Nice place! I don't think I ordered the right things, because the cooked salmon I got was not my favourite. Seems like a really busy place so will go back & try some other menu items.
After 6 years, it's still Kazu that tastes the best for its price range. The atmosphere suits seasoned foodies. I order some appetizers & mains. The dishes come quickly & are served one after another, very suitable for two people to share.
Price-wise, with tax & tip, it came to $160 for two people, & even for two people who worked out, it was a bit too much food.
We ordered:
• Fried green beans ($12) - generous portion & delicious.
• Sashimi platter ($28) - tasty, but a bit small; just enough to get a taste.
• Lamb chops ($27) - very good, portion was on the smaller side.
• Pork shoulder ($27) - tasty & very large portion, but the center part of the meat was a bit dry.
• Squid salad ($16) - delicious, moderate portion.
• Beef heart ($12) - tasty, portion slightly small.
Overall, it was a very satisfying experience. The flavors were complex & high-end. The pace was fast, & the staff were warm, friendly, & eager to recommend dishes & drinks. At the bar there are hooks for bags under the table which is super convenient. We arrived at 5pm & didn't have to wait, but by the time we left at 6pm, a long line had already formed.
The place is really small with very limited seating, so even though the restaurant opens at 5:00, there's already a lineup outside. Usually when you see a long line, you expect the food to be amazing, right? But honestly, I didn't really get the hype (especially after seeing it all over TikTok). We ordered the Japanese curry & the grilled meat as an entrée, & after waiting more than 30 minutes, the food was just… okay. Pretty mid for me.
The atmosphere is very Japanese, & it's cool that you can sit at the counter & watch the chefs cook right in front of you. That part was a nice experience. But overall? I don't really understand the hype.
I first thought this place was a little overrated but then I went again & loved it! My first time I ordered off the menu, however my second time I ordered mostly off the many options found on the wall & it was way better. The salmon bowl, potatoes & gravy & the ice cream were amazing!
Best of the best in Montreal. Go there at 4:30pm if you don't want to wait too long in line.
The best Isakaya in town. Don't look anywhere else. No reservation, always a line-up but it is worth waiting & it goes fast anyway. The food is incredible. I've been coming for 15 years & it's my go to favorite place on earth ❤?
The food was out of this world! Everything was really good. The place is bit tight but the food makes it super worth it :) also take a picture of the specials on the wall. I recommend getting there early, we arrived at 5:10 & we got the last table, the place was packed (they open at 5:00)
food is incredible, staff is incredibly nice & attentive, really great experience overall! i understand why there was a line out the doo
Best Japa ever had. Salmon bowl huge. Tofu with kimchi sauce was extraordinary. Friendly & super smiley staff, great location
10* /5 :)
Always the best taste & dish presentation! We recommand cod dish & morue head ! The cod filet skin-on ( for me is an excellent choice to keep skin-on ) was incredible soft velvety, juisy texture, right cooking time....a dream. The grilled morue head also very juicy very far from dry, excellent size, sauce amazing, variety of salads. Excellent restaurant & no 1 in our hearts! Helpful, fast waitress. Unforgettable.
Bon plats à bon prix, atmosphère peu agréable. Je recommanderais plus du take out parce que c'est un resto relativement rapide, donc je n'irais plus là pour m'assoir & prendre mon temps. Nous avons attendu 1h pour une table. Nous ne savions pas non plus que nous pouvions commander les plats affichés sur les murs (ressemblent à des dessins d'enfants)… Nous aurions aimé savoir, car il y a une belle diversité. Bref, c'était correct sans plus.
Best restaurant in town without spending an arm & a leg. Service is incredible. They are fast, competent & really nice. Kazu is the guy with the yellow shirt in the kitchen, extremely nice guy. I recommend you sit in front of the kitchen. Its such a vibe eating & watching them cook. Its well worth the queue. If you don't want to wait, try to arrive 15 to 20 mins before they open.
This place is 100% worth the wait! I had heard a lot of good things about this restaurant before trying it last week & it was definitely worth the hype. We went on a Friday at around 8:30 & got seated about an hour later. They gave us the menu while we were in line so we could be prepared to order right as we were seated. I started with the Yuzu cocktail & the egg drop soup which was very good. For an appetizer we had the chicken dumplings & the chicken skewers, also delicious! As a main course I had the beef short ribs & I would recommend those as well! The serving sizes were great for the price. Service was very fast too which makes up for the wait imo! Next time I will for sure try things on their menu on the wall. Great overall restuarant I will be going back!
All of them were super good! Luckily we only waited around 10mins comparing to the general lines I saw before. Just go & try!
