Review Summary

Japote is widely regarded as a hidden gem for affordable, authentic, and delicious Japanese comfort food, making it a popular lunch destination for students and professionals near McGill University. The menu, which features standouts like curry katsu and donburi bowls, is praised for its high flavor quality, reasonable pricing, and efficient, friendly service. While the restaurant is tucked away in an office building food court and maintains limited weekday hours, the quick-moving lines and customizable sauce options contribute to an overall positive experience. Visitors should note that the eatery is strictly cash only, and although portion sizes may be modest, the excellent value ensures that it remains a highly recommended spot for a satisfying and budget-friendly meal.

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!

Great value 👍 Got the curry katsudon & a drink for 10$. Cute spot to grab a quick & tasty lunch. Fast service despite the lineup, please remember to bring cash~
