Metro Sushi

Really solid quality sushi for its price and convenience. I often come here right after work when i don’t feel like cooking. The sushi is always fresh and there are usually tons of options to choose from. My favorite is the vegetarian roll, which is quite different from the vegetarian rolls I’ve tried at other places. Nonchalant place, great for grab and go.

Fresh, yummy and a good value. For take out sushi on the go this is definitely the best I’ve had in Montréal. Fast service, a good selection and if they start to recognize you they will give you a loyalty card (although you can probably ask for one).
This isn’t upscale sushi but it is perfect for take out when you want something healthier and yummy for lunch. They have decent salads too.

Really good prices for the quality of the sushi. I go to Dawson so this is great when I feel like sushi and I don’t have too much time to eat. At first I didn’t really think it would be good because they are made in the metro but don’t be fooled. They taste great

Very Fresh, tasty and amazing when on the run. Pricing is decent and I’ve even gotten them to cater an event, they were awesome!

When you are in a rush to catch a Metro (subway), you aren’t always that picky about what to eat.
In the case of Metro Sushi you are in luck, it’s quick, fresh and tasty. The sushi can (usually) be seen in the making. Their small open kitchen is behind the counter, literally just behind it. The place is about the size of a 10′ x 10′ tent.
The owner is typically on site standing at, or near, the cash register and overseeing that the pre-​prepared sushi, (mixed trays and by-​the-​piece) are up to standard.
I have not yet tried all the varieties of Maki rolls or Sushi pieces. The ones I have tried have been quite pleasant, especially for the about right prices (in the take out non-​sit down, non-​table service category). I have to indulge in more of their offerings to really determine any true yum/​pow factor.
I am also a big fan of their pickled cucumber and carrot platter for about $ 3 (be careful since it does leak a bit of marinade juice when tipped or can splash when opened.
They have a nice selection of Asian canned and bottled beverages. I have gotten a few coconut waters on humid days to replenish fluids. Once in a while I’ll even treat myself to a little sweet or jelly dessert. I have noticed the sign for bubble tea, which note-​to-​self, needs to be tried.
I’m starting to crave some sushi, so I better wrap up this review in a seaweed salad — pun obviously intended.
When you normally see a rice cooker full and at the ready, that’s another good sign. I can’t wait to try more of their morsels or plump looking rice paper wrapped sandwiches…

Like others have said, when you hear «metro» and «sushi» together, it sounds pretty sketch. But don’t let that fool you, I’ve never had bad sushi from this place. On the contrary, it’s pretty darn good. I know some sushi snobs who would disagree, but hey, that’s them. It’s pretty cheap compared to other places, like sushi shop, and the people who work there have never been rude.

Wow. I don’t understand how people are reviewing this place so highly! Their tempura tastes like rice crispies – it’s terrible and stale. The rice is also not the best, as I find there’s too much vinegar, and they let it get too cold. I know for a fact they use «B grade» fish; I work at a sushi place, and I have to disagree with this place getting good reviews.

I’ve passed this place a million times. I live a block and a half away and take the metro to and from work everyday. I always misjudged this place due to its location, but on a whim and a craving picked up some last night and it blew my mind. The selection is fantastic, fresh and inventive. Not to mention the great price! Do yourself a favor and give a try youll do a double take when u get home or wherever ur headed!

I’m often in the Atwater Metro Station as I work in an office tower connected to the station. When Metro Sushi first opened I thought to myself ‘who’d want to eat sushi in the metro?’ After passing by a few times I decided to take a look at what they had to offer and found that it actually looked pretty good. So I decided to give it a try.
You should not judge Sushi by its location! Just like Green Eggs and Ham can be tasty in a box with a fox Sushi in the subway can be scrumptious too.
I’ve now eaten here a number of times and the sushi is consistently tasty, fresh and very reasonably priced. I would not necessarily compare this to some of the finer sushi restaurants in town but relative to your typical take out place Metro Sushi is great. If you’re thinking of picking something up from Sushi Shop you’re much better off here at metro sushi.

So you get off the metro at Atwater heading to Alexis Nihon or Dawson College.
You see a teeny room-​sized place selling sushi and you think — This can’t be good. Oh how wrong you are!
This thimble of a sushi place has some of the freshest sushi I’ve had.
I picked some up because I’d forgotten to get some at Sushi Shop in Alexis Nihon.
Guess what? I’m never going back to that particular Sushi Shop with this so close by and inexpensive and delicious and different and so fresh!
And I’ve been back several times.
The rice is light, the flavours pop and they have points card for a free item after 10 purchases.
Granted this is NOT a fancy sushi restaurant by any means BUT it is fresh, the staff is amazingly friendly, courteous and helpful and it’s so practical to have a quick platter of sushi to grab on your way home or heading off to the movies at AMC.
