Review Summary

Katsuya is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for authentic, high-quality Japanese comfort food, particularly its signature crispy and tender katsu. Many patrons praise the generous portion sizes, fresh ingredients, and creative menu variations, such as the popular red carbonara and cheese katsu dishes. While the atmosphere is generally described as cozy and modern, and the staff is frequently highlighted for being friendly and attentive, some diners have noted occasional inconsistencies with service speed and wait times during busy periods. Despite a few mixed opinions on specific side dishes and the internal ambiance, the majority of visitors consider the restaurant a reliable and delicious spot that offers excellent value for the price.

Le katsu est croustillant & la sauce délicieuse !!!

I went on two occasions: first time I had a Japanese katsu, second time I had the sweet chili katsu. I loved the cutlets for its crunch & flavor. However, for both times, the coleslaw was hard & tasted bland. St-Hubert coleslaw is way better. I would recommend getting dishes that don't have coleslaw. On the bright side, I loved the honey fries, crunchy & lightly powdered with the right amount of sugar~

Portions are super generous! Pork loin was surprisingly juicy. Even after reheating (takeout), it was not too dry. Pretty good if you're craving for katsu. Not the best, but not bad. Would recommend!

If you are looking for authentic Japanese tonkatsu in Montreal, Katsuya is one of the few places that actually gets the crust right. It is crispy & fluffy rather than being dense & hard, & most importantly, it isn't greasy at all. My only minor complaint is that the breading tends to fall off the meat quite easily. The pork itself is okay-not dry, but not particularly juicy either.
The service is very friendly, which makes up for the atmosphere. The interior is a bit dark & feels a little run-down, so it's not exactly'cozy,' but for the decent price point, it's worth it. I will definitely be coming back!

So delicious. Got the regular udon & it was filling. No pork in this one. They give out small soups as appetizers too, similar to a miso soup.

Parfait endroit pour manger du poulet katsu ! Nous avons adoré nos plats & le service était impeccable. On y sert aussi de la bière. Nous allons y retourner!
