I discovered Yufuku Restaurant last weekend, & what an incredible surprise! The food was absolutely delicious & beautifully presented. Every dish looked like a work of art & tasted even better.
It was so impressive that I asked the chef Francis if he could prepare a sushi cake for my daughter's birthday. I sent him a picture & he created the most stunning sushi cake & 2 sushi platters. They were fresh, creative, & absolutely delicious. He also made a special sushi roll named after her'Elena'. Such a thoughtful & personal touch that made her celebration unforgettable.
I also highly recommend The miso soup, the Fukuyu salad & the tacos, they are simply divine.
I want to thank the chef Francis for his kindness & for exceeding my expectations. Thank you to Bren, the friendly & warm waitress, for her lovely service. The entire experience was exceptional.
This place is truly a gem & I highly recommend it!
The atmosphere was fantastic, the chef was excellent, & the fish was incredibly fresh. The owner was kind, friendly, & very attentive, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend this restaurant & will definitely be coming back. 10/10.
We had a fabulous dinner & the sushi & sashimi were super fresh, unique & delicious. The sauces were amazing. Our service was the best of the best. We highly recommend this little jewel on Monkland. Kudos to the chef.
One of the best sushi places I've been to. I have been to some pretty good ones including Park; Sushi Okeya Kyujiro; Hidden Fish & Kitano Shokudo. I would put this place in front of them all for the following reasons:
1) When I go out for a meal I like to feel full & satisfied at the end of the meal.
2) I like to be in an atmosphere which is friendly; welcoming & relaxing.
3) I want top quality & quantity in other words value for the money spent.
4) I want to be surprised & delighted.
Yufuku fit the bill on all these criteria.
I would highly recommend the Sashimi Platter & the Sushi Aburi in particular.
I would encourage sushi lovers to give this place a try. You will not be disappointed.
Wonderful Experience. Highly Recommend!
We had a truly delightful experience at this restaurant. The service was not only kind & attentive, but also genuinely uplifting, it made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
I ordered the tuna salad, & it was beautifully presented & perfectly balanced in flavor, a real treat for both the eyes & the palate. I also enjoyed a miso soup that was just right, with a delicate blend of miso & fresh spring onions.
Everything was fresh, flavorful, & thoughtfully prepared. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant 100%. We will definitely be returning!

Ordered a few meals for the night to celebrate an important day! The waitress was super kind & explained every menu item perfectly with care. The meals I had were the wonton Soup & the Udon black sesame & they were delicious! Apparently the special udon will be added to the permanent menu since it's so loved ;) My friend at the table ordered a grilled salmon & said the sauce was amazing & gave her compliments to the chef! I highly recommend visiting this hidden gem in monkland!
The staff were so accommodating & friendly, I love how they were considerate when making an order. The food was delicious & very flavorful. Definitely recommend the Pressed Nigiri & Tuna Steak Salad. 100% repeat customer here!
Great place! Food was fantastic & service was great. We often eat at various sushi restaurants in Toronto so we decided to try Yufuku (as recommended by a friend) when we were in Montréal this past weekend & were pleasantly surprised. Our two kids loved the Japanese fried chicken & we enjoyed what we ordered which are shown in the photos. We had the wagu nigiri (one of their specials), soft shell crab, taco tatare the assorted torched donburi & the Geisha roll. Definitely coming back when we're back in town!!!
Third time here, & always incredible. I saw another review re: the prices. The prices are more than fair for the quality, labour-intensive preparation, & freshness of ingredients. The specials change regularly, & everything on the menu has an element of surprise & magic in flavour & texture. From the specials, we ordered the black sesame udon w/ cremini mushrooms & tofu, beef tataki, salmon & tuna nori roll fried in tempura batter; from the menu, we ordered the octopus salad & the fried ice cream. The salmon & tuna nori roll in tempura was outstanding: I could have eaten this all night. The beef tataki was so tender & perfectly seasoned with a slight kick, & the udon was a truly unique. The salads are always delicious: I look forward to the wide assortment of flavors, textures, & ingredients. As usual, the sauces are phenomenal. My boyfriend loved the fried ice cream, but I was too full to try it!
2nd review: (I think I accidentally erased it, but basically we ate dinner & brought along my MIL. I loved the ramen: the broth was beautifully deeply flavoured - perfect for winter. Tacos were as amazing as I remembered from our first visit, the salad delicious, & the scallop sushi from the specials was orgasmic. The dessert sushi was such a fun surprise! It was the perfect way to end the meal: fresh, fruity, just sweet enough, cool, & colourful.
1st review:
Absolutely mind-blowing. We ordered tacos tartares, soft-shell crab, grilled calamari, the geisha roll, the Yufuku roll, the Kumokani roll, the scallop explosion, karaage, yuzu cheesecake, & the croffle with ice cream. Try as we might, we were unable to choose favourites - it was all outstanding. The freshness & quality of the ingredients are unmatched. The presentation is delicate, thoughtful, & stunning. The signature sauces alone are worth returning for. We highly recommend & are definitely going back!
I discovered a new Japanese fusion spot on Monkland. Yufuku is awesome. The owners are really friendly & passionate & the ingredients are really fresh & tasty. The decor of the restaurant is very cozy & the service was 10/10. I strongly recommend trying this place next time you're in the monkland area.
Good food & great service! Tried the octopus salad, taco tartare, pork sliders, tuna steak, grilled seared scallops, & the torched sushi. The tuna steak was really good! The seared scallops also very delicious, grilled perfectly! Octopus salad was well seasoned & the octopus texture was great. Everything was delicious. They have two tables where you can experience sitting "sitting in the floor". The seating area is raised & there are cushions to sit on. If you cannot sit crossed legged for long I would not recommend these tables. If you can sit crossed legged for long, then it's a fun option to try. Would recommend!

This place is amazing! Food & service were great! Unique Food & Friendly service with a light atmosphere. I didn't have to scream for my family to hear me! I recommend this place for all sushi lovers. Thanks to the staff for a great evening.
A MUST TRY NEW JAPANESE RESTAURANT IN NDG. I highly recommend (these were my favorite, but everything else was amazing as well) : - Tartare tacos - Legit any sushi rolls - Fried ice cream They have unique creations, using a large variety of flavors, textures & ingredients. The interior decor is really nice, clean & the vibe is cozy, semi chic. The chef really know what he is doing & I can assure you can you'll be unlocking a new craving.
