Review Summary

DonDonYa is a small, cozy, unpretentious spot in Montreal that diners consistently praise for generous portions, tasty Japanese and Asian fusion dishes, and very reasonable prices, with frequent notes about friendly service, a welcoming homey vibe, and a menu that includes gyu don, tonkatsu, chashu don, miso cucumbers, and yam fries; while the space can feel cramped and can get crowded at dinner, leading to wait times, a few visits mention inconsistent dish quality, and occasional misfires like curry, the overall verdict is positive and DonDonYa remains a reliable, affordable go to for students and locals seeking comforting, well-executed fare.

The affordable prices & authentic cooking skills make it popular among customers. Taiwanese fried chicken is great, theirs pepper & salt seasoning is really delicious.

⚠? if the AC is more stronger, that would be perfect!
