Saint Sushi Bar Montreal

Wanna eat some Marvin Gaye sushi?

""Saint Sushi Bar" in Montreal is not a traditional Japanese sushi restaurant - rather, its focus is on playful, hiphop, 'gangsta' reinterpretations."

I’m a sushi fan. I think that all sushi pieces are work of art. I’m impressed by the talent of the cooks, their dexterity and imagination. I like to sit at the bar of a sushi restaurant, to watch them at work. And I am well served when going to Saint Sushi bar! It is quite a singular venue: managed by a bunch of funny and talented guys, the vibe is a bit gangsta style with rap and hip hop music that everybody sing aloud while calling the sushi and maki orders: “Tupac, James Brown, Bob Marley”. You gotta try it out!

It is a small locale on Duluth street, about 25 seats, with a unique and charming decor designed by the owner, Saeng Outhipvongxay.

The focus is not on traditional Japanese sushi, but playful reinterpretations. You will find a few options for sushi, maki and sashimi, a salad and a soup. Everything is quite affordable. You’re best bet is definitely the tasting menu at $ 25.50 per person. You’ll get to taste a few varieties.

In short, the food is very tasty and the staff is totally passionate, smiling and very friendly.

N. B. Please note that the restaurant does not have a liquor license.
