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!
Went there last Saturday for dinner. It was the most delicious udon I've ever had. The waitresses were all so nice too. By the way, I sat right in front of the door, so it was kind of cold. But it was amazing in general!!
So nice, the food was great, & the service by the waitresses was amazing. Thanks to Yu Jin for her kindness & hospitality, we'll come back for sure !
Went there for dinner.The waitresses were SUPER nice. The food was amazing. Definitely would recommend!!!!!
Sushi, kimchi, & rice were not fresh at all ! Waiter ASKS for tipping which must be something the customer desires. Beautiful & clean atmosphere, fast service (not very special but satisfying), clear instructions. The beer was enjoyably cold.
