Review Summary

Biiru comes across as a lively, highly regarded Japanese fusion spot where the tasting menu, creative cocktails, and generous share plates consistently impress, backed by attentive service and a welcoming atmosphere; the food is described as flavorful, well presented and varied, with standout items like ribs, salmon preparations, takoyaki, and matcha desserts highlighted, while some guests find portions small for the price, the venue noisy at peak times, or the dining room chilly, and a few reservations or seating hiccups can occur; the terrace is a beloved option and the overall experience tends to be memorable and worth returning for.

hello restomontreal
i'm japanese & i know a lot about izakaya in montreal, TO & Vancouver BC. i went to biiru izakaya & loved it a lot. ambiance really similar to goldengai in bigger size (新宿ゴールデン街). really liked the food.
i think it s good & smart adaptation of japanese izakaya cuisine for north american taste. keeping the traditional tast & sometimes upgraded with american technics.

definitely a place to recommand.

merci biiru.
