Went there for the first time today, loved it!! The staff is super nice too!
Edit: went back there many, many times during my undergrad. Absolutely delicious, nice staff & good prices (bring cash though!). Hands down my favorite place to eat lunch near McGill U, they have made so many of my lunches without ever disappointing. I may have graduated since, but I will definitely go back when I'm around. Thank you!View more

Difficile à trouver, mais la file indique que c'est apprécié.
Les portions sont toutefois très petites. J'aurais aimé qu'on me suggère d'ajouter des légumes à mon plat pour compléter (ce qui aurait sans doute augmenté ma facture à un prix encore raisonnable). Je n'ai eu qu'un peu de poulet sur du riz collant - plutôt bon, mais j'avais faim 3 heures plus tard.
Photo = grande portion.
Argent comptant seulement, ce qui explique probablement le coût raisonnable de 10$ avec taxes payé aujourd'hui.View more

Good food, moderate portion but with that price, it's unbeatable!
Highly recommended!View more

Un peu décevant! J'ai pris le #10 large & il y avait trop peu de poulet. J'aimerais payé un peu plus & être rassasié.. Bon goût!View more

Wow wow wow! Friendly staff, quick service & delicious food for cheap! This place is a beautiful hidden gem. I recommend the oyakodon, & don't forget to bring cash. Also, I recommend that you come early to avoid the line of hungry students :)View more

find the escalators & head down twice, following the signs will bring you to this downtown gem!!! they only take CASH so please come prepared as their opening window is quite small! the pricing is not something you see often, it's affordable, realistic & absolutely a bang for your buck! I'll definitely be coming back!!View more

Extremely affordable & delicious simple Japanese lunch fare. Very friendly & happy staff slinging succulent staples. Clearly the all-star of the basement food court it is located in. As a large & hungry man, I always shell out the extra $1 or $2 for a "large" portion so that I never leave hungry. Make sure to add the complimentary sauces & tsukemono (pickles). I can't wait to return again & again to the smiling staff & tasty hot lunch. They offer a rewards card too, further increasing the already great value that this establishment offers.View more

I've been wanting to try Japote for a while after a friend recommended it but due to its opening hours it was really tough. I went at 11:30 & it was really busy. The food is really good & so are the prices. I got 2 plates because I knew it would be tough to come again so I took the opportunity to try multiple things. It's much cheaper when you order only one plate. They only accept cash. Even though the line was long, it moved quickly, the food & service were very good!View more
