The Best Montreal Sushi Restaurants | Eater Montreal

"One of the most beloved sushi chefs in Montreal, Trì Dư has cultivated a loyal following of admirers after spells at Kaizen, Treehouse, Le Petit Treehouse, and for the past decade, at his own Tri Express in the Plateau. There’s also a newer, more casual second location further north, on Saint-Zotique." - Ivy Lerner-Frank

It was my third time trying sushi, and this place did not disappoint! The employees are sooo friendly and make you feel very welcomed :) Recommend their Makis (avocado, cucumber, salmon) ❤️

Went for my birthday and had a fantastic time! Food was excellent, service was great and the decor was very fun. I highly recommend the chef's choice omakase 1 and the sushi pizza. We also tried the special of the day (black cod), and it was absolutely incredible. The portions were great, and we were extremely full at the end. Definitely would come back!

The food is very fresh, they have a great tasting menu it looks a bit small on paper but it was actually pretty good portions and we were pretty full just ordered an extra miso soup that was absolutely delicious. Make sure to reserve as they are very busy most days. They also do take out.

We've been going to Tri for almost as long as it has been in business. The food is always good and unique from other sushi restaurants. It's a SMALL space but the atmosphere is enhanced with the uniqueness of how the place is decorated. See it to believe it. Taste it and you'll be back.

I really enjoyed the sushi and presentation at Tri Express. The place is cozy and tastefully decorated. The sashimi was delicious and I never thought I'd comment about the ginger but it was so fresh and packed a punch. There are only a few tables available for on-site dining so I suggest reserving in advance.

Delicious and fresh food, the service was incredibly quick and the decor is very maximalist but cute and cozy. I really recommend this place! It's quite small so make sure you have a reservation to not have to wait outside.

This place is a pure delight. From the tacky decorations that covers the entire restaurant, to the friendly staff, to the DELICIOUS sushis, you can’t go wrong at Tri Express. Most probably the best sushi in town, and very affordable for the quality you get. The tasting menu is a great option for your first time there. You won’t be disappointed! Oh, and their Tri Sauce is so good, you won’t want soy sauce with your sushis ever again.

Amazing sushi served in a beautifully quirky decor. Shared the meal for two with a friend and it was so fresh, flavourful and well portioned. Highly recommend and will be back!

This was the last restaurant I went to before all of this mess at the beginning of March. We came on a Saturday night and were seated at the bar. First of all, the atmosphere is super unique. All your senses (especially your visual sense) are stimulated by the decor, the action and the sushi preparation right before your eyes. We each ordered the Omakase 1 platter (sashimi (4), sushi (4), maki (10). There was a miscommunication with our waiter and he only gave us one of the platters. There was some confusion at first but eventually, the sushi chef behind the counter (owner or manager?) brought us another platter and threw in some extra dishes. Everything was delicious and fresh. Unique flavours and textures. Reasonable price for the quality

Hole in the wall type resto - small seating, cozy environment and amazing food! The chef/owner is always behind the counter orchestrating everything! He has his eye on every table ensuring everyone is having a pleasant time. I love this restaurant because he has his own creations and he serves them well. Presentation is beautiful. Seating is a bit cramped, but it adds to the experience. This is a resto you should take your friends or relatives that are coming out of town to. Especially if they like sushi. It was surely impress. Note: my partner doesn't eat fish at all. There was one filet mignon item on the menu and it got his seal of approval i guess that says alot! Thank you chef tri! Ps: make a reservation on Friday and Saturday or else you'll be stuck waiting in line! Ps2: posted english menu pictures!

Tri Express is the size of a walk-in closet yet packs a ton of personality in both decor and personnel: master sushi chef Tri is friendly (haven't cleaned my hand since shaking his!) and his place is just as bright and welcoming. And the sushi's delicious. While this BYOB is a charming date spot, sizable parties may wish to opt for take away. Get the omakase menu to go (no joke). Everything is expertly prepared and packaged, ready to handle the trek to your flat. The sushi is marvelously fresh, the sashimi heavenly, and the flavors creative (try the rice crackers topped with seafood). Plus, there's plenty of wasabi and ginger if needed. Bring cash.

Best sushi in the city by a mile. An incredible quaint ambience with even better quality of ingredients and food. Please do not change a thing.

My friend and I got the chef special 15 pieces The salmon was very soft and fresh, it was melting by itself in our mouths The service was good, a bit too fast even, they didn't want us to starve so every time we finished a place the next one was right in the middle of our table We didn't know that they do not sell alcohol there, so we wanted to have sake and we finished by passing our tour as we didn't went to go out and buy something 3 blocks away where the Saq is located Here is the hint, stop at the Saq before getting in

My favorite sushi in Montreal. I have been coming to Tri Express for a decade, and their standards are always top notch. It has been a pleasure having these guys as my neighbors for so long, but also ... The food is crazy delicious. This is not an 'ordinary' sushi place, though you can get traditional rolls here, one might venture to try their lobster on rice cracker, filet mignon salad, or scallop sashimi which are creative and delicious additions to a staid sushi menu. It's food which is decadent in taste, but always feels clean and healthy. The place has a great atmosphere, as the owner takes a lot of time to collect and design offbeat pieces, which makes the place feel both cozy and funky. The one criticism I would say is the almost aggravating frugality they employ by installing an ATM in their place to avoid, I suppose, paying fees most every other restaurant in town pays, by refusing the use of a debit card, so it is cash only. Have cash in hand when you come here, or be sanctioned to the ATM to take some out to pay your bill. A bit of a cheap move? Yeah. But they know it won't stop people from coming.

The place is small but unique and the deco is nice. Sushi is good, but not the best I've tried.

The sushis there are a game changer. Very different from the conventional sushi places. The staff is extremely friendly too. This is the place where i try to being all my friends to at least once.

Disappointing... I prefer Saint Sushi... Its more on the pricey side, and their rolls are just okay, nothing special. Ordered the chef's special and the tri roll (the one with rice paper) and they were not impressive. The sashimi with thin apple slices was really amazing tho The decor was worth taking pictures haha

This place is hands down one of my favourite sushi places in town (apart from Park). For slightly more than a all you can eat dinner fare, you can get a good quality filling tasting menu. Unlike some of the previous reviewers, I've actually had a better experience here than at saint sushi - I found that the food was better seasoned (especially the christmas trees and the rolls). The quality of the fish was much better than the sushi buffet and the rolls were more delicately prepared and very innovative! This place does not serve your typical sushi but if you want something out of the ordinary that is full of flavour, my suggestion is Tri-Express. The restaurant can get quite busy so make sure to call and rsvp ahead of time.

Not safe for Celiac's or gluten intolerant!! I called to know if it was a safe place for gluten free rolls. I told them I was celiac. The person on the phone assured me the rolls I ordered would be gluten free. Right before finishing my second roll My stomach started to feel weird so I left my last roll. I then asked if I had any imitation crab in my roll and they assured me it was gluten free. I then asked To see the ingredients label on the crab sticks and there it was "wheat" was on the label in the ingredients list!!!! Even the sauces looked questionable! They don't even have gluten free soy sauce. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST IF YOU ARE CELIAC OR INTOLERANT TO GLUTEN! THEY DONT KNOW WHAT GLUTEN IS! THEY DID NOTHING TO CORRECT THE SITUATION, STILL CHARGED ME FOR IT. AND NOW I FEEL SICK!! Thanks Tri Express! Thanks so much! I will Remember you.

For me, It's the best sushi in montreal, OK this place has so many good dishes, best is to go with friends, like 4 ppl is the best so you can really order some food, and sample. The place is small, it's casual, eat and go place, and the service is very efficient. First the salads, both the lobster and filet mignon (seared but rare) salads are good, trust me you have never had salad like this before!!! The chef has this "mix" that he calls "Tri's" , it's basically tobiko, tempura (which are like salty rice crispies) mixed with your selected fish or lobster and spicy mayo. it's good but it can get rich if you order too much of it. I recommend one or two dishes of the Tri style. The Tri style is peppered throughout the menu... The sushi pizza is worth a mention, it's pricey but feeds 2-4 ppl. The topping is Tri style and easily 10 cm tall, lol. you can have it with salmon or tuna or lobster if you want something cooked. The Sashimi (salmon or tuna or both) is the most original and tasty I've ever had anywhere. it comes drenched in soy sauce, with spicy sprinkles, roasted sesame seeds, and granny smith juliennes. The soy sauce is perfectly balanced. I'm not too fond of sashimi, but this one I always order when I'm here... Of the rolls, special mention to the cucumber roll, it's called "le divin" instead of nori, it is rolled with cucumber, it comes with special soy sauce and it's fresh and light. The other roll i like is the "favori de Tri" which is wrapped in rice paper, original. The fish here is always top notch and fresh!!! though it would be nice if the slices were thicker... I've brought friends from all over and they all liked it because it's quite different from regular sushi places... even the sushi snobs from NYC and vancouver like this place so there you go ;) oh and remember cash only !!! about 30$ per person, 45$ if you're a pig :P

A few quick points worth noting: *CASH ONLY. Be sure to have a pocket full of guap. *NO ALCOHOL. If you're into pairing wine with your sushi, this ain't the place for you. *RESERVE YOUR PARTY. It's highly advised that you call ahead to avoid the wait. Peep the photos in my review and you'll regret not coming sooner. FYI, your honored cutie will be mesmerized with the decor and vibe. Style and cool points are definitely in your future my friend. Tri Express and I have quite a few things in common. We are both nestled in a hipster village, rich in texture, small in stature but full in flavor, and are both accessible by the Orange Line; Tri via STM in The Plateau (Laurier), and me via MBTA in Jamaica Plain. That only means one thing: We were absolutely destined to cross paths and culinarily knock boots, with the aid of some chop sticks. Kinky I know. The staff here are very personable and easy to spark a conversation with. The sushi chefs suggested spots to hit that locals frequent for a nights worth of some good times. You guys were great! We'll meet again very soon. *Beantowns Finest*

I relish visiting Montreal because of Tri Express. I've been tempted to buy a plane ticket just to eat there. Chef Tri is the rockstar of the sushi world and I'm totally and unabashedly a groupie. I don't throw my panties at him when he's making sushi but the food is that good that I've been tempted too. I first encountered his genius ingredient pairings when he was at Kaizen and also at Le Petit Treehouse but I much prefer his latest incarnation at Tri Express. C'est magnifique! Tips: Go with a few people (max 4... the tables are tiny!) and order Omakase III. It is the best way to experience his mastery at work.

I was really not impressed with this restaurant. The food was overpriced for what it is and it really lacks originality. I prefer Saint-Sushi for the same price range. If there's a dish I recommend, it would be the sashimi salmon with apple slices. It was the only dish that I found to be outstandingly good. The other sushi dishes were, for a lack of words, "meh".

Best sushi in town. It's an old school diner converted into a sushi restaurant, and all the decorations were created by the main man Tri himself, and there's an absolute Plateau charm to the place. And the food--well, like I said, best sushi in town. Pricey? Budget between $30-40 per person. And make a reservation if you're there for a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday night.

Three of us tried the $25 tasting menu. It was a good price but nothing was like WOW. It seemed like this place have a lot of deliveries as the waiters were pretty busy most of the time. This is definitely a good sushi place for delivery standard, but maybe not worth the effort to go in and sit down for their food. This place does not offer authentic sushi. They put avocado in every roll, which I don't like at all. Their new style sashimi was good, creatively topped with some apple added some unique flavour. But everything else was just so so.

Dnsjahwidnemsknegngnrjejebrbw THIS PLACE IS JUST AMAZING. I have never tried sushis as good since I've been in Vancouver . Not much picture because I was with a group of people and it looked too odd! Yeah I'm old fashion , I have to let others enjoy their food before harassing them for a picture ... Anyway , the restaurant is mad busy so don't bother coming without a reservation if your party is more than three. THEY STILL DO OFFER TAKEOUTS , y'all should take that in note :) I'm a bit biased as I was invited for an event that was pretty made by the son's owner . However , the cuisine and the food was impeccable , I think I'm pretty much in one with that place . Service is very efficient and fast . The crowd is young , trendy and hipster . But no worries everyone is accepted in this place , they will still serve you with a big smile hehehe. Food is great , or A to the M TO THE A TO SO ZINGGGGG , can you hear me now ? It's just freaking amazing . Y'all gotta try the salad cause the sauce tastes so good and me likes when it melts within mah mouth . The rolls are huge and very well made , I am saying this as I have experienced Vancouver Japanese cuisine and this is on par ! Did you hear me yelper? IT IS ON PAR! Okay me thinks I'm going a little crazy , but tri express is definitely a must try in term of sushi WITHIN MONTREAL . Worry less about my words , and go discover this charming place . Hey I'll for sure become a regular here :$

I had mixed feelings about Tri Express. I'm a huge sushi fan so I was excited to give it a try. The location itself is pretty small , so small in fact in some areas I felt i couldn't move properly and I'm a small person to begin with. However it is pretty inside and looks clean. While the fish was very fresh the rolls lacked originality and flavour. The seaweed was used in excess which is usually fine but it was so chewy that it was really noticeable, also the rice/rolls weren't holding together very well even with the help of his seaweed. service was not very friendly , not outright rude necessarily but honestly they sort of rush you and don't make you feel welcome or even smile really. the prices were okay (CASH ONLY), I feel like I could have gotten better sushi and a better overall experience elsewhere for that same amount of money though. Saint sushi bar is definitely the better option by far in this price range.

If you read the reviews for this place, you'll discover that it's pretty polarizing. Keep that in mind when reading my review, or any others. You'll either love it, or not. The decor... is colourful. I wouldn't describe it as "hipster", or cool; it's as if Eva B threw up all over Arts Cafe. I found it eye-jarring and distracting. If you can find the random boot lying on the floor, you get 20 points. One would hope that the presence of fishing gear and nets hanging from the ceiling would be reflected in the quality of the food. Me and my date opted for Omakase 1 and 2, at which point our server (#1 of 3 that night) informed us that there was a table d'hôte not on the menu we could have for $23/person that would offer more variety. Great! First dish is this sashimi "salad" mentioned elsewhere; I felt it was honestly more of a carpaccio, and the best part of the meal. Julienned green apple, salmon, fish roe, a bit on the sweet side but refreshing. The rest of the meal was not so noteworthy, unfortunately. The theme of the rest of the evening: poor service, fish roe upon fish roe, an over-reliance on mayo, soggy tempura, and a one-note flavour of maki. The servers supplied me with her elbows in my face upon serving the first dish and had no idea what the second dish was, and had to ask the chef (it was the ever famous Christmas tree/"tartare"). The tell was the four poor pieces of sushi, consisting of meagre sliver of fish on over-vinagred rice. The menu certainly serves up a lot of bells and whistles; I didn't get to experience their maki with fruit (and hope never to). Avocados, rice paper rolls (which add an unpleasant chewiness), and explosion of "Tri ssauce " all over the menu. But if you want quality seafood and product, where the freshness and simplicity of the ingredients are allowed to sing, get thee to a real sushi shop. Oh yeah, cash only.

I tried the omakase I and it was good! Loved the first plate. It's perfect for dates and very romantic ambiance with all the decorations, even the toilet was decorated. I noticed they have lots of pick up orders and staffs were nice.

Nice atmosphere. A kind of expensive but you will get excellent sushi for that. although the restaurant was full, we got our diner within 20min. If you like sushi, it is the place to be in montreal.

I LOVE this place. Like, really, I have deep, legitimate feelings of affection for this quirky joint on the corner of Laurier and Marquette, more than I have felt for a majority of actual people. Seriously though, this is the best fusion sushi I have ever had, and I am a bit of a sushi "connaisseuse" (read: total snob). The staff is friendly and unassuming, and the decor looks like the vestiges of some funky grandma's post-war antiques shop, which obviously, is *completely awesome*, Tintin statue and ceiling-affixed blowfish included. I walked into this place because it was near where I lived... but unlike many restaurants of convenience like that, I have returned even after having moved out of the area simply because it is THAT good. It's the attention to detail here that gets me. Perfectly cut sashimi, delectably seasoned mixes in the rolls, beautiful presentation and pretty much perfect portions... even the tea is outstanding (burnt rice tea, rather than the usual cheap green tea fare). One of the best places in the city I've found so far (in fact, I'm still looking to see if anything can beat it). If you're a fusion sushi fan, it's absolutely not to be missed.

I was very conflicted by my experience at Tri Express. I am giving it a 3 star review based upon my overall experience...I state this because the service was vastly different from the quality of the food. Firstly upon arrival we were situated next to a window in the dead of winter and had to keep our coats on lest we freeze. We then had to ask our waitress twice to clean our table because after the first request she ran a wet cloth lightly over the table and left it half cleaned and sopping wet (picture posted). The service was 2 star. The food however rated a 4 star rating. Interesting and flavourful if lacking in originality...overall worth the trip.

Ahhhhh the kind of sushi that you dream about day and night... Tri Express is THE place to get the best sushi at the most affordable price!!! Do reserve in advance if you want the awesome place at the bar. Or else, you can also call to take out! And ask for the tasting menu (not the 5 services one!), they will bring you 3 to 4 dishes at around 20-25$ per person! And it would not be your boring everyday sushishop kind of sushi! no no no no! the sushis literally melt in your mouth! The rice is slightly warm and vinegary... hmmm and the fish is of course the freshest you can get. Their tuna carpaccio is served with sliced green apples and ginger with a fresh and delicious soya sauce. It will make you like your plate! Then you have the famous sushi pizza, which is a yummy and crispy mixture of lobster, tempura, caviar with their special sauce, served in a pyramid on a rice cracker! It is a party in your mouth!!! My oh my, not enough good things can be said about this place! The service is top notch and efficient. The food absolutely the best. But they just accept cash. Meh. Fair enough. And do finish your meal by walking a few streets down to Bo Bec for an awesome ice cream :)

My favorite sushi place in Montreal! I almost gave 5 stars, but there are small drawbacks--you have to pay cash, there are no desserts, we did not have much space to move around, and we waited close to 10 minutes for our table even with a reservation. But once you are sitting down, the service is fast, the staff is nice, and most importantly, the food is really delicious! I really liked the both the salad and the sushi. The decor is quite original for a sushi place. It's a good location--about 10 minutes away from Métro Laurier, and I really enjoy walking down Laurier street anyway :) I will definitely go back.

OK, this place makes GREAT sushi BUT, there were some things that made the experience less than great - first of all, it's small and ALWAYS crammed to the rafters. You will be practically sitting on someone else's lap (ever wanted to know what it's like to do a double date with a couple of complete strangers?) and reservations are a MUST. Just don't even bother going without one. If you're lucky, you'll get one of the counter seats and be able to watch the sushi-making in action, but if not, prepare to be a little awkward and uncomfortable. OH, also important to note is that THEY ONLY TAKE CASH. For all of you Montreal Anglos like me, unless you are fluent in French, what you order will be a bit of a surprise - there is no English on the menus, not even in tiny print. I really had no idea what I was getting other than tuna and shrimp as the main ingredients. This was a wee bit frustrating and the staff was too busy to stop and explain anything to me, so I just did my best. Anyway, everything I got was pretty delicious and beautifully presented, so ultimately, *whatever*. Another thing that went awry is that we ordered a bottle of San Pelligrino with our sushi, which just never came. Missing part of the order is a big no-no in my books. Nobody came to check on our table after we received our order either, because they're just too busy, so we just went without. Next time, I think I'll order take-out, even though the décor is pretty exciting inside the restaurant if you like vintage ceiling clutter.

Cheap on the meat & bad service Although the presentation was decent, the amount of fish in every dish was very disappointing. Even worse, it looks like they're trying to hide this through more starch in the tartare, and rice in the sushis. The waitress was also very rude and impatient. Will not go there again.

1. Book a reservation 2. Show up on time 3. 3 mins later you have the menu and water 4. 10 mins later you ordered 5. 15 minutes later you eat But I could wait much longer cause it's too good. Fast, quality seafood, clean, stylish and give a good tip. I went multiple times and it's always good!! This is a gem on the plateau, please go!! Small restaurant, big bathrooms :)

Despite us both getting a little bit "sick" the next day, the food was delicious. Not sure how you rate a restaurant when that happens, but we will probably go back! Edit: Went back. Delicious as always. Waitress was nice, but probably too sick to be working.

This has to be the tastiest sushi in Montreal by far. I tried the omakase menu which is a tasting menu so we got to try a bunch of different types of sushi. It is hard to pick a favourite kind but I think at the end of the day the salmon sashimi was the winner. The service was pretty quick however it was difficult to get the waiter's attention when he wasn't serving us dishes. We were a group of 6 and they didn't bring enough soy sauce for us so not everyone got some. When we tried to flag down the waiter for more we couldn't find him. Take note that it is cash only and a very small place so reservations are an absolute must. In my experience they do sittings so you have to be out by a certain time for the next group of people to come in.

Best sushi in Montreal? The rice tasted like dishwashing soap, perhaps the chef forgot to rinse his hands. I wanted to say something however my buddy who lives 2 houses down from this place is a regular here. He was making excuses so I let it go because they take good care of him. I'm fortunate to know a bit about sushi because i'm good friend's with a Japanese chef who has taught me alot. Maki rolls stuffed with crunchy tempura is not sushi. The other thing that bothered me about this place is how they don't accept anything other than CASH. Not impressed!

Just delicious! The omakase was nice, but there is an amazing dish of sashimi. There was nothing I was not satisfied with. I dare say it is among my top sushi restaurants that I have visited in my life. This place is cash only, and very busy -- make reservations ahead of time and bring cash Note: there is not only no alcohol here, but it's also NOT byob.

Very good sushi, although a lot if contains their special sauce, so you better like that flavour profile. I do! The presentation of the dishes is great and they have a surprising variety of dishes if you are with someone who doesn't eat sushi. The decor is eclectic and very original. The service is friendly and effective.

Fantastic sushi! Very fresh and full of wonderful flavours. Everything I have tried has been very tasty but I highly recommend any of the "À La Tri" items. The space is small but that doesn't take away from the experience. The owner is often around and will not hesitate to ask if you enjoyed your meal. The rest of the staff is also friendly. Be sure to make sure to make a reservation.

Great sushi place. Great prices. Superbe location. Friendly staff. We can order too Be careful as this place doesn't serve alcohol. But to be honest I like it that way. It keeps the price down. The decor is very unusual for a sushi place but that is why I like about it. I just love the place as going there or takeout for eating in the nearby park.

There's been a buzz about this restaurant for years but I've never been until today. I really liked it! It definitely has that cool "Plateau" vibe. Like everybody says, the place is really small and really buzzing (do take out if you are a group of more than 4). We had the chef special, which was about a selection of best sushis/dishes. The food was fresh, inventive and delicious. Montreal doesn't have a great selection of Japanese restaurants compared to other places I've been. However, Tri is probably one of the best in the city.

There's been a lot of hype about this place over the years but I never quite understood why. It's small, cramped, and doesn't have a liquor license. The food is OK, but unfortunately the same flavours come out in most of their sushi rolls, so one gets very sick of that mayo/tempura/secret sauce combo that seems to be everywhere. I never found the service to be that friendly either... There are much better experiences to be had at other sushi spots in the city.

Best sushi I've had in Montreal. We usually take a set menu at 25$ which gets us the lot: sushi tartare, sashimi, sushi, maki. Always leaving with a very full stomach. Always very fresh and the service is quick. I would advise to make a reservation even if you go on a week day as the place is tiny and fills up very quickly. Also, they only take cash.

Very good sushi place, the service is efficient. Sushis are very fresh, the sashimi salad is really good, but i would not reorder the sushi pizza as it is too big and tastes similar to the tartares. Overall a very good place to have sushi!

Cute but underwhelming sushi restaurant. I'm all in favor of new and innovative combinations of flavors and textures. But after two visits, I'm not convinced. At the end of the day, everything seems to taste the same, drenched in their house sauces with the fish mashed into mush.

Great sushi for the price. We always go for the tasting menu and leave full with our pockets still heavy with cash. I must "tri".
