Hoshi est un restaurant japonais chaleureux et très apprécié, situé dans le quartier chinois de Montréal, reconnu pour ses plats authentiques, notamment son katsu de porc croustillant et juteux, ses currys savoureux et ses portions généreuses. De nombreux convives apprécient le service amical et attentionné ainsi que l'atmosphère accueillante qui rappelle le Japon, soulignant souvent la soupe crémeuse aux champignons offerte en accompagnement. Bien que la qualité de la nourriture et le rapport qualité-prix fassent l'objet d'éloges unanimes, le restaurant est assez petit et dispose de places limitées, ce qui entraîne fréquemment des files d'attente. Malgré quelques critiques occasionnelles concernant le volume de la musique ou la préparation inégale de certains plats, le consensus général est que ce joyau caché vaut largement le détour pour quiconque recherche une cuisine japonaise réconfortante et délicieuse.
Our experience this time fell a little short of what we had read in the reviews, though we hope it was just an off day. The service was genuinely friendly & hospitable, & the portions were generous - the complimentary cream of mushroom soup was also a nice touch. We ordered the Teppan Hamburger Steak & the Katsu Curry Udon, but both dishes came out too heavily seasoned for our taste. The miso soup on the side was similarly over-seasoned, with the anchovy notes from the dashi stock overpowering the other components. My partner also got a stomachache after the katsu curry udon, which may have been a one-off, but it added to an overall mediocre experience unfortunately. We've had better katsu & Japanese steak elsewhere.
The place can be pretty small so if it's a busy, prepare for a time to wait, & it's a bit congested, but that aside the food is really really good & has generous portions!
A very cozy, homestyle Japanese restaurant located right inside Chinatown!
I ordered the Udon Hoshi Katsu & really appreciated how generous they are with the crispy cod katsu & scallop katsu.
However, I'm not entirely sure how well the guacamole pairs with the udon. I also wish they would serve the fried fish & scallop on the side, as the steam from the hot udon tends to soften the crispy crust of the katsu.
If they are going for a fusion angle, a citrus & rice pairing might work a bit better here rather than mixing it with the heavy katsu sauce.
That being said, it's a lovely spot & I'd definitely say come out to support this small business! I really hope to see them refine the dish & improve over time.

Good enough.
Hoshi is a good enough Katsu for a reasonable price. Served with good rice & generous cabbage. Came with a soup too. I enjoyed it. I'll go again.
The facade is a little busted up. Don't let that scare you from coming in!
Discovered Hoshi in Montreal's Chinatown & wow - what a hidden gem! I had the rosu katsu curry (rice, pork cutlet, & Japanese curry), & honestly, it exceeded my expectations. The portions were generous, & it was so fulfilling - it filled both my stomach (& my heart)!🥹 The pork was perfectly crispy : light, not too greasy + the balance between the rice, pork, & curry was just perfect. The curry itself was rich, comforting, & full of flavor. The service was wonderful too - everyone was kind, friendly, & smiley, which made the whole experience even better. It was my first time here, but definitely not my last. ☺? Worth every cent, & I can't recommend it enough! This is officially one of my new favorite spots to visit whenever I'm in Montreal. 🍛✨
An excellent place with delicious food, beautiful presentation, & great value for money. The fish was very fresh & generously portioned in relation to the side dish on my plate. The place is clean, & the staff is friendly - I sincerely recommend it :)
