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.
Cozy Japanese restaurant with some amazing dishes! I had the curry tonkatsu along with a miso soup, popcorn chicken, & a grapefruit oolong tea. It was all fantastic! Easily the best tonkatsu I've ever had!
This used to be a favorite of ours, but shrinkflation to the max. Lower quantities, higher price, lower quality. We used to eat here once a month, we won't again.
Cute little well designed spot. The food isnt super special but for the price & the kind staff id say its definitely worth a visit. I'd definitely recommend this place!
Super petit restaurant: Bonne nourriture (tout ce qu'on a goûter était vraiment délicieux) Service efficace & personnel accueillant La salle est un peu petite (pas sûr d'avoir une place) mais très bien décoré J'ai adoré le format du menu, illustré avec des Polaroïd (moi qui aime avoir un visuel du plat avant de commander, j'ai trouvé ça super & original)! Je ne peut que recommander !!
Bonne place pour manger des plats originaux, & la carte est quand même variée. La place est très petite donc il est recommandé de manger à emporter. J'ai pu manger sur place lors de ma visite, mais les sièges ne sont vraiment pas comfortable
Nice little spot in downtown Montreal, food was amazing & there was so much to choose from, I would suggest to tidy up a bit the place since the space available is not a lot it's easy to go from cozy to messy but like the vibe.
