About

Biiru operates as a distinctive Japanese bistro focusing on an approachable fusion of traditional techniques and modern casual culinary styles. The menu highlights shareable plates including crispy gyoza, karaage, and seasoned skewers that pair directly with a selection of Japanese beers and sake. A compact interior creates an intimate atmosphere defined by minimalist wood accents and wall-mounted art that mirrors contemporary urban Japanese aesthetics. Diners find a consistent emphasis on bold umami flavors rather than complex experimental preparation methods. Small table arrangements facilitate social interactions while maintaining an efficient pace throughout the service duration. This establishment maintains a functional layout that prioritizes high turnover and accessibility for patrons seeking recognizable regional staples. The culinary focus remains steadfast on providing reliable textures and authentic ingredient profiles within an uncomplicated, fast-paced environment suited for casual groups.

C'est unanime pour notre groupe de 4 personnes, un des meilleurs restaurants, un service impeccable, une expérience culinaire incroyable & une ambiance vraiment chouette. Nous avons eu une très belle soirée. Un vrai 5 étoiles sur toute la ligne.

C'était délicieux!🤌🏼

Nous avons commandé les nouilles Udon, le tataki de boeuf, les brocolis, le saumon bonbon, & les brochettes de boeuf au fromage. C'était toooo much food mais on a tout mangé quand même 😂

Nous reviendrons assurément 👌🏼

Food was excellent. Service was great however the attitude of the hostess not the greatest. There were only a few tables occupied when we arrived. When we ask to change table she told us no then proceeded to tell us the seating policy was 2 hours. Exactly 2 hours later we were ask to leave even if the restaurant was not full & there were no line up to get in. This is very unfortunate as the food is very good. Consider this restriction when making a reservation.

The culinary highlight of our 4 days on Mtl. We had the tasting for 2. $45 each, six dishes, plus a few extras, then a nice matcha cake & a few creative cocktails. All well prepared & presented. Friendly & on-point service. Lively atmosphere. The izakaya may be the next big trend. It'll be on our must visit list for subsequent trips to Mtl.

Not a big fan of their ramen with watery chicken broth, sorry. A lot of other items on the menu are very delicious though. It makes me feel inspired when I sit outside & stare at the sumo wrestler on the wall as I eat everything else on the menu. It's nice to eat a lot & become huge to easily walk through crowds.

Delicious Japanese food with a great ambience for work or pleasure & outstanding service. Prices are a little steep for the amount of food in each dish.
