Les avis convergent pour présenter Matcha Zanmai comme une adresse où le matcha est authentique et les desserts riches en saveur, avec une attention particulière portée à la qualité du thé et à la texture des glaces et des mochis. Les desserts phares tels que le matcha ice cream, le soft serve, les parfaits, la tartelette yuzu, le tiramisu hojicha ou les mochis sont fréquemment cités comme des incontournables. Plusieurs commentaires louent l accueil chaleureux et le service rapide, même en période d affluence. À l inverse, certains notent des inconvénients comme un espace intérieur très petit avec peu de places assises et des files qui peuvent être longues, un prix élevé et des boissons qui peuvent être jugées trop sucrées ou peu fortes selon les goûts. Dans l ensemble, Matcha Zanmai est vu comme une étape incontournable pour les amateurs de matcha à Montréal, offrant une gamme variée de boissons et de douceurs qui reflètent l art du matcha et séduisent par leur authenticité. Pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience plus calme, il peut être préférable de venir hors heures de pointe.
The cashier was really nice & welcoming! It was my first time there & she suggested I try the parfait mix matcha/vanilla ice cream & it was delicious! It wasn't too sweet or bitter, perfect balance. & I love that there were different toppings & textures.
Our first time here & we loved it! The matcha is delicious. My boyfriend isn't usually a fan of matcha, but he absolutely loved the ice cream-it wasn't too sweet, which was perfect. I ordered the matcha brownie & it was amazing: soft, flavorful, & the texture was spot on. Highly recommended, especially if you're a matcha lover!

The place is small but everything looks really good. The matcha mochi is soft & really good as well as matcha soft ice cream & the Zinmai signature: azuki, matcha jelly, shiratama & matcha cake. The staff are all 😊 smiles.
I love this place ! I'm not going for the Matcha, I'm sure it's good tho, but I'm going there for the vanilla ice cream who's AWESOME ! & the employees are very nice !
Lovely place in Montreal🫶🏻
Great matcha snacks🍵 on McKay & St. Catherine, downtown location
cakes, ice-cream & drinks

Love their drinks & desserts. Their zanmai signature ice cream has a lot of toppings inside such as azuki beans & matcha jelly. They're all pretty good & the combination is very fun to eat.
The place is very small & there aren't many seats.
Great place for matcha lovers. I usually order their iced matcha latte with no sugar & add two pumps of mango syrup, & it tastes amazing. It's refreshing & perfectly balanced. Their matcha ice cream is really good too, definitely worth trying if you like matcha.
Matcha icecream is great. This place is a total ripoff of Tsjuri (menu & its layout looks identical). The matcha'cheesecake' is actually mousse & tastes like bitter lime-it was disappointing & not worth the 7$+ price due to its small size & taste

No words could even describe how much I love this spot. The matcha there is really REALLY good, as a japanese person I can guarantee that it's the best place to get any matcha desserts or drinks! The food is not too sweet at all, the ice cream is always soooo good, the price is a little high but pretty much expected for the quality of the matcha & the treats. Very friendly staff, very nice ambiance, sometimes a little crowded but it's fine. Good spot for matcha enjoyers or for people who never tasted matcha, I always recommend this place to everyone!!🩷❤?🧡
I'm a regular at this place, the ice cream is delicious - big fan of the matcha ice cream with matcha cake (#17). I also highly recommend their mochi matcha, matcha cookies & chocolate matcha cookies with sea salt (trust me they are delicious).
The matcha latte is also amazing, just don't expect it to be extra sweet, if you have been drinking matcha for a while it will be great, if not I suggest to add a sweetener.
The service is also great, they are polite & friendly ☺?
Phenomenal ice cream & customer service, we visited about x4 within 2 days. The ice cream ACTUALLY tastes like matcha, The flavour of the matcha is strong, rich & earthy, not too sweet. The ice cream is smooth & just melts in your mouth, & the toppings…😩😩😩 I got the signature parfait everytime & the mochi, cake, jelly & red bean went together so well. The only thing is that seating is very limited & the location is very busy so beware, other than that we loved this place so much we would find every opportunity to hit it up during our short trip💚

If you're a matcha lover, this place is a must-visit! Their matcha latte is smooth, rich, & perfectly balanced, with that authentic earthy flavor that real matcha should have. You can really taste the quality of the matcha they use. I also tried their matcha ice cream, & wow - absolutely delicious! Creamy, not overly sugary, & packed with real matcha flavor. It's refreshing & satisfying without feeling heavy.
You can tell they use high-quality ingredients & know what they're doing. Definitely one of the best spots for real matcha in town. Highly recommend!
