I took the spicy ramen. It was pretty disappointing as it tasted like water with spices. Its as low quality as you can get. My girlfriend took sushi deluxe which includes some sashimi, some hosomako and some futomaki and it was also very terrible. She had shrimp sashimi…, fake crabs and 2 pieces of salmon. The sushi rolls had rice outside and inside of the seaweed sheet making it mostly rice and seaweed with small piece of fake crab.
I dont think anyone should go here by choice.

The combos are a rip off and the sushi is very mediocre. Had the sashimi combo, out of the 11 pcs of sashimi, 4 were pieces of egg and fake crab. Fish is not that fresh and portions of it are stingy.

Avoid this place at all costs. Awfully slow and rude service, vague and confusing pricing on their specials and regular menu, super underwhelming/​bland food, weird décor, etc.
The worst was that these shady people charged me a 15% tip in the bill without saying anything, then when I paid with my card there was a space to leave your tip which I didn’t realize until I left the restaurant. They double dip with the tips and take advantage of people. Scumbags.

Came here for Sunday nite supper and i must say it was good. I got the all u can eat buffet for 22 $. They have a good selection and service is fairly fast. One thing that would made it better would have been better soya sauce. It tasted like it was watered down. It was close to my hotel and I may come back again, but only if I stay near by as I would try somewhere else if not.

They were out of salmon (weird for a sushi place) service is limited, didnt even ask us once if everything was okay, no eye contact whatsover so that you can ask her to take your order.
When we received the sushi, surprisingly there was salmon on some of them, made me doubt about the freshness. And I confirmed by the taste, I’ve almost immediately had a stomach discomfort.
I wouldn’t recommend that place unless its during lunch I heard its okay.
Sorry !

Bön, j’avais dit que je n’y retournerais plus, mais comme c’est près du bureau et que certains collègues aiment bien cet endroit, j’y suis retourné à quelques reprises.
Pour le positif, le service, quoique relativement lent, né l’a jamais été autant que lors de mon précédent avis. Même que lors de notre dernière visite. Nous étions un groupe de 25 et nous n’avons jamais été servis aussi rapidement.
Sinon, personnellement, je né suis toujours pas super fan de la nourriture. Pas mauvais, mais rien qui mérite un détour. Mais ça dépanne lorsqu’on est dans le coin.

I like it for lunch. Not expensive. I usually have the tempura fried shrimps and veggies which is yummy. The general Tao hits the spot. I don’t really go there for the sushi.
Service is pretty quick at lunch time.

I totally agree with all the bad reviews here. Do not go there.
Worst sushi buffet I’ve ever had. The sashimi was not fresh and very thin. The beef terriyaki tasted like boiled beef with terriyaki sauce. The oil they used on fried foods like shrimp tempura was not fresh too. It was very cold that day, so we asked for hot water or tea. The server gave us the tea. And I never realized they charged 10 dollars for the tea until I payed. :(They could just gave me some hot water.
I totally agree with all the bad reviews here. Just do not go there. Everything there was below average.

We were fooled into eating at this restaurant by a groupon deal. Being Chinese ethnicity myself, sadly most of these Japanese all you can eat restaurants are being poorly run by Chinese people who have no Japanese culinary sushi skills… sad but very true. It took almost 45 min to receive our second order of food we placed, the sushi rice was hard with no flavour, the nigiri sushi had paper thin slices that resembled smoke salmon, and the SOYA SAUCE was watered down (I don’t know if this a Montréal thing but this is not the first time I’ve experienced that). Please STAY AWAY. I don’t understand why this place is still open? Absolute garbage and a waste of time.

My boyfriend and I have been coming here for over 2 years now. Even before it started giving Groupons.
Ever since they’ve introduced Groupons, we’ve taken it every time.
The décor and music hasn’t changed in all these years but the food keeps on going through changes.
We have enjoyed every time since the staff is busy handling a full house but is friendly! Upto the point and good swift service.
Food: we indulge in the appetizers. They are small in size but tasty. Sushi is decent as well!
I love this place and would continue coming here.

I went there on a Saturday evening, there were enough tables, it wasn’t a problem. (+1 star)
But it was a warm summer evening. The AC was clearly not on, or not working or non existant.
The water they served was at room temperature with no ice.
The sushi were decent but there was too much rice and some pieces were extremely big. But you order your sushi the same way you’d do anywhere else and it becomes difficult to finish. Thank God people could get take out so instead of paying a $ 1 fee for each uneaten sushi, we got some take out. (+1 star)
Then, the service was not more than what you’d expect, so less than average. But here is where it went wrong. When it was time to pay, the girl never said anything about the tip being already included in the total. I was paying with my credit card and there was the option to tip, which I did. So I ended up paying 15% of a total that already had a 15% included. They never said anything. I only realized it when I got home.
Do not go there, stuck to your favourite all you can eat sushi places.

I visited on a groupon and was worried about all the bad reviews. The staff were very friendly but yes, very, very slow. Besides that, the décor was cute and simple. yes I recognized the Ikea Expedit units but I own 2 anyways so I can’t hate their functionality. Unlike some other all you can eat sushi places we were actually delivered everything we ordered. They brought it to our table in reasonable batches but a little bit too slow. The sushi itself was quite tasty and I was pleased that they didn’t try adding extra rice as filler. We certainly didn’t consume $ 50 of sushi between the two of us, but it was filling and tasty none the less.
**Tip is already included on your receipt!

Overbooks on Groupon deal and under allows the reservations. Impossible to get a reservation there if you have paid for a deal. You can call and reserve a place or show up and there is room, but if you have a paid voucher you’re out of luck. all of a sudden they are full.
Scam.

I was surprised to see the interior looking quite upscale and classy. The tables and chairs were matched really well with the wallpaper and lamps. The paintings, equipped with individual lighting, were the icing on this fantastic interior design. And the music was very appropriate. When I was there, it sounded kind of jazzy. If you take any delight at all in the finer things in life (ex. wine, art, classical music), you won’t be disappointed with the way the restaurant has been set up inside. With that said, it’s an ideal place for a romantic date. I saw a businessman in full suit walk in with a dressed-​up lady, whom I presume were on a date.
Our server was very friendly. When we received a dish we didn’t remember ordering, he brought us the paper menu on which we ticked off our choices to confirm that this was indeed our dish. I appreciated that he counted how much we ordered initially so that we weren’t ordering more than we could handle (we were having all-​you-​can-​eat). The sushi was similar to that offered in many small sushi businesses back in British Columbia (and everyone knows how it’s much easier to find higher-​quality sushi in BC). One roll particularly stood out for me. There were just as many tempura crumbs rolled up as the rice, and in the center was a piece of sashimi. Combined, it tasted creamy and chewy, and the sashimi gave my taste buds a «sweet punch». The price of the all-​you-​can-​eat sushi here, about $ 30, is reasonable in Montréal.
There’s a surprise waiting in the women’s washroom. Depending on your cultural background and personality, this surprise may either be cool or bizarre. If you’re a man, you can still see it because the men’s washroom is right beside the women’s and the door for the latter is usually kept wide open.

Send Gordon Ramsay to this place, it a kitchen night mare!
Nasty food, slow service and cheap décor. So many better all you can eat sushi in MTL.

Also went using a Groupon deal, which allowed me to pick from the VIP menu (more choices).
Compared to my favorite sushi places, which are Sushi 999 and Sushi Palace (both in Chinatown and Longueil locations), the service was 2x as slow and their sushi had 2x as much rice. And I don’t go to all-​you-​can-​eat sushi for thick coatings of rice. Or go on a not-​busy weekday evening to pick at my soy sauce while waiting for each order.
They also only allowed 1 serving of ice cream for dessert and it was their only dessert choice. It was not even on the menu– you had to ask the waiter for it. Not a terrible flaw but doesn’t give this place extra points.

Great miso soup… BUT.
The least fresh sushi I’ve had.
’twas truly awful.

This place was great. I’ve never had Vancouver-​style sushi before, but have a friend from BC who suggested this place. After we’d been, I was actually very surprised at the ratings on Unilocal,largely because I had a great experience and got just what I expected. I mean, this is a $ 20ish all-​you-​can-​eat experience, so I certainly wasn’t expecting them to roll out the red carpet. In fact, I was impressed by what they had to offer.
The sushi was fresh, and tasty. They set this whole thing up so that you don’t order a ton and waste it, and so that they can still make money. So some of the sushis are a little small, but that’s ok because you can order more. They also have what amounts to an upgraded menu which you can order from for about $ 4 more, if I’m remembering correctly, but neither of us felt the need to do that. Instead, we spent our time consistently ordering some favorites (mmm white tuna!) and then trying some things that we were a little puzzled by. I’m not sure that all of these were quite what we were interested in, but isn’t trying everything sort of the point of a place like this?
My biggest complaint (other than the puzzling décor, which seemed to have a theme of sticks and visually-​assaulting paint colors) would be that the vegetable tempura was absurdly small. You order the broccoli tempura and you’re going to get two bite-​sized pieces. I mean… they have a fee for things you don’t finish, so I felt that maybe they could have stepped it up a bit and gone for a more generous 5 broccolis.

Was gifted a living social deal so had no excuse not to try this place out.
The restaurant was elegant, clean, but a bit cold (need to crank the heat up).
Service was good. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. The sushi was good. Some up and downs though: one of my salmon cuts was a bit old, and the other very fresh. Same thing happened with a veggie tempura: one was crisp and clean and the other soggy and old. There was a good selection, smaller in comparison to other all you can eats, with good composition and flavors.
The one down side I would have to say was the speed of service. Compared to other all you can eats, it was rather slow. We waited approximately 20 minutes before getting our first order in.
Overall a good all you can eat experience, but if you want faster service with higher selection of sushi/​food with comparable friendly staff and setting, I would highly recommend Sushi Crescent.

We shared the all you can eat $ 20 special. There were plenty of things to choose on the menu. We ordered several types of dumplings (stay away from the peanut (sauce) dumplings) and fresh fish slices. They had no tuna roll on the menu, but we were happy with everything else.
Just know that you’ll end up paying $ 50 minimum for two all you can eat
specials. Come hungry. Also $ 1 is added to the bill for everything uneaten. This means don’t order the peanut dumplings if you don’t think you’ll like them…
Lastly, take a trip to the bathrooms… they’re themed.

I walked into this place about 2pm for a late lunch on a rainy afternoon. The restaurant façade and décor looked well put together, but the place was completely empty.
I had the orange chicken set, while my friend ordered a shrimp bento box. The miso soup came out first and while initially savory, it quickly became apparent that it was too salty and should have been watered down a bit more. The orange chicken came up next and was not what I expected, but I was still keeping an open. Unfortunately it too had enough salt to pickle me. It tasted of burnt marmalade and was served with a watery slightly sweet sauce on the side, that I couldn’t find a good use for since the chicken was already covered in a thick brown sauce.
On the other hand, my friends shrimp looked amazing and he said they were tasty. I tried a piece of his sushi roll and it was a bit small but otherwise good.
So the moral of this story is go with the sushi and go during peak hours or you’ll be wondering if the place is even open.
