Review Summary

Café Noya is a popular spot in Montreal known for its cozy atmosphere and quality Japanese-inspired menu, particularly its flavorful udon dishes, variety of onigiri, and matcha-based drinks. Many customers appreciate the welcoming service and find the space well-suited for both casual dining and studying, though the café frequently gets busy, which can lead to longer wait times and limited seating. While opinions on portion sizes and flavor profiles vary, with some finding specific dishes bland or overpriced and others praising the authentic taste and comforting quality, the overall consensus highlights it as a reliable destination for a quick, satisfying meal or a refreshing beverage.

Honnêtement, c'est la 6e fois que je retourne chez Café Noya pour les délicieux Onigiri ainsi que la Soupe Udon au boeuf.
J'adore !

Waited about 30 minutes to receive my order even though there were only three customers in the restaurant. The taste was okay, but the long wait time was disappointing.

J'ai bien aimé presque tout ce que j'ai essayé! À part le riz au boeuf, très fade, sans sauce & sans légumes. & le onigiri au boeuf aussi… le croissant au porc est excellent ainsi que la crème brûlée au ube! J'adore leurs mochis aussi! Seul bémol, tout est extrêmement cher & les portions ne justifient pas leurs prix. C'est dommage car s'il faisaient juste être un peu plus généreux ou s'ils enlevaient 2$ à chaque plat ou du moins à certains plats, ça ferait toute la différence! Overall je ne suis pas déçue, j'y vais souvent, mais certaines choses méritent d'être améliorées.

The dishes are ok.
If you are used to Japanese food, stick to the udon & don't have omu rice or other dishes (lack of flavor, rice cooking is not the best)

Dango are served fridge temperature & the Sakura mochi rice is super hard.

The staff is nice but has little to no real knowledge about Japanese food despite the fact that this cafe claims to be a Japanese cafe (on several occasions, they did not understand when I asked for something like a hanami dango, correcting me'the 3 color)

The food portion is relatively small for the price, especially the udon was pretty small. The drinks are more reasonable, I would recommend the drinks more than the food. The rice had a lot of rice on the bottom but little topping.

On the plus side, there was plenty of seating available on a Saturday afternoon, & the staff were friendly & welcoming.

Delicious, hearty beef udon soup & kind, genuine service!
Diner vibe was nice but could be a cozier.
I wish more meat was given for the price, especially the gy?don, I felt it was skimpy.
