Kazu brille comme un izakaya authentique à Montréal, offrant des plats savoureux et soigneusement préparés avec une touche créative qui mêle techniques japonaises traditionnelles et influences occidentales; le menu propose des portions généreuses, un excellent rapport qualité-prix et des spécialités comme le katsu curry, avec une cuisine servie au bar que l'on peut admirer en action; l'ambiance est animée, chaleureuse et intime avec un personnel amical et attentif, mais des files d'attente persistent et les places assises sont limitées, surtout les soirs chargés, et certains commentaires signalent une certaine variabilité du service; globalement, il s'agit d'un des meilleurs spots japonais en ville et l'attente en vaut la peine pour beaucoup.
The food is amazing! The owner is such a nice guy. The staff are fairly attentive. Everyone is pleasant & helpful. Atmosphere isn't fine dining & right but not unpleasant. The food is the star. The owner is a master of sauces. The forked meats are sooooo good. Highly recommend
Went on a Saturday & we were there a bit earlier to beat the lineup. My friend & I ordered to share as entrée the scallop sashimi: delicious, simple yet full of flavor, the scallop melts in your mouth. Our second meal was the Salmon bowl salad. It was very good, you could tell by the taste how fresh the salmon is. For the main dish we ordered the grilled tuna steak. Everything on that plate was exquisite. Wrapped it up with the ice cream sake which surprisingly reminded me of home. I had a great experience, they serve quality & authentic food, it is a 10/10 for me.
Absolutely amazing! We tried the 48h pork, smoked duck, homemade tofu, salmon don, & the salmon & tuna bowl. Every single thing was fresh & delicious. The service was insanely fast but very chaotic. Tables are incredibly tight.
The food was very tasty & the waitress very kind & helpful. There might be a long line due to the few places available but it's definitely worth it! It's mostly a place where you will want to try multiple meals, as the quantities are not very large. The quality however is definitely there & it's one of the best quality/price ratio in Montreal. As a Frenchmen, I also believe that it's one of the few places where the tips are not expected but earned, & therefore deserved 😄
The dishes were full of flavours & delicious. The place was a little cramped though, I was impressed by how the servers were able to move around in tight places with the big dishes. There's always a line up in front of the restaurant, so prepare to wait for at least 30 minutes to an hour. The 48 hours pork powl was conforting, delicious & even yummier with the curry sauce on. The fresh marinaded salad was great. The fresh raw tuna & salmon sashimi on vinegar rice & a side of salad was to die for, but the beef short ribs was definitely the highlight of the evening, it tasted heavenly. Will definitely come back to try their others dishes.
Was lucky to be able to eat inside without the lineup. Food is delicious, service is attentive. I was surprised by the price of the dishes, seems a lot more reasonable than anywhere else. All the dishes are full of flavour & light. The place is super cramped though, I was amazed by how the servers were able to move around tight places to serve dishes. Have been to there several times over the years & it never disappoints. The small space is a real problem but everything else is over expectations. Order to take out would be the best
