Les critiques décrivent Hoshi comme un petit endroit chaleureux dans le quartier chinois qui sert une cuisine japonaise authentique avec des portions généreuses, en mettant en avant les plats katsu comme le rosu katsu curry et le don de katsu, ainsi que l'udon et le tempura, le tout à des prix raisonnables et avec un service amical et attentif. La plupart des plats sont loués pour leurs saveurs, leur croûte croquante et le bon équilibre entre le riz et le curry, bien que certains morceaux puissent être un peu secs au milieu ou le dessous soit un peu mou sous le riz et la place est limitée avec des files d'attente lors des heures d'affluence; néanmoins, l'impression générale est que Hoshi est un joyau caché et une adresse à refaire.
Not particularly good or bad service. Wait time outside at the door, would think a reservation list or system would be better as there's no covering outside. Hope to see them implement something like that in the future.
We both ordered two different types of katsu & both were dry & tough. Completely overcooked. Flavor was a bland, granted you are given seasonings like salt, sauce etc... but katsu itself has no flavor.
Both our plates & sauce cup had chips in it.
Soup they served seemed to be the instant cream vegetable one from Korean grocery store.
Overall, it's not very good. I've had much better katsu at food court. They should switch to donkatsu. Less easy to mess up & you can tenderize the meat.
Pedimos dos katsu curry. La comida espectacular!!!! Cantidad justa para disfrutarlo sin salir incómodo. El personal muy amable. 100% recomendable. Volvería sin pensarlo!

Great restaurant to discover the japanese dish KATSU. My overall experience was very positive. Great food, great services & very motivated staffs. I always recommend this restaurant.
Food was great! Friendly staff & reasonable prices.
We ordered the the spicy salmon salad, rosu katsu udon & the curry katsu don
The katsu was very good & flavourful, some pieces were slightly tough, but for the most part very tasty & tender, & the curry sauce is great. Salad is very refreshing.
Would definitely come back!

Came here for dinner on a Sunday evening around 6pm, the restaurant itself is quite small with around 5-6 tables inside. Atmosphere was very quiet but it was comfortable.
Ordered the Sake Salmon Son & the Rosu Katsu Curry. The sake Salmon Don came with pre-seasoned salmon sashimi on a bowl of rice, topped with an onsen egg, scoop of avocado & a sheet of toasted Nori. The flavors blended well, salmon wasn't overly salty & was very creamy with the onsen egg yolk. Rice was well seasoned & had great texture, overall very decent dish. The Katsu Curry was excellent, the Katsu had great flavor & was crispy on the outside but the bottom did get a little soggy due to being on the rice & curry ( I didn't mind). The curry itself was not too salty & paired well with the rest of the dish. The Katsu pieces are quite thick so some of the middle bites might seem on the drier side but ultimately pairs very well with the curry.
Was also served a small complimentary cup of creamy chicken & mushroom soup which were good, nothing too crazy but the server was nice.
Overall excellent place for Katsu, & at decent prices & portions.
Small resto but cute, more on the edge of Chinatown. Good Japanese food though the mushroom soup they give (included) & miso soup were way too salty.
They were out of hire at 7pm so we got the rosu katsu quite filling. The menu is rather simple & variations with soup or udon miso soup or rice or udon curry. Meat was juicy crispy tender & flavorful. Prices & portions are good! Also had the salmon tartare entrée on a bed of avocado, tasted great.
One waitress/host managed the few tables. She was really nice & courteous
Such amazing experience with my friend ! She just bring me to there~ & I can't imagine the katsu was so delicious! So juicy ! I love it ! & the service also really nice !

The crispy katsu is out of this world!! The salmon is also thick & delicous! Staff is friendly & I plan to come multiple times to try everything in their menu!
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. 🍛✨
