If you're seeing this review, stop scrolling, stop looking, stop debating, just go here. This is by far the most amazing place I've been to in Montreal. Aside from the incredible atmosphere with Japanese decor & cool lighting, great music, friendly staff, & good service, the food is delicious. We couldn't decide what to get, so we were offered a tasting menu, which included what felt like an infinite amount of food, each one better than the previous. Every dish was so different & tasty, never mind being such a generous size & so filling. This was the first time in 4 years my boyfriend & I have never not been able to finish the portion served. This is a must try place in Montreal, especially for the taster menu that changes day by day. Thank you Biiru!

The service was so quick. As soon as we were done a drink or a plate, we were asked how it was or if we want more. Our favourite item was the candied salmon. Although the okonomyaki & fried octopus balls were also delicious. We finished it off with the mochi cake which was also very impressive. I would 100% go back! Would recommend if you love Japanese/Asian food.

Sooooo overrated!!! The food is just ok but the prices are way to high for what you get! The octopus balls don't have much octopus in them & while they taste ok, they taste exactly the same as at other "japanese" places in Montreal. If they want people to come taste them at biiru they better differentiate a bit... the okonomiaky is missing about 50% of the ingredients that you get in japan... & the short ribs are just sweet & spicy, no complexity what so ever... everything is well cooked & server warm & everything but it is just missing something... & that brings me to the service... why do waiters at above the average priced restaurants feel complied to ignore customers? Is snobbism a dish on the menu? Took them forever to come & take the order & then they act like you bothered them... bottom line: tourist trap.

Food is dry & salty. Tables & seats are narrow & you can barely walk. There isn't much to choose from the menu neither. There are better Japanese cuisine out there & I don't think I will come back.

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.
