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.

Good sushi is very very difficult to find in Montreal, but this place is definitely the exception. $22 for three prices of high quality toro, now that's unbelievable! Great prices for what they offer, & great service. Can't wait to try the other items on the list

We enjoyed our experience here. Food was authentic, fresh & tasty. Service was great. We also enjoyed the atmosphere, though we found the speakers a bit too loud to have a conversation in such a small place. Overall we recommand this place if you're looking for an authentic japanese restaurant !

A truly authentic Japanese experience in the heart of Plateau. Having been to Japan, we were pleasantly surprised by the food. The menu is not extensive with rotating dishes of the day. The staff is extremely friendly!
