Review Summary

Reviews for RAKU paint a small, cozy Japanese spot where the menu shines with crispy chicken katsu, pork katsu, karaage, curry, takoyaki, yakisoba and yak udon, all described as authentic, flavorful and well priced; the curry sauce and comforting combinations are repeatedly praised, with portions deemed generous and value strong; many mention fast service and a warm, attentive staff, plus a simple, appealing ambience that makes it a reliable go to for takeout or dine in, including late nights; a few note price increases on pork katsu which some feel hurt value and loyalty, while others still praise the overall quality and variety and would return to try more items.

Cari was delicious! The pork & chicken were crispy while moist inside. The prices are so affordable. I would definitely go back!

I had pork katsu curry & takoyaki. They were authentic, very tasty & reasonably priced. I'll definitely go back & try other things. I did a takeout so I don't know about dining experience.

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 🇨🇷

The curry katsu here is delicious! As well their service is great. I ordered: Curry udon TonKatsu with curry The curry here is a must its great. Not only that the pork kastu i got was so crispy & it goes so well with the curry. I wish they had a bit more curry though i felt it wasn't enough ti go with the rice. Other than that i recommend coming here!

A small & quaint place serving delicious Japanese dishes. I had the pork Katsu, a crispy AF pork cutlets over rice, served with an addicting savoury sauce & salad with some pickled radishes. The only issue I had was that I went during one of the hottest days of the year, & they basically just left the door open, with minimal or no air conditioning, pleading for a breeze to blow in. I'll go back, but next time hopefully it won't be a sweltering hell of a day.

the food was honestly just fine, it wasn't outstanding by any means but wasn't bad either, although i did find the pork to be quite dry. we came on a weekday lunch & were very surprised to find ourselves alone there, there was only one staff member & he didn't look too pleased to be there, interactions were very brief & felt tense. since the restaurant is located on a somewhat remote street, we felt quite awkward to be the only ones there with a guy that didn't seem happy at all. overall, it wasn't bad, the service could've been better, i personally don't think i'd return.

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!
