Review Summary

Hoshi is a cozy and highly regarded Japanese restaurant located in Montreal's Chinatown, celebrated for its authentic dishes, particularly the crispy and juicy pork katsu, flavorful curries, and generous portion sizes. Many diners appreciate the friendly, attentive service and the welcoming atmosphere that evokes memories of Japan, often highlighting the complimentary creamy mushroom soup as a standout inclusion. While the quality of the food and the value for the price receive widespread praise, the restaurant is quite small with limited seating, which frequently results in wait times and queues. Despite the occasional critique regarding music volume or inconsistent preparation in some dishes, the overwhelming consensus is that this hidden gem is well worth a visit for anyone seeking delicious, comfort-style Japanese cuisine.

Came several times & the food is always delicious & they're generous with their portions. The tempuras are fried perfectly & everything is super flavorful & fresh.

The restaurant is very small but you don't feel uncomfortable eating there.

Cute little eatery, with its 20 seats, a paradise for pork cutlet lovers! Each generous dish comprises a big, thick chunk of cutlets served with rice (katsudon), udon (curry) or bread (sando). The lunch specials were a bang for your buck, offering a combo with a second extra soup.

Very cute restaurant, food was exceptional, generous both in size & in price. Bit of a slow service, but well worth it for the food.

Heavily recommend the Hire Curry Udon

Small & cozy Japanese restaurant in a corner of China town.

Food is SO GOOD, worth the wait. Portion is generous. KATSU is must try.

I went for lunch since I was craving tonkatsu. I ordered the salmon salad which had large pieces of marinated salmon which were very tasty & it was a very generous portion that can easily be shared by 2 people. The rosu katsu meal was exactly what I was expecting, a large, juicy piece of pork loin that had a nice crispy exterior. I enjoyed it with the wasabi & the salt. It was delicious. Served with thinly sliced cabbage, miso soup & rice. Service was very friendly. It's a great place & I will be back

The portion's very generous ! I really loved the taste & balance of the sauce that they put on the tempuras.

The spicy salmon for entree is also big serving so I recommend ordering it to share!

The katsu was not dry & the curry sauce was very rich & nice.

We went to Montreal for a quick weekend trip, & I had high hopes for Hoshi! We got the fried pork meatball appetizer, ten don & the curry katsu. The ten don was good, it could use a bit more rice at the bottom. It had 3 shrimps, 1 scallop, an egg, fried nori, sweet potato & I think radish? Curry katsu wasn't my favourite, it was a bit dry, & the curry was extremely heavy on onions. I prefer my curry smooth. Serving was generous, we ended up taking the leftovers home. I'm usually used to katsu having coleslaw, & sauce & grinded sesame on the side. The fried meat balls were dry & a bit flavourless. There's dots of sauce on the side to make the plating look nice, & it was, however, I feel like sauce on the side in a separate container would have been better. The avocado at the bottom was a bit out of place. The restaurant is cozy but it's too tight in between the tables. It did take ~30-40 mins for our food to come out though. Not my favourite place, but for a ten don fix, I would go here specifically for that!
