Review Summary

Ohayo Café appears as a cute, cozy Japanese inspired spot with a calm, bright atmosphere, plants and friendly service. The menu blends cafe drinks with authentic Japanese dishes and is often praised for flavor and execution, from ramen, mazemen and soba to karaage, katsu don, ebi burger, dorayaki and tamago sando. Drinks like hojicha latte, sesame latte, matcha latte and yuzu lemonade receive strong praise, with notes of bold sesame and refreshing citrus. Several items stand out, especially the ebi burger, miso banana bread, and the dorayaki, while a few reviewers mention some dishes can be rich or not for every palate and hours could be clearer. The ambience and staff are repeatedly highlighted as welcoming, making it a go to for a casual visit or weekend treat, though a couple of comments mention price and occasional noise or service inconsistencies. Overall, Ohayo Café is seen as a distinctive Japanese cafe offering quality coffee and inventive comfort foods in a friendly setting, leaving many eager to return and try more.

Really impressed by Ohayo Café. As someone from Japan, I'm picky about dashi in noodle soups, & their soba broth was excellent. The flavors were balanced & authentic. The dorayaki was fresh & soft, & the coffee was also great.

Great Japanese café with quality food. Definitely worth a visit.

The cold noodles I ordered was nicely presented & delicious. There seemed like very little broth at first, but there was just enough for the portion of noodles, though I would've preferred the ability to dip my noodles in a smaller vessel via the traditional way. A minor complaint: I discovered the spice powder AFTER I had finished my noodles because it was hidden BEHIND the bowl & out of my line of sight. Also, the napkin they gave me with the bowl was partially dampened with water. I found it odd that the dish itself was thoughtfully presented, yet they couldn't use the same attention to detail in the accoutrements. A small yet annoying flub.

I went here yesterday &, overall, enjoyed my experience. The cafe is nice, with many people coming in & out. It's a nice place to sit down with a friend or by yourself if you want to pretend to work (but secretly watch people outside). I was here with a few friends & we shared the noodle dish with braised lamb & the Katsu Sando. The noodles were really nice, dressed with a very delicious sauce. However, the lamb was a bit dry for my taste. The Katsu Sando was pretty big, but I wasn't a fan of the horseradish/mustard dressing. I thought the flavor was too strong. The service was courteous, but I didn't feel the warmth of a small place which is usually typical in Montreal, where you can chat with the people working there & learn a bit more about the neighborhood or the restaurant.

Hotaru Ika Mazemen 🦑 Have to say I'm so happy I was finally able to try this amazing season ingredient. These baby squid have been on my hit list for a while & so has @ohayocafemtl since they've opened. . Located on Mont-Royal street in one of MTL biggest food scene sit a amazing little Japanese resto serving up delicious bits for both Brunch & Lunch for all who walk by. . Because I live to far, as I normally do I had to check out a couple of there staples & some specials. First, something I've always wanted to try which was there shrimp burger, end to end delicious & crunchy, great amount of sauce & spice, perfect in every bite. That along with those fries & yuzu Mayo a easy 10/10. . Next we tried there Lamb Mazemen which was a special they were having, great texture for the noodles, amazing portion of Confit lamb that was supper fall apart tender, good amount of heat & another banger. . Last & something I was most excited to try was the Baby Squid Mazemen, almost gave me a little carbonara style vibes because the ramen tasted a little thick & Cheese which I loved, tied with the freshness of the shisho herbs & spicy really tied together the dish extremely well. But I can see how it's not going to be for everyone, some of the baby squids texture is left to be acquired to some, personally I loved it! FOODGASMIC 🦑
