LeDon Donburi feels like a tiny, cozy Japanese haven in the city, a hidden treasure where the atmosphere, food and staff often come together to create a homey and welcoming dining experience. The bowls are consistently flavorful and fresh, with generous portions and a variety of donburi, takoyaki, gyoza, korokke and karaage, plus seasonal items and a selection of well crafted cocktails and mocktails, with mentions of a dessert option and umeshu as a plus. Guests note quick, friendly service and attentive staff who accommodate allergies and make guests feel at ease; reservations are advised because of the limited seating, especially for date nights. The ambiance is described as intimate and authentic, with anime inspired decor and a vibe that transports diners toward Japan, making it a place to revisit with friends or loved ones. While a few reviews point to small portions or a tonkatsu that was not perfectly fluffy and sometimes busy crowds, the overall impression is of good value, consistent quality and a genuine passion from the team, encouraging repeat visits and recommendations.
Always a pleasure to chat with staff. Food is permanently good & they always have an experimental monthly dish. This is my where I go when I want to eat happy
This small & cozy Japanese spot is a hidden treasure within the city. The kind of discovery you dream of making on your travels. The ambiance, the food, the staff, everything perfectly aligns to create a magical experience that you & your loved ones will want to revisit time & time again.
Fantastic experience! The service was excellent, we really felt welcomed. The food was delicious & fresh. Cocktails were absolutely fantastic. We will definitely come back again soon!!!
Delicious food, great ambience, excellent service, & reasonably priced. I love their selection of cocktails & they have UMESHU!! Nice fusion flavours of Japan. It's not on the menu but do ask for their desserts, as they have refreshing desserts to eat. Recommended to come here on a date & make sure to RSVP in advanced as seats do fill out pretty quickly (resto is small, that's why I suggest tk RSVP in advanced). Me & my friend like eating here often that the owners & waiters know us! ♡
Petit endroit fort sympathique & chaleureux. Plats & cocktails délicieux & réconfortants. Qualité/prix intéressant. Personnel très gentil. J'ai passé un bon moment chez vous.
Such a wonderful dining experience! The staff were friendly & funny, & the bowls were so delicious & fresh. Got the katsudon & the gyudon & would definitely recommend. Also tried their PFK appetizer that's a seasonal item! It is a small space with limited seating, so be prepared to wait if you don't have a reservation.
Intimate, authentic, affordable, magnificent! Food is great, people are really kind, & this doesn't feel like the pretentious world's cuisine style, but yes a sincere tribute to Japanese culture.
J'y suis allé pour la première fois avec mon copain. Merveilleux, nous avons adoré. Le service est impeccable, le staff chaleureux & la nourriture délicieuse. Nous allons y retourner c'est sûr! ❤?🫶🏻

Pretty good food & the layout totally reminded me of an average restaurant in Tokyo.
The takoyaki was better than many I've had & the gyoza was exceptional.
where to start...the food was amazing. as someone from a predominantly east asian city (vancouver), i've been on the hunt for authentic japanese food in mtl & ledon surely takes the cake. we popped in for a late dinner around 830 & were sat immediately! we ordered the gyoza, korokke, katsudon, & karaage don. get the korokke. you cannot go wrong with anything on the menu though!! on top of the delish food, our server, alex, was hilarious & so attentive - a downright delight. i can't believe we hadn't tried this place earlier. time to make up for lost time now hehehe
