Review Summary

RAKU is described as a small, cozy Japanese spot where diners enjoy authentic, well priced dishes such as Tonkotsu ramen, Yakisoba, Katsudon, pork katsu curry, takoyaki, and karaage don. Reviews praise the pork and chicken for a crispy exterior and moist interior, and the curry sauce is highlighted as rich and comforting, with portions generous and prices fair. Service is described as warm and attentive, with friendly staff and a welcoming ambience that many feel suits the place, and the music is noted as fitting the vibe. Some comments note a recent price increase on pork katsu that disappointed loyal customers, and a few critiques mention fatty portions, ordinary rice or sauce in some dishes, or dishes arriving cold. Overall, the consensus is that the food is delicious and affordable, prompting many to say they would return to RAKU.

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 🇨🇷

Authentic tasting Japanese home favorites including donburi & curry. I don't have any complaints about the food & experience as well as the value, my only recommendation is to put the takoyaki on a plate instead of bowl so they dont get soggy on the bottom ;) thanks for the katsu & oyakodon!
