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.
Wow le retour d'un bon Katsudon à mtl. Quand on retrouve la qualité à chaque visite on sait que c'est là pour rester. Encouragez ce petit spot vraiment bien! Update 5e visite. C'est mon nouveau resto Go to. Cette fois, J'ai essayé le bol d'unagi, & c'était succulent. Update 4e visite. Toujours on target. Maintenant avec bière Asahi en fut ❤️ Update 3e fois pour souper. Toujours aussi bon. Les boules de pieuvres étaient succulentes. Le oyakodon très bon & le spécial du mois au boeuf avec fromage aussi. Update 2e fois pour emporter: vraiment solide... vous voulez manger le Katsudon les chips de poulet & les gionza. ❤️❤️ 1 ère fois sur place : Petite place qui en vaut le détour. Le Katsudon & le Buta Don étaient excellent. J'y reviendrai & je te dit que l'essayer c'est l'adopter. Il y a un choix de saké de whisky japonais & de bières. Psst en passant il est possible de réserver P.S. Les propriétaires Éric & Charles sont vraiment sympathique.
Coming to LeDon is like hanging out at an old friends place! The staff are extremely nice & so passionate about their food, we always love coming back. Their specials & experimental hot sauces are always so fun to try.

Wow! Just wow! One of the best stops in Montreal to a warm Japanese food that scapes the obvious. GREAT STAFF! LIKE, 20/10 on service. I was a server for a very long time & can identify authentic & good customer service. These ppl are PASSIONATE! I ate so fast i forgot to take pics but good looks incredible too!
The food was so delicious & cozy. It was really affordable & the service was splendid ! It's definitely worth it & I recommend it. I recommend trying their matcha cocktail.
Petit resto de quartier offrant une cuisine japonaise réconfortante simple & délicieuse dans une ambiance cordiale. Service rapide & très sympathique. Une excellente adresse!
One of the best restaurants not just in Beaubien, but Montreal as a whole. The location is akin to a hole-in-the-wall narrow kitchen of magic, but it only adds to the authentic Japanese experience. The limited space & seatings helps with the intimate atmosphere & very responsive customer service (you are always in speaking distance of the waiters & cooks). What a gem.
