Review Summary

Kitano Shokudo is a highly regarded, intimate destination in Montreal known for its authentic Japanese fusion menu and cozy, minimalist atmosphere. Patrons frequently praise the exceptional quality of the fresh sashimi, duck mazemen, and uni carbonara, often highlighting the thoughtful presentation and vibrant flavors of each dish. While the operation is run by a small team, resulting in occasional wait times, many guests find the personalized service and attention to detail to be part of the restaurant's unique charm. Although some visitors note the higher price point and limited seating capacity, the consensus remains that the culinary experience and refined craftsmanship make it a standout choice for those seeking high-quality, carefully prepared Japanese cuisine.

Highly recommend! You might passed by a few times & missed it, the same as we did (part of its magic). But the moment we noticed it, we had to try. The first thing is that when you come in you smell, & the smell in this restaurant is so tasty.. that you can't wait to try ;) Everything was delicious & very fresh! ( make a reservation, the restaurant is quite small & gets really busy)

Delish! The duck confit was amazing. Chirashi was so good & so fresh. We walked right past the restaurant when looking for it. It's easy to miss. It's very homey & unassuming. Highly recommend the amazing food..

The food was definitely good & may be worth (or not) the premium you pay. The ingredients that were used were of the utmost quality but the portions are just way too small. I would have to think that spending 80$ per person (no alcohol) would allow you to at least walk out of there content & not going straight to the sandwich joint 2-3 corners further.

Ridiculously delicious. First, it is a small, intimate setting with such good energy & service. I was lucky to rest here without a reservation. I ordered the duck mazeman & it was like fried chicken with delicious dry noodles & ufff it was just so good. There was a waiter & a cook for the whole restaurant & they both did their thing! I had to tip above 20% Really really so so so so so good! Also, the music was good. Just really caring & cautious with the service. I can't recommend enough.
