Review Summary

Hoshi is widely regarded as a hidden gem in Chinatown that offers an authentic and high-quality Japanese dining experience. Patrons consistently praise the pork katsu for being exceptionally tender, juicy, and perfectly crispy, often highlighting it as the standout dish on the menu. The restaurant is noted for its generous portion sizes, flavorful sauces, and beautiful presentation, all provided at reasonable prices. While the space is cozy and limited, which can lead to wait times during peak hours, the service is frequently described as warm, efficient, and exceptionally friendly. Many guests appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as the complimentary soup, and feel that the delicious, homestyle cooking makes the visit well worth the trip.

Hoshi is a hidden gem in Chinatown. The restaurant is small & they don't take reservations, so it's best to go during non-peak hours to avoid the long lineups. Their pork cutlet katsu is an absolute must-try-I was blown away from the very first bite of the sandwich. The meat was incredibly juicy & full of flavor.

The salmon tataki & salmon bowl are also really good, but the pork is definitely the show-stealer. A spot well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Well made, nice quality pork katsu with curry & rice. Service staff were really nice & attentive. They were out of the menu item I wanted, but to be fair I went in a very busy weekend. Interesting spot in Chinatown.

Tiny place but great service & good Japanese food. If the curry could taste a bit stronger & the pork be a bit juicier, then it would be perfect. Looking forward to coming back

Was on the lookout for some katsu curry. Reviews looked promising, so I gave it a go. Was not disappointed, the food & service were top notch. I went for the rosu (pork) katsu curry & it was great! Highly recommend a visit.

The food was quite solid tbh. Definitely the most tender pork katsu I had in MTL, & the sauces were pretty good too. On the negative sides, the breading was seriously wet on my cutlet which is a big disappointment, & there didn't seem to be any bathroom.

We got the Curry Pork Fillet & Pork Fillet Tonkatsu. It was delicious, the pork was tender & juicy, they also gave a creamy soup as an entrée that was very good. The staff was also helpful & nice.
Will definitely come again.

Rosu katsu - Pork was tender & juicy. A bit bland. There was Not as much fat as I expected in this cut.
Many places that serve katsu, serve cabbage salad with a sesame dressing. They have a more yozu type. It was fine
Best part of meal is the free tasty creamy mushroom soup!
Service was great. Very friendly & helpful.

Crispy rosu katsu, warm rice, endless shredded cabbage… & one of those lunches that disappears too fast. Between conversations about American politics, immortality, & the next trip waiting somewhere out there, the pork stayed crispy & the world somehow felt both heavier & lighter at the same time. #Hoshi #Montreal
