Amazing Japanese food selection, fresh sashimi, chirashi options & crab bao. Absolutely love the Grape Republic wine selection. Wish more people new about this place so they would get the traffic they deserve ❤️View more
Came here on a date with my wife & enjoyed my time here. While it's not a restaurant I'm exactly willing to drive out of way for, I'm still very happy to have tried it. We ordered the hand rolls, the salmon baos & the mazemen. Everything tasted delicious, but I thought everything was either too small of a portion or way too expensive. My favorite dish was the salmon Bao, which come in a set of 2. The flavors complimented eachother really nicely & the bun was homemade fresh, which you can taste right away. The hand rolls are good, but was way too expensive. The noodles we got as the main dish were very good, though a bit on the oily side. The whole thing was $120 after tax & we didn't order any drinks.View more
Great service. The bartender had great recommendations.View more
Extraordinarily small portions of adequately prepared mains & starters, at a price that screams "our rent is too high", served in a pleasantly decorated locale. Bring a phone to text others at your table as the sound levels tend reach a volume where voice conversation impossible. Strongly suggest that you skip the desserts, unless you are a fan of poorly prepared desserts void of any imagination. You can do a lot better than Otto. I am dubious of other reviews as most of the clients seemed to be there to pose with their food for Insta selfies. I suspect most may have never tried the food ordered after photographed.View more
I regret not capturing photos, but the experience was simply outstanding. The service was exceptional; they checked for allergies, & once confirmed, we placed our order. Everything was delightful & refreshing. The flavors were sophisticated & carefully crafted. We savored dishes like the Piri Kara Nasu, a fried eggplant marinated in miso soy sauce with chili, served cold, as well as shrimp & pork dumplings, & the chef's choice sashimi.View more
All the ingredients are very fresh which makes every bite an incredible experience. Definitely on the more expensive side & a bit of a wait between dishes, but it attests to the detail & care they put into their food. Great service as well. Personally wasn't a huge fan of the eggplant but the rest was top tier. I will definitely be back to relive some of the great bites, & discover new ones.View more
La nourriture était excellente, bon rapport portion-prix-qualité. Le service était super, les employés étaient rapides & conviviaux. Belle ambiance. Seul bémol est que le menu Saint-Valentin décrivait plus ou moins bien les plats alors on a eu besoin d'explications & on ne savait pas trop à quoi s'attendre. Mais chaque plat était une agréable surprise !View more
Brilliant Izakaya. Great sake list. Good sushi. The soft shell crab boa bun is a must!View more
Bistro japonais au décor intérieur attrayant, plutôt populaire. Bon service à table. Par contre, l'alcool dans le cocktail peu perceptible, pas trop grave, mais indicateur du reste. Les portions de certains plats principaux sont petites pour leur prix élevé. Recommandé pour l'atmosphère, moins pour la bouffe.View more
Very surprised by all the strong reviews. I had high expectations & they fell flat. The crab bun had good flavor but the crab was tiny & had practically no meat. It just added crunch to the bun. The sashimi platter disappointed me the most. It says it comes with 10 pieces, with 2 slices of each fish. The slices were so thin & small that it was as if they took a slice meant for 1 person & sliced it again. Uni mazamen had a clumpy creamy sauce that didn't taste like much. Uni & Ikura were not fresh at all. With that being said, service was great! Cozy place.View more
I've been eating at Bar OTTO for over a year now & I'm never disappointed. The food is always amazing & the menu changes seasonally. Their sake selection is one of my favourites. So many restaurants have a very poor choices but not here. They deal with two of the best sake distributors in the city so they always have amazing bottles to offer. Marie-Pierre & the rest of the wait staff are top notch & friendly. You should add this to your go to list 🙌🏼View more

Bar Otto on Notre-Dame West stands out as one of my favourite dining spots in the city. The commendable price-value ratio pairs well with the exceptional quality of their fish & meat offerings. The staff's casual & welcoming demeanour adds a friendly touch to the dining experience, making it an ideal choice for a laid-back date night. A definite highlight is the chirashi plate, a fantastic option for fish enthusiasts. Complementing the culinary delights, Bar Otto boasts an impressive selection of natural wines, further enhancing the overall dining experience. Whether you choose to indulge in a dine-in experience to immerse yourself fully in the inviting ambiance or opt for the convenient take-out option, Bar Otto consistently delivers top-notch quality. Highly recommended for those seeking a memorable culinary adventure in Montreal.View more
I had the ramen & the fried chicken. It was delicious but not spectacular in the sense that you can definitely find similar in the city. The place is a bit small but it works. Service was great! I probably won't go back because there are so many restaurants to check out but I think it's worth it at least once!View more
Pas fou Quantité petite & bouillon du ramen vraiment pas très travailléView more
The restaurant was cozy & nice! The staffs were very professional & kind! We ordered fried chicken to share & I ordered a porc katsu! I liked the mashed potatoes but wish if they could have served rice with it! The portion was pretty big so it might be better to order some other small dish & share! I think this place is more known for sashimi & nigiri, so that is something I am going to try next time!!View more
