Biiru fonctionne comme un bistro japonais distinctif misant sur une fusion accessible de techniques traditionnelles et de styles culinaires modernes et décontractés. Le menu met en avant des plats à partager incluant des gyozas croustillants, du karaage et des brochettes assaisonnées qui s'harmonisent parfaitement avec une sélection de bières japonaises et de sakés. L'intérieur compact crée une atmosphère intime définie par des accents de bois minimalistes et des œuvres murales reflétant l'esthétique urbaine contemporaine du Japon. Les clients découvrent une emphase constante sur des saveurs umami prononcées plutôt que sur des méthodes de préparation expérimentales complexes. La disposition des petites tables facilite les interactions sociales tout en maintenant un rythme efficace durant tout le service. Cet établissement maintient un aménagement fonctionnel privilégiant la rapidité et l'accessibilité pour une clientèle cherchant des classiques régionaux reconnaissables. L'accent culinaire demeure axé sur des textures fiables et des profils d'ingrédients authentiques dans un cadre simple et dynamique.
Biiru est largement reconnu comme une excellente destination pour des tapas fusion japonaises, constamment salué pour la richesse des saveurs, son atmosphère vibrante et son décor moderne et accueillant. De nombreux convives apprécient le menu dégustation pour sa variété et son bon rapport qualité-prix, soulignant fréquemment des plats incontournables comme les bonbons au saumon, les côtes levées et le tataki de bœuf. Bien que la majorité des visiteurs bénéficient d'un service impeccable et chaleureux, certains commentaires font état d'incohérences occasionnelles dans le rythme du service, le niveau sonore ou la climatisation. Malgré ces points mineurs, le restaurant demeure un choix privilégié pour les groupes, les rendez-vous et les sorties décontractées au centre-ville de Montréal, récoltant souvent d'excellentes recommandations pour sa terrasse confortable et la qualité de ses ingrédients.
its been a decade since my last visit. Ordered the beef & salmon tartare. Salmon tartare had too much rice & a small portion of salmon for the price tag. The taste of the overall food is mehh.
First & foremost, excellent service! Second, delicious tapas! We loved everything that we had: Salmon Takoyaki Kaarage (sauve Haru) Kaarage don Edamame We will definitely go again. Fair prices too, compared to what we are seeing now in the dining scene in Montreal.

Wow! I knew the food would be tasty based on the reviews. When we walked in & saw the Pac-Man decor, I was even more excited. Then it became clear they were having a very busy night & there aren't that many servers per area. Our server, Mike, was incredible. Talk about someone who understands client services. He was clear from the start & went above & beyond to make the meal, which was my husband's birthday meal, one of the best ever. I can't overstate how much of a difference his kindness made. Without him, the food would have been awesome, but it would have been a four-star experience. He made it a 5 (or more). The food itself- pork ribs, salmon tartare, gyoza, mushroom pancake- all were memorable. It was all delicious. So thank you chefs for a perfect culinary experience & thank you Mike for making it possible for us to enjoy the food.
A bit hard to find but a cool izakaya tucked away. All the staff, including my waiter Fred was attentive & friendly. He explained the menu & the dining style well - recommendations (gyoza, caramelized salmon) were great & food came out quickly
Biiru has been one of my favourite spots to dine in Downtown Montreal for many years. I just went again this week with my girlfriend & the food, drinks & overall atmosphere were amazing as per usual. The prices are very fair & the food is served tapas style so it is easy to share. I love the ramen salade, candied salmon, the tartare & the many other tasty & unique dishes they have on their menu. Special thank you goes out to Mike & the rest of the incredible staff at Biiru for their amazing service. We will definitely be coming back soon! :)
Amazing place! Service is super good. Our waiter visited our table multiple times to check on us. They explained the portions & options with prices. I appreciated that. The food was AMAZING. We ordered Salmon, karaage & pork ribs. They also have interesting choices in cocktail menu.
We had a show at place des Arts & we were looking for somewhere to go eat before. A few weeks we had went to Hanzo & they had told us that they are working together, so we decided to give it a try. They have the same menu only a few different stuff. We got the Hasu chicken & we loved the sauce was very good, it was sweet yet spicy. The candied salmon were good, they were fried, crispy on the outside & soft on the inside. I wasn't a big fan of the sliced beef(I didn't like a cubed beef) nor the pork ribs, I would not get them again(it was too heavy). The restaurant was busy, & our waitress Juliana was really nice, we both had ordered some bloody Ceasar are the beginning & felt like it was watered down or a missing ingredient, she was really nice to make us new ones herself & checked on us so many times to make sure everything was good for us. I find that she was really friendly & nice, she was exceptional.
Cool venue. Food average. Karaage - deep fried, oil could be fresher Okonomayaki - same sauce as the Takoyaki - enjoyed the bonito flakes Takoyaki - tasty & hot Rice w/ Chopped Salmon & Sushi Paper Rolls - more seaweed to wrap the chopped salmon. Yes ... Rice krispies
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.
