If you ever need a guaranteed hangover cure, this is the place. I came in desperate for something warm & hearty, & the chicken curry delivered 100%. Rich flavor, amazing portion size, & it hit the spot so hard it practically brought me back to life. 10/10 comfort food, I'll definitely be back!

EXQUISITE!
This was an absolutely exquisite experience from start to finish. I ordered the curry pork & takoyaki, my mom had the tonkatsu, & every dish was unbelievably delicious - deeply flavorful, perfectly balanced, & cooked to perfection. Every bite was rich, comforting, & incredibly satisfying.

The food arrived impressively fast, yet the quality never felt rushed. You can truly taste the care, precision, & passion in the cooking. The service was just as outstanding: warm, attentive, & genuinely welcoming, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.

From the incredible taste & beautiful presentation to the efficiency & hospitality, everything was flawless. We loved every single bite & left completely impressed. I'm honestly just sad I don't live in Montreal - I would be here all the time!

DELICIOUS. Congratulations on such amazing food & service.

With love from Costa Rica 🇨🇷

I came here because I was craving some comfort food. I must say that their Karaage don really hit the spot. I truly enjoyed the fried chicken, as well as the egg & rice!

Simple but delicious Japanese rice dishes, Raku is the place to go if you're craving comfort food. We came by close to closing time so they ran out of chicken karaage. The service could be better as the restaurant was full & there were only 2 people taking orders & cooking. I feel bad because they had to also take care of deliveries on their own.

If you are looking for a good value comfort food that opens late on weekdays. Raku is your best choice! 🌟📌Curry Pork with Rice The sweet & relatively mild flavour of curry served on a bed of white rice. The pork cutlet is crispy outside but tender inside. My favourite dish from Raku. 📌Garlic Soy Chicken Wings Lip-smacking decent Korean chicken wings!
