Le Kyo Bar Japonais offre une ambiance vivante et chic dans le Vieux-Montréal, où des plats japonais authentiques et frais sont servis avec soin et présentation soignée. Le menu propose un large éventail de sushis et sashimis, accompagnés de plats à partager tels que gyoza wagyu, takoyaki et udon, et des menus dégustation appréciés. Le service est largement salué pour sa gentillesse et sa connaissance du menu, avec des conseils sur les accords et la gestion des allergies. Bien que certains trouvent les prix élevés et l'endroit assez animé, l'expérience globale est décrite comme mémorable et idéale pour une occasion spéciale ou une sortie entre amis, avec réservation recommandée les soirs bien fréquentés.
Honestly, this was a disappointing experience. Given the prices, the quality felt underwhelming at best.
We ordered the Gyuyaki (miso), which arrived cold & chewy, with nothing particularly memorable about it. We also went for the chef's choice sashimi & maki. When you order something labeled'chef's choice,' you expect it to showcase the restaurant's strengths, both in flavor & creativity. Unfortunately, neither stood out. It lacked not only originality but also depth in taste.
As someone who genuinely loves sushi & has tried everything from high-end omakase to more casual spots, I can confidently say I've had better experiences at places that cost significantly less.
The only dish I truly enjoyed was the mushroom skewers, which were flavorful & well-prepared.
Service was another letdown. From the beginning, the waiter came across as unfriendly & slightly condescending. There was little effort to be helpful or welcoming, & the way the tip was brought up felt awkward & far from subtle.
Overall, it feels like the restaurant has declined since the menu change. Not only were some great items removed, but the overall quality seems to have dropped as well. At this price point, it simply isn't worth it anymore.
The only aspect that still holds up is the ambiance.
I had the Gourmand special & thoroughly enjoyed it. A prix fixe meal, it included an appetizer, soup, & two mains (one grilled entree & one sashimi/sushi entree). The food was superb, flavourful, & while not an overly large amount of food, it was very satisfying. The menu had an extensive selection of standard izakaya entrees as well as sashimi/sushi offerings.
The service was attentive, the staff were friendly, & the food came promptly but not too soon. Overall, I found no fault with reservation. I would strongly recommend a reservation though as the place really filled fast after about 7:00 PM.

We went for Valentine's Day & it was absolutely wonderful.
We chose the Valentine's tasting menu & every single course was beautifully presented & full of flavor. From the oysters & sashimi to the perfectly cooked lamb & the heart-shaped dessert, everything felt thoughtfully curated for the occasion. The presentation was stunning, elegant, artistic, & romantic, truly worthy of a special night.
The ambiance was warm & intimate, & the little details (like the rose on the table) made the evening feel even more special. The service was attentive & professional without being intrusive, which made the experience smooth & enjoyable.
It was the perfect place to celebrate Valentine's Day. We left impressed & will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend for a date night or any special occasion.
Enjoyed a great dining experience at Kyo. Really happy with our choice to come here & try a variety of dishes & drinks. Every bite was excellent, great quality beef & the fish/sashimi were the star of the night. Worth the price for our special occasion.
Excellente expérience au restaurant Kyo ! La cuisine était sublime. Nous avons pris le menu dégustation à 120 $ - conseil : ne mangez rien avant, c'est très copieux. Les sushis & sashimis étaient délicieux, tout comme les dumplings dans leur sauce, les crevettes au caviar, la morue noire qui fond dans la bouche & le dernier plat (boeuf braisé avec queue de homard & légumes). C'était excellent, mais nous n'avions plus de place… nous avons même pris le dessert pour emporter !
Merci à Julien, notre serveur, pour son service attentionné & sympathique. Je recommande sans hésiter.
Nao se trata de restaurante japonês raiz, somente o sashimi valeu a pena, o karaague de frango parece um teriyaki ou entao um frango xadrez, parece mais tempero chinês do que japonês. O Bento de salmao estava apimentado e com molho chines tambem, o bento de carne parecia um bife frito e cortado com um molho agridoce. No geral o ambiente ate bom mas nao se pode chamar de restaurante japones. E ainda por cima é muito caro, saiu quase CND 300 para três pessoas.
Nice experience at Kyo. Had dinner & tried a few different dishes. Sashimi was fresh, the rolls were creative. Agedashi tofu was a little too oily but still good. Our waiter was nice & professional.

Service excellent!
Menu degustation délicieux! On a moins aimé la morue mais le reste était 5 étoiles +++
Le sashimi wow !!! Frais & fondant en bouche.
Dessert au matcha moyen à mon gout, mais je ne suis pas un fan de matcha à la base, mon invité elle a adoré le dessert & son mocktail au matcha.
Mon Mocktail à la mangue était aussi excellent.
On nous a rempli plusieurs fois notre verre d'eau. Assez rare de nos jours!
Réservation à 19h30 table prête pour 19h20 & nous avons pu passé la soirée au complet sans stress de devoir quitter pour un autre service.
Seul point négatif est le froid lorsque la portes extérieure ouvre mais 90% des resto ont ce problème en hiver à Montréal.
J'avais indiqué une table tranquille & ma demande a été prise en compte.
Une petite erreur s'est glissée dans la facture mais a été immédiatement corrigée. En plus, suite à notre commentaire sur la morue, le serveur l'a enlevé de la facture. J'apprécie vraiment le geste & je reviendrai !!
Kyo bar never disappoints! My partner & I always come here to celebrate our anniversary because the food, service & atmosphere are always incredible. The sashimi & pork belly are to die for!
The servers were so attentive & kind despite the restaurant being completely packed.
Get the black cod fish! Twas a highlight. That sauce used today was also really good, portions very reasonable to price, honestly just tasted great especially with the mushrooms & whatever else that was positively going on there 5/5
Chicken skewer were nice, tender
Service was great by the team special thanks to our waitress Anika (hope I remembered the name right sorry if my memory does not serve me well!) August 21 2025 9pm
Staff knows their menu very well
& are very patient & kind
Reasonable portions for the sashimi was somewhat solid at best, but Ive had better. Id rather go elsewhere for my sashimi fix.
though there were one or two pieces I had that was way too mushy textured not sure why but not to my liking, not sure if it was the type of fish or something else
Ambiance was very good
Ill be back , mainly for when I am craving black cod thank you

Élisabeth was very delightful & was very helpful for choosing our menu & wine pairing. We had the wagyu gyoza, the rainbow & the beef & maguiro tatakis, plus some sashimis. All very tasteful
Food takes forever to be served. Quality & service are alright, nothing special. Ordered 20 pieces sashimi for $90 but wasn't fresh enough compared to its price.
This is a proper, somewhat fancy Japanese restaurant with excellent sashimi/sushi. I also enjoyed their shrimp tempura & beef gyoza - all excellent! Their coffee & tea were perfect, as well as desserts.

I like this izakaya very much. The ingredients are very fresh & prepared with care. I especially recommend the tataki maguro, which has a rich texture & unique taste. The sashimi & sushi rolls are also very good. The waiter was very busy during the weekend dinner, but this did not affect the high quality of service. The food portions were not very generous, & we had to order a second round. Overall, it is a 5-star experience.
Great service, shiitake mushrooms were my favorite dish of the meal. Sashimi were very thick pieces & delicious. Had a very nice Nikka whiskey as well.
We went for the Christmas menu. It was $95 for 6 courses: the best I've had as far as holiday menus go. The food was overall pretty good - the oyster, sashimi, maki, & sirloin were mouthwatering, but the sides of the main dishes (4th & 5th) were too heavy yet took up half the plate. The server took the time to explain each dish. The portions were so generous that I couldn't even finish the last 2 courses! Service was very friendly. They ensured we were having a good time without being overbearing. We will be back to try the regular menu for sure.
