Hoshi est décrit comme un petit restaurant japonais authentique et chaleureux, situé sur le bord de Chinatown, avec une ambiance qui rappelle le Japon. Les plats phares, notamment le katsu don, le rosu katsu et le curry katsu, ainsi que le tempura don et l'udon, affichent des sauces savoureuses, des textures croustillantes et des portions généreuses à des prix raisonnables. La carte est appréciée pour sa simplicité et la qualité des ingrédients, et même ce qui n'est pas leur spécialité est bien cuisiné. La salle est petite et les places limitées, ce qui entraîne parfois une attente, mais le service est généralement attentif et convivial, avec des serveurs et serveuses décrits comme sympathiques et efficaces. Les soupes en début de repas, notamment la soupe miso et la soupe à la crème de champignon, complètent le repas, parfois avec des remarques sur leur sel ou leur température. Des critiques positives soulignent le côté authentique, les saveurs japonaises et le caractère "gemme" de l'endroit, et beaucoup recommandent de revenir pour découvrir d'autres plats. Quelques avis mentionnent des expériences variables sur le service en période de pointe et des petites réserves sur certaines textures ou sur l'assaisonnement de certaines assiettes. Dans l'ensemble, Hoshi est vu comme une adresse de choix pour les amoureux du katsu et de la cuisine japonaise à Montréal, offrant des portions copieuses, une ambiance intime et un rapport qualité-prix attractif.
Un joyau quelque peu caché dans le quartier chinois. Les plats étaient excellents & les portions étaient plutôt généreuses. Le service était impeccable. Nous avons tous adoré notre expérience & y retourneront certainement.
Came here for dinner & It was busy but we luckily got seated right away I got the Shrimp Udon Soup & it was bursting with so much flavor, the udon was perfectly cooked, & all of the toppings were so delicious. Staff is also super friendly & although its small I loved the overall vibe of the restaurant :) I liked the soup so much that I went back the next day but this time right when they opened! Staff was again very friendly, attentive, & the soup was just as good as the day before! I truly enioyed both of my visits & cant wait to come back again!
Hoshi was an okay experience. My partner & I came after seeing an ad on Instagram. We started off with complimentary mushoom soup that was a great way to beat the cold. I ordered the Katsu-don, & my partner got the katsu. The katsu were as thick as the pictures showed. It was crunchy & maybe a bit overdone as it was slightly chewy. I personally would've liked the cuts to be thinner if anything because I value the crunchy outside. The egg didn't seem to be seasoned, maybe intentionally, but the sauce with the rice was really good. My partner's comments were that he also found the katsu to be a bit tough & would've liked more of the seasoning on the side. There was also a lot of salad. Overall, this is a cute hole in the wall Japanese restaurant that really tries to give authentic Japanese food. Personally, I don't see myself coming here too often, but it was good.

If you're in the mood for japanese food that isn't ramen, this is the place to go!! The service is great & accommodating & the food was delious & high quality. Will be coming back to try more from their menu.
In my opinion the best hidden gem I have encountered in Montreal, I would highly recommend Hoshi to anyone who wants great food, friendly service & something different.
Great, well-priced food. Might be the best katsu I ate in mtl. Issue with the door not closing which made the place colder - hopefully it's fixed. Not worth dinging a star over it
I dont usually leave reviews, but this is the best katsu I had in Montreal hands down. This place is new but they definitely know how to make good Japanese cuisine. Great service as well. Would definitely come again!!!
