I liked the vibe and the decor, the service is good. The starters were ok, but the main courses below average. The whole experience was disappointing.
Service impeccable de la serveuse nommée Mirna au Boeuf Cochon Nous avons reçu un service exceptionnel de la part de Mirna. Accueillante, attentionnée et toujours souriante, elle a su rendre notre expérience encore plus agréable du début à la fin. Elle est à l'écoute, efficace et très professionnelle, tout en gardant une belle touche humaine qui fait toute la différence. Le service était fluide, les conseils judicieux et l'ambiance parfaite. On sent qu'elle aime son travail et qu'elle se soucie réellement de la satisfaction des clients. Merci Mirna pour ce service remarquable - une raison de plus de revenir au Boeuf Cochon sans hésiter ! 🥩🍷
The food was delicious along with the service, very fast and super efficient. The butter chicken wrap, wow, you must try. Will come again soon!
Went to MtL Yardie because I heard that this is a great location for jamaican patties. When I walked in the restaurant it was extremely clean and nice. However the customer service experience that I just received was horrendous. I waited about 10 min before one of your 3 employees who were on the floor even acknowledged my presence. I was not greeted with a hello.how.can I help you, I was rather greeted with a very bad attitude and disrespectful employee. The only question I was asked was what is your order. I work as a customer service manager for 16 years and if one of my employees would ever speak to someone the way I spoken to they would get fired on the spot. This occures today feb 6th at around 5:15 pm.
Beaucoup trop cher pour des plats à base de fromage (raclette, fondue) >$100 par personne. Service laisse plutôt à désirer. Notre serveur était plus occupé à rigoler aux abois et à jouer au clown avec une autre table client. Plutôt dérangeant et surtout un manque de politesse marquant surtout pour une facture de >$450 pour 3 personnes (avec vin).
I went to Yokato Yokabai Ramen on a cold, rainy Saturday afternoon with a friend. One of those grey days where you just want warmth, something comforting, and a place that lets you linger. The space is intimate and cozy, with warm lighting, wooden accents, and Japanese murals lining the walls. It feels lived-in in the best way. Like a spot people return to often. When we arrived, only the ramen bar was open, so we waited about 40 minutes for a seat. Normally that might feel long, but the weather made it feel right. When we were finally seated, it was directly in front of the chefs, which instantly made the wait worth it. Watching the bowls come together was its own quiet kind of entertainment. Once seated, things moved smoothly. We started by sharing the pork gyoza with peanut sauce. Crispy, savory, with just enough sweetness to round everything out. A solid opener. Then came the ramen. I ordered the torikotsu, a chicken-based broth with thin noodles and chicken teriyaki. Comforting, rich without being heavy, and really well balanced. My friend went for the tonkotsu, with its deeper pork broth, tender slices of pork, and the same delicate noodles. Both bowls were deeply satisfying. The kind of food that warms you from the inside out and makes the rain outside feel intentional. One small thing to note. There was a water jug on the table, but the menu didn't list drinks and we weren't offered anything else, so we weren't sure if additional beverages were available unless requested. Not a dealbreaker, just something to know going in. We ended up opting for a special that included ramen and a yuzu panna cotta for $25, which felt like great value. The panna cotta was smooth, lightly tangy, and refreshing. A gentle ending rather than something overly sweet. The space itself is a bit tight, and it can get loud when it's full, but that closeness adds to the charm. It feels like a place where people gather for comfort, not spectacle. Yokato Yokabai is the kind of spot you crave on a cold day. Cozy, unfussy, and focused on doing ramen really well. I'll definitely be back, ideally at a quieter time when more of the space is open, but the food alone makes it worth returning to.
Last night I went to Ichigo Ichie Izakaya, a Japanese izakaya in Montreal whose name translates to'this time only'… a reminder that every moment, and every meal, is meant to be experienced fully. It's written right on the menu, and somehow the food actually lives up to that philosophy. I was there with my friend Farzy, who was invited to shoot content for the restaurant. She brought me along because I'm a hand model, a food lover, and honestly… we just always have a good time together. That energy matters. The night felt relaxed, unrushed, and very present. We ordered a mix of cold dishes, hot plates, and noodles. The Yuzu tuna tataki was bright and clean, with just enough citrus to wake up your palate without overpowering the fish. The hamachi was the standout for me… genuinely melt-in-your-mouth, silky, and balanced. One of those dishes that makes you pause between bites. For hot dishes, we shared the yakiniku épicé. I loved the flavor and the spicy sauce, but the cut itself was a bit too fatty for my personal taste. Still good, just chewier than what I usually go for. The gindara (black cod), on the other hand, was everything you want it to be… buttery, delicate, and deeply comforting. Beware of the fish bones though… We also tried the carbonara udon. I'll be honest, I'm not an udon noodle girl. I prefer thinner, less chewy noodles. But the flavor was nice. The bacon pieces were thick, crispy, and cubed nicely. Farzy asked for Japanese BBQ sauce on the side and we drizzled it over for a bit of sweetness, which made the dish work much better for me. That's something I appreciate… being able to tweak a dish to your taste at the table. For drinks, I had the Shiso Sour, which was refreshing and light… the kind of cocktail that cuts through rich dishes really well. Farzy had the Mango Majin Buu in the mocktail version, which looked fruity , refreshing , and fun. There is always room for dessert even when you are stuffed so even though my jeans were tighter around my stomach at this point we decided to order a sweet treat. The tiramisu was great… it was light , creamy, and balanced, not overly sweet, the kind that feels comforting without being heavy. The monaka aisu, with its crisp wafer shell, red bean mochi , and green tea ice cream, was cool, delicate, and quietly satisfying. The space itself is intimate, with small tables set fairly close together, so it can get lively and a bit loud as the night goes on. That said, I loved the atmosphere. The decor is beautiful, with murals of geishas and Asian-inspired artwork lining the walls, giving the room a warm, transportive feel. It's the kind of place where the energy feels buzzing rather than chaotic… especially if you enjoy being surrounded by conversation and movement. One thing I noticed quickly is that Ichigo Ichie is connected to the Michelin-recognized ramen spot Yokato Yokabai Ramen, and you can customize a ramen as part of the experience. A lot of tables around us were ordering ramen alongside the izakaya dishes. Service was warm, the pacing felt intentional, and the menu offers something for different tastes… whether you love rich dishes, lighter bites, or playful cocktails and mocktails.
Ce restaurant n'est pas un resto où vous apportez votre vin. Pourtant il s'affiche comme telle sur RestoMontréal.
