini, however, was outstanding. The addition of dark chocolate was a brilliant touch that elevated the cocktail beautifully.
The service was also excellent & truly reflected the standard one would expect from a restaurant located inside Hotel Saint-Paul. The staff was warm, attentive, efficient, & discreet, allowing us to fully enjoy the dining experience without interruption.
Overall, the fresh ingredients & impeccable service are undeniable strengths. However, the execution of several dishes lacked the depth, balance, & boldness needed to make the experience truly memorable.
Food was underwhelming, the music was excessively loud, & the service needs significant improvement. We had to ask multiple times for basic items like napkins & utensils, which was frustrating. Considering the high prices, the portion sizes & quality didn't match expectations. You can find much better food, atmosphere, & service at places like Juni or Parc. Would not recommend.

Overall, nice ambiance, friendly staff, & excellent service. Most of what we ordered was good, especially the Gyosa dumplings.
The chicken karaage was a miss. It lacked flavor & tasted like plain fried chicken coated in a glaze. It could use a serious upgrade or be reconsidered as it didn't match the quality of the rest of the menu.
The restaurant & ambiance is beautiful! But, the prices are WAY too high for the quality of sushi & portion sizes you get. Drinks also very expensive. You go for the experience, not expecting to eat the best sushi of your life.
Very good quality & great vibes overall. I've been there many times for lunch & also dinner. Lunch service (menu) is fast & offers great value, dinner has a really nice atmosphere..
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.
Yubari is a small Japanese restaurant tucked into the heart of the Old Port that delivers a surprisingly refined dining experience.
The first thing that stands out is the atmosphere. The space is compact, but the tables are thoughtfully arranged, which keeps the room from feeling crowded. The layout creates a comfortable flow where conversations remain intimate rather than drowned in noise. The low lighting adds warmth, & the presence of a live DJ gives the restaurant a subtle lounge energy without overpowering the dining experience.
The food is excellent. Each dish is carefully prepared & beautifully presented, with the kind of balance & precision you expect from a high-quality Japanese kitchen. The menu manages to feel both refined & approachable, making it easy to explore a few different plates.
Service is another highlight. The waiters & waitresses are attentive & genuinely helpful when it comes to recommendations. They guide you through the menu with confidence & enthusiasm, which makes the experience feel personal rather than transactional.
Overall, Yubari is a great spot if you are looking for excellent Japanese cuisine in a stylish but relaxed setting. The combination of outstanding food, thoughtful service, & a well-curated atmosphere makes it one of the more enjoyable dining experiences in the Old Port.
This Japanese restaurant offers an excellent dining experience overall. The food was outstanding - the lobster pasta was honestly one of the best I've ever had, the maki selection was delicious, & the drinks were equally impressive. The space itself is beautiful & creates a great atmosphere for a night out.
However, service felt slightly uneven during our visit. We were celebrating a birthday, & while expectations don't need to be extravagant, nothing was acknowledged or offered, which felt like a missed opportunity in a restaurant of this level.
Additionally, one of the manager appeared to focus most of their attention on what seemed to be VIP guests, spending a large portion of the evening conversing with one table at the bar next to our table & could only hear their conversation the whole time.
That said, the quality of the food & ambiance remain exceptional, & with more consistent attention to all guests, the overall experience could truly match the level of the cuisine.
