Osmo X Marusan occupe un espace souterrain distinct défini par une esthétique industrielle et une atmosphère animée et résonnante. Le menu met en avant des en-cas d'inspiration japonaise comme le karaage croustillant et les sandwichs katsu savoureux accompagnés de tamago délicat. Une sélection de lattes au matcha et au hojicha propose des profils de thé profonds et terreux qui équilibrent les textures marquées des plats. L'établissement intègre une vaste terrasse extérieure qui contraste avec le design intérieur moderne et fermé. Des sélections musicales vibrantes remplissent l'espace, contribuant à l'environnement dynamique qui définit ce lieu de rencontre singulier. Ces éléments se combinent pour créer une expérience unique où l'architecture minimaliste rencontre des profils de saveurs traditionnels dans un cadre peu conventionnel.
Osmo X Marusan est un lieu très populaire au design unique à Montréal, mêlant une esthétique industrielle rappelant un bunker à une atmosphère sociale et animée. Les clients louent régulièrement la qualité exceptionnelle du matcha, des lattés au hojicha et du menu d'inspiration japonaise, notamment les divers sandwichs et plats de cari. Bien que beaucoup trouvent l'environnement parfait pour travailler ou socialiser, d'autres notent que l'espace peut devenir très bruyant et fréquenté, avec parfois des DJ qui ne conviennent pas à ceux cherchant le calme. Les avis sur le service et la constance de la nourriture sont partagés, certains trouvant les plats frais et délicieux tandis que d'autres les jugent fades ou les temps d'attente trop longs. Dans l'ensemble, l'endroit est considéré comme une destination branchée et mémorable pour ceux qui apprécient une expérience de café dynamique et artistique.
This cafe was right beside where I was staying in Montreal, so I had to try it out. I was so pleasantly surprised - it is such a vibe! It's quite obvious which items are the most popular, including the egg sandwich which we ordered multiple of. It was certainly delicious, & not something you can order just anywhere!
I also enjoyed all the iced drinks, which came for free with the purchase of a bag of coffee beans.
This place has been on my list for a while & I was finally in the area today, so I thought why not.
It was extremely busy & loud which made it difficult to communicate with staff. I placed my order & it was brought to where I was seated about 15 minutes or so later. It looked absolutely delicious & I love a jammy egg...
... but it barely tasted of anything at all. The bread seems to just be regular American style white bread, & whatever sauce they use is completely flavourless. I don't even know what it was. I can't even compare it to anything because I couldn't identify even a single flavour within. It's trying to be a quirky version of the Japanese style egg sandwich but it's completely unnecessary.
Sitting there, you quickly realize that this is yet another place that exists for vibes, stories, & to blow up online thanks to influencer content - & yeah, I was one of the people influenced, that's why I came here haha. People around me taking tons of photos & selfies & video recordings of themselves trying everything they ordered... which is fine. I took a picture too. But it's clear the food here is made to be Instagrammable over all else.
On the plus side, the coffee was good & the service was warm & friendly. But overall, this place didn't live up to the hype for me personally.
Vibe vraiment cool! Vinyles à vendre, écoute sur place. Matcha de très bonne qualité. Super sandwiches bien garnis & goûteux. Très lumineux malgré le fait que c'est dans un demi sous-sol. Rapport qualité-prix excellent. Beaucoup de places assises à l'intérieur & petite terrasse cute. C'est populaire, alors souvent beaucoup de gens. Service courtois. Endroit très propre.

The building & entrance is hard to spot. There's a nice industrial vibe inside. The matcha is weak & powdery I would not recommend. Coffee was 10/10. The egg sandwich was delicious with deep fried breaded jammy boiled eggs. Keep in mind the kitchen does not open until 11 am if you're going for the sandwich. I would go back for the coffee & egg sandwich.
Cool space & chill vibes (loved the music they were playing)! Delicious sandos! Friendly staff! Came on a Sunday afternoon with two friends, had no issue finding a table. Great first time experience & would love to come back again!
The vibes here are immaculate & I loved my drinks + sando! Such a cute spot to work (though a lot of the seating is social only) & it was super chill in the morning. Gets busy at 11 when the lunch menu comes up but it's worth it!
I only wanted a quick brunch item, so I swung by for the Tamago Sando after a wait of 10 min to order.
I actually liked the industrial vibe of the cafe, matching many of buildings & stations in Montreal, brightened up with the skylights & disco ball. There was more table space than expected from reviews, & I would def come back to work here.
Unfortunately, the Tamago Sando was just okay. It was a bit bland, nothing I'd strongly recommend to others. I didn't try the drinks this time around though.
This fine venue is highly impressive because of the massive number of options it has. There is a great option for every single guest who arrives at the space. The general vibe feels remarkably kind, welcoming, & positive. The staff acts fast & delivers great service. I am fully intending to visit again to see the rest of it.
