My last restaurant visit on my roadtrip to Montreal after a floor New York. I had the seared Taylor seared tuna & it was great. I had a Japanese soda with floating balls. They didn't have takoyaki but a side salad with squid. The atmosphere was great & the ladies who served me were fantastic. It was better than the Japanese places in Pensacola. I don't know when I'll be back in Montreal but I'll try to head there again.View more

Ordered a mix of Japanese yakitori skewers. Delicious but the best was the chicken skin! Would definitely go back. A good option if you re looking for a snack or something to go with a cold beer in a park. -- Update 2024 Went back for a proper sit down meal. Everything was still as good as the way I remembered the skewers were the stars of the night. So much choice for the skewers. still a definite must try in Montreal.View more

Excellent yakitori. As good as I have had in Japan. Would recommend for Japanese in the city.View more

Excellent cuisine if you want to try other than sushi in a japanese restaurant. The calamari, the ribs, the liver, & the eel were my favorites.View more

Good to experience Japanese culture in Montreal. I recommend going with a group of 4-6 to try as the food is not your common food you eat daily. The quality is good. The service was not the best.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

Impeccable food, service & Japanese bar atmosphere! It was a recomendation to visit the resto & I do not regret! In the evening, it was full & many Asian-origin customers, which is a goid sign. It doesn't happen often these days to find a reasonable price- quality ratio place where people know what a tasty, flavourful food is. The menu is extensive! I really enjoyed tataki octopus & wasabi cold grilled macrel & grilled squid. Was not sure about the yakitori set - grilled & fried various parts of chicken on a skewer. The Japanese cheesecake & fried tea ice-cream were delish! Will come back to pick up other goodies on the menu!View more

The ambiance & the food are juste magnificent, one of the best japanese flavour in town. We went there after 11 pm & ordered a bunch. The waiting time was around 10mins. But one thing to note is that they don't serve main meals (don rice or ramen) after 11 pm. Also, if you want to order yakitori, don't order a bunch of them in one shot, it's better to order a small plate & then finish it before order another one , otherwise the yakitoris will get cold very quickly & the flavor will be seriously compromised.View more

Okay. This might be the best yakitori I've had in North America thus far. LOL.
Each yakitori was simple & perfectly cooked. They not only managed to recreate the seasonings & simple marinades but also the exact smokey, charcoal taste.
The squid was also the best squid I've ever had, & I dont even like squid that much ; it wasn't overly chewy & perfectly tender.
Okay but Im also SO glad I got the Truffle Karage. It was the perfect fusion of French & Japanese cuisine. The karage was perfectly fried & its marinade was subtle enough to complement the non-overwhelming amount of truffle oil.
As my bf says : "Yakitori & mac miller? What else can u ask for?" (The music was fuego)View more

Chicken was not cooked through. Felt sick the night & day after. Uni steam egg was laughable. Have you tasted it yourself? Have you tasted it anywhere in Japan, even those cheap breakfast joins? I guess not. Squid was heavily covered with starch & overcooked. Run by Chinese, not Japanese. Nothing wrong with Chinese chef cooking Japanese food ONLY IF YOU ACTUALLY LEARNED COOKING FROM A LEGIT JAPANESE! Otherwise, it's just not authentic.

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
