I've been to Biiru a few times now for both work dinners or out with friends. Every time has been an amazing experience. Staff is on point & actually takes the time to check in & make sure you're having a good experience. Food wise incredible especially for the price. Each dish has amazing sauces & is full of flavour & has some slight twist on traditional Japanese izakaya food.

Update:

Going back a year later, the food & service are just as good. Will helped us tonight & had strong recommendations, including the haru karaage, okonomiyaki, unagi skewers, pork ribs, salmon bonbons, & more. Amazing dinner.

Superbe expérience. Grosse ambiance, super service, bonne nourriture. On ne ferait vraiment pas mieux à la maison. Apportez une petite veste, il faisait froid. Double gin-soda vraiment trop cher @25$ +tx & pourboire. À éviter.

Biiru est un restaurant japonais très convivial où on peut tester une bonne partie de la carte, mettre le tout au centre de la table & passer un excellent moment. Les différentes assiettes en format tapas sont délicieuses. Les côtes de porc & le karaage sont un must à cet endroit.

Really enjoyed my experience & lunch at Biiru. The blond Ale Beer was perfectly cold & refreshing as I experienced in Japan. & the Okonomiyaki was excellent as the waiter promised. Really cool atmosphere & really worth it to have lunch there. I will return for sure when I want that nostalgia of Japan.

Had a very pleasant meal here with my friend. We went for the tasting menu as well as two cocktails. Service was solid, our main server was friendly & attentive. We were pleasantly surprised at the amount & quality of food as the tasting menu was only $45 pp. My one complaint was that it was VERY protein-heavy with barely any veggies. I think the only vegetables were inside the gyoza & the carrots & mushrooms that were part of the beef tataki (which was delicious). It would've been nice to include the gai lan or even a salad in the menu.

J'adore ce restaurant japonais de tapas. C'est bon, casual & le service est impeccable. Les côtes levées & la salade de concombres sont mes choix préférés.
