The best & most authentic Izakaya vibe Montreal. Always have a good time here & I've been here ever since it's opening probably 10 years ago. Service food drinks are great & fairly priced for that level of quality.View more

Really enjoyed this place the first time I visited. Came back about a year later (present day 2024) & I felt like the food didn't hit the same. Most of our skewers were quite bland & under seasoned, served just lukewarm & not hot. Our favourite bite we had were the smelts, where they were charred to a good level & had good flavors. Most of our skewers were low on the char level- I'm not sure if they grill it long enough? We also ordered the truffle karaage, which was also nothing much to write about. We went on a Friday night so I don't imagine it just being an "off" day for the kitchen. Not sure if I would give this place another chance in the future. I do appreciate the late hours of the Izakaya though. Service was okay, the lighting is a little dark & it gets quite loud. Washroom was passable. It's a single tiny stall.View more

Went to every single izakaya in the area, like Tempura Kyoudai & Biru Biru. This place blows them all out of the water. Skewers are reasonably priced, they know how to make a good chuhai (though I would ask for extra shochu on the side). Service is good, atmosphere is good. Reminds me of actual izakayas that I frequented in Japan. Kitchen closes at 1130 & last drink is at 1230.View more

Izakaya with great atmosphere. Great cocktails & skewers. The truffle dishes & cocktails are a bit gimmicky & I don't see the point of adding truffle to them. The skewers we got were also slightly cold. Overall still a great place to chill with friends late at night.View more

The restaurant was pretty busy & the environment seemed fast-paced, but the service & food were excellent. The dishes are small & inexpensive & there is also a lot of variety, so it's a great opportunity to try multiple dishes. Lastly, the ambiance is exactly what we were hoping for in an izakaya restaurant. This is a great place to eat & have some drinks!View more

As with all reviews, personal preference & dining experience weighs heavily. Having lived in Japan, we have a baseline but also adjust expectations to 1) How is the flavor? 2) Is it fresh? 3) Is it clean For our taste, we were a bit disappointed. We were excited to experience Otto Yakitori Izakaya but it just wasn't for us. The meat (meatballs & steak) had an odd taste, the karaage was bland, & the "tiger shrimp" seemed regular.View more

I lived in Japan for years & this reminds me of many of the Izakaya. However they are super casual which I like but too casual a little, many people were in there & they seemed rushed but helpful. It was the end of the night so it was last call for the kitchen. The menu was a little expensive but some things were so good some were bad.View more

The yakitori was great, & definitely a good drinking spot-seems very reserved after 7PM, but the dishes lack an oomph to actual Japanese food or Izakayas in Japan. The interior design is great though. The yakitori might've needed more sauce, only salt to taste on it, & the gyuudon sauce tastes a little too similar yakitori sauce. The lamb skewers were very good, not fatty compared to other shops here. Hot tea was just Oolong who like hot drinks btw.View more

I was really happy to see that there is an izakaya here in Montreal, which I totally didn’t expect, especially with food being this good! We enjoyed everything we ordered but definitely get the Chicken Karaage, which I call Japanese style fried chicken as a Taiwanese. They open pretty late too, so it’s a perfect place for late night hangouts!View more
