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.

Our plate came with a fly on it… & the waitress & turned a blind eye. She looked like she didn't want to work or be there, not a single smile while she served us. The katsu don was a bit too salty meanwhile the curry udon was a bit bland. They also forgot some ingredients to our bowl & we had to recheck the menu & asked them for it..

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!

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

Excellent location, food comes fast & is very tasty. Had tempura udon, portions are large & all come with miso & cream of mushroom soup.
Won't make a mistake if you come here. Cheers

The food is absolutely amazing! I had lunch there two days in a row during my short trip to Montreal. Highly recommend the udon noodles there!

I ordered the Katsu udon (pork tenderloin) it was amazing. So tender & flavorful. I recommend this restaurant if you are craving for Katsu. It comes with a velouté & a miso soup!
