Les avis sur Katsuya soulignent des portions généreuses et un rapport qualité-prix attractif, un katsu croustillant et juteux accompagné de sauces variées (curry, rose, mayo teriyaki, fromage) et des plats qui vont du porc ou poulet katsu à des options plus créatives, sans oublier les accompagnements comme le takoyaki, l'udon et la soupe miso refaillable. La carte est abondante et les saveurs bien équilibrées, avec des desserts et des boissons maison souvent appréciés, et le service généralement chaleureux dans une ambiance cosy et pratique, notamment près du métro. Beaucoup considèrent Katsuya comme l'un des meilleurs spots de katsu à Montréal et apprécient les portions généreuses qui peuvent suffire à partager. Certaines critiques pointent des plats gras ou huileux, des sauces parfois trop sucrées ou acides et des temps d'attente plus longs lorsque le service est débordé; malgré ces bémols, l'expérience globale est jugée satisfaisante, le katsu lui-même de haute qualité et les accompagnements et soupes au rendez-vous, incitant souvent à revenir.
The atmosphere was really nice. Since it was my first visit, I was a bit confused but the staff were friendly & explained everything well, which I really appreciated. The curry katsu & the japanese katsu were both crispy & delicious & they pair perfectly with the house lemonade. If you're looking for a Japanese style katsu restaurant, I think this place would be my number one. It also seems like the only truly authentic Japanese katsu spot in Montreal.

Menu is a bit of a hit or miss… I did like my pork curry, but my friends didn't enjoy their original & Japanese chicken ones. The appetizers - honey fries, shrimps & karaage - were very underwhelming. Portion sizes were good.
Wanted to try Katsu & this establishment was recommended by my sister in law.
There's lots I different meals to choose from. A few appetizers also available. We had the snow cheese balls(3) for an appetizer, which is breaded crab meat with cheese. The main meals were Sweet Chilli Katsu & a Pork Curry Katsu.
Both came with shredded lettuce & rice & were of decent portions. The whole meal was good!
Decent sized dining area, probably about 80 seats. Clean & very relaxing atmosphere. Service was very good! They accept cash & major credit cards. No dedicated parking so parking on the street could be a challenge.
Overall a very good supper experience. Would recommend.
The pork Katsu with curry was delicious. Also, the serving of pork is generous, & the meat is so tender. I wish they'd serve it with something other than raw cabbage, but that seems to be the standard way it's served at any katsudon place. They should serve it with tempura vegetables. That being said, as far as shredded, raw cabbage salads go, it was okay - they seasoned it with a light dressing which tasted good, but I'd take a coleslaw over it any day. My other gripe is that they don't provide enough curry (sauce) to go with the meat & rice. Curry is not expensive, so there should be a good amount of it to go with the other elements on the plate - otherwise you're kind of serving an incomplete dish. Thankfully the pork itself was so good, I could look past the shortcomings. Our waitress was attentive & very friendly.
Great food, exactly was expected. I've never been to Japan but the Curry Katsu sauce was better than I imagined. The Takoyakis as an entry are a MUST. Crispy & beautiful presentation. Totally would go back
Katsuya offers a pleasant dining experience with friendly service & generous meal portions. The atmosphere is comfortable, & it's easy to enjoy a meal here without feeling rushed.
The Chicken Katsu with Curry Sauce was very flaky & light, with a satisfying crunch & a big portion. The curry sauce was typical Japanese-style curry. It is solid, though nothing extraordinary.
The Pork & Cheese Katsu with Rosée Sauce was crispy & light as well. The rosée sauce had a salty kick, & the combination with pork & cheese was unique & interesting. Definitely worth trying if you like creative twists.
The salad came with a smoky, light dressing that was surprisingly good. The takoyaki was crunchy, which is different from the usual soft, mushy style. The sweet sauce combined with the crunch felt a bit overwhelming after a while, but it's an interesting variation.
Overall, the katsu is excellent & the generous portions make it a satisfying meal. Highly recommend giving Katsuya a try for delicious katsu with some creative twists.
Big portion but it was my first actual meal at 5 PM so I had it in one go lol, but it can actually be shared with two people. Very good katsu! Had chicken curry. Even the breading was so good.
Only downside is pricing for one person (1 katsu with rice plus half of the cheese balls was already $30).
Ordered two chicken Katsu's, one curry & one Rose. Both very different & delicious. Current was flavourful with onions in the curry while the Rose had shrimp & bacon in the creamy & lightly spiced sauce. Food was plentiful & delicious. Would visit again when in Montreal, great meal
Atmosphere is okay kimd of depressing but he music was always good, I got the chicken curry katsuya. It was well spiced. The portion or rice was on the smaller end. However, surprisingly, it filled me up a well-made meal. It tasted basic & nor acidic & the food was great would recommend giving it a try. The service was well. The workers seemed tired but it is to be expected before after the long winter break.
Un excellent service, rien à redire, par contre si vous n'êtes pas fan de panure & de gras je ne conseille pas. Très lourd pour l'estomac, mais leur tonkatsu est assez bon! J'ai adorer celui au Curry!! Je recommande leur frite aussi, vraiment excellente!! Pour l'ambiance, par contre, je trouve trop bruyant, dure de s'entendre!
My partner & I ate here on Friday August 9th around 4PM. This is a small restaurant conveniently located steps away from the Guy Concordia/St Mathieu exit of the metro. It's close to the university & many other great asian restaurants. Decor is modern, clean. Recently renovated as it opened in June of 2024. I heard about it through social media, they have other chains throughout Canada & the videos I saw all featured beautifully presented, generous portions of fried pork, chicken, fish or cheese drizzles in sauces & curries. My experience was just as advsertised, & delicious! Since we dined early, the restaurant was pretty empty. We were seated right away, offered a jug of cold water & showed how to retrieve the menu. They do not serve a printed menu, you will need to scan a QR code at the table to open up a PDF menu. This is easily accesible on their website as well. The specialty is fried chicken, pork cutlets, fish or cheese deep fried in a light breading & coated with a curry or teriyaki, mayo style sauce. There are different types of curries & sauces to choose from, including carbonara which is an original idea. The dishes are served with a small soup, white rice & pickled slaw/vegetables. We ordered an appetizer of the "snow cheese balls" which are deep fried mozzarella balls covered in a sweet honey type powder. Our main meals were the chicken katsu with carbonara & the pork katsu with original curry. The portions were generous, enough to share, & flavors were amazing. Meats were super tender, the curries were mild, not spicy & the breading on the meats were krispy, cooked perfectly. There's a lot I'd love to try, highly recommend coming with more people if you want to order more food & share. Service was friendly, food was speedy & everything was tasty. Must try!
The portion is HUGE, well worth the 20$ price. This shop specializes in fried cutlets (katsu) : you can choose the type of meat you want (chicken, pork, fish) or vegetarian (cheese or sweet potato & cheese) & also the sauce that you want. They have several options to choose from. I tried the curry one & my friend got the sweet chili supreme. Both were nicely fried & sauces were good. Earlier in the month, I tried more stuff from the menu & the quality was maintained. Get the fried cheeseballs & the yuzu highball. Overall, a good place for lunch, for takeout or just a easy supper.
First time trying & my friends & I absolutely loved it! As appetizers we had the cheese balls & the honey fries. The fries were so crispy & flavorful. The texture of the cheese balls was out of this world. We got the original, the curry & the spicy one. All of them were so good. Especially the spicy one, please get it with the sweet potato cheese katsu; the best combo. & a plus, servers were so nice.
