Overall, Ohayo Café is described as a cute, calm Japanese inspired spot with friendly staff, bright lighting, and quick service, offering a range of dishes from ebi burger and tamago sando to ramen and karaage, along with drinks like hojicha latte and yuzu lemonade, and while the atmosphere and quality are repeatedly praised, some dishes receive mixed reactions, such as the chicken burger whose toppings fell flat and the katsu sando that some found overly bread heavy or poorly balanced; several reviews highlight the authenticity of flavors, fresh ingredients, and inventive drinks, making it a reliable choice for a taste of Japan in Montreal, though a few mention small spaces, occasional noise, and pricing as points to consider.
We wouldn't recommend or go back. Coffee was pretty good, but the food was disappointing even though it was well presented. Ebi burger was subpar & flavours weren't balanced. It was also served with iceberg lettuce that was so wilted that I had to take it out of the sandwich. Tamago sando was also subpar (& not really a sandwich) & didn't taste like the egg salad they serve in Japan. Katsu sandwich was alright with a decent size pork chop but nothing special flavour wise. Overall, pretty expensive for what it is & a lot of the dishes could be improved.
Belle place pour prendre un déjeuner ou café. Le repas est frais. Mon coup de coeur est le burger. Il y a une belle ambiance & le service est courtois & efficace

Ohayo Café offers a unique dining experience where customers order at the counter & are then served at the table. My recent visit left me thoroughly impressed, & here's why: Hojicha latte - The perfect harmony between the fragrant hojicha tea & creamy milk creates a delightful blend. Ebi (shrimp) Burger - Upon cutting it in half, you're greeted by generous chunks of succulent shrimp nestled within the patty. Each bite bursts with flavor, showcasing the freshness & quality of the ingredients. It's a must-try. Burrata Mazemen - Delicious, but be warned that it can be a bit heavy if enjoyed solo.
Easily accessible place on the Mont Royal Avenue, steps away from the metro station. The food was disappointing & below average, I didn't like the chicken burger at all as the chicken felt undercooked. This place is kind of a resto café but I think it's better to go there for just a coffee. When the place is crowded the noise is unbearable.
This month's new crush is this spot! This spot MUST be on your list. They serve a delicate menu of delicious & unique Japanese dishes. It's the new hot spot on the Plateau because it's often full during the weekend. All the dishes were full of flavors, nice portion & fresh. ✨MUST TRY THE FRIES! Thank me later ❤️ This post showcases : 🍤 Shrimp burger 🍗 Chicken burger 🍜 Vegan ramen (we added an extra egg).
So full of flavors, well balanced, I took the chicken burger, made me so full, enjoyed every bites! Lot of customers in house, been a little tricky to find a big table for 6 but was not a big issue after all, will definitely come back!
Love this new little resto-café! The food was so delicious, rich & filling. Highly recommend the shrimp burger & the ramen! Their coffee was also good. Just a heads up, if you're planning to go on the weekend, either go before noon or later in the afternoon due to limited seating capacity. Really enjoyed our first visit overall & will definitely be back!
Excellente nourriture. Je conseille le burger au poulet avec frites. Café de qualité. Par contre, on a attendu notre commande 30mins & le premier caissier ne parlait pas français.
